It's very easy to just tip your R2 button mistakenly if you're standing in front of poor Andrei. Cost me about 114000 souls for absolution. Yay.
On a nicer note, I somehow managed to kill Quelaag in one try.....BARELY. I'm looking into a new weapon now after the Drake sword. Currently got a Raw Zweilander +1 and a Divine Claymore. Was thinking of a getting a faster weapon too |
Congrats on beating Quelaag on the first try. Well, the Black Knight weapons (except the swords) are pretty fast for their size (especially the Greataxe, it's as fast as normal sized axes and swords) and hit for high damage, the problem is getting them to drop as most Black Knights are one time affairs only, except for the ones in the final area.
Since you're using Zweihanders and Claymores, I understand that you're going for a STR build or at least have a high enough STR. Did you fight against Maneater Mildred on Blightown? The Meat Cleaver she drops is a pretty good weapon (and fast for it's size), especially if you level it up to +15 and invest some points in intelligence so you can buff it up even more with Magic Weapon sorcery. With Crystal Magic Weapon, a Meat Cleaver +15 (or anything above +10) can hit for over 600 attack (at STR >30).
Any kind of Spear is a good alternative as well, such as the Halberd or the Winged Spear, but you'll have to invest some points in Dex to able to use them. The Gravelord Sword found later in the game is also one of the best hard hitting weapons in the game and benefits a STR build looking for fast hitting weapons, though it cannot be buffed by magic nor by resins.
Any other kind of fast hitting weapons, such as the curved swords or curved greatswords require a good amount of Dex to use, as it's also the stat that scales the most for them, which probably doesn't benefit your build if you have more STR than Dex.

I'm more of a INT build with STR close behind, so Butcher Knife might be a good option (yea i fought Mildred). I was looking for one of those Black Knight weapons, but all I have is the Halberd which I can't wield as yet. Thanks!
