Also good for duel-rapiers, especially for fashion souls.Ĭaestus - An excellent offhand choice. Can 2-hand the weapon and deliver a nasty weapon art attack if your opponent opens up. You gain a parry and quick L1 poke attacks. L1 will use your regular R1 attack and L2 will execute a parry. These weapons gain the ability to parry in the offhand. Also has decent range and can help close the gap if you can manage to stun an opponent. You can use an offhand whip to deal damage when your opponent is baiting for a parry. Whips - Whips are a good offhand weapon because they can't be parried. Probably better in the Right hand unless you combine it with a Katana or Straight Sword. Great Scythe - Has a nice range and decently quick attack.

Spears - An offhand spear will have a nice long range poke for the L2 attack. (Side Note: This weapon is held differently in the offhand.) This is good to help build Bleed or Poison in tandem with you Right Hand Weapon. The following regular weapons have usefulness as an offhand weapon.īroadsword - This weapon, along with a lot of Straight Swords, have fast horizontal strikes with L2 in the offhand.ĭagger - You can deliver fast strikes with a dagger. Weapons in the offhand don't appear to have any damage reduction from what I've seen. When weapons in the offhand are 2-handed they have their regular 2-handed moveset. Holding the button you normally use to 2-hand the weapon in your Right hand (Y on Xbox, Triangle on Playstation) will instead 2-hand the weapon in your left hand. Normally in the offhand, a weapon will block with L1, and use the Basic Attack (R1 in the Right hand) with L2. These weapons don't gain any unique properties when used in the offhand. I went through my weapon collection to test weapons in the offhand. In Dark Souls 3 some weapons gain unique properties when in the left hand.
