Dark Hand | Dark Souls Wiki

Virgin: Joins dorkwraiths to use dark hand as a weapon, gets killed by hosts anyways.

Chad: Gets darkhand as random drop but uses it as a shield, enjoys funny distortion effect.

Submit

Submit

Best item in the game, can be used to kiss solaire

Submit

I tried to get this but I realized I have 99 twin humanity lmao

Submit

Give to Frampt to receive 1 soul.

Submit

Submit

I keep sucking and no humanity come out(??

Submit

The NPCs and players can parry the grab attack fyi people

Submit

Me when invaded host is afk

Submit

i love passionately kissing dudes

Submit

When I ejaculate to Kaathe rule34 ten times in a row my hand looks like this

Submit

Using it as a shield is not a very good idea because of the abysmal (pun intended) stability, except in one case: magic! Not only does it block most magic projectiles completely for some reason, it can even block the 4Kings' death waves without spending stamina at all! There are better elemental shields for fire and lightning, but if you gonna face some mages, this is a lightweight and decent option. Especially for the 4Kings battle... Oh, the irony!

Submit

The 1 time i land the succ in pvp is worth all the 1000000 times i missed

Submit

When in the left hand, does this parry as well as block? Big if yes

Submit

Ahh yes. With this I’m able to smooch with Petrus as he moan loudly in my ears

Submit

free hugs

Submit

got one droped while playing casualy 100% achivements

Submit

I got one from a darkwraith, thank goodness because I had locked myself out of kaathe beforehand

Submit

I just tried to farm Slabs from the Wraiths in New Londo. Had no luck but instead got this. Didn't even knew they drooped these. Funny that I got the rarer drop instead.

Submit

Decent damage, good weight and durability but the r2 is sloooooow

Submit

Finding this on my first pass through New Londo in this Playthrough - 'punching only' challenge.

It *does* qualify by the criteria I outlined, so I guess I have to go serve Kaathe now

Submit

Is it possible to break dark hand with enough time

Submit

I tried it on the dude right next to the firelink shrine bonfire and it did nothing no damage and no humanity. Did I do something wrong

Submit

Life Succ

Submit

The R2 does not bypass parries, got parried by a rapier Balder night while testing what could be grabbed

Submit

can be upgraded up to +5

Submit

can be upgraded up to +5

Submit

Hey Reah check this out!

Submit

"1% chance"

I have 11 of these.

Submit

I equipped this and became a serial kisser. Smooching all human npcs in the game.

Submit

"Using R2 on an NPC should not cause them to become hostile, so you can use it freely, with the exclusion of the blacksmiths, who will become hostile upon attack."

Of course, I be pissed off too when I'm hammering my hammer then suddenly someone grab me and stop my work. Others don't care, they don't have anything to do, just standing.

Submit

Be aware, it doesn't make NPC's hostile but it does give you sin.

Submit

I killed like 10 Darkwraiths and have 2 of these somehow

Submit

Can someone help me get dark hand or trade it???

Submit

Dark Hand? They should've named this as "Bane of Giantdad"

Submit

Bring down their hp with the dragon headstone, then use the r2 on this baby when they stop and chug. Great for free humanity in low level invasions, and more fun then the glitch.

Submit

Just something to note, you can use magic shield and strong magic shield on the dark hand. In case you wanted to use this as a shield for some reason.

Submit

I am here to repent, I stole 89 humanity from an afk havel twink in firelink shrine (SL 20 twink invasions on my part) but that's how I got my 99 soft humanity and made everyones day worse for the next few weeks before an actually good player spanked me...

Submit

good sl1 weapon

Submit

You see this damn thing at SL 20 or below, run.

Submit

tried it on Solaire and it gave me nothing and he got angry but not hostile

Submit

I was working towards gathering 50 humanity to reach rank 3 in the Darkwraiths and I ended up invading an AFK host who I drained exactly 50 humanity from before they came back. Jackpot!

Submit

So it's useless for PvE unless you want to damn violate every single friendly npc in the game?

Submit

Somebody two-handed this on switch and could block 4 people r1 spamming him. Anyone know what he did?

Submit

get a full egghead on your head invade someone and do a kick attack then use r2 on people who think it can infect them and you'd sure give them a heart attack lmfao...and people think darkwraiths with fancy skeletal masks are evil ha now this is downright evil

Submit

Any idea what weapon lvl this counts as?

Submit

This is the best weapon to use on afk players

Submit

It looks great and is very effective ... when the Darkwraiths use it. The version for the player is unfortunately as stable as a damp handkerchief.

Submit

Recommended block usage: Magic attacks. The Dark Hand will basically take a dump on mage, pyro, or cleric builds. Specifically, Fire Surge can be blocked without any stamina loss. How's that for the worst stability 'shield' in the game?

Submit

Recommended NPCs to suck Humanity out of: Reah, Laurentius, Griggs, Lautrec, Petrus, and human Vince/Nico. Logan and Dusk both have no Humanity.

Submit

Here's a general criteria for Humanity stealing - it will only work on player models. This means that it won't work on giants, blacksmiths, egg dudes, or any entity that isn't using the player model. Otherwise, it will damage, and likely aggravate, whatever entity it is attempted on.

Submit

Don't try it on worm head guy to get humanities for Quelaag's sister

Submit

Innocent question: how do you use dark hand to succ humanity in pvp?? I mean the animation is sooo slow they can just roll away, not to mention the small hitbox...?

Submit

This weapon sucks... literally.

Submit

You can have a field day with Reah and her crew after killing Capra Demon using this.

Submit

Some of you guys are going to hate me for this. I'm not a big fan using the dark hand. The good things about it is the humanity steal and most blocking stats(except for stability). Depending what darkwraith covenant level you are if your at the maximum level, it'll be a great humanity generator. The stats of the shield is phenomenal but the stability is the worst. When comparing to other well round shields like the grass crest shield, the dark hands stability is the lowest out of the all round shields. Sure it's light, but same goes with other shields. The main reason why I don't like the dark hand is it appears many times on my darkwraith farm. This kinda infuriates me when the dark hand shows up. I forgot to mention about the durability. It's durability is 999 which is good. But like I said, it's abysmal stability of 30 and my personal frustration of getting it to much are two of my biggest problems. I'm sorry but it's my opinion.

Submit

I just got two Darkwrsiths in a row to drop these while I was farming for Titanite Chunks... What are the odds of that happening even with high item discovery??

Submit

I hit people so many times right in the face with it even when being on the same floor like described here and yet 90% of my hits don't grab them. Only small damage numbers. And when i finally get one, they don't even have any humanity at all. lmao

Submit

I'd love to see someone dual wield 2 of these, would be a hilarious playthrough

Submit

"Should we make them drop their set or sword?" "Nah let's have them drop their non physical magic power instead"

Submit

I actually have the dark hand and when I got it I thought it's A better pyromancy glove xd

Submit

I wrote it on "Ring of Fog" page, but guess i'll better write it here too. The thing is, Ring of Fog also makes your dark hand invisible. Quoting myself from other page: "This includes the shield mode, so it'll look like you deflect hits with your bare hand. Besides, it may also help to trick other players, since there will be no way to tell that you have dark hand equipped. It DOESN'T make succ invisible, however. Have no idea if this will work in remaster, but it surely does in non-remastered version on PC. Can someone try this in remastered version?"

Submit

succ hand

Submit

i love dark souls

Submit

Anyone willing to drop dark hand for me.

Submit

Does anyone else think its retarded that you can't parry with the Dark Hand like you could in the original Dark Souls? I'd rather parry with it, off hand, than bother trying to time a grab personally, am I the only one?

Submit

best feeling in dark souls remastered? being a sunbro and slamming the succ attack on an invader. now their invasion is essentially an instant loss, unless they kill the host, which just brings them back to whatever humanity they had before.

Submit

Kiss, kiss, bang, bang!

Submit

Can a Dark Hand grab be parried?

Submit

80 across the board for 1 weight, too good

Submit

I'm not sure if I understand how you do the dark hand grab with it in your left hand. I wouldn't try to parry with the dark hand so I wish they made it that the L1 would be block BUT the L2 would the dark hand grab. I don't want to have to keep the dark hand in my second right hand slot. That's reserved for a bow or catalyst.

Submit

Why the ***** would people like them?
