Follower Sabre is a Weapon in Dark Souls 3. It is part of the Ashes of Ariandel DLC.



Great curved sword wielded by Farron Followers. Its great weight enables heavy-handed chain attacks.

The Followers brandish their swords to hunt warriors taken by the Abyss. Their technique is honed to face men, implying those yet to lose their human aspect are their likeliest prey.

Skill: Prying Wedge

A chain attack that wedges below foes and swings upward, breaking their guard. Strong attack can be used to follow up the onslaught with a fatal blow.

 

Notes and Tips:

  • Can be Buffed and Infused.
  • Upgraded with Titanite.
  • Uses Falchion move set.
  • Has 401 AR when infused with Refined and 40 Strength and 40 Dexterity. 
    • When infused Sharp and with 18 Strength and 60 Dexterity it has 405 AR.
  • Retains the basic kick rather than the somersault typically associated with curved swords.



 

 

Location/Where to Find

  • Painted World of Ariandel: From the Ariandel Chapel bonfire, leave the chapel and attack the bridge causing it to fall and become a ladder. At the bottom of the ladder, follow the ridge to the first root you must traverse; on your left is another root with a Follower sitting, drop on it and follow it to the end. At the end of that root, you should see another root under you on your right hand side, drop down on that root and once more on the next one. You should see an area with a crystal lizard and a follower. Continue past him onto a small root which leads to another small area and a javelin Follower. You should see 2 roots, one that descends and one that ascends, follow the ascending root then on your right hand side fall onto a root that has the Follower Sabre.

      In my opinion, this is the best curved sword in Dark Souls 3. Just by virtue of having the curved sword moveset it is a beast in PVP. The weapon skill is iconic and deadly, overall the most well rounded curved sword. I personally use this with a buff build where I use base stats and buff the blade with Darkmoon Blade at 50 Faith. The damage is disgusting, and the weapon art will basically delete anything that gets hit by it, which is often. This was always a favorite of mine for Spear of the Church invasions. Fantastic weapon!

        So wikidot says it has B/B scaling with int/faith using chaos or dark gem at +10
        here it says A/A... so which is it?

        • Anonymous

          Try WA into jumping attack. Does more damage and uses no FP, but costs more stamina. Still a true combo, and if you go for an R1 after the combo, you'll have priority over EVERYTHING, including Estoc and Curved sword kicks.

          (Barring latency of course)

            i was duing some duals and this guy whith the twin door sheilds tryed to block the weapon art but because i had the knight slayers ring i broke his guard every time! me personaly have never used the doors so if this is normal for them i dont know why peaple hype them up, but if not..........

              A solid all-around weapon. The PKCS for Dark builds. I personally like to use it with a WA shield, 1H R1 R1 R2 seems to combo, and you still have one-button access to the WA for rollcatching or wakeup punish.

                The animation for the first motion of the weapon art seems to be recycled from Rakuyo's transformed L2 in Bloodborne

                    I really like the look of this weapon. Haven't used Curved Swords before so is this a good weapon to get used to their Playstyle? Or should I try another weapon of that category first?

                    Btw, only for Offline play because I'm not interested in online play.

                        I think this weapon art is inspired by Ciaran's weapons from Dark Souls 1. There is an item description for the gold tracer so most likely when the weapon was cut, they reused the ability for a new weapon.

                          This weapon has a r2 + wa + r2 truecombo. Tested with chaos infused sabre on drakeblood knight for over 700 damage

                            This used to be a great weapon. Now it's very average and there are much better options for any build. Should not have been nerfed IMO but then again, I think 75% of nerfed weapons should not have been.

                              Not an amazing weapon by any means, but knowing how to use a niche can be all the difference. I use this as backup for my greatswords that don't have stance WA, so i can still quickly break a shield if need be. Most blockers don't expect to be guard broken by a curved sword, and the black knight sword isn't any help with its WA. That's where this comes in handy, although there's definitely more practical options the sabre will always look cool

                                This may not be as fast as the flip curved swords (i.e. flip curved swords can roll catch on reaction extremely well rather than having to predict it), but what makes the Follower's Sabre really good is that the 1H moveset is far better than the 1H moveset of PKCS for example, letting you use support (spells, crossbow, shields, parry tools) more effectively.

                                  Good and fast, can really recommend. Buffing this with Rose of Ariandel, adding another 200 damage. One of the easiest weapons to butter through non-heavy targets, while retaining momentum and stamina. If you don't wanna buff manually, just infuse with lightning or so, at a minor, potential damage loss.

                                    The way you two-hand this weapon is very weird. Is the pommel resting on your left hand fist, or are you gripping the bottom guard with your index finger? Weird, huh.

                                      I use this alongside the Onyx Blade on my dark build, and lemme tell ya, this or onyx blade, with demon’s scar in the offhand and black pyromancies in my spell slots? Force to be reckoned with

                                        I really like this weapon. I didn't want to go with longsword again so I was looking for another weapon. I tried some others but I wasn't feeling them. I somewhat randomly decided to rush this weapon (my character was low level) and I fell in love with it. It has a practical and fun moveset, is fast, and it's R1 is so broad that I constantly hit enemies even when they do their dodge abilities. Plus it looks cool.

                                          Really good weapon, miles more useful weapon art than the carthus curved sword. Just takes a bit of skill to use efficiently as with all curved swords as you can't just poise through attacks and trades usually are not in your favor, just know when to attack and when to not, harder than it sounds lol.

                                                This weapon is apparently hated so much by the community that I have, honestly, in my 300 hour experience playing Dark Souls 3, barely ever met any person using this weapon in PvP. I have maybe met, like, 2 or 3 people in total.

                                                • imo that weapon flies heavily under the radar.
                                                  decent range/attack speed, good damage, pretty good infusionscaling, the ability to break guards with the wa/close spaces.
                                                  i love it.

                                                    So, did anyone else know that the Hollow Infusion increases the scaling in Dex? Not by much, but it's rather interesting.

                                                      Not entirely sure, but it feels like the WA gains significant range with low equip load. Each swing of the sword tugs your character about twice their height in distance, or at least that's how far out the hitbox seems to go.

                                                        Not usally one to complain about nerfs and buffs, though it's sad that this weapon and the FUGS have seemingly been nerfed into uselessness. I don't strictly use "meta" weapons, but I fail to see the usefullness of the Follower Sabre over the Falchion, or the FUGS over the Greatsword. All that being said, the weapon art is absolutely beautiful.

                                                          The WA description says it breaks foe's gaurd. This mean it works like the straight sword WA R1. But is this true? Haven't got around testing it and this is the first time I actually looked at the description .

                                                          • I would recommend this weapon for any kind of pyromancer run, especially with the chaos or dark infusion, since it scales around A on INT and FTH

                                                                :( in my first play throughs I didn't do pvp so I didn't know there was a meta that people complained about, i was just using this against pve and any invaders, now i realize why i got hate mail XD sad to see people hating on a decent weapon though

                                                                • Strange, considering how much of a drama there was over this weapon when Ariendel first came out but this thing's virtually vanished from the arena. I have not personally seen one for months now.

                                                                  I still think it's a good curved sword, but then again 80% of arena players are running around with heavy STR weapons and heavy armor now.

                                                                  • Anonymous

                                                                    • Anonymous

                                                                      • Anonymous

                                                                          Despite some of the complaints about this weapon I still like it. The move set is pretty fun even if it lacks a thrust and the weapon art is still useful on a number of enemies. And I think it seems slightly easier to parry now, but I could be wrong there since I've only recently begun to poke around in PvP after a long break from the game. Also, and perhaps most importantly, I like the look of the weapon quite a bit! Just a shame you can't use weapon arts w/o certain shields or using 2-hands. That fact throws off certain looks for a number of weapons! (Excluding paired weapons, of course, which tend to look fine.)

                                                                          The lack of a thrust and the lower damage on my quality build does knock some points off of it, but it never really was a 1st choice for me in PvP to begin with so that, coupled with the other tweaks, aren't huge issues.

                                                                          • Anonymous

                                                                            • Anonymous

What's next, easy difficulty for crybabies that would rather downgrade every decent weapon than abandon their useless, fashionsoul fairytale builds and ADAPT, accepting the fact that combat isn't really supposed to be fair in the first place? There was never OP weapon in this game, just bunch of lazy crybabies determined to kill every dynamic aspect of the combat to the point of where winner is whoever starts trading first. Go play Skyrim as ebony katana wielding waifu pls, this is evidently too much for your system.

I don't think any weapon should be that powerful with it's skill unless it's ranged, obviously.

                                                                                      • Anonymous

It always upsets me to see people constantly cry for a nert wather than finding a counter for the weapon.

                                                                                        • Anonymous

                                                                                          • Honestly even nerfed, this is still a pretty strong weapon, it relies a lot on surprise to take someone in pvp, and even baring it's art is just a pretty decant curvesword, maybe if people learned how to "beat the leet" from wouldn't have to come in and nerf easily dodged and countered weapons.

                                                                                            If you're new to facing off against users of this sword, don't panic, just wait till they flash their weapon arts, or try to roll slash and unleash hell with a heavy weapon or paired/fast weapon. If you're new to using this weapon, just remember this weapon is basically a non bleed dealing carthus curvesword with a viable weapon art post nerf just use if someone is turtling and you're very close range, but only use it when it's not expected or you'll just get carved up. It's a great pve/opener pvp weapon, but if you plan on using nothing but this sword be prepared to lose a lot of duels at this point, people are expecting it

                                                                                            last if i had to compare this to the current "meta" or "cancer" depending on your view that is the carthus curvesword, i would say this sword is comparable but it's a different play style, carthus relies on its bleed to deal with targets, this blade is more reliant on weapon arts, but baring bleed or arts, they're nearly identical, follower does get higher overall damage though making it optimal for buffing with resins and maintaining high per swing damage. but hey, that's just my personal evaluation from using these a fair bit in both pvp and pve
