You can get started with one of these three classes if you are new to Elden Ring. These classes don’t require much thought ahead of time. Your melee weapon will be your best friend as you hack, slash and attack your way to victory.
Aside from your starting equipment, you will also have either a shield or buckler which can protect you. Additionally, you will have high defensive and attack stats, making it easier for you to take damage and fight your enemies.

Dexterity, Dexterity, Dexterity
As a new Warrior, you should use weapons whose damage scales with your Dexterity. As mentioned, a magic sword fighter can be your future in waiting. Also, invest in an Intellect and Faith stat boost to match your starting Mind stat of 12.
Be all you can be – a smart and faithful bad-ass warrior
In order to take a few hits from enemies, you should invest in Vigor early on. As a new Warrior, your Vigor stat is quite low, so you should invest in Vigor until you are able to take a few hits.
Dexterity for your Horse Too
Take advantage of your new Warrior class and invest more in your dexterity. Also, as your horse’s Dexterity levels up, you will be able to use long swords and curved blades more effectively.
More Endurance if you can afford it
In case you have any extra Runes left, Endurance is a great stat to spend them on. Because they require several swings to be effective, straight swords and curved swords will drain your stamina bar very quickly.
If you like fast-n-Slash
In terms of weaponry, you are in luck if you prefer weapons that are fast-n-slash. In other games, warrior classes do not allow you to wield large weapons. If you wish to wield larger weapons, you should instead consider becoming a Hero, allowing you to use a variety of weapons.
