Martin, Elden Ring is now finally released for fans to try and explore the fresh new open-world environment. Just like other similar games in the genre, players will be able to create their own characters and have a large variety of different weapon types in Elden Ring to try out and master. These all fit various different playstyles and can be useful in different combat situations, so it’s important to get a general understanding of all of them. So for fans looking to find the fighting style that best suits them, here is a list of all the different Elden Ring weapon types and what they do. All Weapons in Elden Ring

Greataxes are large melee-type weapons that require a lot of strength to wield and are perfect for breaking through enemy defense. They deal massive damage but leave players open to counterattacks if missed. Greatbows
Greatbows are another long-range type weapon that can hit enemies from afar. Unlike normal bows, these can be upgraded with Ashes of War. Great Spears
Great Spears are another melee weapon type that deals huge amounts of damage from a long range. These are also heavy and sacrifice speed, but are great when fighting on horseback in Elden Ring. Greatswords
Greatswords are powerful melee weapons that deal massive damage but sacrifice mobility and speed. Halberds
Halberds are melee weapons that have a long reach but only deal moderate damage. However, their damage type can be modified with Ashes of War, which makes them versatile. Hammers
