Description

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇯🇵

Piercing Gravel Stone sword containing primeval lightning. A portion of the Dragonlord's power, gained from a remembrance.

This weapon commands great power over the paltry, mortal dragons of today.

原初の雷を宿したさざれ石の刺剣
追憶から得られた、竜王の力の片鱗

永遠なき、卑小な竜の末裔たちに
高い威力を発揮する

Acquisition

Trade: Roundtable Hold

• Trade the Remembrance of the Dragonlord, gained by defeating Dragonlord Placidusax, with Finger Reader Enia.
  • Alternatively, use one of the Wandering Mausoleums to duplicate one (can only obtain one per playthrough using either method).

Notes

• The Unique Skill: Thundercloud Form is a but slow but hits very hard, and the combination of reach due to its lunge and midflight Super Armor makes it a good initial attack or way to engage a tough enemy as its attack combo.
  • The skill is chargeable, but does NOT benefit from the Godfrey Icon.
• Has a 30% damage boost against Dragons and a 15% damage boost against Ancient Dragons.
  • Since this weapon primarily deals Pierce-type damage, which is most dragons weakness, it is well suited to this anti-dragon role. Be aware that Borealis the Freezing Fog is a Pierce-resistant dragon and that all Ancient Dragons resist the secondary Lightning damage.
• The Dexterity-scaling is responsible for increasing both the Physical damage and the Lightning damage.
  • The Physical/Lightning split is roughly 60%/40%.
• Scales best with Dexterity, up to the 80 point softcap.
  • There is a small benefit from Strength, though that falls off pretty harshly after 40 points in the stat.

Upgrading

• This weapon is upgraded with Somber Smithing Stones.
• This weapon can't be infused with Ashes of War or buffed.
