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.

      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.

        I’ve slaughtered many casual “guts” over the years with this beauty, while being named “Gatsu” (real pronunciation). This, canonically, means I am the real guts….

              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

                  I’ve slaughtered many casual “guts” over the years with this beauty, while being named “Gatsu” (real pronunciation). This, canonically, means I am the real guts….

                        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?

                                  This weapon is doing startlingly well on my Quality/FTH fire build. 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.

                                    "Found in Caelid, Dragonbarrow. North-west to the Caelem Ruins Site of Grace, inside the chest in the back of the Carriage guarded by Giant Dogs." It's nowhere near Dragonbarrow, take that part out.

                                      Am i the only one that finds it irksome that the charged R2s of this weapon can't ragdoll enemies like it could in the previous games? I feel that getting a gigantic 8ft long sharp metal lump of a sword slammed into you full-force should atleast knock you flat on your ass

                                        I'm trying a Strength/Faith build with this weapon. Flame Art Lion's Claw with this Greatsword is wonderful. Fast and hit like a truck.
                                        Left hand is for black flame incants with the Godslayer's seal.

                                            This thing is downright maniacal when paired with Barbaric Roar. Get a nice boost to your already disgustingly high AR, combined with the 4-hit heavy attack combo turns you into a absolute machine of death

                                              This and the Warped Axe are the only two weapons that have different scaling between flame art and sacred affinities. Both slightly favors strength in flame art.

                                                I don't understand why you can't just buy this (and some other weapons such as Banished Knight Sword & shield) from Hewg or Ijı.

                                                  Never in my life did i think I would be disappointed by how strong a weapon is. It just makes all the other strength weapons feel worthless. I was so excited to see watchdog greatsword with an S in strength, only to find it's worse than this in every way. Why Elden Ring?

                                                    I really miss the vertical 2-handed swings from the other games so much, the clumsy horizontal swings it's stuck with now don't take advantage of its reach anywhere near as well, not to mention they really felt like your character was really putting some real force into it slamming the massive blade down, whereas the swings it has in this game look almost like your character is struggling to even swing it and is on the verge of spraining themselves any second

                                                        Good on the people who still like this weapon, but I can't help but find this nowhere near as good as the Ds2 version, it's damage is lower, it's slower, it can't even knock enemies down with it's two-handed heavy/running/jump attacks anymore, and it's moveset is way worse, rather than having the great versatile moveset it had in the previous games the vertical long-reaching 2-hand light attacks that can hit enemies behind you with the backswing and wide golf-swing heavy attacks that can send enemies flying, and horizontal 1-hand light attacks that are great for groups of mobs and vertical 1-hand heavies, whereas in this game literally every move other than the crouching, rolling attacks and jumping heavies are all stupid clumsy horizontal swings which don't take advantage of the reach at all, and the heavy attacks are god-awful with poor reach, insanely slow recovery and can't even knock things down.
                                                        Look how they massacred my boy.

                                                          I leveled endurance so high I could dual-wield these. Could I have just used the radahn greatsword, yes. Could I have done better investing my stats differently, yes. Did I die a lot because of it, yes. Do I care, NO. Because I had fun.

                                                            Imagine making a frost knight guide and at the end saying "you can apply frost status effect with this build but it's not really the focus." LMFAO

                                                              A great candidate for the stamp ashes of war. the super high AR combined with the long reach really offset the shortcomings.

                                                                I never liked using this weapon before, but now that I'm doing a purely vigor/strength/endurance build with a greatshield and medium/heavy armor, it's quite great. Paired with a greatshield with something like shield crash (which I am using now) you can get strong defense, and the weapon has enough speed compared to slower weapons and enough reach compared to most faster weapons that you can usually catch enemies. The animations are excellent, the damage and stagger are respectable, and the only real downside is its weight more or less.

Lv. 68 (started off as wrench) w/ 40 vig, 20 end, 34 str, and 13 dex so far and it helped my mow down the decaying enzyke w/ the help of shrimps, exalted flesh, and fire grease, with such grace and honor. I love this damn weapon, hoping it takes me far and well in my PvE and hopefully PvP like Claymore journey.

                                                                      But here, in elden ring? It's a damn beast. I've had quite some time maining the greatsword in the trilogy but i can safely say elden ring's greatsword is it's most powerful iteration. On top of all it's previous stats being superior, they added speed to this weapon. Speed! That crouched poke is nigh unpredictable! This beast of a weapon with gravitas is everything you ever need to bulldoze the whole game.

Its cold steely blackened hue is an allusion to Lucifer. All players who use this weapon are agents of the Antichrist. I urge players to use a more holy weapon, like the Troll's Golden Sword. Its blade has 3 sides, representing the Holy Trinity. Its golden hue is an allusion to Christ's majesty. I hope this post has made you reconsider your weapon choice, God be with you.

My stats were Str: 31 Dex: 21 and Faith: 80 which results in either an AR of 872 for Sacred and 854 for Flame Art.

                                                                                        It's not a big difference at all, but it confused me enough to leave a comment here because none of my other weapons have different scaling between the two infusions like the Greatsword does.

No doubt about that, got my greatsword at 930 dmg with bleed cause Im a loser. Put war cry, barbaric roar or lions claw on it and you get some hard hitting special attacks
