Acquisition

On a body very far down at the cliff west of the Bestial Sanctum, on the same level as the Dragoncrest Shield Talisman. The Tarnished must carefully descend the cliffs by jumping onto roots, the domes of the pillars, and outcrops on the walls and pillars. Rainbow Stones can be used to help navigate safe descent.

Notes

• Increases the damage of Bestial Incantations by 10% when wielded.
  • The Clawmark Seal can be held in the other to stack the boost to 21%.
• This weapon cannot be buffed.
• Very good Strength-scaling.
  • While a pure Strength build may seem the best idea for this dagger this is somewhat compromised by the fact that it seems intended to be paired with the Clawmark Seal. Instead, a slightly uneven 60/30 split for Strength and Faith may be better to preserve most of the dagger's damage while still gaining good scaling on the Seal.
  • Having Quickstep as its skill is actually quite beneficial as it lets the user reposition quickly before or after casting a spell. Paired with alternating between quick casts of Bestial Vitality and swift dagger swipes and you have a decent setup.
• This is the second longest dagger, being ever so slightly outmatched by the Miséricorde.

Upgrading

• Upgraded with Somber Smithing Stones.
• Cannot have its Affinity and Skill changed.
• The upper number in the Atk column denotes Physical base damage while the lower, colored number in the Atk column denotes elemental base damage: red for Fire damage, yellow for Lightning damage, orange for Holy damage, and cyan for Magic damage.
• See the Weapon Scaling page for what the scaling values mean.

Trivia
