Lightning spear

Right, so yesterday i finished Sen's fortress but whilst i was in there i found something VERY cool - the lightning spear. If you haven't reached Sen's fortress yet then stop reading here as there are spoilers, but if you have completed it then continue reading.

When you're running around on the boulder tracks with boulders following you from behind you'll come to a part where a boulder has gotten stuck in the floor and lodged in. At this point you turn left into a small room with a few large jars and a treasure chest. This chest is a decoy and is actually a monster (known as a mimicry). I killed it and it dropped the lightning spear for me, an amazing weapon which has a strong combination of lightning and physical damage - even more powerful than the later demon spear (which basically does the same thing). It's the first weapon i've found which is more powerful than the drake sword which i can use (for example, it doesn't need a high strength/agility to wield), and can be upgraded using titanite chunks - which can be found or bought from specific merchants pretty easily. Note that if you ascend the lightning spear to it's maximum ascension of +5, you will receive an achievement/trophy. However the final material is very hard to come by - titanite slab.
