These weapons are still B grade, despite one of Elden Ring Runes them being improved - these are the wing scythe and the holy Scythe, both for strong early to mid game and you can get both very early in your playthrough. The wing Scythe has some impressive movement on the Ash of War and if it lands it'll even prevent enemies from healing for a period which is very nice in PvP. However, it was only the Halo Scythe that saw any technical buff since last time, in this patch the weapon's Ash of War has made it, so the weapon deals damage as well as the holy attack itself. So using it in melee range will actually result in a double hit a physical and holy making the damage even better. With that in mind we actually think the Halo Scythe should be the higher rated between the two of them but we still hold them at a B grade.

Vyke's War Spear was completely untouched by various balance changes. Since the original frenzy update, it's a solid spear with a great moveset with frenzy tied to its base damage. It's one of the best if not the best frenzy-based weapons. If you have an enemy that's vulnerable to frenzy, then of course it's going to be great. The problem is that some foes are immune to it in fact most bosses, so that's obviously a major issue, though still solid with like that fire aspect and the physical damage and the moveset being strong. By no means is it a bad weapon when frenzy isn't working but it's just so much better when it is such as in PvP where it works so well, so we still hold the weapon in B grade.

Staff of the Avatar has been buffed. It's a high AR Faith weapon with a colossal moveset which yet colossal moveset was improved this patch as well with better Poise that leads to better staggers against even bigger foes, so it's solid. It's just a bit dull, the Colossal moveset just as lacking in variety, it's all like the same kind of slam attack at different paces. In this patch, it was improved slightly to have better attack power in PVE and also has faster recovery, it's high AR and effective as a faith strength weapon, so we put it at the end of buy Elden Ring Runes B grade.
