Stone torch hammer wielded by gargoyles of the Profaned Capital.
The Profaned Flame, which never goes out, imbues this weapon with a fire attack.
Skill: Kindled Flurry
Anchor weapon in earth and use strong attack to launch successive volleys of fire form the tip of the hammer.

Characteristics[]

Scales best with Strength but the fairly high base fire damage means it works fairly well on a pyromancer (Intelligence/Faith) build with only moderate amounts of Strength.

Trivia[]

  • Because of the fire within its head, it can act like a makeshift torch, albeit one with a more orange glow than the standard tool. Two-handing it and blocking with it is similar to the light level of a raised torch, as well.
