Weapon Skills or Skills in Nightreign are armament abilities that grant players actions to perform unique offensive and defensive moves from Weapons or Shields that are wielded. In Nightreign, some weapons will now have different skills than what they had in Elden Ring. Weapons in Nightreign are randomly acquired from Chests and Field Boss drops, and will be different every run.

Apart from that, all Weapons in Nightreign have a passive benefit that applies regardless of which hand or slot you put it in, as long as it is equipped, and you can equip up to 6 weapons at once. This page covers a list of all the available weapons skills in Elden Ring Nightreign
