| Weapons | Type | Best For | Weight | Motivity | Technique | Physical Attack |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Uroboro's Eye | Sword | The Best Weapon For Multiple Hits | 16.5 | C | B | 124 |
| Two Dragons Sword | Sword | The Best Parry Sword In The Game | 12.9 | D | A | 107 |

| Frozen Feast | Greatsword | The Best Weapon For Buffing Successive Attacks | 31.1 | B | C | 167 |
10. Frozen Feast
| Stats | Attributes |
| Type | Greatsword |
| Weight | 31.1 |
| Motivity Scaling | B |
| Technique Scaling | C |
| Physical Attack | 167 |
- Why I Chose This: Frozen Feast has hard hitting strikes along with an attack boost that stacks up to 4 times and has devastating Fable Arts.
How To Get: Defeat Champion Victor, located at Grand Exhibition, and exchange Reborn Champion’s Ergo for Frozen Feast.
Frozen Feast is the heaviest weapon on my list, but that heaviness does not come at the cost of any useful utility. It is incredibly slow and requires a great amount of investment in Capacity, all for nothing. Swinging the sword feels sluggish and clunky and is not really useful against any of the bosses.
One of its Fable Arts basically increases its attack speed and makes it viable, but the time duration for that is incredibly short, making it a weapon hard to recommend.
| Fable Arts | Descriptions |
| Liberate | Drop all of the rocks attached to the sword for an increase in attack speed. |
| Single Slash | Unleash slow forward slash attack |
- Provides attack boost on consecutive hits.
- Both the Fable Arts greatly increase the weapon’s dmg.
- Has very slow moveset and a high weight.
- The attack boosts are difficult to stack without Fable.
9. Seven-Coil Spring Sword
| Stats | Attributes |
| Type | Greatsword |
| Weight | 18.7 |
| Motivity Scaling | B |
| Technique Scaling | C |
| Physical Attack | 129 |
- Why I Chose This: Seven-Coil Spring Sword has both defensive as well as offensive capabilities with its Fable Arts and can be acquired early-on.
How To Get: Defeat the Parade Master in Krat Center City Plaza and exchange Parade Leader’s Ergo Quartz for Seven-Coil Spring Sword.
Seven-Coil Spring Sword is a drop from the first boss you encounter in Lies of P. It’s a Motivity Weapon with swift light attacks, making it great for one-on-one encounters. Spring Sword’s charged heavy attacks have an incredible range as well, making it great for dealing with a group of enemies, although at the cost of a long windup animation, which leaves you vulnerable.
Overall, the weapon works well against most normal enemies, but when it comes to Elite enemies and bosses, the heavy attacks can be tricky to time, and you can find much better alternatives later on for base damage in the category of Motivity weapons.
| Fable Arts | Descriptions |
| Seven Explosions | A charged downward blow followed by multiple forward ground explosions |
| Guard Parry | Time your guard to unleash a devastating attack |
- Has great Fable Arts for offensive and defensive combat.
- Is acquired from the very first boss in the game.
- Has comparatively low base dmg, needs upgrades.
- The Guard Parry has a strict window.
8. Holy Sword Of The Ark
| Stats | Attributes |
| Type | Greatsword |
| Weight | 21.1 |
| Motivity Scaling | B |
| Technique Scaling | C |
| Physical Attack | 140+128 |
- Why I Chose This: Holy Sword Of The Ark is a very versatile weapon due to its unique transformation and high dmg in both states.
How To Get: Defeat King’s Flame Fuoco, located in Venigni Works Control Room, and trade King’s Flame Ergo for Holy Sword of the Ark.
Holy Sword of the Ark is another trick weapon on my list of best boss weapons. In its base form, the weapon is quite mediocre. The attacks are very slow, which makes it very hard to connect them with enemies, no matter how good the damage is. The Fable Art, on the other hand, is quite fast.
In its spear state, the Holy Sword of the Ark is a much more practical option in combat. The spear state has a decent speed and range in both its light and heavy attacks but lacks the damage of its sword form. To effectively use the Holy Sword of the Ark, you’ll need to analyze which state of the weapon to use and when.
| Fable Arts | Descriptions |
| Patient Smash | Charge and unleash a devastating forward smash. |
| Alter | Transform the sword into a spear. |
- Has high dmg and can be transformed into a spear.
- The offensive Fable Art is different for both states.
- The moveset of the greatsword is very slow.
- You cannot alter the weapon without Fable charge.
7. Etiquette
| Stats | Attributes |
| Type | Dagger |
| Weight | 7.9 |
| Motivity Scaling | D |
| Technique Scaling | A |
| Physical Attack | 80 |
- Why I Chose This: Etiquette can be acquired early in the game and provides great support due to its distance covering capabilities and a Fable Art for parrying.
How To Get: Defeat the Scrapped Watchman in Krat City Hall and exchange Broken Hero’s Ergo for Etiquette.
This umbrella-themed weapon, known as the “Etiquette,” is a very good early weapon in Lies of P. Its moveset is reminiscent of that of a rapier, but what differentiates is the distance you can cover with each hit, making it very useful against enemies and bosses that like to backstep. However, as a technique weapon, it’s lacking in damage, and you’ll find much better alternatives later on.
I also must mention another unique aspect of Etiquette which is its umbrella opening animation at the end of its light and heavy-charged attacks. During the animation, the player will take the damage but can’t get staggered, making it extremely useful against bosses who unleash a relentless barrage of melee attacks or have long and delayed attack animations.
- Covers distance with every hit and has great Fable Arts.
- The charged attacks make you step back, dodging incoming attacks.
- Has considerably low dmg than other weapons of its class.
- The attacks has a low radius as they are only thrusting attacks.
| Fable Arts | Descriptions |
| Single Stab | A powerful piercing attack |
| Absolute Counterattack | Counter the enemy after a perfect guard |
6. Proof of Humanity
| Stats | Attributes |
| Type | Sword |
| Weight | 20.5 |
| Motivity Scaling | B |
| Technique Scaling | B |
| Physical Attack | 100 |
- Why I Chose This: Proof of Humanity can be slotted in both Str and Dex builds due to its balanced scalings and has high dmg that can further crit.
How To Get: Defeat the secret final boss, “Nameless Puppet,” located in “Under The Abyss,” and exchange Nameless Puppet’s Ergo for Proof of Humanity.
Proof of Humanity is another incredibly fast weapon on my list that excels in quick-light and heavy attacks. Using its heavy attack transforms it into dual blades that can unleash a series of devastating attacks. This is especially useful for inflicting ailments upon enemies.
Its Fable Art “Link Slash” is also similar in that regard, although the damage dealt is much higher. A stand feature of Proof of Humanity is its incredible Guard damage negation, making it easier to withstand enemy blows. It also has decent scaling with both Motivity and Technique, making it a viable choice for both builds.
| Fable Arts | Descriptions |
| Link Slash | Unleash a forward dual-blade slash, which can be followed up with 3 more strikes. |
| Grind | Raises Critical Hit Chance |
- Has multiple hit count and can crit.
- The Fable Arts additionally increases the crit chance.
- Has the highest weight in swords.
- Can only be used in NG+.
5. Noblesse Oblige
| Stats | Attributes |
| Type | Large Blunt |
| Weight | 24.7 |
| Motivity Scaling | A |
| Technique Scaling | D |
| Physical Attack | 153 |
- Why I Chose This: Noblesse Oblige packs a punch with its large hits and boosts Ergo gain from enemies, making it an ideal choice for a Motivity build.
How To Get: Defeat Simon Manus, Awakened God, located in the Arche Abbey Cradle of the Gods, and exchange Fallen One’s Ergo for Noblesse Oblige.
Noblesse is one of the best Motivity weapons in the game that you can acquire by killing a boss. It’s a large blunt-type weapon with a high stagger rate and damage. Its attack animations may look slow, but you can most likely stun-lock all of the normal enemies with its attacks. However, it all comes at a cost of high weight, requiring significant investment in Capacity stat.
What really sets it apart is its Fable Art, “Ergo Release.” This attack consumes around 500 Ergo but, in return, deals an extraordinary amount of damage, bringing even the toughest foes to their knees.
| Fable Arts | Descriptions |
| Ergo Release | Release a huge AoE attack at the cost of Ergo |
| Endure | Withstand enemy attacks temporarily |
- Has massive dmg on every hit and can stagger most enemies.
- Increases the Ergo obtained from enemies by roughly 10%.
- The Fable Art of the weapon consumes Ergo.
- This weapon is obtained after defeating the second last boss.
4. Trident of the Covenant
| Stats | Attributes |
| Type | Blunt |
| Weight | 16.4 |
| Motivity Scaling | C |
| Technique Scaling | B |
| Physical Attack | 115 |
- Why I Chose This: Trident of the Covenent has versatile moveset, can crit, and high scalings, making it an ideal Technique weapon.
How To Get: Defeat Fallen Archbishop Andreus in Archbishop Alter and trade Twisted Angel’s Ergo for Trident of the Covenant.
I must say, Trident of the Covenant is an extraordinary weapon with minimal weaknesses. It is a Technique Weapon, with moderately fast light attacks and lunging heavy attacks that can cover great distances, making it very easy to land attacks against agile bosses. Its standout feature is definitely its Critical Rate, making it one of the best weapons against bosses.
It also comes with a unique Fable Art called “Link Rush Stab” that can transition into a downward strike at the cost of an extra Fable Bar slot. It is an all-around great weapon that works very well against elite enemies and bosses.
- Has swift attacks that can also crit.
- Possesses great Fable Art for covering distances.
- It is difficult to parry with the Guard Parry.
- Has low crit rate which cannot be boosted.
| Fable Arts | Descriptions |
| Link Rush Stab | A forward slash followed by a downward strike |
| Guard Parry | Time your guard and follow it up with a counterattack |
3. Puppet Ripper
| Stats | Attributes |
| Type | Sword |
| Weight | 16.4 |
| Motivity Scaling | C |
| Technique Scaling | B |
| Physical Attack | 132 |
- Why I Chose This: Puppet Ripper is a unique weapon due to its whip like moveset along with two great Fable Arts one of which is excellent for crowd-control.
How To Get: Defeat King of Puppets in Estella Opera House Stage and exchange Burnt-White King’s Ergo for Puppet Ripper.
A personal favorite when exploring the fantastical world of Krat. Puppet Ripper is a Scythe-type weapon that can transform into a whip, similar to Threaded Cane from Bloodborne. The attacks are fast and can definitely keep up with some of the faster enemies in the game, and the heavy attack that transforms it into a giant whip makes it great for dealing with huge crowds of enemies.
Additionally, its Fable Arts are designed in a similar manner. Quick Upward Slash is a great choice for high single-target damage, and Storm Spinning Slash is suitable for dealing with a hoard of enemies. However, both of these Fabale Arts consume three bars.
| Fable Arts | Descriptions |
| Quick Upward Slash | A fast upward forward slash |
| Storm Spinning Slash | P holds the blade up and spins it around for a short duration |
- Delivers high damaging hits and can extend its range.
- The Strom Spinning Slash is great for crowd-control.
- Both its Fable Arts consume three Fable slots.
- The Fable Arts of the weapons leaves you open against non-stunned enemies.
2. Two Dragons Sword
| Stats | Attributes |
| Type | Sword |
| Weight | 12.9 |
| Motivity Scaling | D |
| Technique Scaling | A |
| Physical Attack | 107 |
- Why I Chose This: Two Dragons Sword has high Technique scaling and a fluid moveset that can dodge attacks and launch counterattacks through parrying.
How To Get: Defeat Puppet-Devouring Green Monster, located in Barren Swamp Nest, and exchange it’s Ergo with Two Dragons Sword.
Two Dragons Sword is one of the fastest boss weapons in the game. It not only has extremely quick light attacks but also has split-second heavy attacks. Its standout feature is a heavy attack that transitions into a Perfect Guard, and accurately nailing the attack not only opens up an opportunity for a follow-up attack but is also extremely satisfying to land.
Usually, an attack like this is locked behind Fable Arts, but that is not the case for the Two Dragons Sword, which in my opinion, cements its place as one of the best boss weapons in Lies of P. Additionally, it also has an AoE attack in the form of Fable Art, named “Wind of Swords.”
- The normal combo of the weapon can dodge enemy attacks.
- Heavy attack can parry incoming attacks and deliver a counterattack.
- The parry window of the charged attack is pretty tight.
- The dmg of the Wind of Swords is exceptionally low.
| Fable Arts | Descriptions |
| Link Emergency Dodge | Perform a quick dodge and follow it up with an attack |
| Wind of Swords | Launch a horizontal projectile attack |
1. Uroboro’s Eye
| Stats | Attributes |
| Type | Sword |
| Weight | 16.5 |
| Motivity Scaling | C |
| Technique Scaling | B |
| Physical Attack | 124 |
- Why I Chose This: Uroboro’s Eye can grind enemies in place and its Fable Art has substantial range and can buff itself for increased hit-count.
How To Get: Defeat Laxasia The Complete at Ascension Bridge and exchange Sad Zealot’s Ergo for Uroboro’s Eye.
Uroboro’s Eye is my favorite boss weapon when fighting against mobs, and in my opinion, the best boss weapon in Lies of P. It has quick light attacks for swift enemies and a heavy attack that covers the most range out of any weapons, making it very hard for bosses to evade it.
What I really love about this weapon is its extremely useful Fable Arts. Wandering Moon lets you use it like a boomerang and deal great damage from a very safe distance, and Storm Notice turns into the chainsaw that deals bonus damage on top of your normal attacks, similar to Whirlwig Saw from Bloodborne, except this one will cost Fable Art bar.
| Fable Arts | Descriptions |
| Wandering Moon | Throw the weapon at the enemy like a boomerang |
| Storm Notice | Increases the number of bonus hits per attack |
- Has high scaling along with substantial dmg.
- Both Fable Arts increases the dmg output of this weapon.
- Has low range outside of Fable Arts.
- Obtained after defeating an end-game boss.
This concludes my guide on the best boss weapons in Lies of P. While you are at it, consider reading the guide on legion arms, starting class, and the Mystery of Dorothy in Lies of P.
My Thoughts
Uroboro’s Eye is the best boss weapon in Lies of P. Not only does the weapon have incredible speed, but it also offers great coverage and damage. Attacks from safe distances, bonus damage, and decent range make it stand out from the rest. It checks all the right boxes of what makes a good weapon in Lies of P, and is my goto weapon for most bosses in the game.
