Flame spit go brr

Does blood flame work with oil pots?

Submit

Oil up lil tarnished

Submit

How long does the oil last on an enemy? Forever until next hit?

Submit

Don't use these! I threw one and instantly the area I was in got attacked by a ton of weird guys using jar cannon type weapons in green armour, everything got razed.
Might be a glitch or something

Submit

does anyone know if theres a cookbook that has this in there and if there is WHERE

Submit

Does anyone know if this applies before or after resistance? Like the Fire Giant has 50% fire resist, so would this knock it down to 0 for the next hit, or just boost the post-resistance damage by 50%?

Submit

Fun fact, despite dealing fire damage perfumer bolts won’t use up the oil’s bonus damage after one hit like intended. Enabling your crossbow to deal 50% extra damage for 30 seconds if using performer bolts.

Submit

Really really weird that it isn't mentioned here or on the enemy's page, but if you hit any of the invisible Black Knight Assassins with one of these it renders them visible regardless of whether or not you have the sentry torch out. Just felt that's pertinent to the article.

Submit

I'd crafted this and got invaded

Submit

I crafted this and instantly has been invaded

Submit

Add a little bit of olive oil

Submit

From what I can tell the 'oil' effect sticks around for 30 seconds.

Submit

This with Giantsflame Take Thee make an nice damage.

Submit

If only I had a Fire Stake Driver

Submit

Bro some dude in arena wanted to test the damage difference and it was a 12 damage difference :( on a golems halberd with fire grease.

Submit

If you or a friend find yourselves stuck in a tight spot (hole in wall, a small window, etc.), you have TWO options.

1: Take one of these and cover your friend/get your friend to cover you. The extra slippery-ness will usually guarantee a swift escape from any constriction!

2: [REDACTED]

Submit

Does Flame Clense Me or Fire Deadly Sin get rid of being oiled?

Submit

step 2: blasphemous blade
step 3: go nuts

Submit

I havnt tested it yet but throwing one of those before a fire reposte on a boss sounds like a fun time

Submit

Does this work on the first tick from Agheel's Flame, or the whole thing?

Submit

They're good, but the proc of the oil can get nullified by rolls in a similar way to bleed or poison moth flight

Submit

Don’t sleep on these in PvP! I have a XANTHOUS KING build, get some gankers chasing you, drop some roped oils, use endure and then cast the flame pillars spell…70 Faith with incant talismans and 2 giant seals…goodbye gankers

Submit

Pure faith build, Flame Art infusion, fire scorpion... Fun times.

Submit

Bring wood and oil.

Submit

For fun use this and a Fire-Infused Greatsword with Lion's Claw in your next Colossal Greatsword playthrough.

Kill every Erdtree Avatar in three hits.

Submit

Aim and pivot toss Oil Pot at the enemy. Then use a fast Fire-infused weapon or a fire weapon skill, like Flaming Strike or Unsheathe. Frostbite beforehand is all the more rewarding.

Submit

often times the oil pot proc gets eaten by rolls in pvp, so you really gotta be careful when you choose to proc it.

Submit

"Lol look at this goober throwing crap at me. Does no damage cause im that good! He wont hit me with that spell ei-"

Many people in this wiki dont seem to understand the real use of these. Fire magic is widely regarded as clunky, unreliable & overcosted. Combine that with the frequent environmental penalties, and the unfortunate fact that health and fire defense scale together. Oil pots are not meant to supplement your flamestrike combo or dragon breath spam. They boost a single tick of fire damage. This is good for big spells like o flame & giantsflame, or even flame of the fell god (but why would you use that) assuming you can set them up or free aim. Most players cannot free aim or set up such spells making them less effective & rarely seen. If you want to skillfully fireball your way out of ganks this is a pyro invaders bread & butter.

Submit

caelid enemies are weak to fire
1) cover everyone in oil
2) cover yourself in oil

25/04/XXXX the caelid incident

Submit

Underrated for fth users, giantsflame take thee already does great damage, so imagine a enemies fire def cut into half. Its pretty devastating. Might even be able to 1 shot erdtree avatars with this

Submit

GREASE ME UP, WOMAN

Submit

Feel like these are underrated, 50% boost is nothing to sneeze at. Ive been getting gross dmg numbers using these and catch flame with other dmg boosts stacked.

Submit

Does this work with explosive bolts ?

Submit

not that great but at least they're easy to craft

Submit

i like to through them on ppl when they bowing

Submit

wish there was any kinda of visual indicator for when things were oiled

Submit

Should edit this to 25%
Tested on the one eyed shield weapon art fireball

Without oil I did 1137.
With oil I did 1421.

With flame grant me strength and fire cracked tear on top of the oil it did a little over 2000.

Submit

Step tarnished, I'm stuck. Oil me up!

Submit

Step 2

Submit

Is there a time limit of the effect?

Submit

The biggest problem with oil pots in all FS games is definitely that it only boosts the very next source of fire damage, even if it's like a measly 10 chip damage.

They really should have developed this mechanic more. Add a full-body burning VFX that gets triggered on the next source of fire damage, and have it last just a second or two. Then give the damage bonus to both the triggering fire damage and all fire damage dealt during the short VFX.

As it is, it requires too much planning to be useful in multiplayer, or other more hectic combat.

Submit

While farming Magma Blade, tested this with Golden Vow; Flame, Grant Me Strenght; Wounderous Flask Boosting Strenght and Fire Damage; a single Giant's Seal +25; 80 Faith; 25 Strenght and the results were this while hiting the Crawling Albinauric after the Wooden Elevator used in the farming route for the sword:

Without Oil pot: 1165
With Oil pot: 1700

* THIS WAS WITH CATCH FLAME. *

Submit

Giant brains spend their cracked pots on oil, and ritual pots on giantsflame. Both are stupidly cheap and cheesy

Submit

If you're a faith/fire build, these are good to keep on your equipped items when you summon mimic since they will toss them in during the fight.

Submit

best used on a waifu character

Submit

Can these stack on the enemy?

Submit

a guy oneshot me at 1581 hp with a fire nagakiba after I rolled through one of these
it was even raining, too

Submit

Really wish it atleast, you know, outdamaged just throwing 2 fire pots instead lmao

Submit

Seems like a 25% dmg amp on the next instance of fire dmg.
Tested this with the one-eyed shield +10 weapon art on the giant right before the secluded cell grace, base dmg against giant was 1663, dmg after hitting it with the oil pot was 2079, a 25% increase but seems like the dmg amp only works for 1 instance of fire dmg before being consumed. Hope this helps.

Submit

I propose for this to be the new dung pie. It's easy to craft and pretty useless.

Boil him in oil

Submit

would this affect the DOT of black flame spells and weapons

Submit

Love to use this in conjunction with the One-eyed Shield. Improves the explosive **** damage exponentially.

Submit

Only buffs the first instance of fire damage on the afflicted target, then the debuff disappears. Best used with single hit, high potency fire abilities like the Blasphemous Blade's weapon art. These are fantastic for conserving mana; they cost 0FP to throw and improve damage quite a lot with the right build. They are some of the easiest pots to craft as well; Melted Mushrooms can be farmed easily in Nokron and 1 Melted Mushroom = 1 Oil Pot.

Submit

Going to use this in my "Bear Witness!" only run.

Submit

Step 2: cover your enemies in oil

Submit

How long does it last on them

Submit

in theory, if you use this in conjunction with the jar cannon and exploding greatbolt, you could do a lot of damage
