In Elden Ring, there are various stats that you can level up in the game. One of them is dexterity. When it comes to physical weapons dexterity and strength are often the two different branching paths<\/strong>. Most weapons will have you focus on either having a higher strength stat or a higher dexterity stat.<\/p>\n

The weapons that typically fall under dexterity are katanas<\/strong>. Katanas are great for inflicting bleeding damage and can quickly cut down your foes. To make sure you can fully utilize these weapons, you will need to invest your stats into dexterity. Without these investments, you will get diminishing returns in damage when using dexterity-focused weapons.<\/p>\n
