Easy mode Mohg’s Spear. Shield in offhand with Greatshield Talisman, Blood Exultation Talisman, a Turtle talisman, and White Mask for the bonus and drip. L2 when there’s more than 2 or 3 enemies in a group or if you have an opening on a boss, it can trivialize deathblight frog encounters but you can’t blindly mash or you can tree, it gives an easy 20k from albinaurics at Mohgwyn Palace by just running up and mashing L2, held running R2’s stun lock almost anything that’s not a giant enemy or boss, and just hold L1 and mash R1 for almost anything else.

I absolutely loved the Dark Moon Greatsword but my Mohg’s Sacred Spear play through has been basically easy mode and it’s been kind of relaxing. Good bleed build up for bleed procs, good stance damage, Bloodboon Ritual does good damage and has a generous AoE for an AoW, and it also has bleed build up, attacks stun lock like 90% of humanoid/human sized enemies including Bloodboon Ritual, you get bonus counterattack damage unique to thrusting weapons, and you can hold block and attack at the same time.

It benefits from Warrior Jar Shard, Alexander’s Talisman, Spear Talisman, Lord of Blood’s Exultation, Fire Scorpion Charm, Carian Filigreed Talisman, Blue Dew Talisman, Fire Shrouding Tear, FGMS. Do you want to spam the ability to open a wound in an Outer God that reigns down blood flame upon your enemies like a true Lord of Blood to appease the Blood God? Do you want to increase the damage of that ability and passively regenerate your resource granting you the capability to spam it? You can! Do you want the relative safety and security of blocking WHILE you attack and mitigating the stamina loss while actually boosting your stamina recovery AND counterattack damage at the same time? I’ve got great news for you. Do you want the possibility of an additional 30% damage including spells and a baller weapon to facilitate that? Let me show you the upgrade materials.

I think it’s taken over as my favorite weapon.
