Best Fists

Weapon Explanation
Elden Ring - Star FistStar Fist ・Heavy attacks can deal a large amount of stance damage especially when buffed with Cragblade.
・Can inflict Blood Loss buildup and proc Bleed.
Elden Ring - PataPata
(DLC)
・Fist weapon with the longest reach. Has comparable reach to Straight Swords while retaining the Fist moveset.
・Good Quality weapon since it gets B-scaling in STR and/or DEX depending on the infusion (Heavy, Keen, or Quality).
・Works really well when infused with Blood since it deals 82 buildup. Makes for quick Bleed procs due to the fist moveset.
Elden Ring - Poisoned HandPoisoned Hand
(DLC)
・Synergizes with buffs that proc when Poison is applied.
・Its ash of war, Poison Spear-Hand Strike, can proc poison in 1-2 casts.
Elden Ring - Cipher PataCipher Pata ・Really good Fist weapon for pure Faith builds (A-scaling at +10); comparable to the Coded Sword.
・Its ash of war, Unblockable Blade, goes through shields. This makes it perfect as a melee damage option for Faith spellcasters.
