One aspect in Minecraft -pardon- Dark Souls that I have always liked very much is how simple and yet effective even the most inconspicuous weapons can be if you know how to use them and how to use them correctly. It's the same with this weapon. Good damage, excellent scaling and perfect for strength builds and you can farm it and make different versions like crystal, lightning, fire, divine etc. Some bosses didn't really expect to be crushed by a pickaxe. Oh, and now I can finally mine these pretty diamonds.

Why do you even need a legendary sword that takes superhuman strength to use, when you can easily mince your enemies with a simple but surprisingly effective pickaxe? And you can even buff it.
So sometime ago, a band of barbarians went far down below armed with pickaxes- probably to mine for ore or some other natural resource found in Blighttown. Looks like Blighttown mined them instead.

The fact that it has A scaling, and you can get the item repeatedly...Is this a viable crystal weapon? For bosses and such only.
I also usually run with weapons that have 200 durability anyway and have no trouble.
