Keep in mind that since weapon affinity affects weapon damage, different weapon affinities will yield different amounts of damage based on player stats when using a melee-based Ash of War.Īshes of War that consist of casting spells (like the projectile of Ash of War: Glintstone Pebble or the magic sword attack of Ash of War: Carian Grandeur) do not change the damage of the spell based on weapon damage. Holding the weapon in one or two hands does not affect melee damage from an Ash of War (since weapons are always two-handed when using an Ash of War, even if used through a Ash of War: No Skill on the left hand). Hybrid Ashes of War that have both types of attacks, either alternated or at the same time.Īshes of War that consist of melee attacks have their damage based on weapon damage.Spell-based Ashes of War, whose damage is affected by upgrade level, weapon affinity type applied and the stat associated with the Ash of War (NOT affected by weapon damage).Melee-based Ashes of War, whose damage is affected only by weapon damage.There are three main types of Ashes of War: They are not consumed upon use, but rather "slotted" into an armament and can be freely swapped in and out. Their descriptions define which armaments they can be applied to, such as Ash of War: Barricade Shield which states that it is "usable on all shields."Īshes of War can be freely assigned to armaments without cost, unlike the Gems of FromSoftware's previous title, Dark Souls 3.

Doing so will restore the armament's original skill and affinity.Īshes of War are not universally compatible with armaments. It is possible to undo your selection by repeating the aforementioned process and choosing the same Ash of War, but instead select "Undo Enhancement" instead of an affinity. The selected affinity will determine the attack power, attribute scaling, guarded damage negation, and passive effects of the armament. Once inside the menu, you can select from your available Ashes of War to replace the armament's skill and grant an optional Affinity.
