About this challenge

In the Lands Between, a dagger and a colossal sword do not just hit harder or softer — they rewrite your timing, your spacing, and the kind of pressure you put on a boss. Elden Ring sorts every armament into weapon classes with their own movesets, and Shadow of the Erdtree added eight more families, from backhand blades to perfume bottles.

Here you guess the secret class with clues for category, base game versus the expansion, size tier, damage profile, grip style, whether standard weapons take Ashes of War, and how many weapons fill that class. Start with the loud splits — ranged versus melee, base versus SotE — then squeeze with size and weapon count.
