Some players choose weapons for their cosmetic appearance, but in most cases it is advisable to refer to the scaling and Upgrades of weapons to determine if the output is beneficial to the character in pve, pvp or both. Players can craft Character Builds around specific weapons that have specific movesets, deal good damage, or are easily obtained at the level range the player wants to play in.


The player is encouraged to discover and learn the playstyle of weapon that suits their style of play and preference, with subtle parameters affecting the weapon's performance in combat. Weapons are a very strategic and important choice for the player in Dark Souls and Dark Souls Remastered.
