Does anyone know if the AoW buffs the weapon with lightning damage

Submit

I love when I’m beating guys in pvp, they just run away and start spamming this. Usually only happens when they are losing too.

Submit

Always remember- you're the only one who's justified for using it. It's okay that you did 600 damage per shot! Your opponent only took that much damage because they weren't skilled, or something. But it's still not fair when someone else uses it.

Apparently this scales with weapon AR also.
Try keen banished knights GS

Submit

Wish Lightning scaled with Fath or dex instead of either.
Makes Lightning themed builds much more limited.
Fire has a workaround, with the Fire infusion and Flame Art Infusion.
Holy is decidedly not Lightning.

Submit

Nothing more satisfying than killing a sweet lord on low HP scurrying his inventory to find a Blue-Feathered Branchsword or some regen items in duels with this. Get pikachued MF.

Submit

I would fix it by removing its scaling. It does a solid 250 dmg on a medium weapon with heavy or sacred infusion etc... There is no reason for this to do 400 to 600 dmg on keen.

Submit

for the life of me I cannot explain why this is in the game. literally just honed bolt but no stat requirement

Submit

When you want to be a age but forgot to level faith or intelligence.

An excellent tool to keep in your back pocket on a dagger.
It doesn't make the Chiming Sound that Honed Bolt does so it great for picking of Passive Players in Duels when they're low health and or trying to bait to Poke.

Submit

and this is faster than honed bolt on max cast speed because why?

Submit

Annoying that ashes of War like this and ice spear are faster, stronger, cheaper and more spammable than the majority of spells or incantations with next to no investment

A solid case for why hard switching should be restricted durring battle (when music plays)
On its own, it’s a spammable ranged harass that has its weak points, if you fight close. However I see people hard switching to a weapon with this when an opponent is low health and it’s speed when coupled with the instant switch is more obnoxious than even Moonveil.
I wouldn’t call for nerfs, but having hard switching in this context makes it way better than it is.

Submit

This needs a nerf ASAP. Not just for damage, but because of phantom range. In Pvp this thing is invisible half the time and if the ping is off just a little bit it roll catches itself. Good Pve broken Pvp

Can this be found post the Capital having a "makeover"?

Submit

Ive been thinking about throwing this on a keen dagger and using it for ranged damage instead of my pulley crossbow. It has better tracking despite its limited range, weighs less and might do more damage. Unfortunately my use of a parry shield in the offhand would make this harder to use in a pinch because id have to 2 hand or cycle it away.

I use the crossbow for shutting down mages and colossal users, pinning people with sleep bolts to set up waterfowl dance, sniping people before they chug, punishing whiffs. Its just too good to put down. This ash of war is very good but not versatile enough for my playstyle. God help you if you invade and find a gank spamming it though.

Submit

Scales off of weapon level like other ashes of war, it can do se nasty damage if you use it right

Submit

Very useful when the attention isn't on you
