Followups need hyperarmor real bad

Submit

how can the followup attacks look so cool but be so bad?

Submit

There should be a "No Change" Ash of War that lets you use a whetblade to infuse a weapon while keeping the weapon's skill the same.

In awe of the huge amount of information this page has

if you wanted to make a build around this, you'd need to use a standard path flail since there's no ash for Spinning Chain. Chainlink flail is the best option since its standard path has the best damage and scaling out of any other flail. Spinning chain goes for as long as you hold the button down so you can easily benefit from Rotten Winged Sword Insignia and Millicent's Prosthesis (raises attack power with successive strikes). And since it's the standard upgrade path you can use buffs like Bloodflame Blade to help you spam proc bleed.

This lands more hits than wild strikes despite dealing less damage per hit so it's better for bleed/frost buildup... Of course that would be much better if we had an interchangeable spinning chain ash of war. Straight swords have Square Off and Katanas have Unsheathe so I don't know why flails can't get spinning chain.

I know its disappointing we don't get to have the weapon art and heavy infused, but we do get "wild strikes" ash of war. It has basically the same effect as this.

Submit

Worth noting that despite not dealing weapon damage when you have no FP, you can still use it for a stun lock vs certain enemies, and it still does decent DPS with the bleed despite no weapon damage.

Submit

So katanas get their unsheath as an AoW, but we don't this for flails? why?

Submit

You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round like a record, baby, right 'round, 'round, 'round

Submit

npc invaders don't know what to do against this. just stand over their spawnpoint and hold the button.

Submit

this works amazing on NPC invaders, just spin it until they bleed to death and die. for some reason they wont roll

Submit

just grab this and hold L2 at the caelid dragon. profit

Mayazaki is such a fvcking hack bro, he screws over Flails in the first game they're introduced by not including this in the game. Ashes of War being tied to infusions is fvcking CANCER.

OH BUT OF COURSE KATANAS STILL GET THEIR SHEATH AS A AoW, WHAT A JOKE

Submit

Is there some way to keep this skill while applying a heavy infusion?

Submit

holding down the special attack button causes it quickly to spin in tight circles, will continue to drain FP until hit attack while holding the button

Submit

Against a large enemy that gives you the time, this move is insane for building up bleed. Also great for ganking invaders as they pop in, flail blender op.
