If you want to give your weapons Arcane scaling, you will need to obtain and use the Black Whetblade from Nokron, the Eternal City. Similar to the Red-Hot Whetblade, this item requires you to beat Radahn before you can reach its location.
Once you get the Black Whetblade, you will be able to add the Occult, Blood, or Poison affinities to your weapon, granting it Arcane scaling depending on the Ash of War you choose to imprint.
Ashes of War that have an Occult (e.g., Spectral Lance), Blood (e.g., Bloody Slash), or Poison (e.g., Poison Moth Flight) affinity will give your weapon Arcane scaling when imprinted.
If you're using an Arcane build but don't have access to the Black Whetblade, then Ashes of War with Occult, Blood, or Poison affinities are your best bet for adding early game Arcane scaling.
