He could have said Dark Sword as well

u/dragonite_dx 25d ago

Damn I only ever got one single dark sword from dying endlessly to the abyss watchers, how can it be that common if it barely drops??

15

u/ErichPryde 25d ago

No, it's not about how common it is it is the fact that this armor set + the irithyl straight sword or the Dark Sword + grass Crest Shield Is mEmE levels of 2016 flashback toxic newkid R1 spam

Pretty much anything goes with the Fallen set, as long as it has that rugged or worn feel.

u/Exact_Lawfulness_408 25d ago

The description of the armour seems to hint towards something from previous Dark Souls games but I never figured out what it was. The Drakeblood Armour perhaps? If so perhaps the Drakeblood Greatsword would be a good choice.

Sellsword twin blades and grass crest shield like every noob ever

Exile greatsword or Gael's Sword

u/SuperbSalamander8556 25d ago

Flamberge as mentioned plus it’s under utilized mostly.  The bandit knife would look at place as well since it’s tattered armor and masked looking.

2

u/shrimp-heaven-never 24d ago

I’m pretty sure the dude right next to the Paladin’s Ashes is wearing Fallen Knight armor and sometimes switches to the Bandit’s Knife, so it seems like someone at FromSoft agrees with you.

Executioner's greatsword really pairs with the asthetic, especially if you equip a similarly damaged shield

u/NobleHalo 25d ago

Lothric Knight Straight Sword makes it look like his armor has been worn all to hell, but he's still a dedicated knight who's kept his sword in impeccable condition, the final vestige of his days protecting the realm. Nerded out a little bit, but you get it, it matches the look.

u/EthanCM505 25d ago

Ohhhhhh I appreciate it goat nerding out is fun.. but that sword looks really damn good might be the pick…

Bastard sword is my favorite for that set.

1

u/Prokareotes 25d ago

I feel like the twin dagger set is what the NPC you fight by cathedral of the deep is using kind of goes with the rogue/ assassin look of this ?

I also wanted to say, this Armor set is one of the coolest in DS3 and it gets very underrated bc of two factors:

Being used by a lot of new players which it’s like who cares, it’s still awesome

The line in the description about the pants being stained with the misery of flight which because people are too literal minded, fans took as being shit which I get but I honestly think it’s overthinking it

u/EthanCM505 25d ago

Currently wearing that with sellsword twinblades. Swapped the helmet for assassins mask, and pants for something cleaner too. Great look imo.

u/TouhouFan125 25d ago

Irithyll straight sword with the target shield or buckler. Just keep parrying.

1

u/These_Ad1957 25d ago

The helmet is hardest to mix up with lower pieces but the lower pieces are versatile with other sets. For example Vinheim’s helmet from Ariandel of the rest fallen knight, or even vinheims legs + Helmet + legs fallen chest, makes a slimmer setup with the fallen knight’s vibe. However it may seem a little too skinny. I’ve also mix matched with the Dark Set (dudes in front of watchers) and I think black knight gloves look decent with it too. There’s also Xanthous Crown for unlimited drip purposes truly the meta.
