So, with that said, let’s go over each main weapon category and what are the best secondary weapons for them:
Greatsword – The Greatsword is a very versatile melee DPS weapon.
Pairs really well with sword and shield to allow you to switch to tanking or the Longbow or Crossbow for ranged DPS.
Staff – A magical weapon, primarily for ranged DPS.
Your best bet is probably to pair it with Wand and Tome, which will allow you to provide support.
Daggers – Nimble melee DPS weapon, focused on single targets.
Pair with a Greatsword to get AoE DPS options, or with a Longbow or Crossbow for ranged attacks.
Sword and Shield – The de-facto tanking weapon.
Pairs best with a Greatsword for extra damage options. Also with Wand and Tome to make you the best support unit possible!
Longbow – A ranged weapon focused on taking out enemies with strong singular shots.
Crossbow and Staff are best for staying as ranged DPS. Daggers are also good at allowing you to get into melee.
Crossbow – A very agile ranged weapon.
You can pair it with Longbow to get access to stronger but slower attacks, or Daggers to allow you to deal high DPS in melee range.
Wand and Tome – The only full support weapon in the game, it allows you to buff and heal.
Pairs best with Staff for ranged magical attacks, or with Sword and Shield to go all in into support by allowing you to tank.
So, there you have it, the best secondary weapons for every weapon category. Pick the ones that best fit your role and class, and take on the dangers that lurk in Solisium!
Venezuelan gamer cursed by being interested by most games, resulting in a ridiculous backlog he’ll never be able to conquer. Been gaming for over two decades now! Few things exemplify his wide variety in gaming tastes as the fact that he’s a big fan of both Souls games and the Atelier series at the same time. Also a big fan of Yakuza/Like a Dragon, Deadly Premonition, Zero Escape, and Dead Rising, among others. Considers Lost Judgment and Sekiro to both be masterpieces.
