Elden Ring: Nightreign’s characters each specialize in a specific class of weapons. Wylder has greatswords, Guardian gets halberds, duchess gets daggers, ironeye gets bows, raider gets colossal weapons (and great hammers and axes), recluse gets staves, revenant gets seals, and executor gets katanas. The typical player will try to build for these weapons and use them as much as possible on their respective characters.
BUT WHAT IF I TOLD YOU that you can use… OTHER weapons, too? Hi everyone, my name’s DIABETOR and today I’m gonna tell you all about alternative weapon choices for your chosen nightfarer, and give you reasons to use them and tips to get the most out of them.
