All in the title. I'm playing Dark Souls for the first time in like 5 or 6 years on PC. I've killed every Black Knight I've encountered so far and I've completed the return to the Asylum and just now starting Undead Burg.
I have not gotten a single weapon, armor, or shield drop from any of these kills. Only titanite. I really wanted to try one of the Black Knight weapons cause I love their designs, but I cannot get them to drop.
Some kills I have high humanity, some I don't. But still after so many it's getting rather annoying. Is this an issue that's known, am I unlucky, or just missing something?

just use cheat engine to give you the items
Adam Clark
Use a Cheat Engine table and give one to yourself. It's really just a matter of luck to get a weapon though. I was lucky my first playthrough and got a BKH from the Burg and used it the whole game. Speedrunners rush BK weapons and if they don't get them they restart the run.
Lincoln Gray
Sorry I'm autistic I can't bring myself to cheat. Is there no bug known on PC for this? It just seems so unlikely that I haven't gotten a single drop off of anything.
Gabriel Murphy
>not backing up your save and killing the same black knight over and over until you get the drop Lmao @ur life. Also they don't drop their armor.
Daniel Allen

Black knight weapons are overpowered for pve so they have very low drop rate. It's not a bug.
Luke James
If you wait long enough, you'll get all you need (it's extremely late game, though). NG+ is where the real fun's at, anyway, so keep those stats optimal. But if you really want a NG BK playthrough, start a game and rush to the knight you want: if they don't drop it, start over: should take about a half hour for each attempt.
Jordan Hill
All these people saying to cheat, literal degenerates
If the weapon doesn't drop, it's simply not meant to be op. Also you find the armor at the kiln of the first flame before you fight Gwyn
Leo Morales
I don't think the ones in the asylum can drop weapons.
But it's rare anyway, it's not uncommon to go an entire playthrough without getting a Black Knight weapon. They are farmable in the Kiln though.
David Reed
How OP can they be? Im using an Uchi+5 and I kill most bosses in a couple hits. Can't be much worse than that can it?
Might be forced to do this. I really want the weapon.
I knew about this, but thanks for telling me anyway user.
I guess I underestimated how rare they are. I just kinda assumed they weren't cause I always see people with them. I'm a dumbass apparently.
Parker Mitchell
Also, if you're extremly unlucky, you can farmt hese guys on the Kiln. They respawn and you could use bk weapons for ng+
But if you want it for NG, they've very low drop chances and you wont always egt what you want. Also you could ask some players to drop it for you (but its mostly created via CE after all)
Noah Butler
>might be forced to do this That's literally cheating. You said you don't want to cheat.
Leo Stewart
20% chance to drop their weapon 5% chance to drop their shields Use 10 humanity or/and wait until GCS ring to increase chances
I got the BKS on my first playthrough and it felt like I broke the game cos Taurus died in 3-4 hits, so you may want to not use them to get better first.
Landon Young
Bk weapons need low stats for dmg and moveset they get. maxed out have similiar dps to other weapons and moveset and scaling is what matters
Swords are heavy and hitstun liek truck halberd have insane reach and hits hard Axe can basicaly send most enemies flying
Anthony Allen
ITT OP is autistic
Brody Gray
Might be forced to restarting? That ain't cheating nigga.
Like I said in an earlier post, I'm running an Uchi right now and I'm shredding bosses. I don't care too much about it being super difficult. Besides I'm running a no shield run cause I'm edgy, so there's challenge enough I think.
Colton Perry
Then restart the game over and over until you get whatever BK weapon you desire, easiest being the BKS at Burg which takes like 20-30 minutes a run. Or just use your Uchi and wait until near the end of the game and enjoy them in NG+. The BKS is my fave cos it only requires 20 STR.
Christopher Flores
Easiest is the BKH, which is undebatably the most broken pve weapon. You can get it earlier than BKS if you pick the master key. But if you're going to keep restarting might aswell just backup your save right before you kill the black knight.
Tyler Davis
quick rundown on these guys?
Isaac Howard
if you won't cheat pop like 30 humanity and farm kiln, if you don't get drops then RNjesus has forsaken you.
Gavin Reyes
>restarting a run to get a drop is cheating Wow, i've been cheating at racing games for years Every speedrunner of every game is a massive fucking hacker.
William Carter
What about the great club? I also started playing recently
Cooper Cox
depends on the build you want man, you want to use big heavy weapons focused on stunlocking enemies?
Tyler Sullivan
Not even as good as Large Club. Literally can't even come close to the BIG BLACK Halberd.
Nolan Murphy
Boss dont get stunned by my +15 great club. Like never. Why is this?
Liam Fisher
Bosses don't tend to stagger as much in DS1
Camden Peterson
Does Painting Guardian Sword buffed with Darkmoon Blade still do the highest dps?
Landon Martin
True, but you can stagger most non-boss enemies with enough poise damage.
Nolan Reed
You can't get BKH in the Burg.
Jordan Hall
Any curved sword would work at this point. You'll melt any boss with a buff like that.
Joshua Nelson
But most large non boss enemies can be easily kited.
Cameron Rodriguez
European fraud physicists that had some media lights shine on them at some point.
