With the Elden Ring patch 1.09, a lot of weapon types saw some really relevant buffs and nerfs. Quite a few boss weapons were heavily affected even bringing them up in Elden Ring 1.09 weapon ranking should be. In this Elden Ring 1.09 remembrance weapons tier list 2023, we rank the best Str, Dex, Int, Faith, and Arcane weapons!
Elden Ring 1.09 Best Weapons (Str, Dex, Int, Faith, and Arcane) - Elden Ring 1.09 Boss Weapons Tier List
According to Elden Ring 1.09 tier list for the remembrance boss weapons, overall they're doing very well. A lot of them used to be useless or terrible, now most everything is viable, usable, or damn good. So they're doing a good job balancing these! Now, let's talk about our Elden Ring 1.09 boss weapons tier list, we'll work our way from the bottom, and talk about the boss weapons and how they stand in patch 1.09.
D Tier
Winged Greathorn is the only D Tier weapon remaining on the Elden Ring weapons tier list 1.09. The Winged Greathorn is technically better than this patch as a great ax. There's a very important change to this weapon type in terms of how the mechanics of it work with increased speed range and recovery time for various attacks and that's feeling really good. Ultimately its ash of war which provides that debuff to those that stand in it making them weaker and take more damage is incredibly awkward to use. Holding you in place, spreading out a very small cloud very easy to avoid and hard to land even in PvE in lots of circumstances. Ultimately this weapon just doesn't have the power that it needs, the ash of war needs some more relevant love.
C Tier
Moving up to the D tier of Elden Ring boos weapons tier list after patch 1.09 is the wonderful Bastard's Stars. This is up to C tier now and it deserves at least that. So weirdly in 1.08, they actually made fails better in terms of power stance, giving it some very useful improvements there. But they went much further this patch 1.09 increases the attribute scaling of flails which does affect this weapon making it have better scaling and better damage as a whole. But also increases the speed of various attacks, and recovery time and they deal a lot more poise when having it in two hands. It's just gone from an absolute joke of a weapon to actually relevant and quite fun to use as a sort of challenge certainly a lot more viable than it used to be.
Grafted Dragon is a fist weapon that’s slightly worse in this patch due to the weapon type. What they did is they decreased the poise damage, specifically heavy attacks and running heavy attacks or fists and claws. So this weapon now has less potential in PvP which is funny because it wasn't exactly the most relevant weapon. It does have a pretty cool ash of war which can be usable in PvE scenario. But it's a bit awkward it's a bit of a meme pick but it's undeniable that it does have quite the output in certain situations and is quite fun to use if you can make it work.
Giant's Red Braid has received some changes actually some buffs that have increased attack speed on the first attack of its combo and they've reduced the attack recovery time for whips as a whole. This is not relevant because whips are still a very weak weapon type. While their range and move set is fun, meta, and potential viability-wise, they're not very good. They attack a little bit too slowly and they have absolutely no poise in a meta based on 1.08 and beyond where poise and stag are so important.
No changes to this weapon type. It's simply a good great bow able to get some enhancements from the unique ammo type and a fine pick if you want to use great bows. But there's really nothing more to say about it.
B Tier
Moving up to B in the Elden Ring 1.09 Remembrance weapons tier list, we have Axe of Godrick. Thanks to the major weapon type changes, they've increased the attribute scaling of great axes and increased the speed range and recovery time for various attacks which has been very nice for this weapon, with a little bit more damage and the moveset is feeling really good. Combine the speed and damage and range of this weapon with something like Bestial Sling and you can catch people with a much greater speed than they're expecting. You will have a lot of fun with this weapon in PvP than in PvE. The problem is the damage is pathetic and it's still fairly slow. Also it's a shock wave meaning bosses can actually jump the ash of war damage.
Next up on the Elden Ring patch 1.09 weapon ranking for Remembrance, we have the heavy thrusting sword Dragon King's Cragblade which finds itself in an awkward position in this patch. Because it's got another nerf to the heavy thrusting swords again. They've decreased the hitbox size for various attacks for this weapon type off the back of many specific moves, jumping in attacks, various movesets to this weapon type as well as really lowering the poise damage. For PvP specifically, reducing counter thrusting damage back in 1.07. So it's just doing a lot less damage and now it has even less range in a really awkward place. For now, we'll let it barely hold on to B Tier because it still has some output, it's still a very cool weapon and still fun to use!
Finally still in B tier is Marika's Hammer which is better than this patch. It isn’t relevant enough to push it to A Tier. What they did is the hammer type, they've increased the running attack speed and recovery time. That's feeling nice and smooth because you're allowed to combo and smoothly go into the ash of war which does staggering damage if you can land it. It has hyper armor, big hits, and poise damage. If you can land it in PvP, it's going to absolutely crush but to be honest Landing in PvP is quite hard. You can entirely rely on the ash of war for the damage though in PvE, the output there is insanely good per usual.
A Tier
Sacred Relic Sword has been nerfed in this patch specifically the ash of war. Basically what they've done is they made it weaker specifically for free for all a team deathmatch where you would be spamming that massive AOE ash of war to knock people down, deal great damage, and do it from long range. The runarc was so wide, it would just cover basically the entire arena. In 1.09, great swords actually saw a buff where they increased the speed range and recovery time for various attacks, so they're feeling a lot smoother and more effective. The weapon type is doing great right now. So while this one's had a bit of a knock, it's also had a boost, so A Tier still feels fair.
Starscourge Greatsword is pretty cool because they have their ash of war buff in this patch. They took the Starcaller Cry and increased the speed of the follow-up attack that downward slam. Now the first part, the gravity pulling is quite useful in PvP, dealing good damage pulling people in and pressuring them for the follow-up slam. Even though it is faster now, it's still quite predictable and easy to roll in PvP. So we don't rate this as a boost to its tier. It's just a good Elden Ring 1.09 boss weapon with big burst potential and that burst potential is a bit more consistent now. Actually better DPS overall in PvE if you're just spamming the ash of war because it comes out quicker.
Another weapon that's better than this patch is the Hand of Malenia. There's a slight buff to katanas in which they improve the running attack speed and reduced attack recovery time. So those weapons as a whole are feeling a little bit smoother. Especially with the running attack, you can do a running thrust which feels amazing, and has great phantom range, and that being faster is pretty crazy. This weapon by proxy is slightly better and it remains an incredible successive attack weapon due to its ash of war. Overall, a really high DPS weapon feels a bit smoother in this patch.
Axe of Godfrey hasn't had some major changes. There is a note though where they've increased the scaling to colossal weapons, but it's hard to say with this one. Because the scaling seemed the same, it doesn't seem like it's had a real AR boost. This remains in A Tier though thanks to the buffs the Regal Roar and the follow-up hits that come from the heavy attack. It's a nice high AR dangerous colossal weapon with good and interesting potential on its ash of war and the unique heavy.
S Tier
Morgott's Cursed Sword finally makes it to the S tier on Elden Ring 1.09 Remembrance weapons ranking after the amazing buffs to the weapon type in this patch and the ash of war is feeling phenomenal. The weapon type, the curved great sword has increased speed range and recovery time which is feeling insane. It was already a really long weapon but increased range now means you're clipping people at ranges that are just insane. The speed of the attacks means the DPS is better and also it's feeling a lot smoother. The major thing is actually the recovery time though, allowing for pretty infinite combos. It's really deadly as a bleed weapon.
This comes off the nasty nerf to the AOE which is reduced in range from the bloodboon ritual, but still a pretty wide-reaching bleed option. Now as a greatspear, they decrease the hitbox size for its attacks for various attacks and that sucks. Because the range of this weapon is a really big power part of it and having that reduced does hurt. But the main aspect of the DPS potential of this weapon is the ash of war and the bleed potentially you have there. That was nerfed in 1.09 where they reduced the power of the White Mask and the Lord of Blood Talisman. Basically, you're getting a lot less AR than you used to when a bleed would trigger, so all bleed builds and builds that rely on triggering bleed often are weaker now. But it's still really good!
Blasphemous Blade is arguably the best Elden Ring 1.09 Remembrance weapon in the game. We don't need to talk about it too much. It's just overturned, it has a bit too much going for it and somehow it's received various buffs over patches and patches and it hasn't really changed this patch. As a great sword, it got an increased speed range and recovery time for various attacks. So just using this as a weapon as a physical attacking weapon, it's just better. It's crazy that this is still getting buff even by proxy of its weapon type.
Carian Regal Scepter is a boss weapon that you can use as a fighting weapon with its spinning ash of war. But this mainly comes down to the fact that it has s intelligence scaling and boosts your moon sorcery damage which is very nice. It's a very relevant staff because it's basically the second-best boss weapon in Elden Ring patch 1.09 from our sorcery builds unless you're willing to go for the increased damage but make things cost more FPU. If not, this is pretty much the best pick. So obviously it's S tier because sorcery builds love this thing.
Maliketh's Black Blade is still an S tier at this point there haven't been really any major changes to colossal swords this patch. They did increase the attribute scaling of the colossal sword weapon type in the notes. Other than that, it's a Destined Death supplier, so 60 seconds now of 10% health reduction and a burst of damage and damage over time when you use it. It's also got hyper armor and the ash of war has a triple attack part of it where you spin it around. Then slam, then blow up which is fantastic in PvP. They also walk back the nerve to crouch poke which is feeling nice and good and usable these days. It's a very cool, very unique weapon and pairs incredibly well with the dagger to double up on your Destin Death application and mix up your attack speed.
