      Funniest thing is running out of fp mid-attack and *****slapping whatever enemy you're fighting to establish dominance

        was hoping the weapon art named "flame skewer" would actually skewer/grab attack enemies, would be pretty annoying in pvp though considering we already have golden crux from the greatsword of damnation as a grab

        • Anonymous

          Just as giants hunt it has the same problem that you can easily get knocked out of it by bosses.
          Maybe im just spoiled from using Lions Claw for so long though.

          • Fancy-looking blend between Giant Hunt and Flaming Strike. Both the animation AND the short buff duration will benefit from weapons such as Milady or Rellana's Twin Blades -- the fast light-greatswords with their equally graceful animations -- giving a bit of heft to the initial lunge, while its inherent double-hits, combos, and fast attack spam can avail of the buff while it lasts -- but for anything else, I'd stick to Flaming Strike.

              I think this is supposed to be an emulation of Messmer’s grab attack: stabbing (or impaling) upwards, followed by a scattering of flame. Makes sense too that we get it from Queelign, Messmer's number 1 fanboy

                I'm very fond of this on Milady's rapid attack sleekness. Gets better use of the buff window and it's easy enough to reapply.

                  After a lot of use in PvP, I think this is really only good on Greatswords and similar heavy weapons. Halberds and below just don't cut the hyper armor requirement, as it's so easy to get hit out of it. It's also a bit expensive FP wise, 26 in total is steep for what you get. While the buff is nice, 15 seconds isn't enough value. If this came down to 18 FP and 30 second buff I think it'd be a lot more usable on lighter weapons because even if you miss you get a good weapon buff out of it.

                    Adds a flat 95 fire damage but only lasts ~15 seconds for some reason. Compared to Flame Spear which lasts for 40 seconds and gives the same buff.

                      Tested: You have to defeat him twice

                      Location 1: Small Private Altar grace, go up the stairs, to the right into finger trees, stick right and you will be invaded

                      Location 2: Church of the Crusade

                        For those who didn't get it after killing him, pretty sure you have to kill him two times, at Belurat Tower Settlement and Church of Crusade

                          i have it on a Queelign's Flame art greatsword. buffed with winged serpent helm and shard of alexander, (plus FGMS, golden vow, etc etc) it does quite a bit of damage. trivialised the shadow sunflower guy

                          • This comes with a hefty fire buff buuuuuut, compared to Giant Hunt this does not have the humanoid pop up that Giant Hunt has.

                            So it doesn’t replace Giant Hunt as the perfect invasion cheese.

                              Has potential in PvP with similar functionality to Flaming Strike, but not so reviled. Not as easy to use but still good.
