Divine Bird Feathers is an Incantation in Elden Ring. It was added with the Shadow of the Erdtree DLCDivine Bird Feathers spell relases a flurry of feathers that inflict damage.

NOTE: Since Patch 1.14, the minumum delated between consecutive hits has been decreased and the range has been increased.

 

A technique of the divine bird warriors, the very first of all horned warriors, wielded as an incantation.

Spread the arms wide like wings to release a flurry of feathers. This incantation can be cast while in motion. Hold to continue releasing feathers.

The divine bird warriors, and indeed this technique, are said to bear resemblance to the golden Crucible.

      Uhhhh every says it drains mana. It doesn't drain any mana for me. Like, I get the first tick and then the second tick but that's it. No continuous ticks after. I play on older console and that's the only thing I can think of that causes it.

        The Divine Bird Warriors use a version of this in which they jump backwards while throwing a handful of these holy feathers that deals pretty good damage, and it works a bit like a shotgun with how the more feathers that land, the more damage it does.

        We could’ve gotten a ****ing holy feather shotgun but we got... whatever the hell this is supposed to be.

          They should’ve just made it a short barrage for a static fp cost. Charging could increase the damage and length of the barrage and you can still walk while doing so. They already did it with the crucible breath man why couldn’t this be the same?

            What an unfathomably, ridiculously, nonsensically, horrifically, devastatingly, disgustingly, and pathetically mid incantation.

              Even at 80/80 with a golden order seal this does very little damage, not to mention the very short range and high FP drain.

                I love using “bad” spells/items for unique builds and have been playing through with gravebird armor and crucible incants as a shaman. Truly gutted by how useless this spell is. If anyone has some utility, please post it!

                This is too slow as a finisher, mediocre range, and does 500 damage for a whole FP bar.

                  On PS4, this only charges FP for the initial cast, then lets me cast infinitely afterwards. I'm guessing this is a bug, not a feature?

                    We could have gotten sleep incantations, a bewitching incantation, black flame incantations… but no… we got this steaming pile of rotten GARBAGE. I cry whenever I see this incantation.

                      Idea for buff: make the feathers actual projectiles that stick to the target, like arrows. At the count of 50 proyectiles, they explode.

                        I'm getting a bug where it only ticks once, then stops costing FP. I was able to mow down the secluded cell part of stormveil easily, the spell then stopped requiring stamina. Is anyone else getting this bug?

                          Even after the buff, it's still a terrible spell. BUT it has one pretty good niche in pvp, it's great for finishing off low health players.

                            They buffed it but let me tell you: they never tried to use it; because no human beings could think this spell is ok.

                              If you lower your game FPs to 30 FPS you can cast this for no FP cost.
                              Before you downvote try it for yourself, I know it sounds silly but it's true.

                                This is actually just a gesture that takes fp, the "damage" you may occasionally see occur is purely cosmetic.

                                lol it's so bad

                                  To the comment mentioning how it only cost 3 fp and a litte stamina but didn't continue to tick down. They are right, I think the spell was just bugged. Still terrible damage wise, but I think the idea was to kinda poise break enemies with this spell instead of outright damage.

                                  I just confirmed this, just tested it. The damage is still terrible, but my fp bar ticked twice then stopped and I had a small slice from stamina. Took like 8 seconds to kill one of the ancestor guys in Liurnia by the erdtree avatar, but I could hold it down without it draining my fp bar.

                                    I don't know if they fixed this incantation, when i cast on enemies it only consumes 3 fp and a small chunk of stamina but it doesn't keep consuming anymore and continues to damage enemies

                                      they had the template with the glintstone barrage sorceries, hopefully gets a minor buff later on so it isn't so underwhelming

                                        IMO, I think this spell would’ve been cooler as maybe just an incant version of the scattershot AoW. The spell in concept isn’t bad either, but at the moment this thing is probably the worst spell in the entire game, even more so than watchful spirit or fires deadly sin.

                                          This got some buffs, but gently raising my hands and slapping them together should not take a full three seconds with radagon's icon equipped, once its going the spell is essentially a beltfed machinegun of nerf-darts that turn to flowers about thirty centimeters in front of my hands... but it is *very funny*.

                                          This spell is malformed as many so often are, but if it had about twice the range and the ability to swap targets it would be essentially fixed after the last lot of changes, helping to give incantation casters something equivalent to crystal torrent in terms of multi-projectile shooty spells

                                            This should have just need holy damage Bestial Sling. The Divine Bird Warriors even have an attack like that.

                                              "Release a flurry of feathers" I mean, the game didn't lie... It hits enemies with the same force as a bucket of feathers that you poured out in front of a box fan. Literally took multiple hits of this incantation to kill a deer

                                                    Just so perfectly, hilariously terrible in every way. It's almost beautiful how the stars aligned with this one. Absolutely shreds your FP bar in return for terrible range, no mobility, no poise, no damage, no stagger, isn't boosted with the corresponding seal, seems to be bugged in several ways. I guess if they increased the damage by like 300% it might be decent, but even then it would still suffer from the same FP-draining weakness that makes spells like Whirl/Surge Flame very questionable to use

                                                      They should troll us by buffing this spell next patch. But instead of making the range and damage better, make it cost no FP at all. (Spoilers: It will still be absolutely useless)

                                                        They didn't mention it in the notes, but they "fixed" it's stamina consumption. Which is to say it's nearly 0 now. It also uses so little fp that it's hard to make a dent in the bar with blue dew talisman equipped.

                                                        Damage is still kinda butts tho.

                                                            I really, really wish I weren't saying this (since the lore this incantation and its respective Divine Bird armor set has introduced is actually groundbreaking), but this is quite possibly the worst spell in the game. At 309 incantation scaling, it is only doing 120 damage (no sneak attack bonus) per tick to the sheep outside Church of Elleh. That is... really, really bad. And especially for 33 FP for the initial burst? It doesn't matter if you're firing 11 projectiles if the damage is that bad. Holy moly, this incantation is so bad. If somebody can find a way to make this spell worthwhile in any capacity at all, please tell the rest of the class. Hopefully there's something we're missing.

                                                                Seems to be bugged. After the initial hold down there is no more FP cost. Had Blue Dew Talisan and my FP was going up while holding this spell. Can hold it indefinitely.

                                                                  It's kind of shocking how bad some of the spells in this DLC are. I kind of figured people were just overstating their ineffectiveness, and that everyone was just dismissing things that weren't meta. But spells like this one are seriously irredeemably bad. They're not even good at taking out soldiers of Godrick in NG+ with 85 faith. It's not just ineffective; it practically doesn't even do any damage.

                                                                  • Not bugged regarding Scadutree fragments, it's trash in the base game too. With a Cerulean/Viridian Hidden Tear combo you can just barely take down one sleeping Albinauric. Incant scaling seems to be working as well. Just one of From's many small mysteries.

                                                                    Maybe it's for hunting scarabs?

                                                                    • Anonymous

                                                                      Congratulations, Watchful Spirit, you are no longer the worst spell.

I have to assume it's an oversight that it doesn't continuously drain FP after the initial cast and continuous cast cost, because you can essentially just hold down the button and walk around like a mobile machinegun turret infinitely spraying this.

                                                                        I'm not exactly specced for it, but I can see this being serious ragebait in invasions if you have high poise. Stacking any applicable amage buffs. Does it deal Holy damage or physical?

                                                                        Just stacking poise and damage and chipping people to death with an unending rain of feathers.

                                                                        I noticed a weird bug while playing around with it, locking onto an enemy seems to screw up the trajectory of the feathers after killing them unless you stop to recast, so better to use it unlocked.

                                                                        • Anonymous

Uses considerably less stamina and FP as well. Damage is still mediocre, range is poor, you're still super vulnerable while casting... But it doesn't empty your stamina and FP like before. Randomly uses less FP and uses even less when casting out of combat for... Reasons.

That sadly does not make it viable because the damage and stagger of it is very low. On 60 fps it drains roughly 100 fp per second

                                                                                      Is this supposed to drain ur FP and Stamina when you hold it down? I tried it out though it let me hold the spell out and use it for as long as i held down my cast button. I think it might be bugged cause you can use it infinitely (granted you got 3 FP to cast it initially)

                                                                                      I wouldn't know if this makes it any better though, but its funny to use

I was 350ish without the spira equipped and 390ish with the spira equipped.

                                                                                              Not that it matters, the damage and stagger is awful.

                                                                                              Truly the most useless spell of all time.

                                                                                                This belongs in the lowest levels of the Subterranean Shunning Grounds

Go North past the two gazebos and enter the area with scarlet rot. Take the elevator on the left wall. At the top will be a set of stairs (behind the stairs is another incantation). Go into the door to the left of the stair the spell will be in the middle of the water.
