Grafted Blade Greatsword is a Colossal Sword in Elden Ring. The Grafted Blade Greatsword scales primarily with Strength, with minor scaling in Dexterity. With its heavy set stats and unique skill, this weapon was built to overcome larger beasts and foes it comes into contact with. This Greatsword can only be wielded by a worthy warrior and will require high Strength stats before it can be used. 

 

The storied sword of Castle Morne. A revenger's weapon, it is burdened with oceans of anger and regret. 
One of the legendary armaments. 

A lone surviving champion from a country now vanished was so determined to continue fighting that he claimed the swords of an entire clan of warriors.

          Have withstood Sword to create many Swords

            hey guys not to be a nerd but the "Endure" part of this skill lasts longer than 1.75 seconds, I'd say it's like 4 seconds atleast

              Made a good str/fai build around this sword. I started off as wretch. Get Godrick's Rune and have it up all the time. Using Oath of Vengeance with the Rune gives you +10 Str right off the bat. Then get the Str tear in your physick for another +10 Str. Talismans could use Starsourge Heirloom and Radagon's scar/soreseal for another +10 Str., totaling +30 in Str when everything is active. Then FGMS and Golden Vow for buffs. Big downside is the sword's weight early game. Could go pure Str and use perfumes for buffs.

                    If you were to have 99 on every stat, would this give you nothing but the poise buff or will they stack +5 on every stat even when they're maxed out?

                      Is it just me or is this thing BUILT to work well with frenzy incantations? The AoW gives you 20 more scaling points for frenzyflame seal since it scales with all attributes, the determination effect can be useful for inescapable frenzy and all the bonus defenses added from the AoW should let you tank and trade with things easier to get incants off.

                        bad weapon overall, it has good damage, but the move set especially for the heavy attack is really not that worth, for not speaking about the lack of range that hurts this weapon over all things.
                        as a tool how ever is really underapreciated, it literally gives you 40 levels for 20 FP, and it last for 60 seconds, a lot of things happens in 60 seconds, and the best part is that the buff stays with you even if you change weapons, so if you know how to hardswap, this weapon is a blessing, especially for hybrid builds like cold infusions, str-int or str-faith.
                        also remember that you only need to have 27 str in order to weild it and use the AoW, if you two hand it of course.

                            I can never get upset from getting killed by this thing in arena. The people who use it are fully aware there are superior options with better aow's, yet they persist for the memes. I respect that

                              The key with this weapon is to pair it with some "budget" fire-and-forget spells/incantations (freezing mist, poison mist, swarm of flies, etc).

                              You won't be burning FP spamming the AoW, and the combo of an AoE status burn plus colossal sword goodness makes for a fun build. The AoW is just the cherry on top to keep you buffed and swinging without having to worry too much about stamina drain.

                                George: i heard you had this ultra greatswords or something alike in almost all your games, so for these colossal swords i designed this for your game. Now, what kind of lore do i build around this weapon?

                                  I am doing a save file where i collect all the legendary armaments and im reaching the end of my collection, but somehow im missing this. I have defeated the Leonid misbegotten and i can travel to the arena, but the weapon is nowhere to be found in my inventory or chest.
                                  Very weird...

                                    I wonder how this would run for int faith strength at level 80-90. I reckon you could run ~19 faith and maybe 20-23 int for various spells. 19 for golden vow and 22 for carian spells and haima spells.

                                      A better skill for this might be an Aoe that disarms opponents while buffing its AR for every weapon stolen.

                                        For balance purposes I understand why it has a B strength scaling, but considering its the swordiest sword that ever sworded, I kinda wish it was A strength D dexterity.

                                          The only thing that isnt amazing about this weapon is that it boosts vigir but doesnt heal you. It sucks using ritual sword or shield talisman with it because you have to waste an estus for them to work if you use the ash of war.

                                            When you get good at hardswapping having this in your inventory on strength builds is invaluable. The ash of war on this not only boosts every stat by 5 it also gives you a longer version of endure. If you want a bit of a boost or need some hyper armor to do a slower attack swapping to this then back to whatever weapon you want can work quite well though only if you are fast at swapping. Its damage is also pretty damn good and is only held back by its short reach.

                                              Do you guys think that this weapon's AoW would benefit a Frenzied Flame Seal in the other hand, given it would receive 40 Rune Levels of boost?

                                                Very underrated weapon. The damage is very high on a strength build with this and the ash is actually very good. The +5 to all stats is great early but does fall off late game but you also get 5 seconds of increased poise. You can just tank through a ton of attacks and with axe talisman andd charge attack physick get off guaranteed heavy attacks.

                                                  Absurdly easy to get (by far the easiest boss that drops a weapon) and doesn't take that long to get enough strength to two hand it. This is one of the better speedrun weapons, especially for a mostly strength build.

                                                    The BMF Sword... Looks good, has a badass story and an amazing skill works faster than Endure, makes it possible to trade with giants and dragons like a savage, not just cast but POISE-CAST a handful of very useful spells like dragon communion incantations to inflict rot and frostbite with ZERO investment. You get a nice little overall buff too.

                                                    • I love this Weapon for PvE, when you meet the requirements the damage is just nasty + the AoW is really great damage wise since the Buff. Also for PvP the rolling r1 is nasty

                                                        The sword itself is lackluster AF especially for a "legendary armament" it's just a boring typical CGS and the greatsword itself is much bette option tbh.

                                                        But the AOW is extremely useful especially in pvp it's like having the godrick GR active for 60 seconds. Those extra stats really pay off well.

When you use its skill and your character gets completely covered up by an entire row of status resistance bars for several seconds as your resistances adjust for your boosted stats. Not a big deal, but it still annoys me.

                                                                      Pair with godricks greatrune for overpowered stats (+defenses).

I paired this was the fingerprint greatshield for my 'Last of the Knights of Plenty' character. This weapon goes very well with the frenzied flame ending imo. Very fun for strength builds overall, even if the weapon art is a bit boring but still neat thematically.

                                                                        • Anonymous

The buff from this affects the character not the weapon and so its a decent buff going into tough fights. It works with the buff from commander oneils spear aswell because while they both apply damage n protection buffs to your character not your weapon they apply it in different ways. The grafted sword increases your stats by 5 which increase your base damage while the rally from oneils spear just increase damage, mix this with a spell "flame grant me strength" n you got 3 very strong buffs, only 60 seconds but it takes my +23 claws from 320 to 580ish AR for some extra damage buff ust use beast roar ash for extra damage and give your heavy attack a combo just like your norm attack. Starting a boss with these 3 buffs + your flask buff and you chopping chunks of health in a few hits. I know the weapons are heavy but the buffs work, just equip em before the boss

                                                                          • Anonymous

Lasts longer than endure. Very useful for early game PvE and low level PvP with the huge stats buff. Two handed, with Radagon's soreseal and starscourge heirloom, you need only 17 str for it.

                                                                            • Anonymous

                                                                                It's ash is impressive at all times, but it is just ugly.
                                                                                When I saw someone using it I thought it was a club of some kind, made to look like a giant, elongated pinecone.


                                                                                If it looked like the claymore hiding under all the grafted blades I might even use it.
                                                                                As it stands, it will forever just be the thing I use to cast Law of Regression on my non-int characters, for the Goldmask quest.

                                                                                  The Oath of Vengeance skill was updated in the 1.07 patch. According to its page, the attribute buff now lasts 60 seconds and the poise buff lasts 5 seconds. It may also prevent stagger from the hemorrhage/frostbite effect.

                                                                                  • I wish buffs to your vigor or mind stats didn't require you to drink a flask immediately after just to take advantage of them. It would make rune arcs less clunky too since you wouldn't have to rest at the grace a second time when throwing yourself at bosses.

                                                                                    • Anonymous

With a kinetic energy required to swing a thing it should rather crash skulls and bones right away making cutting flesh that covers them a mere side effect.
