Unlike Greatswords, Fists and Claws are far from the most popular weapon choices in Dark Souls 3, as they feel a bit underwhelming compared to their counterparts in Dark Souls 2 or Elden Ring. In Dark Souls 3, Fists and Claws have the shortest melee range of all weapons, even lagging behind most daggers while offering similar attack speed and damage. As a result, these weapon types lack any significant advantages, making them a niche choice for most players. Additionally, the selection is quite limited, with only three Fists and three Claws available in the game.
