📜 - - - DESCRIPTION - - - 📜
There are 91 ashes of war in total. Some are bad, some are sad, some are blatant reiterations of spells and other abilities you find elsewhere in the game. You can charge, you can thrust, you can bash, you can slash. I include some motion values in with the list in efforts to try and be at least semi-objective, but if it's a personal favorite of mine, it'll probably still in the top somewhere.

Square off being that low is criminal, I can understand it though since the value isn’t obvious. What makes Square Off good is the insane stance damage. The light attack of Square Off does as much stance as the unsheathe heavy attack, and the Square Off heavy attack does *more.* You’re giving the stance breaking power of a Colossal weapon to a Straight Sword attack.

Indeed. I was also surprised to see Assassin's Gambit that low since I use it all the time against bosses to get better positioning when I enter the fight. It's really good for Godskin Duo because you can start the fight without triggering aggro, allowing for easier sleep pot throws. Maybe it's more useful for speedrun strats but still, I was surprised to see both Gambit and Square Off that low

I was very confused as well, square off stance breaks all bosses in 2-3 hits. And the damage on the heavy attack is very good. I played a run where I didn't feel like wasting smithing stones to upgrade the longsword and just used at +0 till draconic sentinel. No problem whatsoever. And I am not some kind of god gamer, the ash is just that good.

Definitely Agree. Its damage value on stance and HP are still great to use for riposte strategy againt many enemys despite of its limit of straightsword themselves. I agree it can be inferior compared to other fast, wide, and easy ones from Katanas and other OP AoW, but It is still reliable and powerful even in late game area. Makes me sad as a player who finished whole game with Lordsworn Straightsword and shield.

Im sure someone has already mentioned it, but each projectile in rain of arrows actually uses the same type of arrow fired. Meaning you can use just 1 single rot, sleep, poison, bleed, etc. Arrow, and get massive buildup, great for starting fights with big enemies/bosses by giving them status effects before they break idle animation

Poison moth flight is actually kinda awesome given you establish poison on the target before you hit with it. Explodes the enemy’s health with all the damage the poison tick would’ve done all at once. Allowing you to start another poison proc and if you have the mushroom crown, that’s 10% 20 second damage boon, reset and regained in just a few swings. Put the ash on something with innate bleed damage and now your doing that too.

Two months late, but I feel it's worth mentioning for Barricade Shield. The weapon art is, itself, a block. You can intercept an enemy attack on like frame one with that by just hitting the left trigger and nine times out of ten they'll bounce off and leave themselves wide open to a guard counter. If you hold left bumper after tapping left trigger you won't even drop the shield after activating the shield buff.

Flaming Strike and Sacred Blade are my favorite ashes. Why? because you can 2 hand your left weapon, activate the ash, then go back to dual wielding, activate the ash on your right weapon, and now you have 2 buffed weapons that you can powerstance. Sacred Blade is actually slightly better for this because you can actually get ranged damage while the enemy comes closer, making up for double the activation time. Also, if they run away when using dual Sacred Blade, just fire another projectile at them. In PvP its amazing, and against anything with a holy weakness in PvE, you'll absolutely destroy them. Same goes for fire weakness with Flaming Strike.

I initially disimissed Bloody Slash because, in spite of it doing more damage than any other option I'd chosen at that point in the game, it just didn't fit the theme I was going for. ...then I remembered the paladin skill "Sacrifice" from Diablo 2, and that was all the mental gymnastics I needed to Bloody Slash my way through half the game 😁

Stamp: Sweep is the only AOW I use for my Greatsword bleed build. It’s a quick animation and with 166 bleed buildup with 60 arcane you can proc blood loss on most enemies in a single sweep if you land both hits which is easy enough to do. Obviously there are more optimal builds for bleed but if you love colossal weapons like I do then it’s a super fun variation to the standard strength build.

I know multiple people have mentioned this, but square off is insanely good and it being rated this low is criminal. Pairing it with bleed, crimson dagger, and decent poise straight up let's you trade damage with Malenia and win. Most things in the game will be stance broken and procced with bleed within 2 to 3 hits, and combining that with how ridiculously efficient it is plus the R2 having pretty decent tracking once you've iron out the range is the reason I run a straight sword in my off hand. The thing is absolutely a disk one nuke and unambiguously one of the best ashes in the game for what it gives you verses the cost.

@@pyramidhead2719 That thing you say about poison? That's Poison Moth Flight's version of poison. It has Deadly Poison, which lasts a third of normal poison's duration but deals double the damage per second. It's actually slightly more than the poison of Fetid Pots, because those inflict the same percent hp as Deadly Poison but has a lower flat base damage value. On top of that, as somerandomperson said, hitting an already poisoned enemy with it will apply a percent damage effect, dealing 5% of the enemy's health (plus 250 base damage). This is worse than bleed, of course, because bleed is 15% on normal enemies and 10.5% on bosses (plus 100-200 base damage), and it will immediately end whatever poison effect is currently active, meaning that, for maximum damage, you'd time this effect for near the end of a poison duration, but it's still percent damage being added onto a percent damage effect. And, as rhettbutler mentions, you can put Poison Moth Flight on an Antspur Rapier with the bleed affinity, letting you effectively triple stack on percent health effects. The ash's strike inflicts 250 poison buildup, so use of a poison affinity is completely unnecessary.

The reason for redundant AoWs that can only be used on a certain weapon type (like Square Off) is so you can use them with other Affinities. That is the main problem with Flails, if you want to use Spinning Chain, you are stuck with Standard affinity.

Something Rusty forgot to mention with Giant Hunt is how it fairs against humanoid enemies. About 80-90% of humanoid enemies and some bosses get absolutely thrown around by Giant Hunt, from the basic knight enemies to Banished Knights, Omens getting knocked onto their backs, Crucible Knights getting flinched and knocked back, and even Malenia getting burger flipped by this AoW. It also deals thrust damage, so it's a ridiculous counter to land as its large damage only gets amplified if you catch an enemy mid attack.

No joke, i adore these lists. Its these minute details that make me feel like there is always more to discover in a game and just sometimes you discover something that really changes the way you look at certain abilities. Thank you for all these ridiculous details and long videos, Rusty

Square off is nice. It does the same amount of stance damage as the old king of stance breaks, the flame of the redmanes

Fun Fact: Golden Lands explosion spawns at the ground where the sword hits, knowing this if you activate it on a ledge with the swords tip over air the explosion will spawn under the ledge at the ground level below you. You can achieve something similar with fortissax spears

19:58 Something a lot of people forget about the 2-handed greatshield moveset is the incredible running r1. It already blocks as you move forward at a running speed, and if used well can make shield bash look slow and predictable in comparison. Shield Crash can do some ridiculous damage if specced right on the right shields, so it fills a niche much better than Shield Bash.

Its really awesome to see stormblade so high on the list. its such an amazing ash of war amplified by the time its aquired (Storm hill). And that not even talking about the global usability! It doesnt matter what stats you take as long as your weapon is upgraded the damage is reliable and consistent on those wind blasts. Can be used with damn near any affinity so it can adjust to your needs and put on almost any weapon so its almost never a wrong choice. That ash, like you said, makes so much of the early game a joke in the most enjoyable way possible. Able to make a range crippled class start a trivial inconvenience at worst, thre is really nothing like it and I cant think of an ashe of war that deserved the 5 spot better.

one of my favorite low level invasion builds is chilling in stormveil with storm assault bkh and storm blade on a lordsword ss or something. Fast to pick up and always delivers on comedy.

White shadow lure is actually really good with heal builds. Equip it on butchering knife and you can get healed per enemy lured. The more enemies effected by the lure the more heals you get in 1 cast. It can also be used for a great starter farm on new characters provided you have someone to help you transfer it to a fresh character. Equipped on the celebrant's great skull hammer you'll get 20 runes per enemy effected by white shadow lure. This really shines at the first camp you get your first map piece because all enemies rush you once they blow the horn then all you have to do is lure the group until you run out of mp flasks and reset at the grace until you reach the desired amount of runes.

Not sure if it has already been mentioned or if it has been patched yet but last I checked, Assassins Gambit has a wonderful little interaction in pvp when used with Unseen Form that makes your character untargetable by other players. Not exactly overpowered but it can cause some chaos when you're up against people who don't think to free aim.

I don't know if you are aware of this or just didn't put it in the video but when you use Poison Moth Flight on an already poisoned enemy it does bonus damage and removes the poison. That has great synergy with the Kindred of Rot talisman because it allows you to take advantage of the buff while not having to wait for the poison to run out. The bonus damage is not negligible either it's very noticeable, like a bleed proc. That doesn't make it broken since you can just use bleed build and you'll probably have better results but I don't think it's in the bottom 10 worst ashes.

I've used golden land in pvp, surprisingly effective since some opponents don't expect the follow up R2 and the range attacks that come with it is good for suppression

Seeing square off being placed at 82 got me utterly flabbergasted. Everything else seems fairly placed but I was expecting to see square off in at LEAST top 15. Personally, I would put square off in the top 5.

fun fact: few people are aware that Hoarah Loux earthshaker initial scream multihits and staggers strongly anything that is really close to you. So when paired with millicent's prosthesis and/or the sword insignias, the shakes actually hit like trucks being already boosted by about 10%.

Poisonous Mist: This ash will always have a special place in my heart for its interaction on a Bloody Antspur Rapier. It rots, bleeds and poisons at the same time. No matter if PvP or PvE, at least something will stick. If you want to see an enemy truly melt, try this on one susceptible to all three of those. Well, unless you are Goldfrey, at least.

Stormcaller on a grave scythe with bleed is insane. At least it was before the current patch, haven't tested it. All i know is me and two buddies melted Melania on NG+ 5 by forming a triangle around her and spamming this ability. Didn't get hit ONCE. We were cracking up as we had just spent the last HOUR getting our collective cheeks clapped by her.
