Corvian Greatknife | Dark Souls 3 Wiki

This looks like a clean version of quelaag furysword. Improve the looks by carthus flame arc.

It wont consume your poison buff it refunds your rotten resin after it expires

Blind spot should have been an ash of war, change my mind

which build benefits it the most for 40 in all stats ( for a soft cap example )

hollow? ( if luck gives decent dmg with dex )
heavy? ( if for some reason it has higher D scaling than sharp )
sharp? ( for higher cast speed and damage )
raw? ( minimum requirement + better hp/stamina/armor or spells )
chaos/dark? because it has D scaling in all stats )



i'm thinking to make a "cancer" build around speed and aggressivity with some pyromancies like fire surge and profaned flame and maybe carthus flame arc if not chaos to keep a high pressure up close with the best dmg/level ratio

no matter the infusion, i'm counting 20 dex + sage ring for highest cast speed or 50 dex with an open ring slot ( high cast speed is important for fire surge, or else it sucks )

Hello DS3 player, I am come to you for a little favour, and I will carry this message to everywhere in DS3 community.
There is a glitch that allows you to summon white sign mad phantom in Gael’s Arena (Credit to Dashingsaint), if you keep Shira alived while she invade you (you can escape her simply sprint out her aggro range), you won’t trigger gael boss cutscene, and then you could put down you purple summon white sign or summon other white purple.
Thus, a new fight club is founded, an arena in a long lost dessert under the sunset sky which sprinkle with fainted galaxy.
If you’re watching this, kindly please help me share this and invite any ds3 enthusiast you known to this new fight club, your little effort would be much appreciated.
SL25+2, SL40+4, SL60+6, SL72+8, SL90+10, SL125 Meta, SL 351++, all SL range are acceptable.
Welcome to the Gael’s Sunset Arena, the most beautiful map in the entire series, the last arena at the End of World.
I will await you there, in the End of the World, and we shall fight eternal, shiny and incandescence.
LONG MAY THE DARK SOULS COMMUNITY LIVE

Proof that AR is not everything, range and moveset are. Less cancer than murky but only barely. Where murky's quickstep can be used aggressively or defensively, Corvian is only for running people down and killing them. Blind spot combos and rollcatches with ease, even with no FP.

Submit

This weapon has a lot of bonuses. It utilizes great range, chip damage which it can easily rack up. Has a good weapon art and is by its dagger class nice and fast. However I think its not suitable for ganks and really good for 1v1 with crossbow. Against all odds, I think it is overshadowed by the murky due to the hitstun and quickstep. But still a good back-up for finishers nonetheless.

How does 0 FP affect the WA?

I believe a greatknife is what we in the business refer to as a sword

i'm a casual in my first playthrough, i still can't get past Dancer even tho i'm at Anor Londo already, but the WA of this weapon is so good for pvp omg, i killed a couple of invaders already, and there was this one dude with top tier gear, i could still score the win with just this dagger's WA and full master's set armour. I loved it, thanks Miyazaki for this dagger's WA :)

Submit

Miyazaki knew back in 2016 that tryhards are gonna use it in 2021 pvp, so he based the weapon's description on these players.

My brain's bitrate is too low to deal with dagger crowboi reeing mother****ers

Submit

so is this thing just not parriable or what? people spam r1 with this and i’ll stand there parrying and just eating damage, it’s so stupid

Submit

I got invaded by someone using a poison infused corvian greatknife and oh man it is great, but absolutely annoying if you don't know how to deal with it lol. The WA is pretty great at roll catching and on top of him applying the fire resin (the fast ver.), he absolutely bodied me. Needless to say, I need to git gud lol

Submit

Break someone's tears or get them close to it and swap to this, especially after a crit.. aside from a pot parry(don't underestimate it) they're almost always screwed...

Submit

Tf infusion do you even put on this? Seems like it has bad scaling regardless

this dagger is a jack of all trades when it comes to fight, it has a gorgeous damage output, costs a tiny amount of stamina per hit, being able to deal massive amounts of damage before running out of stamina, is incredibly fast since its a dagger, its range is bigger than a shortsword which a straight sword and also has wide reach being able to hit two or even three enemies at the same time depending on the size of them, can be infused AND buffed, being able to reach over 400 AR without a buff by infusing with crystal gem and +10 and even over 500 AR by infusing with sharp gem and buffing with strong spells like crystal magic weapon or lightning blade and using a good catalyst or chime/talisman, its good for both PvP and PvE and is just so underrated, you don't see many people using this because almost no one uses daggers, but i do and i've beaten the whole game with this weapon, i've infused this with crystal gem which is probably the best gem for this weapon (for someone who don't care about buffs like me) since it is the only gem which not only has a big base damage but also has C scaling in intelligence, and guess what? i have 52 intelligence, so i have this +10 corvian greatknife infused with crystal gem and it does 437 damage, its even bigger than my raw zweihander+6 which is a ultra greatsword, and that's why i love this weapon and i'm currently completing my to-do list before i start NG+, i have beaten the whole game with this dagger, including every boss haha this weapon is an absolute MONSTER

Submit

Laughable weapon with little damage. __[[ PKCS ]]__ shiit on this pathetic knife and it's casuls users (All weapons in ds3, except for the pkcs, are for casuls because pkcs told me so). Dammnnn, this shiity knife doesn't even have scaling so you must be nut to pick it up.

Submit

Parry this, filthy cestus spammer.

*weapon arts you to death*

Submit

No Scaling, but perfect if infused with Raw in NG. Highly recommended.

Submit

two handed this thing has almost as much range as the shortsword.
another reason to never use that already useless thing in pvp, lmao

Submit

the only downside is that this have no scaling lol

Submit

you can use this on an sl1 build with hoonters ring and milkring. +10 raw with carthus spell + witches ring + great swamp ring + fire clutch ring is good on bosses weak to fire, EG curse rotted ballsacks. but Mr ballsacks is plenty easy without all these rings. but if u want a fast weapon with decent damage, u should try this

Submit

i wish there was off hand running attacks. if there was then this would be the ultimate off hand roll catch weapon

Submit

Good weapon for players who rely on weapon-spell-buff. Good physical damage, good AT speed, good range.

Submit

People- your ToD cant beat this

I love outranging this weapon every single time a "meta" player takes it out as a crutch.

Schizophrenic straight sword

Can easily dance around pkcs players with this dagger

Okay, does anyone else get annoyed by the seemingly randomly added "motion values" and "shield pokes" sections on about half of the weapon pages? Aside from how uninformative the information is, two-thirds of the sections are just explaining what on earth they are trying to say.

best weapon for spanking stuff at the speed of light

Submit

i'm not a big fan of temporary buffs, so what i did was just infuse this big dagger with a dark gem and since i have 40+ intelligence, 40+ faith, 40+ strenght and 40+ dexterity (quality mage build), my corvian greatknife+10 infused with THIS dark gem now deals an astonishing amount of over 420 damage, and a dagger doing this much damage without a buff is actually impressive, even my friend who is a veteran in dark souls got impressed since he is not used to see many effective dagger build

Submit

corvian greatknife aka shortsword but faster

Submit

this dagger makes caestus useless, since caestus does less damage, has a way shorter range and is also slower

Submit

the r1 spam monster, i love this weapon lmao xd

Submit

upgrade this up to +10, then infuse with sharp gem and level up to 40 dexterity, and then get lightning blade spell and buff it, and you will have a nearly op weapon with over 500 AR but super fast and costs very low amount of stamina, it could potentially beat everything and everyone if you have enough skills, you just need to git gud lol

Submit

lets all face the facts: this thing is a straight sword with the moveset and stamina cost of a dagger

Submit

its a straight sword but fast as f*ck, this sh*t have like almost the same size as shortsword but actually higher damage and higher speed, its a lowkey monster in both PvE and PvP when +10, infused and buffed with crystal magic weapon

Submit

best dagger for pvp

Submit

The phantom range on the WA is hella annoying, but it does work.

Submit

I always see tryhards in Lapps armor using this, is this thing meta now?

Submit

Wow...an E/E weapon, but the Refined Infusion actually makes it worse. So unnatural.

Submit

Page says Sharp has a D in Dex, I believe that's higher in game, can someone confirm?

Submit

An underrated weapon that is shockingly powerful

Submit

Buffed this bad boy with the dark moon blade with yorshka chime and got an AR of 519.

Submit

Amazing weapon. Does it's job pretty well as an offhand for slower weapon (in my case that's Curved GS), and is capable of easily chasing down opponents with low HP. Insanely fast opening 2h R1, with good latency you can just obliterate someone trying to roll away. Good reach, great WA (parry and turtle punish), good moveset and crazy speed. Only downsides are subpar critical modifier and meh scalings,

Submit

King of offhand spam

Submit

Do not infuse this with elemental damage, even Dark/Chaos, regardless of your build. The reason why is that this thing is god-tier at inflicting thrust counter-damage with its two-handed R1 poke, so you specifically want your thrust damage value as high as your build allows. The absurd range of this dagger combined wtth the speed of that R1 poke makes counter-hits EASY. This short-sword pretending to be a dagger can just waltz up to anything staggerable and do it at will. If it had Quickstep too, this weapon would basically break PvP. Even so, Blind Spot still has value in PvP because it doesn't seem parryable.
