Elden Ring: All Straight & Thrusting Swords Checklist

All Straight & Thrusting Swords Checklist Overview

The checklist is located below this introductory text.

This checklist contains every Straight Sword, Thrusting Sword, and Heavy Thrusting Sword in Elden Ring, including Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. There are 37 total weapons across these three weapon classes.

These weapon types offer a balanced mix of speed, reach, and versatility, making them suitable for almost every build. If you're looking for heavier weapons such as Greatswords or Colossal Swords, those are covered in the All Greatswords & Colossal Swords checklist.

How to Get All Straight & Thrusting Swords

Straight and Thrusting Swords are found throughout the Lands Between and the Realm of Shadow. They can be purchased from merchants, looted from treasure chests, earned from NPC questlines or dropped by enemies. Several unique weapons are exclusive rewards from optional bosses or late-game quests.

While the majority of these weapons are obtainable during a normal playthrough, some require specific quest outcomes or progression through optional areas. This checklist helps ensure none are overlooked.

About Straight & Thrusting Swords

Straight Swords are one of the most versatile weapon classes in Elden Ring, combining reliable damage, fast attacks, and flexible movesets.

Thrusting Swords and Heavy Thrusting Swords trade wider swings for long-reaching thrust attacks, making them especially effective in one-on-one combat and while attacking behind a shield. They support a wide variety of Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence, Faith, and Arcane builds depending on the weapon.
