You're probably better off using the Gargoyle's Halberd if we're talking pure statistics, as it has more base damage and range than the Lucerne. However, there's nothing stopping you from getting the other weapons as well. Red Titanite Chunks are among the easier to farm, and you don't have to get every weapon to +15 to use it in the end-game.

One thing of note for the run is to have a backup weapon. You do NOT want to be caught with only Fire and +0 weapons when you go up against Quelaag.
