Old Knight Hammer is a weapon in Dark Souls 2.
An undated great hammer.
Wielded by a warrior from a time so ancient that there exists no record of his endeavors.
Has extremely low durability
Sometimes, just as a thing falls to pieces, it unleashes its last flash of great power...
Acquired From
- Dropped by Old Knight enemies.
- This item is located in a chest inside Drangleic Castle. After the Double Dragonrider boss, head down the stairs just past the bonfire. You'll come to a small vertical room with what looks like a pillar rising up the centre. Climb the ladder to the right of the door. Once at the top, you'll come to a room filled with the stone knights. There is a door to the right of the room, just through here is two chests. The one on the right contains the hammer.
Hints and Tips:
- Upgraded with regular Titanite. Cannot be infused with Bleed.
- The hammer attacks very similar to the Large Club, or Great Club from Dark Souls 1.
- When two-handing the hammer and fighting smaller enemies, it is recommended to use the R2/RT rather than the R1/RB as the first strong attack is quick and vertical, whereas the first normal attack is horizontal, and capable of passing over foes.
- Does more poise damage than a normal Great Hammer.

Anybody have any idea how this is with mundane? I'm about 30 in each stat and I was considering this since it doesn't have scaling
- Anonymous
Wouldn't put raw. No scaling but high infusion damage. Great starter weapon with dark infusions. Bracing knuckle 0 - +2, stone ring (for making light attack more deadly), if needed soldiers or dragon ring for sheild builds. Very light in comparison to other great weapon. Sometimes, just as a thing falls to peices, it unleashes its last flash of great power....

The description says there is a chest that has the great hammer but I have a question I don’t have ds2 yet and I want to farm old knights as soon as I can can I get tips

"dragonslayer duo" i believe there is only one ornstein and you dont even fight him in the castle its the duo dragonriders

It does drop in sotfs, i just got it. If you're serious about farming like i was, you can save scum farm (using ps+ cloud save feature). Make a save, run thru the area killing stuff, if you get no drops download your save n try again. Save if you get a drop, rinse n repeat. I do it like this because of the nonsense that is enemy despawns and i refuse to mess with company of champions low ass drop rate and I'm not at a point where ascetics are readily available. It may take a bit longer but you can really make rng your bitch like this.

Do the knights actually drop them in SotFS? I've been farming them for 20+ hours with appropriate gear, got plenty of cracked blue eyes, armor pieces and palestones, but not a single hammer was ever dropped.
I use this for my dexterity build for smashing those crystal lizard
