The Elden Ring allows you to dual wield one of your weapons. Dual-wielding allows you to attack from multiple angles at the same time. If you’re wondering how to dual-wield, there are a few things you should know. Here’s a quick guide. Using the right spells and skills will allow you to successfully use both weapons. Then, you can switch weapons as needed.

Unsheathed
While Unsheathe is one of the best weapons in the game, it’s still limited in its use. While it does deal damage to enemies in a small area around the user, the most effective use of it is to damage all enemies within a radius. The Moonveil, for example, is one of the most powerful weapons in the game. The skill and leading buildup of a normal katana are carried over to the Moonveil’s ability to deal massive damage.
Dual wielding, also known as Power Stance, involves selecting the same weapon for both your left and right hands. This gives you two different combinations of attacks, which may differ based on the type of weapon you use. While this leaves you wide open to enemies, it’s often worth it for a high amount of damage. Dual wielding will also allow you to build status effects in a short period of time.
Coded Sword
If you want to learn how to dual wield the Coded Sword, you must first obtain it. The Coded Sword is a unique, jagged-looking sword. Its primary role is to deal holy damage, but it is not effective on other types of damage. The Coded Sword is a very useful weapon for high-Faith builds, largely because it has B in FAI-scaling.
The Dark Moon Greatsword is a special sword in Elden Ring that rewards players for completing Ranni’s quests. You can equip it at the Cathedral of Manus Celes. It is a powerful weapon that fires waves of light that can destroy entire groups of enemies at once. It also leaves a dark, star-filled cloud in its wake. However, you must remember that dual wielding requires high intelligence and faith.
While two-handed weapons are not always obvious, two-handed weapons have a huge offensive potential. While it’s not obvious at first, a two-handed weapon allows you to maximize your damage. In Elden Ring, this technique is called the Power Stance. So, let’s take a closer look at how to dual wield a coded sword in the game.
Magic Estoc
You can wield two Estocs simultaneously to double your damage. This weapon has a long, hard edge that is excellent for thrusting and slashing attacks. It can also be wielded nimbly and can be found near Liurnia Lake Shore Site of Grace. This weapon scales mostly with Dexterity, the highest scaling grade. Adding points to this attribute will increase your Estoc’s physical damage.
The downside to using a large weapon is that it has low speed. Fortunately, you can compensate for this by equipping a weapon with Bloodhound’s Finesse. While the Bloodhounds Fang isn’t as fast as a Warhammer, it does provide you with a safe retreat attack if you need to. Elden Ring is available for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
Tarnished
For best results, a tarnished dual wield build is focused on the PvP game mode. This build relies heavily on the Fire Scorpion Charm and Fire’s Deadly Sin incantation. Fire’s Deadly Sin procs the Death Blight status effect and kills tarnished players before they can attack. While this build has been around for some time, it has recently gained popularity among players who wish to play as a PvP character.
If you’re looking for the best greatsword and armor set in Elder Ring, check out Guts’ build. It’s strength focused and features a heavy greatsword weapon. It can also smack down enemies and has eventual A scaling. You can also try the Vampire build, which drains enemies’ health on death. A tarnished dual wield can be obtained mid-game.
