These skills deal a mixture of damage from an armament and its spell attacks (e.g., Sacred Blade strikes with the armament and shoots a projectile). It makes no difference if Glintstone Pebble (Skill) is being cast from a Dagger or Short Sword, assuming all other factors are equal. This means that the spell damage of a skill is independent of what type of armament it is being used on. For example: a Standard Dagger with Glintstone Pebble (Skill) will still see its skill damage increase with Intelligence, despite the armament's lack of Intelligence scaling.

Your attributes that match the Ash of War's original affinity (e.g., Ash of War: Glintstone Pebble is tied to the Magic affinity, and Magic favors Intelligence)Įven if the armament now lacks the attribute scaling related to its respective skill, your attributes will still contribute to the spell damage dealt.Affinity granted to the armament: choosing an affinity other than the original one stated by the Ash of War will decrease its skill's damage.The damage done by these skills is based on three distinct factors: These skills have spell attacks that are cast (e.g., Glintstone Pebble (Skill) or Carian Grandeur) in a similar way to Staves and Sacred Seals.

Typical factors that would affect the damage of an armament's standard moveset will increase the damage of these skills.

These skills strike with the armament, dealing damage based on the power of your armament. There are three distinct ways that skills deal damage: It may only be used with shields and torches. Removing a skill entirely from an armament is unique to the Ash of War: No Skill. Within the Ashes of War menu, simply select the ash of war in use and choose to "Undo Enhancement." Skills granted by Ashes of War can be removed at any time.
