Caestus is a Fist in Elden Ring. The Caestus scales primarily with Strength and Dexterity and for melee characters looking for an extra bonus to damage protection, as Caestus's Endure ability reduces damage taken while in use.
A weapon built for striking with the fists, made of tough leather inlaid with iron rivets.
Fist weapons come in pairs, and two-handing this weapon will equip it to both hands.
