Elden Ring has a massive catalog of weapons for you to choose from. There are 32 different types of weapons including Daggers, Swords, Spears, Colossal Weapons, Staves, Seals, and more. As such when you check in the armaments offered in each type the number reaches a whooping 308! That is a lot and most players won’t even try more than 50 out of those 308, so here is a tier list ranking the best weapons in the game.
Since there are a ton of weapons in the game, I will only list the ones that are best suited to be used in your next playthrough. However, if you are using a weapon that isn’t on this list then don’t immediately discard it. It might not work for others but you could dominate the PvP depending on your build and playstyle.
