15 Best Strength Weapons In Elden Ring
Elden Ring is a triumph from FromSoftware, and it is easily one of the most expansive experiences that the team has created. A part of the freedom it offers lies in the great variety of weapons. One of the more popular builds in the Dark Souls and wider Soulsborne series is the Strength-focused build, due to its high damage and unique weapons.
Elden Ring clearly takes inspiration from past games with some of its Strength weapons, but the new entries to the series are some of the most devastating, heavy-hitting and brutal yet. Here are some *of the best strength weapons Elden Ring has to offer.
Updated August 14, 2022 By David Herbold: Now that Elden Ring has been out for a couple of months, and players have a better handle on the weapons that scale best with each stat, we thought we'd add some more weapons that are perfect for any aspiring Strength build. Note that pretty much any weapon becomes a Strength weapon if imbued with the heavy enchantment, but this list only covers weapons that already scale with Strength. On with the best Elden Ring strength weapons!
THEGAMER VIDEO OF THE DAY
16 Brick Hammer
15
Strength Requirement: 26
Stat Scaling at Max Level: B
Elden Ring certainly throws items and weapons at you a lot more slowly than other FromSoftware titles, at least in the early game. This is probably due to the introduction of crafting to the series as well as the much larger map, but it results in the early game being a little rough if you end up disliking your starting weapon.
Luckily for you, the Rusted Anchor is a great choice for an early Strength weapon, and is easy to find. It can be found in Morne Tunnel in the south of the map on the Weeping Peninsula. The weapon requires 26 Strength to wield, but this can be lowered to 18 if you decide to two-hand the weapon.
9 Lordsworn's Greatsword
Strength Requirement: 16
Stat Scaling at Max Level: C
This will probably be most players' first obtained weapon if they intend to use a Strength build in Elden Ring. The weapon is found in a carriage chest right next to the Gatefront Ruins. Compared to most of the the unique starting classes' weapons, this sword is a great deal more powerful.
It also has an effective Skill built-in, the Upward Cut, that can easily take care of lower-level enemies. The Lordworn's Greatsword excels most of all at interrupting enemy attacks, so use this weapon if you prefer to overwhelm the enemy mid-attack rather than waiting to counter.
8 Morning Star
Strength Requirement: 12
Stat Scaling at Max Level: C
Another early game weapon, the Morning Star can also be found on the Weeping Peninsula on the main road from Limgrave. It is in the same kind of carriage as the previous Lordsworn's Greatsword. The weapon has an excellent move set and the Kick skill, which can break guarding enemies' stances very effectively. The best feature of the weapon, however, is the Hemorrhage effect it applies when damaging an enemy.
If you can land a couple of hits on a foe and build up the bleed, they will take a large chunk of damage. This damage is percentage-based, which means that even high-health enemies like dragons will take significant damage.
7 Godskin Stitcher
Strength Requirement: 14
Dexterity Requirement: 17
STR Stat Scaling at Max Level: C
DEX Stat Scaling at Max Level: C
The Godskin Stitcher is a unique weapon to say the least. Part of what makes this weapon special is the fact that it is a part of a new weapon class: Heavy Thrusting Swords. These blades have the thrust attacks of rapiers, but are significantly larger than normal thrusting weapons.
The biggest downside is the dual scaling, which means that this weapon isn't suited to a pure Strength build. In this case, you'll want to complement your high Strength with Dexterity. Those interested in crafting a quality build will find the Godskin Stitcher a good candidate for a main weapon. The sword can be found at Volcano Manor after defeating the Godskin Noble.
6 Clawmark Seal
Strength Requirement: 4
Faith Requirement: 10
STR Stat Scaling at Max Level: B
FAI Stat Scaling at Max Level: B
Usually, the spellcasting and melee playstyles are fairly separate in Souls games. This seal, which allows for the casting of Incantations, breaks that mold. The Clawmark Seal, which is obtained through D, Hunter of the Dead's quest (one of many intriguing side quests in the game) after talking and handing Deathroot to Gurranq, uniquely scales with Strength along with the usual Faith.
Combined with the Bestial Incantations' low Faith stat requirements and the high damage they will deal (because they are enhanced by the seal), this makes the Clawmark Seal very unique and effective. It makes a high Strength build with a small amount of Faith usage actually viable, and very fun too.
5 Dragon Halberd
Strength Requirement: 22
Dexterity Requirement: 10
STR Stat Scaling at Max Level: B
DEX Stat Scaling at Max Level: C
This one is another Strength-focused weapon that requires some investment in the Dexterity stat to reach its true potential. The Dragon Halberd has a long reach, as well as a rather fast attack speed and sweeping attacks for crowd control. However, its weapon Skill, Spinning Slash, truly shines.
Using this ability results in an average spin attack, but it also temporarily enchants the weapon with Frost and Lightning damage in addition to its existing physical damage. This weapon is dropped by the semi-hidden Dragonkin Soldier boss in the Siofra River underground area.
4 Prelate's Inferno Crozier
Strength Requirement: 45
Stat Scaling at Max Level: B
In the Souls series, references to classic weapons are common. The Prelate's Inferno Crozier is one example, clearly resembling Smough's Great Hammer from Dark Souls. The weapon has a similar low attack speed and moveset to its original form. This formidable hammer can be obtained by killing an enemy who uses it at Fort Laiedd on Mount Gelmir.
The weapon's Skill is especially unique, with the player using the hammer in a shovel-like fashion: they charge at enemies and then scoop them up in a fiery whirlpool. This is one of the few more unique weapons that can actually have its Ash of War changed, too. You're free to add your favorite to it.
3 Greatsword
Strength Requirement: 31
Dexterity Requirement: 12
STR Stat Scaling at Max Level: B
DEX Stat Scaling at Max Level: D
Yet another weapon from the past, the Greatsword actually seems to be a reference to the Manga Berserk, in which the main character wields a similarly massive blade. This weapon features excellent Strength scaling that can be further improved if you decide to add an Ash of War to it and choose the heavy enchantment.
The Lion's Claw Ash of War is a particularly popular choice for this sword, as it also references Berserk. The only real downside is the same as most of the mighty Colossal weapons in Elden Ring: their very slow attack speed. The Greatsword can be found in the Dragonbarrow region of Caelid, near the Caelem Ruins.
2 Grafted Blade Greatsword
Strength Requirement: 40
Dexterity Requirement: 14
STR Stat Scaling at Max Level: C
DEX Stat Scaling at Max Level: E
The Grafted Blade Greatsword might be directly from the mind of George R.R. Martin, who helped with the creative process of Elden Ring. It heavily resembles the Iron Throne from Game of Thrones. It can be obtained by killing the boss at the southmost point of the Weeping Peninsula. The weapon Skill, Oath of Vengeance, may convince you to favor this one over other Strength-focused weapons.
When activated, the Skill increases all of your character's stats by five for 30 seconds. To make the deal even sweeter, your poise is increased during the buff, which means that enemy attacks will not interrupt your own strikes. This additional effect could easily sway a tricky battle in your favor.
1 Giant-Crusher
Strength Requirement: 60
Stat Scaling at Max Level: B
The Giant-Crusher has the highest Strength stat requirement in Elden Ring, and for good reason. It's incredibly powerful, with very high stagger potential against enemies. Of course, the downside is that the weapon will leave you entirely open to attacks if you miss.
It could be worth it, though, to instantly kill any lower-leveled enemies you come across. Another downside of the weapon is that it is located in an endgame area, near the Outer Wall Phantom Tree site of grace. Still, there is always New Game Plus for that, plus a significant amount of hidden areas you may have missed too.
