Elden Ring Ash of War: Carian Sovereignty Notes & Tips
- Damage of Carian Sovereignty scales with wielder's Int score, weapon upgrade level, and infusion affinity (Magic granting the highest damage).
- Unlike other sword categories, infusing this AoW into Greatswords will provide increased poise during the skill animation.
- When fully charged, the skill will also send forth a ground shockwave that has 2 separate bursts in a straight line, each dealing ~40% initial cast damage. Same target cannot be hit both with the slam and the bursts however, unless the target possesses several separate hitboxes.
AnonymousPut this on a Magic affinty Miséricorde, equip Shard of Alexander + Godfrey Icon, do a back stab/guard break critical and then immediately start charging up Carian Sovereignty. Hit em with the full charged AOW and the follow up sweep. Gg

Can anyone confirm the poise greatsword buff is gone after the latest patch?

They seem to have changed this during the calibrations patch as I previously saw on release videos of the ash it was poising through most boss attacks and now it doesn't seem to do that any more. It does still have some hyperarmor from my testing however it will still get interrupted by most big boss hits and you will only likely poise through smaller light attacks from enemies in the world and initial combo swings from bosses (depending on the boss).
It was usable on the dancing lion and putrescent knight and worked quite well but virtually unusable against commander gaius and rellana as they just swing to fast and to often and you'll pretty much always get staggered out. If you play with spirit ashes you're chilling however since it can just grab the bosses attention and let you charge this for days.

Does it have to be a >Greatsword< (only that word) or does the bonus-poise work with Light/Curved Greatswords too?

It can be used on the great katana, pretty nice on it with cold

put this on any great sword(iron has the best stats) tune it to magic and have 51 poise and boom just casually doing 6k dmg poise breaking every boss in the game. that's without buffing myself with talismans, golden vow, flames grant me strength, and magic tear, cuz then it goes up to 12k.

Absolutely unusable on any DLC boss. The hyperarmor is nonexistent and you won't get even the lowest charged slash out if a gust of wind blows in your direction. Takes 2-3 business days to break the poise too.

Does the AoW also apply status? Like if I use a cold weapon would it apply frostbite, or would only the weapons hitbox count?

Make sure to put this on a greatsword. Was able to get the charged cast and follow up out successfully while 2 marionette soldiers were whaling on me. 51 poise and on a claymore.

It seems best to put this on a GS for the added hyper armor during charging animation? Which Greatsword is best for this?

What's this hyperarmour that's being mentioned? I'm getting poise broken pretty easily as with regular Grandeur...

I presume it deals most damage with Magic affinity. Does it scale with Int score and weapon upgrade level only, like the Grandeur?

This AoW is actually insane. You get tons of hyper armor throughout the whole animation and the two hits combined can stance break pretty much every enemy that doesn't get outright pancaked by the first hit. The damage on it is absurd too!
Really its only downside is the very high FP cost and the fact that I now have to mod the Carian Knight's Sword to have this AoW because it makes Carian Grandeur look wimpy by comparison.

The hell fromsoft thinking giving this 91 stance damage + hyper armor

It drops from a teardrop scarab inside a cave South west from Cathedral of Manus Metyr. The scarab is on the ceiling of the cave

Anyone know where to find this? Playing a mage and would love to try it out.

I'll make myself a coffee and go to work till this thing gets through its animation...

Playing this as a STR/INT character with high endurance. Once I manage to stance break the enemy with my Moonrithyll's Knight Sword I switch to my greatsword using this ash of war for pretty good damage

Hopefully i can use this to replace the Carian grandeur I'm currently using
For anyone struggling to find the cave..
To find this cave go to the Church District Highroad Site of Grace. Head directly *WEST* not southwest until you reach the cliffline and then continue south. The cave is embedded in the east cliff wall at the end of this path
