Halberds are a Weapon Category in Dark Souls and Dark Souls Remastered. Halberds are somewhat slower versions of spears with a similar moveset and range. These weapons have powerful attacks with several Damage Types, making them a well-rounded choice for a main weapon. Since Halbers are relatively slow and sweeping in their motions, players should place their attacks carefully to avoid the lengthy recovery times. Halberds can also be paired with items such as the Leo Ring to increase their damage output.

  • Pros: Moderate weight, very long range, high Attack Power (same as Greatswords), sweeping and thrust movesets provide shield and two-hand variety.
  • Cons: Mediocre scaling for the lighter halberds, recovery time leaves users open to counter attacks.
  • Recommendations: Use leo Ring to increase damage.
