Is there any explanations for why Moghwyn and Bloodfiends do exactly the same move to activate their powers?
Or is it just another Ctrl C and Ctrl V thing that From Software likes to do alot?

Does it get a higher blood loss at higher arcane than mohgs spear? Considering I wanna shield poke, it may be better if that's the case

People don't get that you're meant to powerstance it with Mohgwyn's sacred spear and use the L2 when the old nihil can't reach the target

Ash of War needs a major buff. Its a ****ing joke how trash it is when you have something like deathritual spear with much greater range,area & damage.

Bloodfiend's Sacred Spear will pull a lower AR than Mohg's Sacred Spear at 24/14/80 STR/DEX/ARC , but also does exclusively physical damage. This means it will be a little less affected by flat defense since it won't be splitting its damage between two defense stats.
This also means that it might do a lot more damage when landing counter hits since Pierce damage gets a counter bonus while Fire damage does not. Even so, I have no idea which one will do more damage overall or which one is better, but I think it is a lot closer than the AR itself would imply.
Not going to start looking at enemy Defense values since that would take forever, but if an enemy has 130 Defense across the broad then Mohg's spear will be losing 260 damage before Negation takes effect while Bloodfiend's Sacred Spear will only be losing 130. No idea how that holds up in practice.
I personally have just been powerstancing them. Bloodfiend's higher status build up and reliable damage makes it an excellent counterpart to the main hand benefits and weapon art of Mohg's. Unsurprisingly, they work excellent when used together.

The ash seems to do physical damage, and travels in a straight line from you to the target, kinda like Honed bolt (It gets caught on the environment like crazy)
Not sure if that helps anyone, but there you go

With 16 str 20 dex 80 arc, Bloodfiend's Sacred Spear+10 has 663 AR and 125 bleed build-up
With 16 str 20 dex 80 arc, Mohgwyn's Sacred Spear+10 has 732 AR and 92 bleed build-up
Make of that what you will
- Anonymous
At 16 str 80 arc, Bloodfiend's Sacred Spear+10 has 674 AR and 125 bleed build-up
At 16 str 80 arc, Mohgwyn's Sacred Spear+10 has 755 AR and 92 bleed build-up
Just get 80 arc and embrace your inner DS3 player. That is, reject L2 and R2, spam R1. AoW is kinda underwhelming and rather situational, bleed on R1s is about all BSS does better than MSS. I suppose it's also a bit lighter and requires 1 less level in strength to two-hand, so there's that. It also has only two prongs compared to three on MSS.
Tracking and range on the AoW seem somewhat inconsistent?Don't know what's up with them. I suppose you could use it for powerstance purposes or as an opener to try and get a bleed at the very beginning of the fight from range.

Basically Mohg's Great Spear favors Strength/Arc builds while this one favors Arc focused builds
Mogh's spear has better mixed scaling and innate fire damage while the Bloodfiend's is a better pure Arcane weapon. No idea which skill is better though.

I love it when people downvote comments without looking up the issue itself, as far as this dropping
Also, read the comments on the page as far as it goes. And just like your lives, downvoting means nothing.

"HEY THAT'S MY FORK!"
The little brother to everyone's favorite "You like blood rain?" Great Spear, this guy is interesting, its weapon art is effectively a ranged variant of Mohg's now focusing on a point and sending a decent sized blood cloud at the location to bleed the poor unsuspecting victim. Comparing this to Mohg's weapon art at first makes it feel like it a cheap copy (and honestly, it kinda is) but I still think this weapon deserves some love, to be able to bleed something without having to be standing near them and also have a fork to stab them? Sign me up coach I got sausages to get.
TLDR: Weird alternatice to Mohg's Spear, but not terrible
The casual rando rating: 6.5/10
Why would I use a 2-forked weapon when my Mohg spear is 3-forked?
- Anonymous
I think this should have been a weapon catalyst for incantations that also buffed bloodflame spells. Would have given it a very unique place in the game.
- Anonymous
At +10, 54 Strenght (two handed) and 50 Arcane, this has a total AR of 628, vs Mogh's 755. The AOW is ranged, but it won't apply a buff to like Mohg's does. It has slightly higher base bleed buildup, but even then it gets outclassed after Mogh's buff. I want to like this spear, but I'm not sure what advantages it offers over its older sibling :C

GUYS. THIS IS ANON BELOW . I AM SO STUPID. AND I WAS FARMING BLOODFIENDS AT AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT FORGE.
- Anonymous
I farmed the bloodfiends outside taylew's forge for ages and didnt get a single thing. I killed the incantation casting bloodfiend north of rauh base at the pond and got it as an immediate drop. Its either an extremely rare drop from taylew's forge or the wiki is wrong.
- Anonymous
This is actually good as a ranged weapon for clearing levels, love it
- Anonymous
But can you farm it from other Bloodfiends wielding one? There's one in Prospect Town, for example.

The skill doesn't seem to work on Bloodfiends. I went back to the bloodfiend basement in Rivermouth Cave to get some runes and it didn't do any damage to them, but Mohg's spear skill worked

This is a bugged weapon, you have to be online to get it to drop. Playing offline, it will not drop. Not sure why my comment was not approved. It is facts.

This weapon is bugged like the Black Knights Hammer. You must be playing online to a specific calibration in order for it to be a one time drop. It DOES NOT drop if you are playing offline.

Anyone get a 2nd drop? I had it drop on the first kill by Taylew's Ruined Forge and nothing afterwards. Discovery is at 243.

Finally a decent arcane bleed great spear to pair with Mogh's.

Can be applied with sleep grease and will scale with arcane, I think.

The aow is broken for me. It's only ticking 300-400dmg at +9. Reg attacks from the weapon are doing correct damage

For PS5 do the following:
- In the main menu go on Login
- Then it should update to "Calibrations Ver. 1.12.2" (also works without PS Plus)
- Now continue and go to the lake west of Teylew's Ruined Forge and kill the enemy holding the spear
After the above steps it dropped immediately for me.

This thing is a blue tooth mohg’s.
While Mohg’s does the blood aura around you, this does the blood aura farther away.

Fun fact, you can keep this weapon's infusion as standard while having decent arcane scaling. This means you can buff it with Bloodflame Blade and dealing massive bleed damage!
DOES drop in prospect town. But fork (the regular spear) is so much better and easier to drop. This thing is a great spear and therefore is better when two-handed (gets ha). On an arc build you are better off with Mohg's tho.

Not dropping on xbox ?

This is wrong go to the pound left of the grave not the cave there is one blood fiend in the pound that has the spear he drops it first time you kill him
- Anonymous
I'm playing on PS5, and this has NOT dropped for me no matter how many times I kill both the bloodfiend west of Taylew's Ruined Forge, and the one at Prospect Town. I honestly believe that its drop chance is bugged somehow, and it wouldn't actually be the first time a "guaranteed" weapon drop hasn't dropped for me, since I didn't get the Black Steel Greathammer from the black knight at the Church of Consolation either.

I was very excited for this thing after hearing that it's the new Mohg's, but it's unfortunately much worse. Unlike Mohg's you can use the AoW at range which is nice, but the damage absolutely pales in comparison.
I tested on the omens below the ashen capital and all 3 inputs of Mohg's Spear AoW will end up killing the omen. Using 3 casts of this thing's AoW does less than half health to the omen.
The only improvement is the range, but the damage is SO much lower that it's not enough for this to be stand alongside Mohg's, let alone replace it

FYI this thing's ash differs from Bloodboon Ritual in that it is localized around the thing you're targeting instead of just a huge aoe. Not sure how it compares to post nerf Mohgwyn's, but I wasn't too impressed using it on the Albinauric farm. Its true value is just the good bleed and physical AR, so use it with a shield or dual Great Spear with Mohgwyn's.
- Anonymous
This thing's ash should have been a spell or an ash that could be put on any spear or great-spear. As it is it's neat, but not really worth it.

There's this and the fiends fork which are 2 different weapons in 2 different categories and it is indeed a guaranteed drop from the one wielding it slightly south west of taylews forge in the little lake pond area
I want to infuse this with bloodflame blade. This expansion added so many weapons with arcane scaling that can be buffed. Base game only had the two ripple weapons.

This is the answer. This specific one will drop it. No point farming it
The Bloodfiend west of Taylew's Ruined Forge, near a pond instantly dropped it for me.

Farmed roughly 80s in Prospect Town and no luck. Dropped at first time in the pond west of Taylew's Ruined Forge. However, no second one in following 10 tries. Maybe only one in one round.

Have I gotten a different version of this spear or something?
Mine is upgraded with Somber Stones to +10 only and is not infusable.

This is not true if you try to farm here you will waste hours of your time this item has a guranteed drop start at Ancient Ruins Base grace (west of shadow keep) and go north to the river and kill the blood fiend in the river and he drops

This stupid piece of **** weapon has almost no innate weapon poise lmao. All great spears typically get 59 points of poise for their 2H movesets (it's not always 59, some attacks increase and decrease this amount), but this spear is unique in that it only gets 15 points of poise for its 2H attacks (the same amount of innate poise normal spears get, but normal spears only get hyperarmour when using appropriate AoWs). It's almost like they programmed this to be a normal spear and then changed their minds later, but forgot to increase the hyper armour value you get for its attacks. So now it's a slow-ass weapon that doesn't have the hyper armour to back itself up.
