Each entry will be discussed in detail below.

S Tier

Let’s start with the S tier of the Elden Ring Weapons Tier List 2023. They are the best Elden Ring weapons. These are exceptional weapons, and they perform well in Elden Ring. Regarding the overall game, no other weapons can compete with those in the S tier. Give them a try if boosting your competitiveness is your top priority. These S-tier weapons, particularly effective in one-on-one duels, are mandatory for achieving the game’s greatness.

Mohgwyn’s Sacred Spear

The legendary spear that would become the emblem of his dynasty. It is both a weapon and a tool for communication with an external deity who grants power to blood that has been cursed. The mother of all truth wants to be wounded. You must first vanquish Mohg, Lord of Blood, to acquire his Remembrance.

The Sacred Spear of Mohgwyn scales with Power, Magic, and a little Dexterity, making it a great spear. Players whose Arcane stat is high and whose builds are oriented around the bleed specialization might consider using this weapon.

The Sacred Spear of Mohwgyn is a rapid weapon with an extremely long range. It also has a highly powerful passive that causes blood loss over time, which does extra fire devastation. Talismans like Millicent’s Prosthesis, the Winged Sword Insignia, and the Rotten Winged Sword Insignia increase attack power with each subsequent attack, increasing the weapon’s damage output.

The Bloodboon Ritual is excellent for dealing with several foes simultaneously and delivering massive bleed damage over a wide area. The bleeding debuff may be administered more quickly and frequently by raising the weapon’s Arcane characteristic level. Because of its potent weapon skill, which does tremendous damage to numerous foes simultaneously and has a wide area of effect, the weapon is also excellent for competitive play. Subsequently, it is placed at the top of the Elden Ring Weapons Tier List pve.

Godslayer’s Greatsword

Sacred sword formerly used by the Dusk-Eyed Queen, who ruled over the Godskin Apostles before Maliketh’s intervention and led to her downfall. The sword channels the black flames used by the apostles. Dexterity and Strength are proportional to Faith while using the Godslayer’s Greatsword. Strength and Dexterity are scaled equally. Thus, it doesn’t matter which one you choose to invest in to get a damage boost.

Because of its long range and great power, the weapon excels at inflicting Fire damage. It can also shatter an opponent’s shield or Poise with a few blows and is lighter than other Colossal Swords. Use the Queen’s Black Flame weaponry skill to conduct a slashing attack that releases a burst of black flame and immediately follows it up with another slashing strike. The weapon skill has a long casting period, but its Poise is at its highest throughout that time.

It’s great for wiping out hoards of foes and releasing vulnerable bosses to Fire. When an opponent is attacked, their health gradually decreases over time. The impact lasts for a while before eventually diminishing. But the weapon can’t achieve it on its own; you’ll need to cast The Queen’s Black Flame.

Dark Moon Greatsword

A Moon Greatsword was given to the Carian queen’s husband by the monarch herself to fulfill an old custom. You can acquire the weapon by seeing Ranni’s questline all the way through.

The Dark Moon Greatsword can slash far and fast, doing heavy damage. The weapon’s passive effect, Frost Buildup, is useful against various foes and may even increase your damage against bosses impacted by the debuff. The Moonlight Greatsword increases the weapon’s magical damage output and allows the user to take down adversaries from a safe distance.

Phy (Attack)	82
Phy (Guard)	57

Moonveil

The crowning achievement of the Sellian swordsmith. The name “Moonveil” comes from how the light diffuses around the blade when it is stowed. You will not be able to acquire the weapon unless you have successfully vanquished the Magma Wyrm located in the Gael Tunnel in Caelid.

The Moonveil Katana, one of the game’s greatest weapons thanks to its Wisdom and Dexterity scalability and implicit blood loss accumulation, is a useful tool that may be discovered early on. The katana’s passive ability to cause bleeding to accumulate quickly works well with the weapon’s rapid attack speeds. Its default weapon skill, Transient Moonlight, may kill single or multiple unshielded foes with a single attack if they have low Poise.

Phy (Attack)	73
Phy (Guard)	31

Eleonora Poleblade

Twin Naginata made in the Land of Reeds. Eleonora selected violet Bloody Finger to be her weapon of choice. Her skill with the blade was so great that her assault was compared to a tornado; nonetheless, her legacy will be tainted by the blood of the damned since she shed it.

You may increase your physical attack effectiveness by increasing your Dexterity and Arcane skill ranks while using Eleonora’s Poleblade. If you want to do even more damage with your assaults, the Prosthesis-Wearer Heirloom can help you out. When you raise your Arcane level, the passive effect of this weapon and the harm it does via its weapon ability improve.

In combat, the weapon causes blood loss to accumulate and, when full, inflicts Hemorrhage, delivering damage proportional to the target’s health. When Hemorrhage is applied to you or your adversaries, the talisman Lord of Blood’s Exultation and the headgear White Mask are useful pieces of additional equipment that will improve the damage of your physical assaults.

Against foes or bosses with poor Fire resistance, Eleonora’s Poleblade may deliver extra Fire damage. Normal attacks are quick slashes that have decent range and may damage numerous foes at once. Its charged, powerful strike animations may spin horizontally wide like a slice or slash. Its lack of a rapid blood loss accumulation rate is more than made up for by its capacity to land many strikes in rapid succession.

Although it may be used with Ashes of War, itn already has the ability Bloodblade Dance. The user may quickly narrow the distance between them and the attacker by jumping toward them and whirling rapidly to deliver many blows. If you want to increase the damage done by your strikes by a significant amount, the Rotten Winged Sword is a fantastic talisman to use with the weapon.

Damage from it may be piled up quickly, causing blood loss and staggering foes, and the talent’s many hits can be used to great effect. In competitive play, a jumping strike may startle an opponent and reduce the gap against far-ranged mages.

Rivers of  Blood

Okina’s sword from Reedland. A wretched implement that has killed too many men to count. The Lord of Blood, Mohg, offered Okina a lifestyle of a demon, for whom desire would never be unsatisfied when he felt Okina’s blade and madness against his skin for the first time.

You must vanquish Bloody Finger Okina to claim the weapon. He appears on the Mountain peaks of the Giants, specifically in the vicinity of the Cathedral of Repose. The Katana is a powerful end-game weapon that can inflict a great number of destruction in a short period. Arcane Attribute upgrades improve its loss of blood buildup passively and its broad and long-range strikes. When facing up against many foes, the Corpse Piler weaponry practice comes in handy.

Phy (Attack)	76
Phy (Guard)	36

A Tier

Moving on to the A tier of the Elden Ring Weapons Tier List pvp. The weapons of the current tier are great examples of their kind, albeit not quite up to the standards of S-tier weapons. Some players could disagree with where I put these weapons or think they’re S-tier. All of the weapons in the A tier have spectacular wielding and are of excellent caliber. They’re fantastic as an attacking force.

Royal Greatsword

Royal Carian styled greatsword. Blaidd’s preferred weapon. Blaidd signed an oath that he would serve no master other than Ranni, defying the destiny he was born to. The blade was charged with icy magic while the oath was taken to prove it was real. Wide, slow-moving blows with the Royal Greatsword are great for wiping out groups of foes and piercing high Poise or shields.

You can easily exchange blows with fast-moving foes thanks to the weapon’s long-range and high Poise attacks. Wolf’s Assault is a devastating weapon ability that does high area-of-effect damage and knocks back foes. The animation of the ability grants the wearer hyper armor and a wide variety of benefits.

Cleanrot Spear

In the battle with Melania, Blade of Miquela, the Cleanrot Knights brandished this spear. The golden sword with wings does holy damage. The little shield has an incantation on it that prevents rust. When using the Cleanrot Spear, your physical attack effectiveness will increase proportionally with your Strength or Dexterity level. If you want more damage, equip the Starscourge Heirloom or the Prosthesis-Wearer Heirloom.

The weapon’s Holy damage scales with your Faith; therefore, leveling up your Faith will likewise level up your weapon’s damage. Boosting your Faith with the Twin Finger Heirloom will allow you to do more damage with each strike.When equipped, the weapon’s passive ability increases your defense from Scarlet Rot by 50. 

Attacks made with the Cleanrot Spear’s blade provide extra Holy damage to foes with weak Holy tolerance. Most notably, Skeletons and Zombies are vulnerable to Holy Damage’s devastating effects. When combined with Sacred Scorpion Charm, your attacks will be much more damaged.

The weapon’s default skill is Sacred Phalanx, which cannot be enhanced using Ashes of War. At the user’s command, the spear is swung upward, and a swarm of golden spears is released from the earth. It’s powerful enough to disorient and slow down attackers who don’t prepare for it. Be aware that you are vulnerable to assaults while using the trait, so stand at a slight distance from the enemy before using it. So, it is placed in the A tier.

Phy (Attack)	102
Phy (Guard)	49

Wing of Astel

Sword forged from a feathered wing, imbued with the power of the bright stars. When hit hard, a wave of magical light is released. Picked up at Uhl Palace, in the chest atop one of the columns. From the Nokstella, Eternal Palace Point of Grace, go to the east of the river, and you’ll find the staircase leading up. If you see an ant carrying a shield, follow in its footsteps. A stone path will lead you to the chest.

Strength is ranked lower on the Wing of Astel’s scale than Intelligence and Agility. The curved blade is great for gamers whose character builds prioritize Intellect or Dexterity. The direct damage done by the sword increases in proportion to the user’s Dexterity and this effect is amplified while using the Prosthesis-Wearer Heirloom.

When used for a physical assault, the weapon also inflicts damage through magic. Stargazer Heirloom, a talisman that increases your Wisdom and hence your damage dealt, is useful versus foes and bosses that are vulnerable to Magic attacks. Strong strikes launch a blade-like missile that can be fueled to unleash two projectiles in rapid succession, and its swift regular attacks may quickly stun-lock your opponents. It’s a weapon skill like Moonveil’s. However, it doesn’t cost any FP to cast, has a smaller range, and does less damage.

The weapon has the built-in attack skill Nebula Weapon and can’t be imbued with Ashes of War. Magic is then infused into the sword before it is swung diagonally, generating an arch of stars ahead of the user. It stays for a while, then explodes, causing massive damage to several foes.

When there isn’t enough room for the magic arc to expand, the resulting concentration of power and harm is most powerful. The bursting arc is effective against bigger foes since each exploding star has a significant chance of striking its target. Intelligence has a direct correlation with sword skill, hence raising your Intelligence will improve your weapon expertise and the harm caused by your powerful attack projectiles.

B Tier

Below at the B tier of the Elden Ring Weapon Tier List. While they may not compare in strength to A-tier weapons, B-tier weapons nonetheless have a certain attraction. The use of such weapons has both positive and negative aspects. They seem like ordinary weapons since they don’t have any distinguishing features.  All other types of weapons in the lower tiers might be considered inferior in comparison. They seem somewhat basic at first glance, yet their potential is great in the appropriate setting. You shouldn’t feel bad about exploring them.

Crystal Knife

A blade honed from a block of the hard crystal. The glintstone miners’ trademark weapon. The sword is enchanted with mild magic since it is used to mine glintstone from shattered rock. At D, the weapon scales evenly with Intelligence, Charisma, and Wisdom. However, at +4 and higher, Intelligence receives a substantially larger increase.

It’s a good melee weapon that provides extra Magic damage, making it a good choice for individuals with high Intellect and Mage builds. The Magic damage can be further boosted by equipping the talisman Stargazer Heirloom, which boosts one’s Intelligence. Quickstep, the default weapon ability that allows the user to conduct a dash in any way to evade assaults and look for chances to strike your opponent, cannot be combined with Ashes of War.

Phy (Attack)	82
Phy (Guard)	32

Bloodhound’s Fang

The Bloodhound Knights’ greatsword is curved, and its blade is softly undulating. A terrifying sword that can deliver severe blows even while in the air. Blood Hound’s Fang is best for players who want to specialize in Strength or Dexterity builds since its primary scaling is with those attributes, and its passively gained blood loss is good.

It’s a useful early-game weapon that’s simple to get. The weapon’s sluggish animation is offset by its great range and broad assaults, making it ideal for taking on large groups of foes.

Phy (Attack)	141
Phy (Guard)	68

Cipher Pata

The Cipher Pata is a purely Holy damage-dealing Faith weapon that scales only with the Faith attribute. When you equip the talisman Two Fingers Heirloom, which increases your Faith stat, your attacks will do more damage. It shines brightest against foes that have little defense against holy spells. Holy Damage is handy against Skeletons since it prevents them from reviving after being killed.

Considering the weapon’s lack of weight, it can be power-stance alongside any other arsenal of weapons without causing the user any discomfort. Unblockable Blade is an automatic weapon skill for this item, and it cannot be merged with Ashes of War. With the ability, the user launches an unstoppable forward thrust.

You can boost the damage done by the strike more with the Sacred Scorpion Charm talisman, making it useful against foes and players who employ shields or hold a blocked position. Since the effectiveness of the weapon power scales directly with Faith, increasing the attribute also increases the effectiveness of the weapon.

Nagakiba

Large and deadly katana blade. The weapon that Yura, the hunter of Bloody Fingers, is known for. Its intimidating length, reminiscent of a strengthened spear, may be used for effective thrusting strikes. Obtained by finishing the questline of Bloody Finger Hunter Yura.

Your first encounter with Yura is next to the Seaside Ruins, Spot of Grace, behind the ruins of a fallen tower arch. The Nagakiba is primarily a Dexterity weapon. However, its initial scaling grade will be the same for both characteristics. If you upgrade it beyond +13, you’ll get a better scaling boost with Dexterity.

The Prosthesis-Wearer Heirloom may further boost the damage of your strikes by improving your Dexterity. You may also modify the standard scalability of this weapon by utilizing various whetblades to alter its affinity and make it scale alongside your other attributes effectively.

The weapon has fantastic range and a distinctive motion for each of its two attacks. It features long-range piercing strikes that may be employed efficiently against several adversaries and broad-slashing regular attacks that can be linked into a five-hit combination. It is also a strong Katana for PvP, and its long reach makes it easy to catch evading opponents when used in the right hand with a power stance.

An accumulation of blood loss is certain, thanks to Nagakiba’s assaults. Topping the meter up will cause Hemorrhage on an adversary and significant harm linked to their HP. The weapon’s swift strikes may be used to impart status effects quickly, and the passive can be supplemented by either Poison or Frostbite. While Hemorrhage is active, the talisman Lords of Blood’s Exultation and the headgear White Mask are useful pieces of additional equipment that may improve the impact of your direct strikes.

Ashes of War may also be added to the weapon, which already possesses the ability “Piercing Fang.” When used, the user raises their weapon horizontally over their head and thrusts forward with devastating force. The ability is beneficial against foes that protect themselves with shields since it enables the user to do massive amounts of physical damage while also bleeding out.

Phy (Attack)	115
Phy (Guard)	49

C Tier

Consequently, at the C tier of the Elden Ring Weapons Tier list. These two weapons are so similar that they belong to the same category. There is just a little role for these weapons to play. No weapon in the C tier is worth putting in the effort if you already have weapons from higher tiers because they are much weaker.  

Reduvia

Dagger with a sharp point and a pronounced curvature. Those who serve the Lord of Blood use it. When inserted, the blade rips through the skin and causes horrific bleeding. This weapon is always dripping blood, a proud reminder of the effectiveness of its gruesome design. Beating the Invading NPC outside of Murkwater Cave will get you Reduvia.

Your best bet if you’re having trouble defeating him is to get some distance and hope another NPC joins the fight on your side after some time has passed. The NPC can be found near the entry to Murkwater Cave, which can be reached from Gate front Ruins by following the trail eastward and then descending the hill.

Reduvia is a powerful bleed dagger that mainly increases with Arcane and Dexterity, making it well-suited to players who have prioritized the development of these two skills. It’s a resource that can be gathered early on and used even as you go through the game’s later stages. Most adversaries and bosses in the gameplay are easily defeated when under its effects, and it causes significant damage. Its swift assaults let you use it quickly, and coupling it with Lord of Blood’s Exultation increases your strike strength by 20% when blood loss is inflicted on you or nearby foes.

With higher Arcane levels, you may inflict the debuff in fewer strikes due to the weapon’s increased blood loss buildup. The default ability for Reduvia Every strike with a Reduvia Blood Blade increases the cumulative blood loss and damage done from a short distance. Since the bleed impact represents a percentage of your target’s HP, the weapon ability is best used against bosses or foes with huge health pools.

Giant-Crusher

A hammer was crafted from a rock in the War of the Giants. Heavy enough to be considered among the greatest weapons in the Lands Between. This weapon was mostly abandoned after giants were defeated and humanity turned violently against itself. Compared to our ancestors, we humans are weaklings.

Similar Article: Elden Ring Bosses Tier List: Top 30 RANKED

If you’re going to employ the Giant-Crusher, you should outfit yourself with the most imposing armor you can. It takes a while to get going with its assaults, but once they connect, they’re devastating. Staggering out of your assaults is easy if you don’t have adequate composure.

You may also utilize the Endure ability to improve your composure. Take note that its duration is brief, but the FP expense is little, and it may be used again. Because of its limited range, the Giant-Crusher is best used for closing gaps with its heavy assault or leap attack. A weapon with 88 Protective Guard is useful for blocking situations when a shield isn’t available.

Phy (Attack)	155
Phy (Guard)	88

D Tier

Lastly, we have the D tier of the Elden Ring Weapon tier list 2023. Using a weapon from the D tier is meaningless, which is where the game’s worst weapons are kept. There isn’t much specialization here regarding these weapons, so expect to put in a lot of effort. Because of this, they need to be placed in a proper environment where they may succeed. You may be the best player in the world, but if you utilize these weapons, your enemies will destroy you.

Guardian Swordspear

A weapon with a wide blade and a long grip, crafted from the dense wood of ancient trees and honed to a razor’s edge. Experts in battle techniques, the guardian of the Minor Erdtrees use these weapons. The weapon’s effectiveness increases dramatically with practiced hardiness. With the Standard Affinity, the Guardian’s Swordspear scales at +25 for Dexterity and +20 for Strength.

Since the weapon depends on Dexterity, you may maximize its scaling by equipping the Prosthesis-Wearer Heirloom talisman, which increases Dex by +5, and by giving the weapon a Keen affinity, which enhances Dex scaling. When it comes to pure physical damage, the Guardian’s Swordspear is unrivaled by any other Halberd in the game. Like Loretta’s War Sickle, the default strike with the weapon is a diagonal upward thrust. Its rapid assaults make it a potent weapon for foes dealing with status ailments.

Ashes of War may be added to it as well, and it comes with the skill “Spinning Slash” already equipped. It allows the player to spin around and slash at adversaries from all directions. The Rotten Winged Sword Insignia, which increases the damage done by subsequent hits, is a suitable talisman to match the sword. It is possible to apply additional affinities to certain Whetblades so that they may be scaled by your other qualities.

Banished Knight Greatsword

The Banished Knight’s Greatsword is a useful tool for players whose character builds prioritize Strength-based weaponry due to the weapon’s high scaling with that stat and a secondary increase from Dexterity. Raising your Strong attribute with the Starscourge Heirloom talisman may further improve the damage of your physical attacks.

You may modify the weapon’s usual scale by changing your weapon’s reactivity with various wet blades. Staggers and breaks Poise easily and do excellent physical damage compared to other Greatswords. Its regular and powerful strikes have a wide area of effect and may kill numerous foes with a single blow.

You may boost your weapon’s damage by equipping status effects like Hemorrhage, Poison, or Frost. However, remember that the weapon’s powerful assaults make it less efficient for applying debuffs to lesser adversaries. It’s easy to get your hands on, and after you’ve crafted it to your liking, it may be a powerful early-game weapon.

This weapon comes with the Stamp weapon skill and may be upgraded with Ashes of War. An active posture prepares the user to follow up with a powerful upward slashing that can throw adversaries into the air. The Bloodhound Step Ash of War may provide adequate mobility to escape assaults and bridge the gap against nimble adversaries if you power stance th eweapon with the other greatsword.

Greatsword

Piece of super Greatsword made of rough iron. It used its massive weight to smash over obstacles and destroy its enemies. It is utilized to slay even superhuman adversaries, even though wielding it probably needs the bearer to have beyond the world of the simple human.

You can acquire the weapon from the carriage north of the Rotview Balcony Grace Site in Caelid. There are likely to be several enemy fighters guarding it. Since the Greatsword scales mainly with Strength and then Dexterity, it is best suited for Strength-oriented characters. Because of that, it is wise to bolster your Strong characteristic to increase the scalability benefits of your physical damage.

If you use Whetblades to alter the weapon’s affinity, the weapon’s basic scale will increase following your character’s statistics. The weapon’s effectiveness may be increased by equipping status impacts like Hemorrhage, Poison, or Frost. The Greatsword’s enormous attack power compensates for its sluggish and hefty nature. Its broad-cutting blows may knock down and damage numerous foes at once.

When fully charged, the Greatsword could swing in a wide arc, striking nearby foes and disarming them. This sword comes with the Stamp (Upward Cut) attack skill and may be upgraded with Ashes of War. When triggered, the user assumes a ready posture from which he or she may send foes into the air with a powerful upward slash. When paired with the Greatsword, Bloodhound Step may let you move about more freely despite the weapon’s weight.
