Weapon Skill: Quickstep
This weapon can be infused with Ashes of War.
Can be buffed by Magic or Consumables
Erdsteel Dagger can be upgraded by using Smithing Stones
This weapon has a unique R2 chain attack shared with the Black Knife, Blade of Calling, and Fire Knight's Shortsword that performs quick double slashes.
Doubling up on the Faith scaling of this weapon with the Sacred or Flame Art affinity will yield the most damage for this weapon on a Faith build. This will also outperform using a non-elemental infusion with Faith scaling buffs such as Black Flame Blade or Order's Blade at the same level of Faith.
With no affinity, the faith scaling contributes to the physical damage of the weapon along with its dex and strength scaling. If the weapon is given a faith scaling affinity, the faith scaling will contribute to both the physical and elemental damage of the weapon.
Sell Value: 200
