# Curved Greatswords # Arced Sword
![]()
### In-Game Description --- *A curved greatsword forged from the soul of the Flexile Sentry. There is something unsettling, and at the same time beautiful, about its long curved blade. The sentry crammed inmates of the overflowing Bastille onto a rickety ship, and cast them out to the open sea. The majority of them drowned or starved, but a few hardy survivors made land to the south, and imparted their knowledge of sorcery to the people there.* ### Availability --- ***Dark Souls 2 & Scholar of the First Sin:*** - Trade Flexile Sentry Soul and 1,500 souls to Straid of Olaphis. ### General Information ---

--- ### Key ---
**Damage:**The Damage stat dictates how much damage the weapon does. The Damage stats for a weapon are A / B / C / D / E: - A is Physical Damage - B is Magical Damage - C is Fire Damage - D is Lightning Damage - E is Dark Damage Each weapon has one or more physical damage types: - Striking - Slashing - Thrusting Certain enemies are weak or strong against different damage types. See Weakness for physical reduction, Resistance for elemental reduction.
**Aux Effect:**The Aux Effect stat dictates how effective the weapon will be at causing the effect. The Aux Effect stats for a weapon are A / B: - A is Poison Effect - B is Bleed Effect
**Counter Strength:**Damage multiplier when hitting an enemy that is performing an action such as attacking. Value of 100 means no extra damage.
**Poise Damage:**The ability of the weapon to break the poise of an enemy.
**Stats Needed:**The Stats Needed determines how high various Stats must be in order to wield the weapon effectively. The stats required for a weapon are A / B / C / D: - A is the Strength required - B is the Dexterity required - C is the Intelligence required - D is the Faith required Wielding a weapon without the required Strength and/or Dexterity will incur a penalty to the Physical damage of the weapon, while lower-than-required Magic and/or Faith will reduce the Magic damage of the weapon. Also keep in mind that your character gains a 100% bonus to Strength by wielding a weapon with both hands, thus reducing the actual Strength required. For example, a character with 14 Strength can wield a Great Club (Requires 28 Strength) properly if the weapon is held with both hands. (14 x 2 = 28)
**Stat Bonuses:**The Stat Bonuses rating indicates the level of bonus damage you do with the weapon, based on the associated Stat. This rating can be S, A, B, C, D, or E (in order from most to least bonus for the associated skill). See Scaling for more information. The Bonus Stats for a weapon are A/B/C/D/E/F: - A is the Strength stat bonus that influences the physical attack of the weapon. - B is the Dexterity stat bonus that influences the physical attack of the weapon. - C is the Intelligence stat bonus that influences the Magical attack of the weapon. - D is the Intelligence and Faith stat bonus that influences the Fire attack of the weapon. - E is the Faith stat bonus that influences the Lightning attack of the weapon. - F is the Intelligence or Faith stat bonus that influence the Dark attack of the weapon(The lower of the two stats is chosen as the bonus stat).
**Damage Reduction:**The Damage Reduction % of the weapon. It dictates how much damage the weapon mitigates while blocking. The Damage Reduction % stats for weapons are A / B / C / D / E : - A is Physical Damage - B is Magical Damage - C is Fire Damage - D is Lightning Damage - E is Dark Damage
**Aux Effect Reduction:**The Aux Effect Reduction % of the weapon. It dictates how much of the effect the weapon mitigates while blocking. The Aux Effect Reduction % stats for a weapon are A / B / C / D: - A is Poison Effect - B is Bleed Effect - C is Petrification Effect - D is Curse Effect
**Stability:**Determines the amount of stamina expended to block an incoming attack. A higher stability also allows you to block stronger attacks without breaking guard and reduces the amount of stamina depleted from blocking attacks.
**Durability:**The durability of the weapon.
**Weight:**The weight of the weapon. Note that carrying over 70% of your Equip Weight will reduce the speed of your rolls, while going over 100% will reduce your regular speed to walking and attempts to roll or backstep will leave you momentarily stunned.
**Enchantable? Items/Spells:**Determines whether or not the weapon can receive a temporary damage buff by items and/or spells. Note that if you decided to infuse the weapon it cannot be enchanted by items.

### Notes --- - Two-handed strong attack shoots gusts of wind that fan out and cover large distances, dealing significant damage. Costs 10 durability to use. - This can be reduced to 5 with the use of a Bracing Knuckle Ring +2. - If the target is hit with the sword during a heavy attack they will take damage from the sword itself and the wind (which is a lot). - The description is taken from the prologue of the first Dark Souls game. ### Upgrades ---

--- ### Key ---
**Damage:**The Damage stat dictates how much damage the weapon does. The Damage stats for a weapon are A / B / C / D / E: - A is Physical Damage - B is Magical Damage - C is Fire Damage - D is Lightning Damage - E is Dark Damage Each weapon has one or more physical damage types: - Striking - Slashing - Thrusting Certain enemies are weak or strong against different damage types. See Weakness for physical reduction, Resistance for elemental reduction.
**Aux Effect:**The Aux Effect stat dictates how effective the weapon will be at causing the effect. The Aux Effect stats for a weapon are A / B: - A is Poison Effect - B is Bleed Effect
**Counter Strength:**Damage multiplier when hitting an enemy that is performing an action such as attacking. Value of 100 means no extra damage.
**Poise Damage:**The ability of the weapon to break the poise of an enemy.
**Stats Needed:**The Stats Needed determines how high various Stats must be in order to wield the weapon effectively. The stats required for a weapon are A / B / C / D: - A is the Strength required - B is the Dexterity required - C is the Intelligence required - D is the Faith required Wielding a weapon without the required Strength and/or Dexterity will incur a penalty to the Physical damage of the weapon, while lower-than-required Magic and/or Faith will reduce the Magic damage of the weapon. Also keep in mind that your character gains a 100% bonus to Strength by wielding a weapon with both hands, thus reducing the actual Strength required. For example, a character with 14 Strength can wield a Great Club (Requires 28 Strength) properly if the weapon is held with both hands. (14 x 2 = 28)
**Stat Bonuses:**The Stat Bonuses rating indicates the level of bonus damage you do with the weapon, based on the associated Stat. This rating can be S, A, B, C, D, or E (in order from most to least bonus for the associated skill). See Scaling for more information. The Bonus Stats for a weapon are A/B/C/D/E/F: - A is the Strength stat bonus that influences the physical attack of the weapon. - B is the Dexterity stat bonus that influences the physical attack of the weapon. - C is the Intelligence stat bonus that influences the Magical attack of the weapon. - D is the Intelligence and Faith stat bonus that influences the Fire attack of the weapon. - E is the Faith stat bonus that influences the Lightning attack of the weapon. - F is the Intelligence or Faith stat bonus that influence the Dark attack of the weapon(The lower of the two stats is chosen as the bonus stat).
**Damage Reduction:**The Damage Reduction % of the weapon. It dictates how much damage the weapon mitigates while blocking. The Damage Reduction % stats for weapons are A / B / C / D / E : - A is Physical Damage - B is Magical Damage - C is Fire Damage - D is Lightning Damage - E is Dark Damage
**Aux Effect Reduction:**The Aux Effect Reduction % of the weapon. It dictates how much of the effect the weapon mitigates while blocking. The Aux Effect Reduction % stats for a weapon are A / B / C / D: - A is Poison Effect - B is Bleed Effect - C is Petrification Effect - D is Curse Effect
**Stability:**Determines the amount of stamina expended to block an incoming attack. A higher stability also allows you to block stronger attacks without breaking guard and reduces the amount of stamina depleted from blocking attacks.
**Durability:**The durability of the weapon.
**Weight:**The weight of the weapon. Note that carrying over 70% of your Equip Weight will reduce the speed of your rolls, while going over 100% will reduce your regular speed to walking and attempts to roll or backstep will leave you momentarily stunned.
**Enchantable? Items/Spells:**Determines whether or not the weapon can receive a temporary damage buff by items and/or spells. Note that if you decided to infuse the weapon it cannot be enchanted by items.

--- ### Key ---
**Damage:**The Damage stat dictates how much damage the weapon does. The Damage stats for a weapon are A / B / C / D / E: - A is Physical Damage - B is Magical Damage - C is Fire Damage - D is Lightning Damage - E is Dark Damage Each weapon has one or more physical damage types: - Striking - Slashing - Thrusting Certain enemies are weak or strong against different damage types. See Weakness for physical reduction, Resistance for elemental reduction.
**Aux Effect:**The Aux Effect stat dictates how effective the weapon will be at causing the effect. The Aux Effect stats for a weapon are A / B: - A is Poison Effect - B is Bleed Effect
**Counter Strength:**Damage multiplier when hitting an enemy that is performing an action such as attacking. Value of 100 means no extra damage.
**Poise Damage:**The ability of the weapon to break the poise of an enemy.
**Stats Needed:**The Stats Needed determines how high various Stats must be in order to wield the weapon effectively. The stats required for a weapon are A / B / C / D: - A is the Strength required - B is the Dexterity required - C is the Intelligence required - D is the Faith required Wielding a weapon without the required Strength and/or Dexterity will incur a penalty to the Physical damage of the weapon, while lower-than-required Magic and/or Faith will reduce the Magic damage of the weapon. Also keep in mind that your character gains a 100% bonus to Strength by wielding a weapon with both hands, thus reducing the actual Strength required. For example, a character with 14 Strength can wield a Great Club (Requires 28 Strength) properly if the weapon is held with both hands. (14 x 2 = 28)
**Stat Bonuses:**The Stat Bonuses rating indicates the level of bonus damage you do with the weapon, based on the associated Stat. This rating can be S, A, B, C, D, or E (in order from most to least bonus for the associated skill). See Scaling for more information. The Bonus Stats for a weapon are A/B/C/D/E/F: - A is the Strength stat bonus that influences the physical attack of the weapon. - B is the Dexterity stat bonus that influences the physical attack of the weapon. - C is the Intelligence stat bonus that influences the Magical attack of the weapon. - D is the Intelligence and Faith stat bonus that influences the Fire attack of the weapon. - E is the Faith stat bonus that influences the Lightning attack of the weapon. - F is the Intelligence or Faith stat bonus that influence the Dark attack of the weapon(The lower of the two stats is chosen as the bonus stat).
**Damage Reduction:**The Damage Reduction % of the weapon. It dictates how much damage the weapon mitigates while blocking. The Damage Reduction % stats for weapons are A / B / C / D / E : - A is Physical Damage - B is Magical Damage - C is Fire Damage - D is Lightning Damage - E is Dark Damage
**Aux Effect Reduction:**The Aux Effect Reduction % of the weapon. It dictates how much of the effect the weapon mitigates while blocking. The Aux Effect Reduction % stats for a weapon are A / B / C / D: - A is Poison Effect - B is Bleed Effect - C is Petrification Effect - D is Curse Effect
**Stability:**Determines the amount of stamina expended to block an incoming attack. A higher stability also allows you to block stronger attacks without breaking guard and reduces the amount of stamina depleted from blocking attacks.
**Durability:**The durability of the weapon.
**Weight:**The weight of the weapon. Note that carrying over 70% of your Equip Weight will reduce the speed of your rolls, while going over 100% will reduce your regular speed to walking and attempts to roll or backstep will leave you momentarily stunned.
**Enchantable? Items/Spells:**Determines whether or not the weapon can receive a temporary damage buff by items and/or spells. Note that if you decided to infuse the weapon it cannot be enchanted by items.

--- ### Key ---
**Damage:**The Damage stat dictates how much damage the weapon does. The Damage stats for a weapon are A / B / C / D / E: - A is Physical Damage - B is Magical Damage - C is Fire Damage - D is Lightning Damage - E is Dark Damage Each weapon has one or more physical damage types: - Striking - Slashing - Thrusting Certain enemies are weak or strong against different damage types. See Weakness for physical reduction, Resistance for elemental reduction.
**Aux Effect:**The Aux Effect stat dictates how effective the weapon will be at causing the effect. The Aux Effect stats for a weapon are A / B: - A is Poison Effect - B is Bleed Effect
**Counter Strength:**Damage multiplier when hitting an enemy that is performing an action such as attacking. Value of 100 means no extra damage.
**Poise Damage:**The ability of the weapon to break the poise of an enemy.
**Stats Needed:**The Stats Needed determines how high various Stats must be in order to wield the weapon effectively. The stats required for a weapon are A / B / C / D: - A is the Strength required - B is the Dexterity required - C is the Intelligence required - D is the Faith required Wielding a weapon without the required Strength and/or Dexterity will incur a penalty to the Physical damage of the weapon, while lower-than-required Magic and/or Faith will reduce the Magic damage of the weapon. Also keep in mind that your character gains a 100% bonus to Strength by wielding a weapon with both hands, thus reducing the actual Strength required. For example, a character with 14 Strength can wield a Great Club (Requires 28 Strength) properly if the weapon is held with both hands. (14 x 2 = 28)
**Stat Bonuses:**The Stat Bonuses rating indicates the level of bonus damage you do with the weapon, based on the associated Stat. This rating can be S, A, B, C, D, or E (in order from most to least bonus for the associated skill). See Scaling for more information. The Bonus Stats for a weapon are A/B/C/D/E/F: - A is the Strength stat bonus that influences the physical attack of the weapon. - B is the Dexterity stat bonus that influences the physical attack of the weapon. - C is the Intelligence stat bonus that influences the Magical attack of the weapon. - D is the Intelligence and Faith stat bonus that influences the Fire attack of the weapon. - E is the Faith stat bonus that influences the Lightning attack of the weapon. - F is the Intelligence or Faith stat bonus that influence the Dark attack of the weapon(The lower of the two stats is chosen as the bonus stat).
**Damage Reduction:**The Damage Reduction % of the weapon. It dictates how much damage the weapon mitigates while blocking. The Damage Reduction % stats for weapons are A / B / C / D / E : - A is Physical Damage - B is Magical Damage - C is Fire Damage - D is Lightning Damage - E is Dark Damage
**Aux Effect Reduction:**The Aux Effect Reduction % of the weapon. It dictates how much of the effect the weapon mitigates while blocking. The Aux Effect Reduction % stats for a weapon are A / B / C / D: - A is Poison Effect - B is Bleed Effect - C is Petrification Effect - D is Curse Effect
**Stability:**Determines the amount of stamina expended to block an incoming attack. A higher stability also allows you to block stronger attacks without breaking guard and reduces the amount of stamina depleted from blocking attacks.
**Durability:**The durability of the weapon.
**Weight:**The weight of the weapon. Note that carrying over 70% of your Equip Weight will reduce the speed of your rolls, while going over 100% will reduce your regular speed to walking and attempts to roll or backstep will leave you momentarily stunned.
**Enchantable? Items/Spells:**Determines whether or not the weapon can receive a temporary damage buff by items and/or spells. Note that if you decided to infuse the weapon it cannot be enchanted by items.
