Notes

  • Physical damage scales most strongly with Strength, with weaker Dexterity scaling.
  • Holy damage scales most strongly with Faith.
  • Upgrade it with Somber Smithing Stones. Its maximum upgrade is +10.
  • Its Golden Vow skill is fixed and cannot be replaced with an Ash of War.
  • Grease and weapon enchantments cannot be applied. Its affinity is fixed as well as its skill.
  • Requires 30 Strength, 14 Dexterity and 12 Faith and weighs 13.5. Two-handing meets its Strength requirement at 20, while the other two requirements remain unchanged.
  • Strength is the main Physical attribute, with Faith improving Holy damage. Its early availability does not remove its substantial wielding and equip-load requirements.
  • Golden Vow costs 40 FP and lasts 45 seconds. In PvE it increases damage by 11.5% and reduces incoming damage by 7.5%; in PvP these bonuses are 2.5% and 1.5%.
  • The skill buffs you and nearby allies. It occupies the aura-buff slot, so it does not stack with the Golden Vow incantation or another version of that aura.
  • This version needs no 25-Faith spell requirement. The incantation is a separate, longer-lasting option with different costs and bonuses.
  • Its overhead heavy attacks help reach taller targets. The Holy component is always present, and highly Holy-resistant enemies reduce that part of each hit.
  • The first Limgrave Tree Sentinel gives one guaranteed copy. The pair outside Leyndell has different rewards, and killing every Tree Sentinel is unnecessary.
