Fists are a Weapon Category in Dark Souls and Dark Souls Remastered. Fists have the shortest range among the weapons in the game, forcing players into very close range melee combat. The weapons are extremely fast and consume little stamina, allowing for long combos that can break enemies' guard or deplete their stamina. This strategy is useful in PvE but not in PvP as other players will be able to parry the predictable fast repeating combo. These weapons can be wielded in the left hand or the right hand, each with different effects. Left-handing them grants the ability to parry whilst wielding fists in the right hand will replace the regular kick animation with knee strikes.

  • Pros: Very lightweight, deals fast rapid combo damage consuming little stamina, undeflectable damage can break poise. Useful in narrow spaces. Good scaling.
  • Cons: Very short range, low attack power and limited selection.
  • Recommendations: Have plenty of stamina and low equip load to improve your recovery. Good to couple with Gauntlets of Thorns to increase your damage output.

      What can I say to you? I remember how it felt to take that throne. All that it meant and all that it did not. A God of war. God of pain, of suffering, of destruction. The Norns said I chase redemption that I know I can never deserve. What does that make me? God of fools. A God of... Hope. "When all else is lost". You lost everything. And everyone. you became... There is no forgiving you. You chose... I chose. What now? Should I, the same man, should I sit? take? proclaim? lead? place myself in service? In service. Should I lose everything and everyone, there's to be enough left inside so that I do not become you? I do not know. But I have... hope. You are cruel and arrogant and selfish. But you are more than that. You have always been more than what others saw. You are more than that.
