Jagged Ghost Blade | Dark Souls Wiki

i really don't understand soulsborne players' ability to complain about every single drop chance and make it out like it takes 57 years to farm one. firstly just to clear up any misconceptions these ghosts have an extremely high chance to drop transient curses so you'll get 2-6 per 1 that you use even with 0 item discovery, and secondly you can quadruple your discovery to make it a 4% chance which means on average it takes 25 kills to get one. let's say you're being lazy and only kill 5 enemies per run, that's 5 runs. if that takes you 7 hours and you gave up and got divorced and started crying then good for you, you took 20 times longer than average and definitely aren't lying for attention on a dark souls wiki. i'd like to clarify that my rant doesn't include ds2 players please get help and get cheat engine asap

Just started a Sorcerer run, got one from the second ghost from the Firelink entrance.

Then I ran back to grab my souls and the same ghost dropped another.

And that's how I discovered it has a cool off hand animation.

If you can get it at begining of the game it's really nice option for pure caster build. Later (when you collect embers) it only serves as anti-ghost weapon if you want quick tour without using transient curse.

I'd rather use this for Titanite Chunk/Slab farming rather than using a Transient Curse just for the two ghosts you encounter while doing the route.

The Shanking Knoife.

Wasn't this a dagger?

Submit

If you're doing a very low-level twink build, this blade is truly a must-have. Your range will suck but damn if it doesn't pack a punch.

Submit

Is it worth it to upgrade this *specifically* for the ghost encounters?

Submit

took me ng++ to get not one, but 4 of these

Submit

wth can you really not enchant this??

Submit

its like if the gold tracer was completely **** instead of great

Submit

I was farming for these as a wanderer for a decent early weapon and took me five hours to give up trying to get it. a week later on another build, I got three in a row. late game. it was useless. yay.

Submit

Doing a "no death" run with this weapon was really great. >Destroy Stray Demon easily with bleed for free 20k souls very early, +5 before Quelaag, no scaling and 1.5 weight so all the levels went to Vitality and Endurance which allowed me to wear some pretty strong armors. Early to mid game damage is pretty damn good, late game it falls a bit but it doesnt matter because my HP and Defense was so high bosses did minimal damage.

Submit

Perfect for sorcerers <3

This blade is useful when farming the Darkwraiths for titanite chunks, cause the ghosts will show up un-invited. I dont use Transient curse, so I two-hand jagged ghost blade to block the ghosts attacks. (It doesn't block all the damage, does it DOES block) The Strong-Attack "Prison stab" is awesome.

Submit

The R2 on this gives me prison vibes

Submit

Bruh I got 4 of these on my first time through New Londo Ruins

Submit

Found it on my first ghost, thought it was rare because i don't remember finding it in other playthroughs, but 1%.. damn

Submit

The jagged ghost blade has low stats requirements to make it good for sl1 plays, it has the ability to hit ghost without using transient curse and it has bleeding. But this is when the positive ends with this curved sword, unfortunately. It's scaling is nearly non existent only having E scaling of strength, it deals pitiful damage against bosses who's immune to bleeding, doesn't deal the necessary damage to bring it in ng cycles and it gets outclassed. Like I said, it's low stat requirements, curse ability and bleeding make this weapon usable in the early game and sl1, but it doesn't save from being a horrid weapon.

Submit

umm i just got 2 in 10 minutes i might go buy a lottery ticket

Submit

Why does it say its enchantable?

Submit

wait this is rare I got it on my second ghost

Submit

Everyone sleeps on the fact that the heavy attack is thrust damage and with the speed of the stabs you can rack up some nasty counter damage on enemies with the leo ring, and the bleed build-up hits extra hard.

Submit

Best Sl1 curved sword

Submit

The r2s are so fun on this weapon. Its like you brutally stabbing someone.

Submit

Got lucky and picked this up early. Was my main weapon for a long time. So good.

Submit

Get 10 liquid humanity and a few homeward bones, it’s an easy farm after 2-3 runs for me in ghost busting up till the church. It’s a good blade to have, nice damage and the bleed is a big bonus. Only thing I do that like about it is it’s TERRIBLE to use in night spots for it catches on the walls, rafters and trees. That being said however, two hand it and go into serial killer mode with the jabbing helps avoid it. One more downside, it’s very slow in attacking.

Submit

Wild. I’m super new to the game, just got to Blighttown and my drakesword was breaking so I was looking for something to replace it for a while in my list of weapons. I’m not sure when I got this but I guess it’s pretty good!

Submit

Pointless. Past G.S Ring, Transient Curses drop easier and in multiples. Meaning you can use your exact build to combat, cast, swing and block them without J.G.B. After 4 Kings (which you access later in game) you'll only come back to N.L base level for Chunks and Drakes outside. Better Bleed options too (with far better Scaling/AR)

Submit

Holy crab I just got this without knowing how rare it was

Submit

This table makes no sense if it is a curved sword it should have some decent scaling in dex yet it only has an E in str and nothing anywhere else is something wrong with this or something

Submit

Who you gonna call? This thing.

Submit

It's interesting but aside from hitting ghosts, this blade also keeps skeletons from resurrecting.

Submit

Is there ever a reason to pick ghost blade over this? It seems to outclass it completely.

Submit

it is not enchantable

Submit

Is this weapon actually Enchantable? At the top of the page it shows the +5 with magic fire and lightning damage is that a miss type????

Submit

An awesome weapon for sure if you are lucky enough to get it at the very beginning. It attacks very fast and builds up bleed fast also. Good weapon to use on blue drakes in the valley of drakes for soul/dragon scale farming.
