The great thing about Dark Souls 3 is that, technically, almost every weapon in the game can be made decent with the use of upgrades and buffs.

However, if it's not "decent" but the very best that you're looking for, you have to look no further than your starting equipment.

The basic twinblades that the sellsword class starts with are secretly one of the strongest weapons in the game, capable of dealing the highest amount of damage in the least amount of time.

The secret to their incredible damage output lies in the quickness of their attack. Your blades can unleash a flurry of blows in seconds, so pairing them up with items that increase your damage for each consecutive attack will allow them to rapidly accumulate extra damage that can down any enemy with ease.

The key items to use with the blades are the Pontiff's Right Eye and the Old Wolf Curved Blade. This said, if your lightning-fast power scaling is somehow not enough for you, you can make it even more overpowered with items and miracles that add elemental damage to it.

Because when it comes to power, there's no such thing as too much!
