Weapons in Elden Ring require certain levels of stats for players to wield them effectively. Players won’t be able to perform the specific skill for their respective weapons if they do not meet the requirements of the gear.<\/p>\n

Elden Ring features many categories of new weapons, in addition to some repeated weapons from previous Souls titles. The way in which players can upgrade their weapons includes the new Ashes of War<\/a> which provide special boosts, skills, and more.<\/p>\n

Upgrading weapons in Elden Ring<\/h2>\n

The first thing to know about upgrading weapons in Elden Ring is the materials it will require. Players will need to gather plenty of Runes and Smithing Stone Shards to utilize for weapons upgrade purposes.<\/p>\n

Runes and Smithing Stone Shards can be farmed from Troll enemies in Stormhill, as well as mined from Limgrave Tunnels. Once sufficient materials have been gathered, go to the Church of Elleh and access the Smithing Table.<\/p>\n

When upgrading a weapon, levels increase in +1 increments, boosting the damage of the weapon, and sometimes the overall Scaling as well. Ashes of War will also be used to provide alternate skills and stats boosts.<\/p>\n
