For beginner Elden Ring players looking to deal quick damage to enemies and still have time to roll out of the way, dexterity weapons are the way to go. They are essential for gamers who still want a high damage output without being slowed down by larger weapons and armor. Unfortunately, there are a lot of weapons to choose from in the game, which can make the choice very overwhelming at first. So for Elden Ring fans looking for some guidance in a weapon to focus upgrading, here are some excellent options of Elden Ring dex weapons.
Best Dex Weapons in Elden Ring
Uchigatana Dex Weapon
The Uchigatana is a powerful katana weapon that scales well with Strength and Dexterity stats. Additionally, it does a lot of slashing and piercing damage to enemies with a diverse moveset. And when paired with the Unsheathe skill, gamers can land strong attacks faster, making them a force to be reckoned with. Another important note is that this weapon already comes equipped when players choose the Samurai starting class in Elden Ring
Twinblade Dex Weapon
The Twinblade is another good Elden Ring dex weapon that also has good scaling stats with strength and dexterity. It also comes with the spinning slash ability. The spinning slash ability is a 360 attack that is great for when enemies from all angles surround players. However, gamers will need to plan ahead and make a build that specifically specializes in dual-wielding weapons in Elden Ring, such as the warrior class.
Vyke’s War Spear Dex Weapon
In the past, spears have gotten mixed reviews from players about whether or not they are effective in combat. However, with the inclusion of mounted combat in Elden Ring, spears have become sought after once again for their helpful range. And Vyke’s War Spear is right at the top of the list with its Frezyflame Thrust Ability. FrezyFlame Thrust plunges the spear into the ground and creates a massive explosion, giving enemies and both the player the madness status effect.
Morgott’s Cursed Sword Dex Weapon

Firstly, the cursed sword carries the bleed passive, which is useful in combat. Secondly, the weapons skill “Cursed Blood Slice” can only be done with this weapon and is a powerful fiery downward slash. Finally, cursed Blood Slice can either be used by itself or at the end of a combo.
