If you're going to point out that the "scythe" is actually a bardiche, then you probably should have also mentioned that the BKH is actually a glaive

Yes, indeed.

It should be noted that, if memory serves, the Gargoyle's Halberd will actually outperform the BKH if used alongside buffs like Magic Weapon or Gold Pine Resin. It also has (slightly) better scaling, which gives it an edge towards the end of a playthrough, or into NG+.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbLbdoVW-oc&t=46">0:46</a> unfortunately I have to speak out against this sponsor. A friend of mine got a pc from them as a result of a fundraising organized by a streamer friend of his, and the quality of it was... Suboptimal. Parts he didn't ask for replacing the ones he did want aside, it took them months to get it to him and they only applied thermal paste to half of the cpu. He spent hundreds of his own money and months after to get it working properly after

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbLbdoVW-oc&t=278">4:38</a> Unpopular opinion, but I really loved the mechanic of needing to actually hit an enemy for better Attack recovery, it made for a decent way to balance the high damage

It’s a small thing and maybe silly, but your “hope you’re doing well” at the start of every video never fails to cheer me up.

I just want to say to not sleep on the Gargoyle’s Halberd. It can be buffed with magic and great/crystal magic weapon, and can also be made into a magic or enchanted weapon and does great damage especially if you go with enchanted as a sorcerer. I know it doesn’t look that great at the start, but it’s a really good weapon in the right hands.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbLbdoVW-oc&t=1157">19:17</a> fun halberd story! When I was playing through DS1 with some friends, I managed to get the BKH. I didn’t know how broken it was and only started using it when we were struggling against Manus. Once I did though, I became our main DPS source and was the reason we beat him for the first time! I learned my lesson and kept it by my side for the rest of the game lol

Sorry Lemon Lime, I am compelled to tell you the following.<br>"The Black Knight Halbard is secretly a Mac-11, elongated and carrying an illusion spell. The developers knew Americans liked guns, and they just had to fit an overwhelmingly powerful gun into the game with few people spotting it. The twinkling titanite is actually the refilling ammo and is slowly used up over the gameplay; they just did not implement the system for when it was out of ammo."
