Acid Spraymist | Elden Ring Wiki

comment footnotes: Mork calling Fromsoft, come in Fromsoft....acid mist should have a duration of 17 weeks, deal 99% damage reduction across the board to all foes and render the player invincible...nanu nanu

I would like it if durability was a thing in ER. Breaking someone's weapon in PvP and forcing them into backup can be incredibly helpful. Since that isn't really possible I think a higher damage reduction for the weapon they had equipped would be good too.

"Coats enemy armaments in acid, making them deal additional acid damage. Because f you, that's why."

Submit

This has always been useless, except in DS2 where durability was irritating.

Submit

Should be 15% all dmg reduced, and 10% defense decrease. Its rare materials and hard to land, warrants something that good. You can use incants and consumables for around 20-30% and even 60% defense boost, so its not unbalanced in comparison at all

Submit

Petition to change it so that it lowers all damage by 30% for 120 seconds. It’d be easy lore wise, just say that it damages armor and magic/incantation catalysts too. Why so busted you ask? Because I think it’s power should match how ridiculously limited and hard these are to make.

Submit

should last like, 5 minutes or something. its so worthless and so hard to craft.

Submit

13 FP for 15% phys absorption for 60 seconds. Can use it on major bosses that deal mostly phys, not good for general play.

Submit

At least make it lower ALL damage an enemy does, not just physical. Ffs.

Submit

This honestly feels like an item from an early beta build of the game that they left in by accident.

Submit

this should just straight up negate any damage buffs an enemy or player has, they would instantly become meta based on how many builds are based around buff stacking

Submit

Craftable Acid surge but Bad

Submit

This should've just been a spell, like it was in prior games... Given how little it does.

Submit

The best buff they could give this thing is if it actually broke equipment.

Submit

So... in short, useless.
Not spending (4) Formic Rock for a one-off mist that does negligible debuffs

Submit

But does it stack with Greyoll's roar?

Submit

This would probably be pretty good if it didn't do a lousy 15% for the slow cast time and demand 4 non-respawning items per single bottle.

Submit

the formic rock not resetting after resting at a grace checkpoint makes this one of those things that are likely kept back "just in case it comes in handy later" for use against a strong enemy or boss and never gets used at all, like the majority of the potions I'd squirrelled away for later in skyrim.

Submit

“Damaging armaments and lowering attack power” are referring to the same thing. It doesn’t actually “damage armaments” directly, just reduces the damage they inflict. What it should say is, “lowering attack power of armaments wielded by foes”.

Submit

You also failed to realize that it blocks the person's armaments for 60 seconds

Reduces Physical damage dealt by 15%

Submit

This page is devoid of useful information... How much does it reduce enemy damage? How does it damage armaments? Does it affect you as well in any way?

Submit

I like the part where we learned what it does

Submit

Oh, look. Another consumable made irrelevant by requiring rare ingredients. Such a shame. These could have been really handy.

Submit

There is an alternative reality where Durability still exists and they brought back the scraping spear.

"damaging armaments" I'm kinda glad I'm not managing durability this time.

Submit

When Patches uses this against you in Murkwater Cave I think it also hinders your rolling. Maybe it could do so to players as well? Even still, it's very hard to keep up steady use of this because of the ridiculous amount of Formic Rock needed for one vial as well as the rarity of the rocks as drops.

Submit

I can say if you have trouble with Malenia's busted move where she slashes all across the room this bad boy helps you survive.

Submit

Put the bubble and acid one on your hotbar,(dont use them) and then summon your mimic and they will use the items for free -> profit

Submit

If only durability was still in, this would completely wreck Katana users.

In testing against the 3 nobles just south of Liurnia Highway South, I can confirm that this only blocks physical damage. Saw a 15% reduction in the sword wielding noble's backhand swing, no reduction in the sorcerer's pebble, and a lower than 15% reduction on the torch wielding noble's swing. Wasn't able to test if it drops the damage on the physical component of certain spells, but I'd assume that'd be the case. So...pretty situational, honestly. That 15% would be kinda hard to notice, but it could come in handy vs a boss in co-op since it procs immediately and it doesn't draw aggro, letting you get it in before pulling. It lasts 1 minute, which is decent.

The main question is whether it's worth the opportunity cost of using vials for this purpose as opposed to something else, especially cause Formic Rock doesn't respawn and only drops rarely from giant ants, and you need FOUR of it for each vial. 15% seems like a small enough amount to where the benefit effectively disappears in the boss room since people tend to use HP flasks less efficiently, for obvious reasons. But there's always a chance that 15% means the difference between barely surviving a hit, and death. That said, unless you dupe the insane amount of rocks this burns through for the meager benefit it gives, you're probably better off farming for Arteria Leaf and just using Uplifting Aromatics defensively instead, since it has more tactical usages and also provides a damage boost, while being very easy to land on allies.

It seems to provide the same atk debuff as Greyoll's Roar, obviously without the def debuff. It lasts about a minute and stacks with Greyoll's. However, the exact value of the debuff seems to hit diminishing returns with your armor and other atk debuffs. The difference in damage taken bottomed out to around 8% for me, and stacked with Greyoll's to 15%, not even wearing full armor. While naked, it reduced damage by about 20%. However, I don't have enough to test against more enemies, more testing would be appreciated.

Submit

seem like these perfume things are still pretty obscure and not many people have tried them out
makes me want to cosplay as a perfumer and try to do a consumable heavy playthrough, shame about the low limit on the bottles

Submit

This is what Patches does right??

Submit

works on those danged iron virgins. i hate those things, so making them hurt less is nice

Submit

"Damaging armaments"... curious. I thought durability was not a mechanic in this game?
