How to Add Dexterity (Dex) Scaling to Weapons

Use the Iron or Sanctified Whetblades

Whetblade Effect
Elden Ring - Iron WhetbladeIron Whetblade Keen Affinity:
・Grants Dexterity scaling.
Elden Ring - Sanctified WhetbladeSanctified Whetblade Lightning Affinity:
・Grants Dexterity scaling.
・Adds Lightning Damage.

If you want to give your weapons Dexterity scaling, you will need to obtain and use either the Iron Whetblade from Stormveil Castle or the Sanctified Whetblade from Leyndell, Royal Capital.

Once you get either of the two, you will be able to add either a Keen or Lightning affinity to your weapon, giving it Dexterity scaling in the process. Naturally, a Lightning affinity will also give your weapon lightning damage.

Weapon Stat Scaling Explained

Imprint Ashes of War with Keen or Lightning Affinites

Ashes of War that have Keen (e.g., Unsheathe) or Lightning (e.g., Lightning Ram) affinities will give your weapon Dexterity scaling when imprinted.

If you're using a Dexterity build but don't have access to the Iron or Sanctified Whetblades, then Ashes of War with a Keen affinity are your best bet for adding early game Dexterity scaling. Unfortunately, Lightning ashes are off the table until mid game.
