Guardian Tail

The  is a Whip in Dark Souls.

Availability
The Guardian Tail is obtained by cutting the tail off of the Sanctuary Guardian guarding the Oolacile Sanctuary.

Characteristics
The Guardian Tail has low attack power, but causes a good amount of poison. It cannot be parried, and it cannot riposte or backstab. The Guardian Tail is better off used as an offhanded weapon rather than the main weapon as it is less effective as a main offensive weapon compared to most of the weapons available by the time you reach Painted World of Ariamis.

Upgrades
Requires: 200 Souls and Titanite
