Godfrey Icon | Elden Ring Wiki

Shame this doesn’t work with Axe of Godfrey

Submit

Definitely does NOT affect Crystal Barrage, I tested it, no damage gain at all. So this page is (once again) dead wrong on having that spell on the list.

Submit

The fact this doesn't effect a single fire damage weapon/ash of war is annoying. Making a pyro build and being unable to pair it with a chargeable fire damage melee weapon feels bad.

Submit

Affects Rock Blaster too.

Submit

Rock Blaster works with this too, tested it myself. In fact, every single tick seems to proc it.

Submit

If you're using this with the Carian Grandeur AoW be aware that it only affects the damage on the 3rd level of a charged attack and not the 2nd.

Submit

With only one talisman slot left, I think this is better than Graven Mass/ Fock's Canvas? Most of the best spells seem to be charge-able, and the damage boost also works for any melee charge skills you have, unlike the 8%'ers. Though for pure swift pebble spam, obviously it'd have no purpose.

Submit

does this not boost ancient dragon lightning strike? Or just not listed?

Submit

Should work with troll's roar cause it takes a long time charging

Submit

works with frenzied bolt also

Submit

ordovis sword spin go brrr even against elden beast who has an insane holy resistance you can decimate its health with this and shard of alexander

Submit

Doesn't work with beastial incantations? No ancient lightning strike either? Why? WHY I SAY!?

Submit

Assuming you have the stats to make it hurt in the first place, this with 'shard of Alexander' and 'lightning scorpion charm' will show mental damage from 'ancient lightning spear' on a +10 bolt of gransax. Even more with 'prosthesis-wearer heirloom' but I prefer 'dragoncrest greatshield' if I have a scorpion charm equipped.

Submit

"Thy strength befits the crown" - drops quality weapon -
Ash of war is a roar, yet doesn't benefit from roar medallion
Ash of was is a charged skill, yet doesn't benefit from the Godfrey icon (even though it depicts the weapon's user)
Seriously I absolutely love this weapon in PvE but in every single patch I just open the notes wishing I'd see its name in the "buffed" section. Such a fun weapon, but the damage stacking potential is so limited for it it literally gets outdamaged by every mundane garbage in PvP.

Submit

Why does the character who doesn't use charged spells or weapon arts depicted in the talisman that boosts charged spells and weapon arts

Submit

Thorn sorceries need to be on this list. imo

Submit

Can confirm it works with Great Oracular Bubble. Tested at Gatefront, NG+7. Deals 1445 to the guard near the map with icon on, 1255 with icon off.

Submit

does this affect the projectile/heavy attack on the frozen needle?

Submit

What about zamor ice storm?

Submit

Despite seeming like it shouldn't, Charge Forth does actually work with this talisman - but only the final hit of the charge is boosted. It's about a 9% total boost in damage if you're hitting with all the small hits leading up to it; probably not worth the slot unless you're also using charged spells.

Submit

Who the **** is Godefroy?

Submit

does not work with charge forth wiki wrong

Submit

it dosnt really work on a whole lot of things kind of lame if you ask me. youd think that it would work on more ashes of war and incantations. the funny thing i noticed is they give so much more spells equipment and stuff to sorcery then incantations its like they dont like faith users all that much and same with arcane youd think they would actually have some occult spells it kind of sucks tbh.

Submit

Its dissapointing it does not work with godfreys axe. Could have at least made it somewhat preferable :/

Submit

Should be noted that shield crash works with this as well

Submit

They literally made the icon in the shape of "Suffering from Success"

Submit

everything is wrong with this talisman. 30% is good if you using it right, but you can never guess what is right. why the hell they named it after godfrey anyway? dude never cast a single spell in his life and prolly missed half a brain too but unga bunga builds dont get to use his talisman. f***.

Submit

Does this work on Roiling magma?

Submit

Doesn't work on "Ancient Dragons' Lightning Strike", did a quick test on the first soldier you meet after the Prayer Room grace point with 60 faith and using the gravel stone seal, both with and without Godfrey's Icon did 1594 damages

Submit

G O D E F R O Y

Submit

What a disappointing item..., wanted a godslayer build with the peeler but tornado is NOT buffed by this, despite obv being a charged skill. Led me to do some research...

This item doesn't work with 5 of the 12 chargeable skills, which is kind of an insane ratio, and this non-compatibility isn't explained anywhere in game. Does not work with Prelate's Charge, Black Flame Tornado, Sea of Magma, Thunderform Cloud or Shield Crash (according to wiki, havent tested all of these). Hugely disappointing, not sure I agree with this method of balancing - how is the player supposed to know this??

Submit

Let's be real the reason for this talisman is just to justify Godefroy's existence as filler in a weak attempt to make players think there's some hidden depth.

Submit

bless ye Godfrey!!! We will honor ye with' an icon of ya glory! Filled with the power of mostly magic things ye have no god damned idea how to use. because ye were too busy smashing rodents with a rock

Submit

Why in the world does this not work with shield charge lol.

Submit

poop

Submit

Why does Godefroy hold Godfrey's Icon? was that his dad? did the first elden lord lose his talisman?

Submit

"Yo how many cheeseburgers do you want?"
Godfrey:

Submit

Anybody test if this works on godfrey's axe charged special R2s after you buff it with the weapon art?

Submit

alternative to shard of alexander. alexander quest is cursed. cant complete it in 3 playthoughs. he's stuck after fighting radan.

Submit

Works well with Shard Spiral. Sit by large bosses, charge spell, repeat.

Submit

Y'all know you can equip it and try it out see the damage and compare it to without it instead of asking over and over right?

Submit

Anyone know if it works with "bear witnessor grafted dragon?

Submit

Anyone else having problems with this on Ancient Dragon Lightning Spear and Strike? Just noticed zero difference on casting damages for both while this is equipped while doing the fully charged aattacks. Still works on other charged incantations too.

Submit

Why is he throwing gangsigns

Submit

I thought this would work on most dragon communion incantations, since they say "charging extends duration". I expected the extended part to be a bit stronger. Oh well. Not good for my Dragon man. Into the bin for now

Submit

Works on blackflame tornado

Submit

does this work for ghizas wheel?

Submit

Does this work on Takers flame? I couldn't see on list just wanted to double check...

Submit

I love this purely for the purpose of having a summon take the bosses agro and getting behind the boss and hitting them for 20k a pop with Ancient Dragon's Lightning Strike. It one shots some of the weaker boss enemies in the game. I 4 shot Placidusax with it lol.

Submit

Part of the “let me just permanently affix this to my person…

I’m going to perms-use this carian filligree and Alexander shard.

Submit

Does it not buff Great Glintstone Shard?

Submit

> Enhances charged spells and skills.

does this affect "charged spells AND charged weapon arts", or "weapon arts AND charged spells" ?

Submit

I get a consistent exact 14.8% damage boost from this talisman 4169 without 4786 with every time casted more then 5 times each on the same target always a sneak attack and fully charged 1 shot kill and it's the same percentage from other skills aswell

Submit

Just tested, ZAMOR ICE STORM is affected by this talisman and damage boosted too.

Submit

An edit for the page. The boss you fight for this is Godefrey the Grafted.

Submit

So this doesn't affect Dragon King's Cragblade, even though you can charge up the Skill? Goddamn it all.

Submit

does this work for shield crash ash of war??

Submit

Do you have to actually charge the spell to gain the buff? For example I use Comet a lot but I don't charge it. I wouldn't get the buff then unless I charged it before each attack?

Submit

Item description summary:

I keep that MF thang on me

Submit

Works great with Comet, Ancient Death Rancor, and Stars of Ruin. Especially in PvP.

Submit

the incantation lightning spear seems to count as well

Submit

Does it work with Ice Lightning Sword? I’m not sure if that counts as a charge or an instant cast.

Submit

So...why doesn't this work on dragon incantations?

Submit

This + Carian Filigreed Crest + Bolt of Gransaxx = Throwing Nukes

Submit

this list is incredibly inconclusive and even contradicts other pages on this wiki...

Submit

it’s hilarious that the godfrey icon doesn’t work on godfrey’s axe lmao

Submit

is it just me or does it decrease Lion Greatbow Skill dmg.. consindering how many arrows hit, but i tested it a couple of times on the Troll before Godrick and without i seem to do about 2k and with the talisman around 1,7k

Submit

Can easily confirm that it DOES work with regular lightning spear.

Submit

It DOES affect Lightning Spear

Submit

Works with dragon breath spells that can be charged.

Submit

This works on dragon spells that can be charged too.

Submit

Do I have to fully charge my spell/skill for it to do the extra damage? or can I not charge it at all and get the 15% damage bonus?

Submit

This thing not working with socr spells tested!

Submit

Has anyone tested this with Prelate's Charge? Either for its opener and closer, or its intermediary ticks?

Submit

"Godefroy" Lol, people cant even copy the name of something that is already spelled for them.

Submit

Does this affect Black Flame Tornado's charge?

Submit

It does NOT affect Ancient Dragon's Lightning Strike

Submit

Also affects Oracle Bubbles and Great Oracular Bubble.

Submit

Tested with Darkmoon Greatsword. Damage increase only applies to a FULLY CHARGED blast. So with that particular weapon (just because it's my main) I go with Shard of Alexander, because it gives the buff no matter what. Both can apply lots of extra damage for fully charged blasts, but I didn't find myself using it much vs bosses, so I switched it out for Claw Talisman or Green Turtle (because I like to dual and jump). Anyway, just thought that would be good info for everybody.

Submit

No reason this shouldn't work with Lightning Spear. My paladin feels discriminated against.

Submit

Does this work with shriek of milos?

Submit

Does this affect shield crash?

Submit

Does this work with spinning wheel on Ghiza's wheel?

Submit

Black Flame Tornado is chargeable

Submit

I keep that mf thang on me

Submit

I think Nightmaidens mist too

Submit

Do you have to charge skill/spell all the way or can you just slightly charge it.

Submit

"When he vowed to become a lord, he took the Beast Regent Serosh upon on his back to suppress the ceaseless lust for battle that raged within."

This is such a cool piece of lore. Really sad its "hidden" like this, because it makes you understand the meaning of the cutscene for phase 2.

Submit

Does this work on both moon sorceries? (Ranni's Dark Moon + Rennala's)

Submit

Tested & confirmed both Black Flame Ritual and Death Lightning - this does boost their charged damage. Page updated to reflect this.

Submit

Lightning Spear incantation benefits from this as well

Submit

I have also added a list of spells that I have confirmed to be affected. As long as it can be charged it doesn't matter if it's enhanced potency or reach it is still affected.

Submit

Because there some confusion about what weapons and skills are affected, I tested all weapons that are chargeable and put them in a list.

Submit

How many times do we need to teach you this lesson old man

Submit

To everyone who is confused, the only spell and WA that this talisman enhances are those whose description specifically says, "CHARGING ENHANCES POTENCY". It must include potency for this talisman to work.

Submit

Does it increase all skills damage, or just skills you can charge

Submit

Does this affect River's of Blood? Tried on and of and the weapon skill doesn't seem to vary in damage.

Submit

Does this scale with bolt of gransax ash of war? I think it can be charged

Submit

it decrease damaga on charged flame sling oO

Submit

This talisman affect or improve the sword of night and flame skills?

Submit
