The Barbed Club is a hammer in Dark Souls II.
In-Game Description
- A club forged from the soul of the Flexile Sentry. The spikes covering its length are as vile as the sentry itself.
- Long ago, the dungeons overflowed with the accursed, and the king commanded a contorted sentry to deliver those who had no cells to a faraway land, and to make certain they were never heard from again.
Availability[]
Acquired by trading the Flexile Sentry Soul with Straid of Olaphis along with 1,500 souls.
General information[]
Early game, this weapon will fall short due to its high stat requirements, scaling, and the necessity to obtain a rare upgrade material to make it stronger. It only shines later, when a character has very high Strength and Dexterity.
Still, ironically, by the time it starts becoming good, the player may rather obtain the superior Black Dragon Warpick, which upgrades using the same materials. Despite lacking bleed, it has higher durability and requires far lower stats to reach the same damage when infused.
Moveset[]
Its moveset is the same as all the other medium hammers, e.g. Morning Star, Reinforced Club, and so on.
