Ash of War: Stamp (Sweep) | Elden Ring Wiki

its so mid but i cant stop using it

Submit

Upward cut has 600 poise MV and sweep has a total of 350. I love this aow so much but that's just ****ing unreasonable

Submit

I hope they combine the stamps again, this must be the least used ash of war in the game

Submit

In pvp with my Butcher knife 2 handed, you can start the ash of war, and if the try to panic roll that, you can follow up with an r1 to roll catch med rolls.

Submit

This ash of war doesn’t deal nearly enough damage. Both attacks almost never land, even while using dismounter. And the strong hit gets out damaged by a regular r2. The endurance granted still isn’t enough to eat something like storm caller, or spinning slash and its only real advantage is that no one uses it lol.

Submit

Fun fact: If you rotate your left stick clockwise during the sweep, sometimes your character will only spin once.
Useless info tho since you also lose about half of the dmg.

Submit

underrated, very fast and strong on colossal swords

Submit

You can cut the "stamp" short. You don't get the endure effect. But the damage comes out faster. In general this ash lets you mess with timing quite a bit and that makes it a cool choice for pvp.

Submit

can stagger crucibles

Submit

On a bleed infused ultra greatsword this is almost always a garunteed bleed proc

Submit

One thing worth knowing about the Stamp ashes is that damage reduction doesn't kick in instantly. If you do the follow up immediately after the stomp input, you don't get any reduction at all.

Submit

This is basically Slave Knight Gael's Blade of Peril Spinning Slash Light Attack. Unfortunately, it's not as strong.

Submit

it gud now trust me

Submit

that damage lmao. Regular r1 do more dmg,wtf is this ash of war

Submit

best counter to jump attacks if used on collosals. against any weapon class it's pretty much a won trade that you can guarantee will land after your opponent uses a jump. dogshit in pve though unless you use it on groups.

Submit

great for pvp ledge shenanigans, other than that, idk

Submit

This Ash only has one single justifiable use: put it on a colossal Greatsword and infuse it w/ Bleed. Enemy health bars will melt before your eyes.

Submit

why can't I put this on halberds

:(((

Submit

Bro pls update damage ob this thing, it barely huts higher then normal light attack WITH alex shard. Whyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Submit

I want to like it but it gets hard countered by r1 spam when it should be a hard counter to r1 spam.

Submit

Weapon art so bad my opponent feels bad for me when I land 300 damage with final sweep. I can feel them losing any fear of this weapon art after that.

Submit

best part about it is that it triggers millicents prosthetic and swaddling cloth in 1 weapon art

Submit

Put this on the colossal Greatsword DS3 style and it is surprisingly good. Was skeptical since it did not do well on other weapons I tried it with but since the GS has good reach and AR it ends up giving it a great1-2 combo finisher after your 3 R1’s. Also great for proccing the wingsword insignias and swaddling cloth talisman

Submit

Think there's any reason why From decided to up and make this the most dogshit weapon skill in the entire game?

Submit

For PvE purposes it can work well. You hit several targets and knock them away with the heavy attack. The knocked back target is just in range for a Charged stab by the Claymore.

Submit

The poor recovery time really kills it, the damage isn't even that good.

Submit

Should have been a stance ash of war coupled with upward cut. Idk why even make them separate.

Submit

damage leaves much to be desired, other than that its cool

Submit

Why is this so bad? Tried it on Stone Club and the initial sweep only hits 10% of the time even point blank...

Submit

Give the first spin some poise damage for heaven sake, loosing trades despite somehow landing this.

Submit

Too Weak to win trades and too slow to counter. Looks cool AF tho.

Submit

Sadly this thing is terrible. You can get knocked out of the animation, low damage and no mobility. Use lions claw

Submit

The first spin does no poise damage and takes a lot of skill to land but the opponent just rolls away mid-way of the full AOW.

Submit

One of the few skills which takes skill to use but you do not get rewarded for it.

Submit

Poise only last for the blocking part, the actual weapon art spin will let you be staggered by anything.

Submit

Start up frames for poise is terrible in real fight

Submit

Fix this skill Fromsoft, 50% of the time the poise grant at the beginning does not even active in a real fight when you need it the most despite having FP.

Submit

"initiates a blocking stance that absorbs one hit" yeah right, it barely does that. I still get hit 90% of the time for full hurt. The boost to defence is like 2 milli seconds.

Submit

Kind of bugged skill, sometimes the poise boost effect does not activate (kinda like having no FP) even though we have FP.

Submit

Since its two hits its good for procing status like frost. But the first part of the spin has low poise break, people, roll out before main hit connects.

Submit

Horrible damage. Why?

Submit

Since the buff, it comes out insanely fast. Great in PvP to tank and punish high-committal options. High stamina cost and low damage holds it back quite a bit, though. Still a great mixup

Submit

After the Stamp, Sweep comes out faster than Upward Cut, so maybe more useful in invasion scenarios against careless and overly-aggressive invaders. Sweep also hits twice, and you can let the initial swing hit in front of you first then quickly change direction for the second hit.

Submit

idk why the stamps are seperate ashes. should've been merged together to act kinda like square off

Submit

Nothing more satisfying than blasting a bloodthirsty gank with this.

Submit

If it doesn't stagger like upward can it at least get a tiny bit more range and DMG. That's all it needs to be the more AOE version of upward and comparable in usefulness.. still works well just not as well

Submit

Not as good as uppercut but highly slept on non the less

Submit

I think Stamp had to be a single AOW. Simply made it towards you could follow up with R1 (Sweep) and R2 (Upward Cut) just like Wild strike or Spinning Strikes.

Submit

The cathedral knight greatsword was one of my favorite weapons in DS3 and the weapon art played a big role in why I loved it so much, so to see it get completely gutted of any utility and have it outclassed by pretty much every other AoW in this game hurts my heart

Submit

Unfortunately trash in this game. Put this on my Omen Cleaver and the damage is even worse than two R1's. Stamp Upward Cut blows it out of the water in terms of utility. Damn shame

Submit

Why is no one mentioning that Stamp (Sweep) hits twice in a row every time you use it? Does no one realize what that means for weapons that build up any passive status condition? Even rotten greataxe, with a mediocre 65 build up rate, can inflict rot in mere seconds with successive uses

Submit

They should've buffed this to go more forward so it can maybe hit something.

Submit

Worst Ash of War, right next to Endure.

Submit

why does this skill do less damage than an R1

Submit

Really should’ve been combined with the other stamp skill like how DS3 was. L2 to activate the skill, R1 for the sweep and R2 for the vertical slash.

Submit

A skill I love in DS3 but is kind of meh in ER as of patch 1.04. First hit doesn't seem to have as forgiving of a hitbox compared to DS3. Second hit no longer offers knock down on humanoid enemies. Stomp reduces damage taken, lowers player's hitbox and raises poise which is awesome but there is no option for an R1 swing. The player has to commit to the followup special to get any gain out of it.

With Greatsword +21, there is a 200+ damage difference between upward cut and sweep. There's also a chance sweep's first hit misses and the player loses out on 400+ damage. Why not give sweep it's knockdown on second hit and give both stomps a follow up R1? Resetting multiple human-sized enemy positions I thought was great in DS3 even if it didn't hit as hard as upward cut.

Submit

Everybody's bashing on this, but I'm getting some amazing results with this on a Zwei

Submit

whats the longest weapon to use this weapon art?

Submit

I like Stomp in DS3, and Stamp/Upward is good, so I rolled a new character and gave this a shot on my greataxe and was hugely disappointed. The attack is fairly fast, sure, but it does less than an R1. I thought I must have been doing something wrong, maybe it hit twice and I was missing a hit, but no. It's just bad. Terrible damage, doesn't seem especially good at breaking poise, lackluster reach. I wonder if the damage is bugged, because it is honestly an embarrassment to every other weapon skill in the game

Submit

Basic attacks from rats knock you out of it HAHA. I like the set up for a sweeping heavy, i have hit several enemies including ones behind me at once but that recoil protection from the first hit is a sham.

Submit

Really wish they buffed this. I won't be greedy and ask for a dmg buff, maybe a range buff or quicker startup.

Submit

An attack so cool they gave it to the final dlc boss in DS3… Now… Look at how they massacred my boi..

Submit

It does absolutely no damage and the description on the French version is the same as the upward cut...
It's a shame because it was my favorite attack in ds3

Submit

Best used with CGS crouch attack.
CGS crouch attack and Sweep attacks will stagger Banished Knights and Haligtree Knights with every hit. When combined together, you can stunlock the Knights.
Blocked attacks will still stagger the blockers, potentially canceling their Guard Counter.

Other than that, it provides a slow weapon with a fast combo that scales well with weapon damage and reach.

Tested and proven in Commander Niall arena, Inner Wall, and Temple Altar.

Submit

Might be a contender for worst ash of war in the game.

Submit

This attack instantly activates the Godskin Swaddling Cloth for HP regen, as well as any other "successive attack" effects. Upward Cut also actives "successive" attack effects instantly but not the Godskin Cloth.

Submit

INSANE DOWNGRADE FROM UPWARD CUT! loses both in raw and poise damage to stamp upward cut. 527 damage upward cut, this only 323 counting both hits, UPWARD CUT DEALS 60% MORE DAMAGE. upward cut can stun a troll with 2 uses, this can't.

Submit

does this fit on greathammers and greataxes or just 1handed versions?

Submit

When I try to put it on the Greatsword (UGS) it takes the scaling from C->C while decreasing the damage lol, might change when i level up/level up the sword
