it do multi hit. the question is, how much stance dam each hit deal?
-if i do full multi hit on godfrey, 2 of this skill will break him.
-but if i only hit him with last hit, then I need this skill 3 time to break him.
all case I do full charge. not sure full charge will affect dam/stance dam or not. that another quetion.
also break boss feel so cool.

Just in case no one mentioned this, it seems like you can use this ash to survive some falls that would normally kill you (huge ones, i.e. from the top of Ranni’s rise, will still cause you to die). You just have to activate it at a ledge and direct the cloud downward. Might be because fall distance only starts when you come out of the cloud form.

if only it gave I frames then it would be perfect for escaping waterfowl dance, given timing.

Ironically it kind of sucks against dragons since the hitbox on it is so low

just accidentally discovered how much stance damage this thing does and then pretended that was my plan all along

A couple of things I don't see here. Hyper armour aside, the putrid corpses that infest a beach at weeping peninsula were able to grab me AFTER I had cast the AoW and transformed into the thundercloud. I don't know if this is because they had target locked me, or whatever the mob version is, before I had cast it or if they can grab you regardless.
Also, if you cast this AoW up close to a large enemy, like the giant octopus, it isn't one hit.
The octopus prevents the thundercloud moving forward so gets hit multiple times pretty quickly and each hit does damage. I don't know if this triggers rotten winged sword because I saw counter intuitive results when I had it equipped.

Best anti gank weapon imo. I’ve killed two people in one charged hit with this.
Changing targets mid cloud form is also kind of OP.
Also really poops on ROB if you have good poise

You will take damage using this since it is only hyperarmor and not immunity unless the enemy miss

Well we wanted Radahns meteor ride, but we got this so it's something I suppose

Now, I know it says it’s a chargeable skill here, but I’ve also heard that Godfrey’s Icon does nothing for it; so is this talisman useful when charging the AoW?

The damage immunity seems random.
I'll he hitting with both magic and melee and they just randomly take damage using this aow.
Hate how inconsistent elden ring is

This skill seems to do insane damage with winged sword insignia and similar things vs. large enemies. Fully charging the skill at close range will have you hitting a big enemy several times in the air before the final attack since the thundercloud part of the attack actually has a hitbox, giving you the full successive attacks buff on the already crazy high damage final hit of a fully charged attack with this. I used this against Elden Beast and was able to do about 3000 damage with every skill usage with only 40 dex and rotten winged sword insignia. Literally made Elden Beast easier than Radagon on my first playthrough, beat it on my second try making it past Radagon.

Is the weapon art 100% lightning damage? Or is it split physical and lightning?

If you can wield the weapon, this is great for chasing down people or gapclosing in PVP and during boss fights. Combine this with the hyper armor and high speeds, and you can even use this to escape fights.
This weapon is effective against Maliketh. I think the WA helps mitigate her damage

I need to know if your character acquires immunity while transformed into a cloud.

this weapon art is absolute BALLER in pvp when you can land it LOL
if you using another weapon switch to this and track them
you're literally sending a warhead to their position
I've murdered countless hosts on accidet cause for one i didnt think it'd travel that far
situational asf but its GOOD

Very good against the Great Jar knights. Get in their face, let the lightning stagger them, then slam them to the ground. Spammed it, and got through all three without getting hit.
