Ashes of War is one of the major game-changing fundamentals introduced to Elden Ring. It is basically a skill that can be attached to a weapon to add special effects.

Apart from weapon skills, they also help enhance some vital scaling stats such as strength, dexterity, intelligence, and others. Depending on the kind of build players want, they can attach an Ash of War and introduce a lot of variety to their gameplay.

Fortunately, Elden Ring provides a vast list of Ashes of War for players to obtain across the game. However, seven Ashes of War have been listed in this article that players will find useful in almost all circumstances.

This Ash of War used to be the best for a long time. However, it got nerfed a few times, which ultimately affected its overall effectiveness. Despite that, it is still quite good and can deal a lot of damage to bosses.

When used, players will swing their weapon accompanied by a massive spray of blood that will damage and inflict the bleed status effect. However, apart from that, players will also take a hit to their own health bar.

In most cases, the Uchigatana is probably the best weapon to use this with as the weapon swing is swift and clean.
