Pickaxe (Dark Souls II)

The pickaxe can be found when a friendly pig at Brightstone Cove Tseldora's Royal Army Campsite spawns. Stay near the pig and escort him to the building following the crystal damaged floors. Be wary, in the guide, it is said that there is a 1/1000 chance the pig will spawn. Go to the mushrooms in the building and let the pig dig. The pickaxe will appear.

Ingame Description
"A Pickaxe used for mining. Not intended as a weapon, but packs a powerful punch.

This tool designed to crush hard rock, can easily puncture weaker forms of armor."

Description
This great hammer has a pretty small range and a very limited moveset, the only horizontal swings being two handed heavy attacks. This weapon is great in narrow hallways, and can do thrusting damage. Overall, the weapon is great for two handers who attack vertically. Reccomendations for using this is that you use this weapon in offline mode, for with the weapon's moveset, it is almost impossible to get a good hit on a person.
