The Damage stat dictates how much damage the weapon does. The Damage stats for a weapon are W / X / Y / Z:

• W is Physical Damage
• X is Magical Damage
• Y is Fire Damage
• Z is Lightning Damage

Each weapon has one or more physical damage types:

• Normal
• Striking
• Slashing
• Thrusting

Certain enemies are weak or strong against different types of damage types.

The Stats Needed determines how high various Stats must be in order to wield the weapon effectively. The Requirement stats for a weapon are W / X / Y / Z:

• W is the Strength required
• X is the Dexterity required
• Y is the Intelligence required
• Z is the Faith required

Wielding a weapon without the required Strength and/or Dexterity will incur a penalty to the Physical damage of the weapon, while lower-than-required Magic and/or Faith will reduce the Magic damage of the weapon.

Also keep in mind that a character gains a 50% bonus to Strength by wielding a weapon with both hands, thus reducing the actual Strength required.
For example, a character with 18 Strength can wield a Large Club (Requires 26 Strength) properly if the weapon is held with both hands.
(18 x 1.5 = 27)

The Damage Reduction stat dictates the percentage of damage reduced while blocking. The Damage Reduction stats for a weapon are W / X / Y / Z:

• W is the Physical Damage Reduction
• X is the Magical Damage Reduction
• Y is the Fire Damage Reduction
• Z is the Lightning Damage Reduction
