Elden Ring Sacred Blade Guide, Notes & Tips

• This is an Ash of War Skill, associated with the Ash of War: Sacred Blade.
• FP Cost: 19
• Deals 6 stance damage
• This Skill is not Chargeable
• This Skill cannot be Parried (the Holy projectile can be Parried with Carian Retaliation)
  • This Skill can be Parried if performed with no Focus.
• After windup it throws a holy arc to a single target with medium range.
• It will also buff the weapon in your right hand with additional 90 holy attack power for 40 sec. Doesn't scale with Faith nor change with weapon kind and upgrades. This buff takes place right before the projectile is fired.
• Takes roughly 1.3 seconds to cast as of Patch 1.04.
• Deals 100% Holy Damage and an extra +100% damage to undead.
• Deals extra damage when hitting the weak spots of enemies, such as the head of a death bird.
• If you are close enough to the target, you will hit the target with the weapon itself and deal additional weapon damage instead of just the projectile.
• Even at low levels of faith, the projectile deals a lot of damage to undead. A +9 sacred morning star with 15 faith averages nearly 1000 damage against skeletons.
• Skeletons that would usually reanimate will stay dead if killed by the projectile, even if a necromancer is nearby.
