The Sunlight Straight Sword is a straight sword in Dark Souls III.

In-Game Description

Straight sword imbued with the strength of lightning.
This featureless long sword contains the very power of the sun. Perhaps is a relic of one-sided adoration.
Skill: Oath of Sunlight
Raise the sword aloft when praising the sun to boost attack and damage absorption for self and allies in vicinity. The warriors of sunlight are co-operators from an ancient age.

Availability[]

Found in Lothric Castle, dropped by a Mimic in a room adjacent to the white wyvern.

Characteristics[]

The Sunlight Straight Sword shares the same moveset as the Long Sword. Besides scaling with both Strength and Dexterity, it also relies on Faith, all of which increase its physical damage output.
