Transpose the Soul of a Demon with Ludleth of Courland.
Characteristics[]
The Demon's Greataxe is a very potent weapon in the right hands. Since it scales from three different stats, it can surpass most weapons in attack damage at very high soul levels. This is compounded by the fact that many enemies in the game are vulnerable to fire. Thus, it is ideal for players progressing through higher New Game Plus playthroughs.
The Demon's Greataxe is also a strong contender in PvP. The weapon art, Demonic Flare, provides very high poise and unleashes a massive area-of-affect blast, making it an ideal choice for facing multiple foes at once. It also consumes noticeably less stamina than other greataxes.
