Lords of the Fallen: 5 Best Weapons [Battle-Tested]

Here, you can learn everything about the best weapons in Lords of the Fallen, along with their worth and other details.

Lords of the Fallen has been generous to players with weapons, as there are tons of good options that can be obtained early in-game. As there are tons of options available, it might be difficult to select one. The best weapons In Lords of the Fallen can be found pretty early, and they are also viable in the late game.

Best Weapons In Lords of the Fallen

There are 194 weapons in Lords of the Fallen. Here is an overview of the best weapons I could in the early game, along with their stats:

Most of the best weapons I found early in Lords of the Fallen are pretty much based on the Strength attribute, and Righteous Pulveriser is one of them. While you find many great weapons early on, Lords of the Fallen punishes you by the requirements to wield the weapon, which are very high for some. Still, Righteous Pulveriser is the best Radiance weapon for mid-game areas.

The other problem, along with the stat requirement, is the way to handle the weapon. It is pretty hard to handle a heavy weapon, and it can also limit your rolling. So, choose your weapon type and equipment wisely. 

  • Deals high Holy damage.
  • Has a bleed status effect.
  • Difficult to use.

4- Devotion’s Might

The Best Alternative For Righteous Pulveriser.

If you want to try a weapon that can make your game easy, then Devotion’s Might is a must-try weapon. I was shocked by how good the weapon is as it has high poise damage along with high damage. As you can hit multiple enemies with a single swing, you won’t have much trouble farming Vigor.

If you don’t like Righteous Pulveriser, you can simply use its best alternative, Devotion’s Might. Again, the weapon has a stat requirement problem, which can be a problem. You would need 28 Strength and 28 Radiance to just wield the weapon. 

  • Has a Smite status effect, and it does holy damage.
  • The scaling is good.
  • Stat requirements are high.

3- Pieta’s Sword

The Best Radiance Weapon In Lords of the Fallen.

Pieta is a boss in Lords of the Fallen that you will have to beat pretty early in-game. When you defeat her, you will get a remembrance, which can be used to get her weapon. Pieta’s Sword is one of the best weapons in Lords of the Fallen. If you went for the Radiance build, then I would recommend you get it as soon as possible, as it is the best radiance weapon in Lords of the Fallen.

It is a great weapon that deals holy damage and builds up smite on enemies. Smite is a pretty great status effect that can cause an enemy to explode, so make sure to give Pieta’s Sword a try.

  • Scales only with Radiance.
  • Has a Smite status effect.
  • Unlocks a secret art at +5 when paired with a +5 Elianne’s Sword. 
  • It has no cons.

2- Faithful Bludgeon

The Best Strength Weapon In Lords of the Fallen.

I think Faithful Bludgeon is the second-best weapon in Lords of the Fallen. The good thing about the weapon is that it doesn’t have crazy stat requirements. You would only need 28 Strength. Once you have 28 Strength, you will be able to wield Faithful Bludgeon and destroy most of the enemies, making it the best strength weapon.

You should keep the weight in mind, as the weapon has a weight of 34.4, which is extremely high. It also inflicts Burn on the enemies, which just makes it a must-try weapon.

  • Reasonable stat requirements. 
  • Has a burn status effect.
  • Does massive damage.
  • Difficult to handle.

1- Bloody Glory

The Best Weapon In Lords of the Fallen.

Weight 35.1

The final weapon on my list is the Bloody Glory, and it is the best weapon I could find in Lords of the Fallen. While the weapon can be found early, it sure is viable in the late game, too. I would not recommend you to try out Bloody Glory in the early game, as the stats requirements are insane, and I can understand why.

It requires 20 Strength, 30 Agility, and 32 Radiance, which is just massive. The 300 Bleed Build-Up is what impressed me the most. With Bloody Glory, you will instantly inflict blood loss on enemies, which is insane. With the right gear and the right buffs, you can defeat many bosses with the weapon.

  • Has a whopping 300 bleed build-up.
  • Staggers enemies easily.
  • Deals massive damage.
  • Has hard stat requirements.

Alternative Weapons

There are some other weapons in Lords of the Fallen as well which players can try, however, I didn’t add them to my top 10 list due to various factors.

  • Ravager Gregory’s Sword: Inflicts Physical and holy damage, but it also does wither damage making it inferior to Bloody Glory.
  • Lightreaper’s Sword: It’s a two-handed sword known for its swift strikes and deadly precision, but it is heavier and has a lower swift speed.
  • The Iron Wayfarer’s Hammer: Stands out for its exceptional physical damage, but it is heavy and has predictably slow attacks.

Which Is The Best Weapon In Lords of the Fallen – My Take

With my experience so far, I think the best weapon in Lord of the Fallen is arguably the Bloody Glory.

It can be found pretty early, and as it is a beast, it is ranked at number 1 on my list. I am planning to make it my main weapon, so if you want to learn more about the weapon, you can comment on it. If you don’t want to use Bloody Glory, then there are many other great weapons I have ranked in the list. One of my personal favorites is the Rusty Cutter, which can be found pretty early.
