Beginner's Best Weapon: Wheel Blade

The Wheel Blade is one of the best beginner choices thanks to its fast Normal Attacks and excellent reach. It can quickly lunge forward and reliably land the first two hits even from a distance. Its Deathblow also offers outstanding range and projectile speed, making it a versatile Weapon that performs well in almost any situation.
Tips for Choosing Weapons
Prioritize High Rarity Weapons

When choosing the best beginner weapons, remember that damage scales with a Weapon's Rarity. Sticking with Common Weapons for too long can make progression difficult. Regardless of weapon type, always aim to equip a Weapon with a Rarity equal to or one level higher than your Body level to stay effective.
Choose Weapons with Powerful Perks

When you acquire equipment of the same Rarity and type, the main factor in deciding which to keep is whether it has useful Perks. For Weapons, the recommended Perk is 'Normal Attack+', which increases Normal Attack Damage.
