Common Challenges

Great Katanas in Elden Ring present unique challenges due to their slow attack speeds and demanding dexterity requirements. Players often struggle to effectively wield these weapons, especially against agile enemies.

Innovative Solutions

To overcome these challenges, players should consider optimizing their character’s dexterity stat, enhancing the Great Katana with items like Keen Ashes of War, and employing Jump Attacks or Charged Strong Attacks to compensate for its slow swing speed. Additionally, light armor and Talismans that boost damage can enhance Attack Power and mobility.
