All of the classes are entirely viable for end-game content, but the Samurai is one of the best starter classes for a to pick in Elden Ring. This guide will go through a pair of great builds for the Samurai.

The Samurai has a higher focus on dexterity and ranged attacks than most other starting classes. Samurai is the best class for a typical ranged archetype. A two-handed Uchigatana can also hold its own for up-close combat and will be essential for a great Samurai build.

The Uchigatana is a starting weapon for the Samurai and can easily carry you far into late-game content with a proper build.

Since the Samurai begins with this weapon, you can find the second one in Limgrave. Head to theDeathtouched Catacombs in Stormhill. You will find a second Uchigatana; now, you are ready to take advantage of this build.

You will want a heavy focus on Dexterity and Vigor, with some points on Endurance and Strength to round out your stats for this build. Go for these stats to work best with this build.

This stat allocation will allow you to dual wield this powerful weapon and enable the use of the blood flame blade incantation. Follow our guide on acquiring this powerful spell here.
