Most people are dissatisfied with the lack of damage and hyper armor. I’m disappointed that you don’t fly into the air as high as the crucible knights do. Would have made up for its lack of poise if you could use the flight to dodge attacks.

I put this on a twin blade & used it against an invader. Hit them twice for a few hundred while flying past them, ate an impaling thrust to the back during my recovery. It has a long windup, no hyperarmor, you can easily be knocked out of the air in all parts of it. I struggle to understand what they were thinking when they balanced this. It's sad.

I'm guessing time/resource constraints were contributing factors why this is an AoW instead of an Incant like most were hoping it would be.
If it were an Incant it would require setting motion values and possibly even adding new animations/assets because they'd have to account for EVERY weapon type in the game, and that was probably a time allocation they couldn't afford given how huge the in scope the DLC already is.
So I guess they went with the half measure and gave people somewhat what they wanted by limiting it to an AoW with only swords and twin blades as the only factoring weapon types.

This looks DOPE as hell but as far as I can tell… its value basically ends there. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not terrible, it’s just not great. I saw a lot of people saying to put this on the Black Steel Twinblade and it makes sense because that weapon benefits greatly from a sacred infusion, buuuut, despite this AOW having a unique attack for twinblades, it’s really not that good…
This AOW is MUCH better on a spear or something of the sort, where all of your damage is focused into that one thrust, using it on a twinblade often causes you to just fly by an enemy and briefly nick them with the blade doing very very little damage, and even if you do land the majority of the move on a target, it’s still not justifiable damage for the long animation and poor recovery.
Basically, I don’t think this is very good, especially on twinblades which is unfortunate due to the unique attack. Would love to make this work on my Black Steel Twinblade but I really don’t think it’s happening, now I gotta go find a fitting spear to put it on.

I'm in it for the drip, fun, and cool animation. Def one of my fav, I first infused it into my Black Steel Twinblade. The Holy damage is nice. There is a nice move set for this. First I parried the poor enemies, riposted them, then I fly to them as they helplessly got up trying to fight back. I am holier than thou.

Remember that trailer where we saw this being used on the Dueling Shield?
Well, you can't apply these to Thrusting Shields. Lmao. I wonder why they decided to remove that, but it's very disappointing.
This feels pretty good in PVP, the long range makes it good for catching casters. It's easy to dodge if you try to use it in close range combat though

I love this skill visually, but unless I'm missing something, this is basically just a flashier but slower version of Piercing Fang.
If you can avoid attacks with the initial flying into the air, I haven't found any consistent way to do it, and it doesn't seem to do noticeably more damage or poise damage.
I love it thematically, but functionally it's just a worse version of Piercing Fang, which is a damn shame, as it looks absolutely awesome.
Maybe there's a niche use in dodging stomp attacks or something?

Perfect for Chupperman's big return. Bring him back, Old Man.

I’m really disappointed that you can’t put these on perfume bottles. I wanted to make a fighter jet build.

What to say, other than, its pretty dogsh*t. Don't even bother with the Twinblade. You spin like a top all flashy, but the damage is just crap. Better to just use a non-twinblade like weapon for that Crucible-Style Flight attack. But its just the Sword version, where they fly straight ahead, and they can't even hit multiple enemies. Not like Siluria or Ordovis' buddy, where they try slamming down into your location and make a nice "explosive" entrance.
Sorry, but what a waste. Needs a buff.

tried on twinblade. very pretty, however too many tracking issues against small hitbox and moving enemies, mostly not worth using just like blood dance

Should've been an incantation, seriously it being an Ash of War makes no sense and ruins the Crucible Knight cosplay by necessitating a weapon or shield which inevitably won't match the set.

At first I was like: why is this not an incantation?
The longer you look at it though the more you realize that is the most weapon tied aspect of the crucible and since it changes based on your weapon type it makes sense to have as an infusion, it also opens it up to builds that don't have sufficient faith, which is great!

Honestly pretty dumb it's an aow and not an incantation like the rest.

It says "colossal weapons excepted", does this strictly mean colossal weapons or also colossal swords? Asking since they're considered 2 different weapon classes

Hope there is a a non somber crucible weapon somewhere, I’ll make do but it’d really help the fashion.

Can confirm that the crucible knight set boosts this skill's damage. Was doing 1171 damage in full crucible set vs 1010 damage in different armor.

Wish this was an incantation to go with the rest of the spells & the armor buff. Can’t use it with weapons that have special abilities which is a shame but is still cool to have in the game.
does not count as a jump attack.
