Greatsword is a Colossal Sword in Elden Ring. The Greatsword scales primarily with Strength and is a good Weapon for cleaving many foes at once with its wide swings. 

 

A coarse iron lump of an ultra greatsword.
Mows down foes by utilizing its incredible weight.

Though handling it likely requires the wielder to have surpassed the realm of the merely human,
it is precisely for this reason the weapon is used to slaughter even inhuman foes.

      Downright terrifying when infused with Bleed. Combine with Stamp Sweep and you'll proc bleed with one button push at high enough levels of Arcane.

      • Anonymous

        this thing is one of the most if not the most reliable weapons in pvp. Amazing damage, check. Able to be infused with ashes of war, check. One shot set ups possible, check. Massive poise damage that is able to stager you out of pretty much everything, check. Long range, check. One of the best movesets in the game + one of the best attacks in the entire game (crouch poke), check. This weapon isn't a jack of all trades, it is a master of all. One of the most common weapons in pvp, and for good reason.

        • i love that both of the swords in this game that somewhat resemble iconic swords (the other sword is the butchering knife, which looks similar to ichigo's zangetsu from bleach) from anime/manga have people making references in the forums, almost 2 years after the game's release

              Scaling in this game confuses the **** out of me, how standard version out perform the heavy version when it has a higher scaling?

                Alright, I just went over to chest, opened it, nothing there. Reload the area a few times, open it up, still nothing. If this is a joke, I ain’t laughing.

                        Nowadays I see this more than moonveil while invading. Kinda makes my job harder when they poise through my attacks and BONK me with their 50th Lion's Claw L2.

                          Read Berserk. Didn't like it very much. Still using the Greatsword though- because funny. Happy hunting.

                            It's much too big to be called a sword. Massive, thick, heavy and far too rough. Indeed, it' is more like a heap of raw iron.

                              one of the strangest design choices fromsoft made in this game is that if you have a weapon and you like the aow it comes with, but you want to change the infusion, you then have to go and find the ash of war that’s already on the weapon.

                                  Greatsword
                                  Blood affinity for great blood loss build up, something like 122.
                                  Braggart's Roar AoW for the attack power, defence and stamina regen boosts.
                                  BR also changes the charged heavy to a running charge that can stammer human sized enemies and pummel them into the ground.
                                  Use Roar medallion for 15% extra charged heavy damage.
                                  Use Axe talisman for 15% extra charged heavy damage.
                                  Use Lord of Blood Exultation talisman for a 20% attack boost after you proc blood loss (takes one or two hits).
                                  Equip the Highland Axe in your off hand for 10% extra charged heavy damage, but two hand the greatsword.
                                  Use Golden Vow/Flame, Grant Me Strength as a body buff.

                                  All of the above equals one heavy hitting badass. Just apply Braggart's Roar and start using charged heavies to run and smash those in your way, proc blood loss to further boost attack power and do even more charged heavy damage with all the boasts from the axe and the talismans.

                                    This Greatsword Has been in Various other Fromsoft Titled games including Dark Souls 3, idk why everyone’s about “Gut’s build” or whatever the new agenda because it’s the same fricking sword that fromsoft has used in the past.

                                      While I did enjoy making a “Guts” build in thisgame, I find it pretty disrespectful for them not to call this weapon “gut’s Greatsword” or something epic like that for those who don’t get it.

                                        Hey guys I think this might be a reference to the manga/anime beeserk, and ther is also a big sword near castle morn in the ground that could be reference to Gut’s sword I think.

                                                Recommended AoW’s:

                                                Braggart’s Roar - much needed stamina regen plus bonus attack and negation boost. Charged heavys are fun to play with too.

                                                Lion’s Claw/Giant Hunt - both do insane nuke damage with a TON of hyper armor. Mostly interchangeable imo so pick your fave.

                                                Stamp Sweep - typically looked at as a crappy AoW but it shines on this weapon, comes out quick and provides great mixup opportunity.

                                                Cragblade: attack boost plus you will stagger EVERYTHING.

                                                  The classic dark souls “greatsword” . Some people claim the elden ring variation is the worst of all series. However, each variation of the greatsword is quite a bit different. The dark souls 1 and 2 greatsword are like night and day when compared. I think all the greatswords are excellent, and created to reflect the game they’re in. Yes, the elden ring model has an emphasis on sweeping attacks. I think this is well suited to the environment of elden ring, just as the heavy stab was well suited to the greatsword of ds1. Michael zaki always thinks things through when it comes to this weapon

                                                          People compare this with zwei and say zwei does too little damage but I think it's the opposite, this the is the highest damage colossal while being the longest, which makes a weapon like the watchdog greatsword completely outclassed in damage and being much shorter than the guts sword despite it being only 1 weight lighter, to rub salt in the wound the watchdog takes painful amounts of grinding only to get a weapon worse than one you get from a chest you can open at the start of the game.
                                                          I'm not saying the watchdog greatsword is unusable I'm saying that the gutsword is just better in every way that matters.

                                                            I would like to mention one thing about this weapon. If you know anyone who's just starting out with the Souls series. Don't even let them consider a bandit or kitchen knife build. Give them this Greatsword. I started a new run, and quit it 11 hours later. The Greatsword or better said: this entire weapon class, is absolutely broken. If you play solo and without any spirits (as you should beyond your first playthough), and you want an easy balanced run in your favor? Pick any collossal weapon. All encounters against humanoids with heavy armor? Trivialized. You can stunlock them. Want to hybrid a bit? Go for it. Infuse flames on it? You'll be hitting the first bosses with 350-450 per hit. Meanwhile the early dagger builds need a full damage rotation to get those same numbers off.

                                                            Lategame, when things are less prone to be stunlocked, sure, now you actually need to learn how to play. And that dagger build I was making fun off? They know not only how to play, but they outdps you as well. But by that time you are so far in... that you gotta finish that collossal run either way.

                                                              At this point it dosen't even looks like the Berk version. Hell, it's not even as feasible as Dragonslayer, which is an astonishing achievement, it's just a stupid weapon that's too big to be even used by that guy from that loli-harem manga called Berk.

                                                                This weapon has 349 base dmg and an A scaling in strength when heavy infused. The Zweihander has 319 base dmg and also an A scaling, but deals way less dmg than the difference of 30 dmg. Is this a bug? I don't get it.

                                                                • This thing’s base damage is off the charts. You can 3 tap most people with 60 Vigor. Wish actual colossal weapon class got this type of damage, meanwhile this weapon with a solid moveset gets significantly higher damage than the slow colossals… what gives?

                                                                  • Anonymous

Infused Flame Art 31/40/41 (40 Dex + Radagon Icon for max spellcasting speed) combined w/ the Barbaric Roar AoW. The AoW buff/heavy attack combo when further buffed by Millicent's Prosthesis and Flame, Grant Me Strength your damage output just becomes stupid high, as your AR will go well over 1200 when fully buffed.

                                                                    • Anonymous
