Nemesis Claws is a powerful weapon in the game, particularly suited for the Dancer class. It scales with agility and immobilization, making it a devastating choice. With these claws, you can quickly fill your opponent’s immobilization meter during combat and use the weapon’s counterattack ability to redirect enemy attacks back at them.

This weapon’s synergy with agility allows you to evade attacks and launch counterattacks, accumulating magic as the battle progresses. The combination of agility and immobilization makes it a potent choice. Finding these claws will be essential to harness their power.

The Charleville 1789 Shield Musket is a versatile rifle ideal for long-range combat and particularly effective for alchemy-focused builds. It deals frost damage and can freeze enemies upon landing multiple successive shots. This immobilizes foes, making them vulnerable to your powerful attacks.

However, enemies with frost resistance won’t be frozen, so be mindful of your opponents. Additionally, using this weapon consumes alchemical capsules. It scales with alchemy, making it an excellent choice for alchemist builds.

The Fire Chain is one of the game’s best weapons, dealing fire damage over a wide area and inflicting the Burn status on enemies when landing successive attacks. It scales with Power, Agility, and Alchemy, making it versatile for various builds. The weapon’s special attack, Invocation of Fire, ignites the chain, causing additional devastation and applying a damage-over-time effect to enemies. It excels in multiple aspects, making it a top choice for experienced players.

The Falchion and Sabre are excellent dual weapons that can potentially be among the best in the game. They deal incredible damage in rapid strikes, making them ideal for high damage output without sacrificing agility. These weapons scale with agility, making them a great choice for a Dancer Build.

They also have supplementary abilities like Dash and Sprint Attack, which synergize well with rapid attacks and have good Power and agility scaling. The special attack, Blade Tornado, is their most powerful feature, unleashing a devastating spinning attack once charged, though it requires finding a safe spot to charge up..

The Romas Partisan is a powerful weapon that excels in wide-ranging combos, making it an ideal choice for a Soldier build. It scales significantly with Power, allowing you to deal massive damage. Its unique ability, “Invocation of Lightning,” adds lightning damage to the weapon for forty seconds, dealing area-of-effect damage to nearby enemies.

Each hit’s damage depends on the opponent’s Fulmination gauge, and if you can fill an opponent’s gauge completely, they’ll take additional damage from subsequent strikes. This weapon is a formidable choice for dealing damage in a Soldier build.

The “Wheel of Vengeance” in Steelrising is a heavy but potent weapon, particularly suited for taking on formidable foes:

  • Despite its weight, it offers substantial rewards for those who can manage it.
  • With an incredibly high impact stat of 600, it has the potential to one-shot enemies, especially in Power builds.
  • What sets it apart is the counterattack ability, where striking the ground with your shield generates powerful shockwaves, dealing significant damage to foes in front of you.
  • This slam can penetrate enemy defenses, causing severe damage and pushing them backward.
  • It also inflicts flame damage, making it effective against frost-based opponents.
  • The “Wheel of Vengeance” is a formidable choice for those seeking immense power in their battles.

The Hephaestus Batons are a substantial piece of arsenal that allows the alchemy class to showcase their potential in a fight. These batons scale with alchemy, enabling them to keep growing more robust and dependable. They are some of the most reliable weapons in the game that you will use, so make sure you look for them.

Furthermore, the baton’s ultimate attack allows them to fire off flame attacks. These flame attacks deal massive damage and will enable you to turn the fight in your favor. You can even fire off flame projectiles at enemies from a distance, providing you with more freedom when looking for a way to attack.

Moving on in our Steelrising Weapons article, we have the Discus Chain. Discus Chain is another powerful weapon in the game that can be a considerable addition to your arsenal. The weapon allows you to fire off ranged attacks and is a good weapon for an engineering build.

An exceptionally swift spinning strike will help you take out swarms of enemies that have enveloped you. It also has a good Impact statistic and rewards the players for having high Power and Agility stats. The weapon’s effectiveness is directly proportional to these stats, which makes it really good in a power build.

Frosted Fans

Frosted fans bring you the style and damage you need to assert dominance. These fans are mighty in an alchemy build and shine with the frost element. Even though they are compatible with all three elements, frost brings out the best in them.

Moreover, their ultimate attack enables them to restrict the opponent’s movement by freezing them. With their mobility locked, they become easy prey to your hard-hitting attacks. Additionally, because they’re frozen, it is almost impossible to miss your shots, adding more to this weapon’s impact.

The Volley Mallet is a powerful weapon with attached cannons, functioning like a shotgun for close-range devastation. It scales primarily with Power, making it versatile for various classes. Its ultimate attack, Volley of Gunfire, lets you deal immobilization damage from range, making it a strong choice.

The “Body of Work” is the starting weapon for the Bodyguard class in Steelrising. It may appear as a roller paint brush with three rollers, but it delivers massive damage, hitting with the force of a sledgehammer. However, it requires complete commitment to truly shine and is most satisfying when you build your entire character around it.

Despite its slow movement, the weapon boasts a powerful impact, capable of stunning or defeating even the toughest foes. Additionally, it grants the unique “Shield” ability, creating a protective shield around you to defend against incoming attacks.

Using the “Body of Work” is enjoyable and offers opportunities for creative plays. It scales with the Power stat, meaning that a higher power level results in more destructive force behind your attacks.

The Labrys and Francisca are dual-wield weapons in the game, reminiscent of the Falchion and Sabre, but they fall short in comparison:

  • While they allow for explosive battles, they lack unique and impactful abilities.
  • Even with maximum scalability, these weapons still feel lacking compared to others on the list.
  • The Falchion and Sabre outshine them in every aspect and offer more unique abilities.
  • It’s advisable to avoid using these weapons and consider better alternatives.
  • If you’re curious about their location and wish to try them, you can find more information below.

These are the Steelrising Best Weapons. Some of the weapons are already inherently strong, making them extremely powerful even in the hands of new players. On the other hand, some weapons require time and dedication to master and pay off massively in the form of damage and agility. Most weapons have the potential to become good in the hands of a skilled player so take this list with caution.

With that, we conclude our Steelrising Weapons guide. Let us know down below which weapon is your favorite!!
