Description

A legendary sword with dual stance attacks: a comet beam and a sweeping flame slash. Requires high INT and FTH.

Affinity Recommendation

Cannot be infused -- requires balanced INT/FTH investment

Tips & Strategy

•Stance R1 fires a Comet Azur-style beam -- massive damage at range against slow enemies
•Stance R2 does a wide flame sweep -- better for groups and close range
•Requires balanced INT/FTH investment (24/24 minimum) which limits other stat flexibility
•Was extremely overpowered at launch -- still strong after nerfs for hybrid builds
•Pair with Golden Order Seal for incantations that also scale with both INT and FTH
