Not only did this weapon allow me to first try Radahn for the first time, it also didn't even let him reach his second phase it killed him so quickly

Your referring to starscourge and not promised consort I assume right?

I was preparing to get beat by Radahn many time, But with this weapon AOW I beat him in 3 tries. In my third try he didn’t even get to phase 2 too. 😂

One of my favorite weapons in the game full stop. The lore surrounding it is neat, the double helix design is gorgeous, the moveset is so stylish, and the black flame being as aesthetically cool as it is, is the cherry on top. It communicates very well that this sword is the stuff of legends. It's the weapon I used for my NG+7 run, and it melted absolutely *everything*. It more than earns the Godslayer moniker

@AndreaDg1989 Ай бұрын

I built a character around this weapon when the Ash of War was bugged and did not have any poise at all while performing it, rendering it basically useless since even the weakest attack would interrupt it; I was so disappointed because the sword's moveset is awesome and the damage of the AoW when it landed was awesome as well. Now that it's fixed, I respecced one of my endgame character to use that and immediately went against Malenia, totaly destroyed her. I'm so glad they fixed the poise issue!

@lincolnprestes7617 Ай бұрын

this weapon is really good, it was flying over the radar, before the last patch the weapon was bugged, the ash of war did not have hyper armor. Now it is one of the best for PVE

My blind DLC run was using this, the black knife, and all the blackflame incants. I was really expecting some godskin/ destined death content in the DLC so I tried to do a thematic build. Then when I found the suppressing pillar I spent hours trying to figure out it's puzzle. 💀 (I was so confident once I found the 4th piece of grave bird armor that wearing it there would trigger something.)

Not only does the DLC don't include any black flame related stuff, black flame against DLC bosses do less % damage. Still, such a missed opportunity. Black flame is cool and this sword is one of my favourites.

This weapon is funny to use against shield pokers in pvp. They think they can just block the ash but in reality they just get melted through the guard. If they somehow are still standing after that, I just swap to something like pata and finish them as they panic roll away. This thing’s an absolute trading machine

@Greywander87 Ай бұрын

IIRC the ash of war was kind of bad until recently because it had no hyper armor. Now it has hyper armor, so it's harder to get staggered out of it. I've been curious about this weapon, and I love the aesthetics of black flame. Maybe I'll do a run with it at some point. I'm not sure what armor to wear; the Godskin stuff doesn't appeal to me and there's very little armor with a black-and-white aesthetic. I've already done a Colossal Sword run, though, so maybe I should be trying weapon types I haven't used yet. Was also thinking about doing a "Promised Consort of Melina" build where I dual wield this with Maliketh's sword. Black Flame + Destined Death.

@albegade 2 ай бұрын

Have been thinking about this weapon a little recently. I wonder if queen's black flame is stronger than a critical hit. For example with malenia poise break may be an opportunity for it. But she gets up fast so idk.

@the_jersey_side 2 ай бұрын

@albegade It may be worth to go for the Ash of War instead of a critical with malenia. It will for sure do more damage, and the move will stum her unless she pulls a quick move with hyperarmor!

@fra224 2 ай бұрын

I usually go for the crit and aow right after, while she's getting up

@BirdMoose 2 ай бұрын

If you have the right build it almost always is, this thing can easily hit for double a crit in my experience. On big bosses like the Dancing Lion if your timing is just right you can get the AoW into a crit and then try and get the 1st hit off again as it gets up.

Yeah Godslayer's Greatsword is fucking good, I have it in one of my characters which had mainly an arcane/dex build, however in my NG+3 I started to level up fate and some strenght to use dragon incantations and some heavier weapons more efectively, while going throug the DLC and the base game, I was doing a personal minichallenge (because I don't stream or anything) to change my weapon and correspondant build each time I died (I have tons of weapon lying around without use just because normally I tend to sit on the same weapons) after one of my deaths I pick up this weapon, upgrade it to +10, slapped some talismans useful for heavy weapons and dual wielding (ediy: in fact the shard of alexander and the 2 handed sword talisman + the one who buffs R2 charged attacks), and OMFG I fell like 5 bosses includying 2 main ones, fortissax and another one I don't remember its name right now, without issue, it was glorious I only changed the weapon because I died in a stupid way so I had to change my build, but each time I have to get serious against a boss which isn't vulnerable to bleeds, I take out this beauty to absolute bonk everything to oblivion, with extreme prejudice and cool looking black flames. XD

@valentai_777 It's not suited for every both, but you can fit the ash of war in all bosses. In a lot of bosses without the risk of getting hit in others by trading a bit, and considering in one of the previous patches, it now actually generates poise (a.k.a. hyper armor) you won't get stunned out of it if you take a hit or two, and the damage is big enough for it to be worthy

@davidedgar5923 2 ай бұрын

The AoW is too slow. The initial hit doesn't stagger the target long enough to complete the first hit much less the second one. You get knocked out of the attack too easily. And the base damage of the weapon isn't that great. Godslayer is C tier at best.
