80 faith for Flame, 80 Int for Night to have full power. Buffs used were Alexanders Shard, Fire Scorpion, Flame, Grant Me Strength (didnt do much) and Terra Magica. As well as Flame + Magic tears. Still does a lot of damage! Haven't used it since the nerf. Didn't use it too much before, either. But, I remember how insane it used to be

does the offhand seal not buff the fire part of the damage? i thought atleast a staff would work and in lore it should be the flame of the fell god

Quick tip, the spellblade set makes the 'Night' part of the ash of war do more damage, I'm not sure if the glintstone crown affects it though.

Glintstone crown doesn't really affect magic damage at all. All it does it slightly boost Int like a couple points. The best setup for boosting the damage of this weapon would be the spellblade set, the Alexander Jar talisman, the graven mass/school talismans (boost sorcery damage which counts for magic weapon arts) and the magic scorpion charm. Add to that the flask that boosts magic damage even further

They really need to add in dark infusions from ds2 and 3 in the upcoming dlc. If you want to use the fundamentalist incants with the golden order seal or deathbird spells with the prince of death staff, this sword is literally the only melee option that make proper use of your dual scaling and.. it kinda stinks since the nerf.

Also, this Game has a Big problem with holy damage, i know there is a lot a sacred stuff in the world, but almost every main bossfights has really high holy resistences, and a lot of side bossfight as well, only bubbles with the long horn is worth for holy damage, and still, is a pretty late endgame weapon ( i considerate that the midgame ends when you go to the snowy areas )

I tried to do a run basically only using the sword of night and flame. Gave up pretty quickly, I feel like with just a little bit more scaling with the ash of war, it would be great, but for now, I believe it's just an option you could use, but'll probs skip over cause there are more op options, and more fun options

That’s so wild, on release this weapon could easily carry you through the entire game, and you got it super early if you went the right route. Still seems powerful though, just more balanced considering location

@@cwhip2432 yea, it is still powerful, and it can carry you through the game, it's just I don't find it fun, and the only other option is that it's op, which it isn't for pve nor pvp atm. It's still a good option, I just feel like I'd rather run into the room with a giant sword, than one that takes a leak on the boss

It is great for my 55 faith build bc my buddy runs twin antspurs and can rush someone down, I can cover him well or fire wall his guy while he's busy dodging, last I saw it's doing 800-1200 damage. It's a great team play weapon, dual wielded with something like a sacred infused straight sword it packs a punch and offers diversity. Not so great in 1v1 but.. it's still a fun time, in my opinion

I don't like this sword. I wanted to. I wasted upgrade material on it. It's slow casting with flame and rarely hits the target with magic. Physical damage is disappointing as well. Now I have to find a working weapon to level so I can beat Rennala. Then I can respec for an actually worthwhile weapon. I am sad the sword of night and flame was such a fail. It has a name that seems legendary. Even if the game makers restored it to its glory, I would not revisit this one. Its reputation has already been destroyed in my eyes.

With, this I couldnt even oneshot a boss. Plus, I had 80 int, 80 faith, 80 dex, with all this buff, I just did 6423 dmg with the fire, and the magic did 6835 dmg, which, before the nerf, with all of these buffes, the fire did 8623 dmg, the magic did almost nine thousand dmg.

My guy, straight swords are the the most op weapons (along with curved swords). They dish out good damage without buffs, and are too fast to get punished with, in pve and pvp.
