Nox Flowing Hammer | Elden Ring Wiki

i wish we could get the fist weapons that the monks that use this have, i'm not scared of this thing. but those fists are some nightmares to deal with.

Submit

I think this at least deserves to be buffable because it's kinda bland the way it currently is, feels more like an auxiliary weapon than a primary

Submit

If only the skill was chargeable. Only one swing is pathetic. I would've expected 2-3 when charged.

Submit

This looks like one of the silver sufferer’s balls.

Submit

If you want to farm rotten spear and catalyst this is a good weapon for it. Lure the crystalians and spam aow

Submit

drang hammer but with severe back pain

Submit

Power stance them to play the maracas

Submit

I would absolutely main this thing if I could use Grease on it, but for some reason I can't at all, which baffles me a bit.

Bloodhound fang - A Somber weapon with unique ash of war; Can be buffed.

Treespear - A Somber weapon with split elemental damage and a self buffing Ash of war; Can be buffed.

This and the Nox Flowing sword - The exact same concepts; Can't be buffed.

Submit

Could've been a Tonitrus of this game if buffable, shame really. Still fun to use and pretty powerful honestly.

Submit

The funny balls true combo

Submit

When I feed my flail viagra:

Submit

Go with the flow

Submit

shoulda been a flail tbh

Submit

Floppy hammer for more kinetic energy

Submit

It's a hammer, yet a whip... Hamwhip? Whipammer? Whihamper?... what do I call this thing???

Submit

Reminds me a bit of the Gargoyle tail from Dark Souls with the goofy, droopy design. Also, the fact that there is no flail with a similar weapon art is about as wank as this saggy bellend. Dammit Fromsoft.

Submit

Really should have been an Arcane weapon. The mask made from the exact same thing gives you +8 points.

Submit

Why is this not considered a flail?

Submit

I could have sworn this thing drops from the boss duo at Sellia...

Submit

Is that the nox flowing hammer or are you just happy to see me

Submit

to a new player, its half their health gone. to an experienced player, it's a free hit.

Submit

pick up the soap type beat

Submit

In a better world this would have been a non-bleed flail with maybe a special moveset.

Submit

It's a grower, now a shower.

Submit

don't walk off the edge like i did make sure to jump

Submit

I hope we get a flowing greathammer at some point

Submit

Honestly surprised this thing has such little Dex scaling. I always imagined that both of the Flowing weapons would be either quality or dex-based considering how fancy they are. Probably makes this one of the fanciest strength weapons because of that.

Submit

The weapon art on this thing is one of the best counters to the halberd’s running R1. Keep those pokers back nice and far.

Submit

Would be real cool if this powerstanced with the flowing sword... :(

Submit

You can get aim punched while using the weapon art of this thing, Elden Ring at its best

Submit

squidgy tonitrus

Submit

This hammer's skill completely destroys Crystilians.

Submit

I'm not sure if this is obvious or not, but the weapon art deals strike damage on impact as well, just like the normal attacks.

Submit

Good for Crystillians, especially when facing 2 or more at once.

Submit

This hammer is simultaneously the shortest and the longest

Submit

This thing is interesting to say the least. The ash is deceptively strong and has very long range for a melee skill. First part comes out quick and will bully anyone not in a large weapon attack animation into a flinch followed by the 2nd hit being almost garanteed. Very good again anything trying to create space from you to cast, heal, or run

Submit

good at punishing people who just spam running pokes with hts or halberds. with shard of alexander you'll basically always win the trade

Submit

So what's the trick to consistently hitting an intended target? The weapon art on the flowing sword travels in a sweeping, sideways arc that can't miss and can damage multiple targets. But when I try using the skill on this hammer it sort of comes down at an angle and it seems to require an enemy to stand still in a relatively small area to land the attack

Submit

trolling spear & halberd user with this since day one, so much fun.

Submit

Next build plan:
- Get two of these
- Become John Santos
- Play the maracas

Submit

nox flowing ugs when ?

Submit

True Chads go to Nokron with a Stonesword Key in their hand, stride past the Mimic Tear chest and only pick up the Nox Flowing Hammer.

Submit

the nightmare of parry-spammers, enough said.

Submit

I'm using this as an offhand option for my Roar build. If you hit with the first part of Flowing Form you're very likely (unless they have ungodly poise) to hit with the second on players. However if you whiff, Flowing Form has a VERY long recovery time, nearly two seconds of you just standing there as the weapon reverts to it's original shape. You will be punished if you miss.

In PvE the extra range can be handy to sneak some extra hits in when you otherwise wouldn't be able to. Just mind the recovery time.

A handy tool for any melee build that would otherwise lack any range.

Submit

I've been using this weapon in PvP and PvE a lot recently, and I can with confidence say it's amazing.

The reach is a bit garbage (it's the shortest of any hammer) but that is more than made up for by its weapon art, Flowing Form. Flowing Form hits for well over 1000 damage with Shard of Alexander and no other buffs, has really good range and a really quick recovery. The weapon art has two successive hits -- the first is a big horizontal AoE sweep, the second is a vertical slam. The first hit seems to deal high poise damage to players, making it very hard to tank through it. I don't know how much exactly, but some guy clad in the full Tree Sentinel Set (which yields 60 poise) flinched from the first hit. The second hit will outright pancake the victim like the Zweihänder in DS1 did, which is just hilarious. The second hit appears to be guaranteed if the player is not able to poise through the first one.

Submit

Slightly annoys me that the version we have is slightly bent, while the one the Monks use is straight.

Submit

Am i the only one who never noticed this for several runs? I always take every character to Nokron for the mimic tear and Ghostflame torch then clear the sacred grounds for the sake of it since i love testing my current build on the Silver Tears at the bottom. Yet i didnt notice this item or the path to it Until like my 8th character.

Submit

Best weapon art stick in the game.

Submit

Just want to clear up a typo, this weapon CANNOT be enchanted with magic like Bloodflame Blade, (element) Armament, or items like Fire Grease

Submit

Did anyone else think it was a flail?

Submit

The AoW was perfect for farming Banished Knights. Specially for the dual GS one.

Submit

My build leaves me a combined 100 points between strength and dexterity. 641 AR at 90 strength/10 dexterity (upgraded to +10, one-handed), 648 at 80/20, 636 at 70/30, 623 at 60/40 and obviously dropping off even more the more you favour dexterity over strength from there on. Unsurprisingly, a weapon that gets B scaling with strength and D scaling with dexterity benefits the most from pumping strength to the softcap and then putting the remaining points into dexterity.

Submit

nothing so readily embodies the injustice in how wack the weapon design for the players is in this game as not being able to do the big DUNK the nox monks can do to you. actual travesty.

Submit

Me: "Woohoo! I can recreate the Drang Hammers, but better!"
From: *One per playthrough*

Submit

Ah yes, the heavy whip.

Submit

Would be cool if two-handing it split it into the shields the monks use.

Submit

Weapon art makes this hammer actually competetive in pvp

Submit

My beloved Beast Cutter.

Submit

I love hitting Rivers of Blood users mid weapon-art with this hammer's weapon art and seeing them understand that they can't just press a single button to win.

Submit

BALLSACK GANG

Submit

This is a really cool hammer. I wish I had an IRL version of it with the Stretchy Liquid Metal and what not. Oh well... Maybe one day some genius will come along and make one.

Submit

At the bottom of the page says “can be enchanted with magic or boosted with consumables.” It cannot

Submit

It says B in strength scaling but only has a C at lvl 1

Submit

This weapon is good purely for the fact that you get to smack most enemies' faces into the dirt and laugh about it every time.

Submit

the fact that this stun locks people so they get hit by the second move makes this actually really good lmfao

Submit

The scaling on this thing is broken. It beats any other hammer in terms of physical AR no matter the affinity or stat level. Which is weird, because you'd think quality Hammers would eventually outscale it as it's most stat efficient at 80str/20dex. If you're powerstancing hammers, I see no reason why you'd use any other hammer in your offhand. Maybe Stone club for the poise damage or spiked club for bleed, but you'd have to go pretty far into strength and dex to even come close.

Submit

decided to run some weird weapons today in pvp and found out this actually slaps

Submit

The Nox Monks can turn this into dual small spiked shields but we can't :(

Submit

This weapon seems inspired from the Mace weapon in the movie 'Baahubali'.

Submit

Looks similar to a Chinese mace known as a chui, overall cool weapon. Does anyone know if this weapon can be buffed with incantations or sorceries?

Submit

Anyone know if it's buffable?

Submit

surprised this wasnt in the flail category, it really should have been. BUT this isnt Dark Souls. i miss the unique movesets
for boss weapons so it didnt just feel like the same weapon as the other, but with a gimmick.

Submit

This is the sleeper weapon of the game.
At + 10 and 55 STR/ 20 DEX gives me 651 AR, two-handed of course.
Weapon art destroys Rivers of Blood as well.

Submit

It takes *Somber* smithing stones to upgrade.
Not normal stones as erroneously stated.

Submit

Looks like a bent drang hammer

Submit

Amazing weapon. Is great agains flying enemies.

Submit

Flowing Form (AoW)'s damage is moderately low considering the FP cost; it will do around 1,000 damage per 16 FP, which is somewhat expensive for such output.
However, its stagger power and reach is immense. The first hit will stagger, and the second hit downs tough customers such as Banished Knights.
The best part of Flowing Form, is that it can attack enemies through walls without the weapon recoiling, even if the user is within touching distance to the wall.

As such, the weapon works best when there's a wall in the combat scene. You can kill ambushes, harass enemies from safety, and use guard-counter to remove any survivors.

Submit

I dont know how they got the Nox flowing sword weapon art so wrong but got this one so right.

Submit

This is your Rivers of Blood counter right here. With the weapon art it catches them off guard.

Submit

648 AR on a 66 STR 2handing build

Submit

This does take somber smithing stones. Also one of the few "unique" weapons that works with a pure strength build.

Submit

Ah yes the quicksilver mace

Submit

okay so the slam of the weapon art will pancake people if they get hit without blocking. And you can free aim the slam down. It also seems like hitting the swing guarantees the slam to hit on players.

That being said it can be rolled through but due to the range you can use it to counter weapon arts that have a bit of a longer duration, such as waterfowl dance from Hand of Malenia, or corpsepiler from Rivers of Blood.

The damage of the weapon however isn't particularly high, but it can definitely work well in PvP.

Submit

Okay from what I tested the weapon art has extremely little windup and can be used smoothly from basically any attack. It does have a bit of a recovery afterwards, but it isn't long by any stretch.

Submit

Wow. This thing is actually nuts in pvp. the weapon art is surprisingly long with good poise damage, and the second hit pancakes enemies on the floor. As such, if the first hit connects, assuming the opponent doesn't just poise through it, you are guaranteed the second hit. Not to mention the weird way it moves always catches people off guard, can easily rival a whip in terms of length it extends.

Floppy Hammer for more kinetic energy.

Submit

The weapon art emits a very icky sound..feels disgusting every time i swing it

Submit

Can you get the fist weapon version of this that the Nox enemies use?

Submit

can't be enchanted with incantation buffs unfortunately

Submit

This weapon just remind my childhood

Submit

Great PVP weapon imo. Ash art always catches people off guard.

Submit

Not my main weapon by any means (dex build) but the few times an enemy glitches into the wall, this hammer saved the run. No matter the build, keep a weapon that can strike through walls!

Submit

I believe this weapon is currently broken, upgrading does not change the damage at all

Submit

Nothin disrespects your enemies more than slapping them with a stretchy sperm. It's special is surprisingly good tbh.

Submit

It uses somber smithing stones for upgrades.

Submit

Just a heads up that these are actually upgraded with Somber Smithing Stones.
Great weapon tho! Great damage & scaling, and the skill is really good against human enemies (even bosses)

Submit

You can find this by going into the side area which has the stonesword key room, then hopping out the window to the right.
