Elden Ring: All Daggers Ranked

Crystal Knife : While it can boast impressive base stats, the Crystal Knife has relatively poor scaling that sets it back. However, it is one of the few options for a dagger player looking to explore an Intelligence-based bu


Apart from the scenery and the main boss of this Legacy Dungeon , there's really nothing new in Miquella's Haligtree or in Elphael. It's an area filled with recycled monsters which would have been fine, but it seems the developers picked the most annoying and least-balanced enemies and dumped all of them in this late-game a

In general, Magic Glintblade and Rock Sling should be more than enough to make your Moonveil Katana build more effective. Magic Glintblade should be cast before entering combat, or during lulls, while Rock Sling is great if an enemy can be easily staggered or is resistant to Magic damage.


If players can get past the goofiness of this armor, wearing it has its rewards. Because the helmet is almost mandatory for anyone running a Poison build. The physical defense is not good and the Poise value is laughable but what is there to expect from an armor made out of fun

It might not look like it, but Elden Ring is also a resource-management game. The most valuable resource, of course, is that red HP bar that needs to be spent wisely in boss fights. What other resources need careful consideration before splurging? Keys. Stonesword Keys , in particular. Opening locked passages that require Stonesword Keys is like a box of chocolates, players never know what they're getting.


Parrying Dagger / Wakizashi : It's difficult to rank the Parry Dagger and the Wakizashi, since, in the right hands, they can be absolutely amazing, but in the wrong hands, they're among the worst weapons in the game. If a player knows how to parry in Elden Ring Dlc Features Ring , though, these can both be paired with other weapons to create unique and devastating builds. Both the Parrying Dagger and Wakizashi unlock a unique moveset when wielded in the off-hand with another weapon, so be sure to equip either another one of these best Elden Ring daggers or a powerful one-handed Sword, like the Uchigat


Bloodstained Dagger : A great no-nonsense choice. Since it's a basic weapon, it can be upgraded to +25 with regular Smithing Stones , but unlike the basic Dagger, it passively applies Bleed. Not only that, but when combined with another Ash of War, the Bloodstained Dagger can apply multiple status effe

Black Knife : The Black Knife hits S-tier primarily for its ability, Blade of Death. Despite a cumbersome animation, the Blade of Death ability does a hefty amount of damage and applies a damage-over-time eff


In order to get to Lake of Rot and eventually, Nokstella, players will also have to complete Ranni's lengthy questline. Eventually, this will lead to the area. Ranni's questline is one of the most complex in Elden Ring , so players will want to follow this gui


Midra Manse is little better than Castle Ensis in terms of scale, feeling more like a linear catacomb than an actual Legacy Dungeon. However, there are a lot more secrets to be discovered here, often hidden behind fake walls or accessible via elevated walkways that might be easy to m


Erdsteel Dagger : A bit of extra reach and the ability to compliment a Faith-based build is nice, but the Erdsteel Dagger takes too much effort to get when players can easily go find better alternati


This weapon has the Mighty Shot weapon skill. The Mighty Shot skill does a lot more damage than a standard shot but requires the player to draw the bow back fully before firing. This is the only light bow with the Mighty Shot skill. Since the Composite Bow is faster than most other bows, it allows the player to fire Mighty Shots faster than the larger bows that typically get this sk


While the basic Dagger can be used as an excellent weapon for a challenge run through Elden Ring , the unique daggers found throughout the game can be exceptionally powerful. In general, like swords, katanas, and other blades, daggers often apply a Bleed status to enemies—an extremely strong status effect in Elden Ring . This means that despite their limitations, daggers tend to be a high-damage, high-mobility choice that rewards players' skills even more than other opti

The Rampart Tower in Stormveil Castle is an important location as it serves as a hub for some secret areas that interconnect. One of those is a Stonesword lock room filled with two enemies that wield greataxes. They're not too tough to defeat. To get to this room, refer to the images below.

Once inside, get to the end of the tunnel to speak with Alexander and progress his quest. Then, light the Lost Grace, and head inside the boss room to fight the Magma Wyrm. Upon defeat, this boss drops Moonveil.


In a title like Elden Ring , where bosses are enormous and their attacks tend to have absurd range, it takes a special kind of player to willingly choose a dagger. In truth, based solely on their short reach alone, daggers are probably one of the most difficult weapons to use in all of Elden Ring . However, when paired with a lighter equipment load, the right Ash of War choice, and a bit of cunning, daggers can actually be one of the most rewarding weapons to
