Elden Ring is, in many ways, the culmination and amalgamation of all previous FromSoftware RPGs. Among the concepts and components that have been brought back are the Posture system, which was inspired by Sekiro, and the Stonesword Key, which is practically a Pharrous Lockstone from Dark Souls 2.
 
Elden Ring, on the other hand, is heavily influenced by Dark Souls 2. By equipping two weapons of the same type, players can use Power Stancing to unlock a unique moveset. Power Stancing is a tried-and-true method of increasing damage while expending a lot of stamina in Elden Ring. It works in the same way as Dark Souls 2, but it's been tweaked to match Elden Ring's unique battle system.

What is Power Stancing, and how does it work?

Power Stancing is a feature that adds a new moveset for each weapon type that focuses on dual-wielding. Dark Souls 3 contained dual-wielded weapons, however they could only be equipped as a single item. Players can use any two weapons of the same kind in each hand using Power Stancing, allowing for a broad choice of dual-wielding builds.
 
A One-Handed Sword, for example, can only be Power Stanced with another One-Handed Sword, while an Axe can only be Power Stanced with another Axe. Another thing to keep in mind is that hitting while Power Stanced consumes a lot of energy, especially Heavy Attacks, so spec heavily in Endurance to increase both your Equip Load (enabling you to equip two weapons) and overall stamina.
 

In Elden Ring, how can you increase the power of your stance weapons?

In Elden Ring, all players need are two weapons of the same class that are both armed with Power Stance. Merchants offer a variety of basic weapons in the Lands Between. Of course, real-world weapons work just as well, but it's a nice way to match a secondary weapon to your primary weapon.

Once they're both armed, there's nothing else you need to do. By pressing the right shoulder and trigger (or R1 and R2), players may launch Light and Heavy assaults, while pressing the left shoulder and trigger (or L1 and L2) allows them to defend themselves, albeit not as well as with a shield.
