Lords Of The Fallen: 11 Best Radiant Spells

In Radiance, Judgement!

To select the ideal weapon, it's crucial to ensure it complements your chosen build, whether it's a Strength build or a Radiance build, to maximize the benefits from its damage scaling. In this list, we've compiled some of the best weapons for various builds that you can utilize in the game.

10 Bloodlust

• Stats requirement: 13 Agility - 13 Inferno
• Location: Fitzroy's Gorge

The Bloodlust is a short sword with rapid attack patterns and decent damage output. It deals both Physical and Fire damage, inflicting Bleed and Burn on enemies. Thanks to its quick attacks, you can swiftly apply these status effects. When fully upgraded, it boasts a commendable A- scaling in both Agility and Inferno.

What sets the Bloodlust apart is its special ability: after defeating an enemy, you regain a small portion of your health. This feature proves valuable, especially when your Sanguinarix reserves are running low. If you're opting for a hybrid build that combines Agility and Inferno, the Bloodlust is a weapon worth considering.

9 Grinning Axe

• Stats requirement: 17 Inferno
• Location: Bramis Castle

The Grinning Axe is a perfect fit for an Inferno build, delivering a mix of Physical, Fire, and Wither damage. Renowned for its speedy swings, it excels at inflicting both Burn and Ignite status effects on enemies. Even though you acquire it later in the game, this axe proves its worth and can still be a reliable weapon in your next playthrough.

A notable feature of this axe is its S scaling with Inferno when fully upgraded, which is not common of its kind. Pairing the Grinning Axe with an Inferno build ensures that enemies are set ablaze, reducing them to ashes in no time. It's a fiery force to be reckoned with.

8 Harrower Dervla's Crossbow

• Stats requirement: 16 Strength - 20 Agility
• Location: Remembrance of the Unbroken Promise

For those who prefer a ranged build, we made sure to include at least one ranged weapon option since the game caters well to that playstyle. Harrower Dervla's Crossbow stands out as a robust choice, firing three bolts simultaneously, translating to triple damage. It's essential to note that while the crossbow has a base damage, the arrows you equip play a crucial role in increasing its effectiveness, so opt for strong arrows to maximize its potential.

As a secondary weapon, Harrower Dervla's Crossbow proves to be an excellent choice for dealing with distant enemies and delivering high damage with precision.

7 Lightreaper Swords

• Stats requirement: 13 Agility - 13 Inferno
• Location: Remembrance of the Lightreaper

The Lightreaper swords consist of both the right and left-hand versions of the same sword, forming a pair that complements each other perfectly. If you've encountered them in action against the Lightreaper, you've likely witnessed their quick and deadly damage output.

With an A scaling in both Agility and Inferno when fully upgraded, these swords excel at tearing through anyone in their path. What adds to their allure is a special move that activates when both swords are fully upgraded. By performing the combo (L1+R2/LB+RT), a special attack is unleashed, releasing a horizontal fire wave that damages any nearby enemies and deal Fire damage. But keep in mind that this move comes at the cost of a Soulflay charge.

6 Pieta's Sword

• Stats requirement: 25 Radiance
• Location: Remembrance of Pieta, She of Blessed Renewal

Remember that tough battle with Pieta at the game's start? Well, you can now wield her impressive sword. Tailored for Radiance builds, this blade deals Holy damage and has the added kick of inflicting Smite once the status meter is maxed out.

Have you ever wondered how to optimize Pieta's sword in battles? Well, the key lies in dual-wielding these swords. By doing so, you amplify the Smite build-up, leaving your enemies vulnerable to Holy damage the weapon delivers. Isn't that the perfect combination for unleashing devastating attacks?

5 The Iron Wayfarer's Hammer

• Stats requirement: 31 Strength
• Location: The Iron Wayfarer boss

For those seeking a pure Strength weapon to obliterate enemies, The Iron Wayfarer's Hammer is the ultimate choice. Dealing all types of damage, this weapon scales to an impressive S with Strength when fully upgraded. It epitomizes raw power, with most of its attacks interrupting enemies and even occasionally disrupting boss attacks.

If you're running a Strength build, wielding this hammer is a must. Watch as your enemies get staggered and struggle to retaliate while you literally hammer them down.

4 Justice

• Stats requirement: 34 Strength - 20 Radiance
• Location: Revelation Depths

Justice is a strong weapon making a return from the first Lords of the Fallen game. This powerful weapon deals both Physical and Holy damage, excelling in its high built-in Smite that rapidly inflicts status effects on enemies. Being a grand sword, it comes with a slower attack pattern, but this is offset by its substantial damage output.

When fully upgraded, Justice achieves an A+ scaling in Strength, resulting in impressive damage. If your build leans towards Strength, trying out the Justice sword is highly recommended, and the added bonus is that it looks cool too.

3 Bloody Glory

• Stats requirement: 20 Strength - 32 Radiance
• Location: Pilgrim's Perch

If you're adopting a Bleed build, the Bloody Glory is your go-to weapon. With a staggering 300 points, it likely boasts the highest Bleed effect. This sword deals both Physical and Holy damage, featuring an impressive range that allows attacks from a distance. Moreover, enhancing it with the Radiant spell Lacerating Weapon increases the Bleed effect, leaving enemies vulnerable to damage.

Whether you're facing a group of enemies or a boss, the Bloody Glory ensures they bleed to their death.

2 Ravager Gregory's Sword

• Stats requirement: 30 Strength - 30 Radiance
• Location: Can be purchased from Exacter Dunmire after giving him the Ravager Gregory's Rosary

Arguably one of the strongest grand swords in the game, Ravager Gregory's Sword is an all-around excellent weapon. Being a grand sword, it excels at interrupting most enemy attacks and inflicts Physical, Holy, and Wither damage; this means triple suffering for enemies. When fully upgraded, it attains an impressive A+ scaling in both Strength and Radiance.

With its extended reach and exceptionally high damage, Ravager Gregory's Sword is a must-have for those running with a Strength Radiance build. It can serve as your primary weapon, carrying you through various playthroughs, extending its effectiveness even into New Game Plus.

1 Fallen Lord's Sword

• Stats requirement: 30 Inferno
• Location: Lower Calrath

The Fallen Lord's Sword isn't just one of the best in the game; it's the ultimate weapon for an Inferno build. This sword excels at dealing both Physical and Fire damage, boasting perhaps the highest Ignite effect at 300 points. Once inflicted, this causes a burst of Fire damage, leaving enemies vulnerable to further Fire damage.

With the Inferno build enhancing all types of Fire damage, this sword stands out as a powerful option, scaling at an impressive A+. Combine it with additional spells to further enhance its potency, and nothing may stand in your way.
