In-Game Description

Ultra greatsword crafted from the soul
of the Smelter Demon.
Its blade is imbued with a great flame.
Use strong attack to unleash its latent power.

When the old iron king acquired the power to grant life
to heaps of iron, he molded a great array of
metallic automatons. The iron monstrosity itself
was perhaps one of the king's puppets.

Effect: special attack (strong attack)

Availability

Trade Smelter Demon Soul and 1,500 souls with Weaponsmith Ornifex after defeating The Smelter Demon in the Iron King DLC.

Move Set

Single Weapon (right-handed):
1H R1: Overhead strike. Takes an extra step forward on the second attack.
1H R2: Identical to 1H R1 but slower and with longer range. Takes an extra step forward on the second attack.
1H Roll: 360º slash, left to right.
1H Backstep: Vertical strike.

2H R1: Diagonal Slash, shoulder to floor. Left to right then right to left.
2H R2: Overhead strike.
2H Roll: Special animation, lunges the top of the sword into the ground. Short range and about identical damage to a standard attack.
2H Backstep: Takes a step forward then overhead strike.
2H L1: Guard.
2H L2: Parry

Power-stanced R1: Takes a step forward then overhead strike.
Power-stanced R2: Takes two steps forward then overhead strike. Takes longer to regain from than R1.

Notes

• With 99 DEX, STR, INT, FTH and fully upgraded the physical attack is 370+110 and dark attack 130+170
• Warning! Tables below have uninfused weapon scaling A in Dark but infused weapon scaling S in Dark, which seems unlikely. (I've checked it: at +3 with 22 INT and FTH it has +105 uninfused with A scaling, +110 infused with anything but Dark and indeed an S scaling (in Dark), and +184 when infused with Dark and an S scaling. The scaling actually does go up. Further testing needs to be done whether it's worth it going for another infuse or Dark has still the highest damage)
• Appears to have originally been intended to have some relation to the Drakekeeper weapons (Most noticeably the Drakekeeper's Ultra Greatsword and Drakekeeper's Sword.) as all are pitch black and the Drakekeeper's Sword and Ultra Greatsword have similar golden ornamentation on the blades.

Move Set

• Same as the Zweihander.

Notes

• Stamina consumption out-classes other Ultra Greatswords that scale primarily with strength and require dexterity fitting of a strength build (which excludes the Drakewing Ultra Greatsword). Despite its shorter range and high weight (compared to the Zweihander for move-set and weight efficiency on a strength build) , it uses noticeably less stamina than other UGS. It's pretty invaluable to a strength build, with S scaling in strength. Also worth mentioning; it's the only UGS for a strength build to get proper damage output, pure physical damage, and a Zweihander move-set , for less weight than the Smelter Sword and the Greatsword. The Zweihander's extremely manageable weight and amazing range, however, put it in a class all its own for those seeking less stat investment in Strength.

Move Set

Notes

• Two-handed strong attack is replaced by a ranged blast of wind that consumes 10 durability.

• The blast of wind is based off the weapon's physical damage. This means that lower physical damage (for example: infusing the weapon with an elemental infusion) on the weapon will result in lower damage from the wind blast.

• Wings flap open when using the special attack.

Move Set

• The two-handed parry is replaced by a similar counter attack to the 1-H heavy attack.
  • These counters are not safe to spam, as they can be guard broken on reaction, but should rather be used in similar fashion to a parry, predicting the opponent's attacks.

Notes

• This is the only weapon in the game that gains increased stability when it is upgraded.

• Deflects weak attacks when blocking with two hands, like a Greatshield.

• Cannot be enchanted.

In-Game Description

Ultra greatsword of the Ivory King of Eleum Loyce.
Wield it with both hands to realize its full strength.

It is said that the Ivory King was once
the highest ranking knight in his home
of Forossa, famed for its god of war.
After taking his crown, they say he was the
first to swing his sword in times of need,
be it for his homeland or his people.

Availability

Trade the Soul of the Ivory King and 5,000 souls with Weaponsmith Ornifex.

Move Set

Right hand:
1H R1 - Horizontal slash
1H R2 - Overhead slash
2H R1 - Horizontal slash with aura
2H R2 - Aura thrust, then slash
1H Roll - Wide slash
2H Roll - Aura slash upwards to the left
1H Backstep - Slow slash
2H Backstep - Wide aura slash
1H and 2H jumping - forward jump and slash
1H running - slow slash
2H running - same as 2H backstep

Left hand: Same moveset.

Power stanced:

When two handing, the sword's attacks will have a magical aura similar to the Burnt Ivory King's buffed greatsword. (Only when you have high enough stats to use the sword.)

Notes

• Every two handed attack with the sword damages its durability by ten points. This can be lowered down to five with the Bracing Knuckle Ring +2.

• Prior to Calibrations 1.12, you could begin certain swings, then perform a roll cancel, causing the magical aura to hit your opponent while rolling into them. This was fixed by adding a delay before the magical aura appears on certain hits.

• The information in the weapon path tables is actually incorrect, as the Ivory King Ultra Greatsword has innate magic damage.

2H R2: Overhead strike.
2H Roll: Special animation, lunges the top of the sword into the ground. Short range and about identical damage to a standard attack.
2H Backstep: Takes a step forward then overhead strike.
2H L1: Guard.
2H L2: Parry

Power-stanced R1: Takes a step forward then overhead strike.
Power-stanced R2: Takes two steps forward then overhead strike. Takes longer to regain from than R1.

Notes

Does more damage to the durability of enemy armor than other weapons. According to tests, it does 3 durability damage to enemy Armor/Rings per hit. This is helpful for destroying low durability items like the Third Dragon Ring. That being said, the moveset doesn't lend itself to PvP, excepting the roll+R1 attack, which can surprise enemies. Due to the weapons incredible size, it is difficult to fast roll with, and isn't favored in PvP. For that reason, the enemy armor durability extra damage can be seen as negligible, except in very niche PvP builds that don't prioritize min/maxing stats.
With 99 DEX, 99 STR and fully upgraded the attack is 450+260

Design Speculation

Since we never see Vendrick use the weapon, it's possible the weapon is just a representation of the King's obsession with Nashandra and love for her, despite obvious signs that she is an agent of Dark.

Notes

• With a weight of 12.0, the Lost Sinner's Sword is one of the lightest ultra greatswords, along with the Drakewing Ultra Greatsword and the Zweihander.

• This weapon scales negatively with sin up to 30, in addition to regular scaling. This sin modifier lowers the total AR linearly to be 0 at 30 sin, meaning at 0 sin it has regular scaling,
  then each point of sin reduces the scaling by the same amount until at 30 sin the scaling is equal to the base damage but negative, resulting in a total AR of 0.
  However, despite the AR reaching 0 on screen, the sword will still have an effective AR equal to its base damage. Thus, Raw upgrade path is recommended for high levels of sin.

• Confirmed ways to affect the sin scaling:
  • Killing NPCs will increase your sin by 1 and lower the scaling.
  • Killing another player as a Black Phantom using a Cracked Red Eye Orb will increase your sin by 1 and lower the scaling.
  • Being defeated by a Blue Phantom will lower your sin by 1 and increase the scaling.

• Even at maximum strength and dexterity, only 8 sin will put the scaling into the negatives. So, due to the fact that Blue Phantom can only invade you once you reach 10 points of sin,
  there is no way to increase the scaling again if you are between 0-9 points, except by invading a Way of Blue member and then being killed by a Blue Sentinel who comes to assist them.
