10 Video Game Weapons You'd Be Crazy To Actually Use

3. Handmaid's Ladle - Dark Souls 2

Dark Souls 2
From Software

While the last Dark Souls entry on this list could theoretically be transformed into a decent weapon if you put in the time to really persevere and push through the punishment, the Handmaid's Ladle from the second game is pretty much a joke weapon, designed entirely to attract those looking to make the franchise's signature combat even more difficult.

Designed purely for the kind of player who likes to tackle these titles without levelling up or using only one hand (like our very own Rachel Shackleton), this unassuming ladle provides virtually no protection from the monsters that infest the world of Dark Souls 2.

After all, it's made for soup, not for knocking giants on the head.
