Boosts Frenzied Flame Inc.

Frenzied Flame Seal is a Sacred Seal in Elden Ring. The Frenzied Flame Seal scales primarily with Faith and is a good Weapon for Frenzied Flame incantations.

 

Formless sacred seal bestowed by the maiden of the Three Fingers.
Enhances incantations of the frenzied flame.

This seal is the mark of the Lord of Frenzied Flame. Scales incantations using strength, dexterity, intelligence, and faith all together.

Elden Ring Frenzied Flame Seal Notes & Tips

  • Weapon Skill: No Skill. This armament has no skill. If the armament in the other hand has a skill, that skill will be used instead.
  • This weapon cannot be upgraded with Ashes of War
  • Frenzied Flame Seal can be upgraded by using Somber Smithing Stones
  • Buffs Frenzied Flame Incantations by 20%. You can double this buff by equipping a second Frenzied Flame Seal in your other hand.
  • This is one of the few magic catalysts that scale with both Intelligence and Faith, making it useful for hybrid spellcaster builds.
  • Frenzied Flame Seal's Incant Scaling scales with Strength, a trait only shared by the Clawmark Seal. This Seal's incant Scaling also scales with Dexterity, a trait unique to this seal.
  • This Seal’s Incant Scaling Soft Caps for Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence and Faith are 15/30/45, with Faith providing more points in Incant Scaling than any of the other stats.
  • Causes Madness Buildup: madness status effect elden ring wiki guide 100px (55)
    • Only applies to physical attacks made with the seal, as non-Frenzied Flame incantations cast with this seal will not gain Madness buildup on impact.
    • The amount of Madness caused by Frenzied Flame Incantations is not affected by this seal.
  • Frenzied Flame Incantations include Frenzied Burst, Howl of Shabriri, The Flame of Frenzy, and Unendurable Frenzy.
    • Inescapable Frenzy is not currently buffed by this seal due to the spell's unusual damage calculation. See its page for details.
  • Sell Value:  er runes 13 100
  • If you're trying to get this solely to use Flame Cleanse Me, Bestial Vitality, or whatever set buffs you're after for your build, try using the Golden Order Seal or the Erdtree Seal. Still weightless, and you can cast your buffs just fine, even without meeting the requirements.
  • Since the Frenzied Flame Seal has no Faith requirement, a pure Int build with less than 10 Faith can benefit from this seal by being able to use incantations with only Intelligence requirement, such as Law of Causality and Law of Regression.
  • NOTE: As of Patch 1.08 a bug that prevented the follow-up attack from occurring when the Black Sword Incantation was activated with a Sacred Seal in the left hand has been fixed.
  • NOTE: As of Patch 1.09, the scaling values of this weapon were changed. Please refer to the Upgrades Table of this weapon below.
  • Was known as the Spark of Frenzy in version 1.00.

      For a Frenzy incant build it's better to cast with Erdtree Seal with Faith at 80 and offhand Frenzy Flame Seal than to dual wield Frenzy Flame Seal up until pretty high stats/lvl (~175+ depending)

      Dual FFS starts to pull ahead at a hefty stat spread, around 30 STR/40 DEX/30 INT/45 FTH which soaks up a lot of stat points that could be going to VIG/MND/END. I built this to get max cast speed with Radigon Icon but cast speed is pretty minor (up to a few tenths of a second, maybe a small charge time reduction as well) and probably not worth burning a talisman slot for. And you can cast Golden Order incants (meh). But for lvl 200+ casting mostly Frenzy spells dual FFS is the way to go, hardly an optimal caster build but if you're doing frenzy at this level it's more about the style points!

        If you are casting Blood flame Blade with minimum stats (faith 12, arcane 10) I believe this seal is better then Dragon communion seal as it has higher 'faith' scaling.

        • Anonymous

          power stance two of these and shred invaders in stormveil, ritual sword talisman, fire scorp charm, godfrey icon, and ritual shield talisman. just stand behind your friends and they invader can't get to you in time.

            This should really scale with arcane for both lore reasons and because it would just make sense for frenzy build up (also it needs a buff)

            • Anonymous

              they really did this thing dirty. first, they changed its much cooler beta name "The Spark of Frenzy" to something that sounds generic. then with two softcapped stats, its incant scaling is around 250... the same amount in INT/FTH will put Golden Order Seal to over 300, and the same amount in just FTH will make Erdtree Seal or any other faith-only seal just absurd. With two FFS, 20 str, 45 dex, 50 fth, my frenzy spells are lucky to do 800 per cast. meanwhile pure FTH casters do more damage with sacred/flame art weapons, AND can just instant kill other players with double giants + Giantsflame Take Thee or double gravel + Death Lightning. I thought maybe this thing would be like Hollow infusion in DS3 and kinda technically be viable at lower levels, if you build around it, but really start to shine at super high levels, but nah. This thing never overtakes Golden Order. a shame.

                If you see peeps using this at low levels then you know they're almost certainly a cheating twink (I don't personally have an issue with non-cheating twinks), as there is no way to obtain this seal without getting Edgar's halberd that locks you out of low-level play. A friend could drop it for them, that's the only non-cheating way, and let's be real, that's not as likely. I will say though, if the twink also has frenzy eyes and burn marks, at least they actually played through the game after cheating. Beating Morgott and Mohg at a low level is still an accomplishment of sorts. It's just a really powerful seal for early game and you're not supposed to have it for multiplayer, so....

                  This seal is underrated pretty hard imo. I use it at +4 on a Level 60 Dex & Faith build and the damage it pulls on Madness Incantations is maddening. Frenzied Burst and Flame of Frenzy will pump out so much damage especially if you have 2 Frenzied Flame Seals. I like to use Howl of Shabriri and use the classic Cerulean Hidden Tear and Leaden Hardtear combo with Unendurable Frenzy to melt bosses. Every other seal at that level didn't come close to the damage this one put out. I find this Seal is far better in the first 1/3 of the game.

                      Insane how a seal made of blood is better at casting Frenzied Flame incantations than a seal made of that same flame

                      • Anonymous

                        I think that a seal designed around madness should probably increases how much madness build up you do (i want this to have arc scaling)

                        • Anonymous

                          The Incantation Scaling soft caps for Strength, Dexterity and Intelligence are 15/30/45 when casting with this Seal. If you are intending on actually using this Seal instead of the Erdtree Seal, get a 2nd one from NG+ or a friend to double stack it’s Frenzied Flame incantation buff. Use it with the Black Dumpling head gear and cast Howl of Shabriri until Madness procs on you.

                          Don’t forget to use the 2 talismans that increase incantation damage.

                            If you're using this for a frenzied flame build it is best to leave it in your offhand for the status buff, and use Erdtree Seal +10 for casting

                            • Anonymous

                              Faith build that casts fast. Sure it isn't the best in terms of damage but you can invest in 40 dex and still get some damage while casting real fast.

                              Plus a pure frenzy flame build is just about the maddest thing you can do in this game.

                              • Anonymous

                                Wish this also scaled with arcane because why not, but I can see why they didn't because I feel if this buffed frenzied spells by 20% and caused additional frenzy build up from the scaling it'd be a little strong.

                                  Dual wielding these makes frenzy spells overpowered. I got frenzied burst dealing 5000+ damage and charging unendurable frenzy dealing 10000+ before I get madness

                                    Having it scale with all 4 of the major damage stats is clever, lore wise.
                                    The Frenzied Flame wants all things once separated to be conjoined once again, and thus, casting through their power is indiscriminate. It regards all things as better as one, and so does their seal.
                                    Shame that when the inevitable dex/faith seal drops in the DLC, it's gonna be completely outclassed.

                                      For anyone getting this for completion purposes but still want a specific ending you can still get this just go do the scene with the three fingers after you have finished the game with the ending you want but before going into ng+, the game will let you.

                                        Best seal for dex users and low faith investment. I am using it on my malenia cosplay build and got the minimal 35 faith in order to use malenia's flower and some buffs as well. Then at 80 dex and 35 faith it does 239 scaling compared 207 from finger seal which I was using before.

                                          A complete Int/Faith fire caster would be a fun end-game build using Gelmir staff and Frenzy seal, and putting some points into Strength for any weapons since both catalysts scale with both all three stats.

                                          Great fashion possibilities and fun pure caster opportunities with a wide options for ash of war switch ups. Maybe Clayman's Spear with Black Flame Tornado, since it does Magic damage innately and Fire damage when infused?

                                            Got this within 15 minutes of playing on my very first playthrough, didn't need a walkthrough, really easy and super good! :D

                                              "Inescapable Frenzy is not currently buffed by this seal due to the spell's unusual damage calculation. See its page for details." This is incorrect. With a friend I just tested Inescapable Frenzy with a 117 Spellbuff Frenzyflame Seal and a 119 Spellbuff Clawmark seal. In fact, the damage boost is massive. With the Clawmark I got 370 damage, with the Frenzied Flame I got 510. That's roughly a 40% increase. Keep in mind that a good chunk is Madness trigger damage, so the actual boosted damage the spell itself is getting is probably even higher. Basically, the Frenzied Flame Seal seems to uniquely buff the Inescapable Frenzy spell significantly.

                                                Nice. Only dex seal, but if you dont want to get frenzy flame ending while still being able to use the best dex talisman(prosthesis) you cant get it.

                                                • If you have very low caster stats and very high Dexterity, this is the best seal you can use. I have 38 Strength and 55 Dexterity (on account of wanting maximum returns from my Bloodhound's Fang) and want to meet the minimum requirements of Bloodboon (14 Faith, 17 Arcane). With this seal I'm getting 201 Incant Scaling, which is much better than the other options available.

                                                  • Since Catch Flame only needs 8 Faith to cast and this seal doesn't have a Faith requirement, you can cast Catch Flame without needing to invest points into Faith for starting classes that have less than the 10 Faith needed to effectively use the Finger or Dragon Communion Seals, such as the Hero, Bandit, Warrior, Vagabond, and Samurai. This is incredibly niche, but technically a useful benefit for builds that have very limited stat points to reinvest, as this saves a maximum of 3 levels of otherwise required investment, 2 into Faith and 1 into Endurance to use the Seals that have weight.

                                                      Why does this say there is a passive 5 madness build up? I tried to cause that to happen with both Frenzyflame incants and non frenzy incants but nothing happened.

                                                          Pve wise, having 2 of these or having 1 of them as an off hand with a high faith seal is the way to go. A lot of damage stacking and flexibility is a must for PvE as a faith caster. But if you plan to pvp…
                                                          Definitely recommend to off hand this and use the dragon commission seal if you plan to do any kind of PvP. The arcane scaling in the dragon seal improves the chaos status effect noticeably good and it becomes great against other players (especially against high poise builds since most high poise armor lack focus resistance). While you may do less damage, procing madness easier is a must since it it gives you free dmg, stuns and applies pressure to your foe whenever you build up status. You even have access to most weapons with the use of occult infusion. (preferably with a weapon with built in bleed).

                                                              At low levels, using frenzy incants with this seal is so good. Of course, you're not supposed to have this seal (let alone two copies of it, hm...) at the start of the game, but after you beat morgott and mohg, the omen on NG+ at level 18, try powerstancing two +1 frenzy seals, Equip the two fingers heirloom, fire scorpion charm, godfrey icon, and flock's canvas talisman, drink the faith knot and flame-shrouding tears, cast howl of shabriri, and melt it all away in the yellow chaos flame. You've earned it!

                                                                Yeah no. Whoever pointed out that you’re better off using the dragon communion seal for frenzy incants didn’t do their homework. At Rl 50 with +4 seals the frenzy talisman still has about 10 more spell buff than the communion seal. Now, that’s not even counting the 20% extra damage you get for using frenzy incants. Plus, you get a whopping 40% extra damage by having two frenzy incants equipped. So if we’re talking about pure frenzy and damage, this seal beats dragon by about 300-500 damage at rl 50, which is huge!
                                                                I don’t know if you want to build up arcane to take advantage of potentially stun locking players into madness, but through a damage perspective the frenzy seal is working as intended .

                                                                Another cool fact is if you dual wield two frenzy flames, there’s a bug where pricing madness on an NPC tarnished instantly kills them as if you proc’d deathblight. No matter how much health they have. This makes the late game NPC invaders a breeze to fight.

                                                                • Anonymous

                                                                  stick in off hand when casting madness spells is the only use for it. hopefully it gets a buff later on

The motivation behind it is faster casting speed and the versatility with it, using offensive mid-ranged incants and your usual buffs, while also having a strong melee weapon (using Vyke's War Spear). Only thing is that I don't get how incant scaling with the stats really works.

                                                                      • Anonymous

Mechanically because it's lame/bad that the dragon communion seal is better at applying madness than the *madness seal*. Diegetically because the flame of frenzy draws its power from the despair of the inhabitants of the lands between, which is why I think the seal scales with every other stat equally, despair can rise up from anybody and the frenzied flame will accept any suitably powerful tarnished as its host. Faith in the frenzied flame increases the power of your frenzied flame incantations. So why does madness buildup scale with ARC? Why, Fromsoft... Why. You did frostbite correctly so why not madness?

                                                                        • Anonymous

                                                                              • Seems lile there went a lot of madness into the scaling balance... seriously... this thing is kinda trash. No reasonable build ever can invest enough points into 4 stats while still maintaining survivabillity in the pvp meta. Everyone is just better off with using one of the other seals. I know frenzied flame incantations are just meant to annoy and stun people in pvp, not to deal damage with their initial hit. But c'mon bruh.. give us some bang for our bucks.

                                                                                • At 99 all 4 stats it has 400 incant scaling that said does anyone know if this uses the full scaling instead of just faith scaling for weapon buffs and heals? That would make it better than dragon communion seal/Golden order seal (415-418 incant scaling at 99 Faith+Arcane/INT) at extreme levels and niche scenarios.

                                                                                  It is pretty much useless otherwise. Off hand it for mech build I guess.

                                                                                  • Anonymous

Lore-wise: it can only be obtained after coming into direct contact with the emissary of an outer god, which basically turns you into the Lord of Chaos. So why in the name of all that's unholy is this seal so mediocre outside of very specific builds (Dex mains with some Str and enough Fth to meet the incantation requirements)?

I thought it wouldn't so I didn't waste a somber dragon stone on it. But the wiki NG+ checklist says the mark of frenzied flame will be removed from your character but doesn't mention this seal in either of the lists of what you keep and what you lose.
                                                                                        On one hand it is a story item linked to one of the endings on the other it's something a lot of players will have used runes and somber stones to upgrade it which will be a waste of a limited resource if somber dragon stones are used get +10.

I'm not casting anything that deals damage (like flame, cleanse me, or grant me strenght). I just like how it looks like you have a tinsy-tiny flame of frenzy in your hand.

This makes it great for builds that stop at 12 faith for Bestial Vitality and Flame Cleanse Me, both of which are fantastic utility spells that don't have any scaling component anyway. Honestly just about any build that doesn't focus on incants should consider this.

Also, Flame of Frenzy and Frenzied Burst, which get an extra 20% buff with this seal, are very solid in PvE, particularly when charged, even if they're probably better known for irritating madness mayhem in PvP. It can be shocking how much damage a charged Flame of Frenzy can do (and I'm talking late game against strong enemies) in addition to frequently staggering for even more damage with a riposte or charged attack opening.

Any more Faith, and other seals are more practical; any more or less Dex, and the Incant Scaling suffers.

                                                                                                                                I'm only counting zero weight seals btw.

                                                                                                                                  Getting this thing took 1.5 weight off my build which is a huge deal for fast rolling. I think I went from 155~ spell buff to 195~. On top of it all it upgrades with somber stones instead of smithing which makes life a lot easier.

                                                                                                                                  If you're running a build like mine this thing is an outrageous character buff.

Like, super high STR and DEX but only 15 FTH so you can cast flame grant me strength, or some other low-investment incantations

                                                                                                                                        • Anonymous

I didn't have a lot of Larval Tears, and only being level 50, I wasn't able to test with a high investment into any stats. My tests weren't precise, just repeccing and seeing how equipping different stat-increasing armor and talismans affected incant scaling. ~~Also since my seal was upgraded to +3, these results are only useful for a general comparison of the scaling between stats. A fully upgraded or unupgraded seal might have different relative scaling.~~

                                                                                                                                          Strength/Dexterity/Intelligence under 15 had negligible scaling, increasing incant scaling by around .25 per stat point
                                                                                                                                          Strength/Dexterity/Intelligence 15-30 increased incant scaling about 1 per stat point
                                                                                                                                          Strength/Dexterity/Intelligence 30-40 increased incant scaling about .4 per stat point (didn't record most of my testing before running out of Larval Tears, might be inaccurate)
                                                                                                                                          Strength/Dexterity/Intelligence 40+ didn't test

                                                                                                                                          Faith under 16 unable to test
                                                                                                                                          Faith 16-30 increased the incant scaling by about 2 per stat point
                                                                                                                                          Faith 30-45 increased incant scaling by about .8 per stat point
                                                                                                                                          Faith 45+ increased incant scaling about .4 per stat point

                                                                                                                                          So there seems to be a 'reverse softcap' for stats below 15, but I couldn't test faith in that range because I started as a Prophet with 16 faith. The best scaling for any individual stat was between 15 and 30 before hitting a softcap, with another softcap at 45 for faith. I would assume there's also a softcap for strength, dexterity, and intelligence at 45 but I wasn't being efficient with my testing early on and ran low on Larval Tears. What I found interesting was that the scaling for faith after 30 was just a little bit worse than the scaling for the other stats between 15 and 30. So prioritize 30 faith first, then go for 30/30/30/30, then 30/30/30/45, then it doesn't matter based on my testing unless there are other softcaps I was unable to reach. The exception to this is if str/dex/int is lower than 11. In that case increasing faith to 45 returns more for the investment rather than trying to overcome the 'reverse softcap' on those stats. But again, my testing was far from thorough and might be inaccurate outside of the exact situation I was in.

                                                                                                                                          TL;DR if using the Frenzied Flame Seal (based on limited testing): Ignore dump stats under 11 > Get faith to 30 > 30/30/30/30 (except dump stats) > 30/30/30/45 (except dump stats) > 30/30/30/45

                                                                                                                                            • This really should have way higher scaling when you have 99 in all 4 stats but somehow is considerably worse than dragon communion with 99 on 2 stats. Sad times for PvE players.

                                                                                                                                              • Anonymous

I talked to her under Lyndell, and she would just say the same thing over and over to touch her. I went into the empty fingers room and got summoned as a Hunter, then tried to blast her with the jar cannon from the room since you can attack in there, went back to her and got seal as if I were frenzied like before. I don't know what could have triggered it, maybe just entering the room again and back works, but again, I'm not frenzied anymore.

                                                                                                                                                • Anonymous

                                                                                                                                                  Alternatively, if you want a seal that is weightless and has low/no stat requirements this is an option, though it is a very niche need to have

                                                                                                                                                    • Anonymous

Frenzied burst damage is (frenzy seal+9) 475 and (golden order+8) 485 uncharged, non surprised attack against the stationary gargoyles in deeproot depths (which have no wiki mention???). I should have checked scaling/damage with my faith build equivalent first!

                                                                                                                                                      Makes me wonder why this even gets all those low to mid grade scaling. Flexibility? But then i just found it falls flat in hybrid. No one will have 70-99 in all the scaling stats after reading below lol. I wanna know if lvl 130 hybrid or lvl 130 faith based is better (keeping all other attributes the same)

                                                                                                                                                        • Probably best sacred seal, not only buffs frenzied flame incantations that are meta on PvP but it's also good on PvE (I recommend Dragon incantations for PvE tho). Versatile as your can use all type of spells while having a scaling not too far from other sacred seals like the golden order seal.

Like seriously tf

In older titles upgrading something that had a specific type of damage boost applied innately on it would increase that damage boost with each respective level. Does anybody know if upgrading this increase the amount it boosts frenzied flame spells by?

                                                                                                                                                              • Anonymous

Sorcery has great bow to snipe targets from a far while no incantations can match that distance except burst. As long as you can lock on to them, you hit them. If you can eyeball it, you can hit a non locked on target by a little more. So if you want to pull one mob in the distance and not get the ones before them, this is huge to avoid getting 5+ mobs all at once.
