Fists | Elden Ring Wiki

Fists are a type of Weapon in Elden Ring. Fists can be equipped on both hands and excel in short-range combat, allowing users to perform fast and rapid attacks that can quickly eliminate hostile Enemies.

Fists are compatible with a range of different Ashes of War, allowing you to mix and match for whatever your needs may be.

Fists generally fall under two categories: Strike Damage dealing weapons and Pierce Damage dealing weapons. Cipher Pata excluded. The movesets do not deviate from these two with the exception of the Caestus, Spiked Caestus, and Golem Fist.

Fists are naturally Paired Weapons, meaning when inputting to two-hand these weapons, your character will instead equip a second, duplicate weapon in their off-hand. Grafted Dragon excluded.

Note:Patch 1.08 The speed of some attacks has been increased and the recovery time has been reduced.

Note: Patch 1.09 The hit stun attack from heavy attacks of the Caestus and Spiked Caestus has decreased.

Note: Patch 1.13 Increased poise damage of dual wield attacks of all Fists (in PVP).
