Gargoyle's Twinblade is a Twinblade in Elden Ring. It has the highest physical attack of any twinblade in the game. It becomes available in the middle of a run.

Gargoyle's Twinblade is a bronze twinblade wielded by the Valiant Gargoyles, its missing parts mended with corpse wax like its wielders, a patchwork of champions. It drops from the pair of Valiant Gargoyles fought at the Siofra Aqueduct below Nokron, Eternal City. It has long reach for a twinblade and deals standard and pierce damage, with Spinning Slash spinning the body to cut everything in range. It is the most Strength-leaning of the infusible twinblades, and it also works well with status affinities. It suits a Strength character, including Strength and Arcane hybrids.

Stats


Gargoyle's Twinblade has the highest physical attack among twinblades at 123 at +0, with C Strength scaling, the best poise damage in its class and a guard boost that ties for best. A Heavy infusion takes its Strength scaling to A, and it is also the strongest Occult twinblade, so it fits Strength and Arcane builds alike.

Skill


Spinning Slash costs 6 / 12 FP. The wielder spins the whole body to slash foes in a wide circle, and an additional input adds two more spins. Small weapons spin quickly, while greatswords, spears, halberds and other large weapons use a slower, sweeping version. The skill cannot be parried. It is the weapon's default Ash of War, so another can take its place.

"Skill favored by dexterous warriors. Slash foes as your body spins. Additional input allows for a follow-up attack."
