Key

Damage:	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.
Critical:	The damage bonus for backstabs and ripostes
Durability:	The durability of the weapon. The effectiveness of the weapon will severely deteriorate when the durability falls below 30%.
Weight:	The weight of the weapon. Note that carrying over 50% of your Equip Burden will reduce the speed of your rolls, while going over 100% will reduce your regular speed to walking and attempts to roll or backstep will leave you momentarily stunned.
StatsNeeded:	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 your 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 Great Axe (Requires 26 Strength) properly if the weapon is held with both hands. (18 x 1.5 = 27)
StatBonuses:	The Stat Bonuses rating indicates the level of bonus damage you do with the weapon, based on the associated Stat. This rating can be S, A, B, C, D, or E (in order from most to least bonus for the associated skill).
FramptSouls:	This is the amount of souls you will receive if you feed the item to Kingseeker Frampt
