What players said was strong
No comparable weapon test in the reviewed sources establishes a universal best weapon. Malkavia recommends trying bone greatswords and Stone Greataxe in one Steam discussion. The quoted Stone Greataxe damage is a Single source player report, not DPS.
What the Steam discussion actually compares
Single source: Malkavia asks whether the other player used Training Greatsword +3, then suggests bone greatswords and a greataxe. Malkavia reports 61 damage for Stone Greataxe and says fighting Basset or Void Knight with it is manageable. The reply does not supply matching upgrade levels, attack timings, enemy defenses, or a test log.
Valhalla Awaits says they had used the wooden +3 weapon, farmed skeletons for a bone option, and later moved to iron. That is a progression anecdote in the same discussion, not a second controlled comparison.
Use the upgrade screen to plan costs
The official screenshot previews Dark Knight Greatsword +1 and lists a base Dark Knight Greatsword among the inputs. It does not show the next Training Greatsword rank or establish which weapon deals more damage. Consult the upgrade page for its Single source quantities.


What I checked
This comparison preserves the commenter and the limits of the comparison. It does not turn a weapon-tree screenshot into a recommendation to follow a particular build.
Questions
Is Stone Greataxe the best weapon?
One commenter likes it. The cited discussion does not establish a best weapon across comparable equipment and encounters.
Is the 61 damage figure official?
No. Single source: it is Malkavia's Steam comment, with no documented DPS test or controlled comparison.
