📋 About This Mod
Some skills are interesting, but I want to use them with other weapons. This mod added two unique ash of war.
You can craft the Waterfowl Dance with five Lost ashes of War after defeating Malenia. The Waterfowl Dance is usable on Small and medium Swords(Twinblades excepted). The icon is same as Sword Dance.
You can craft the Dynast's Finesse with five Lost ashes of War after defeating Sanguine Noble(Writheblood Ruins). The Dynast's Finesse is usable on swords capable of thrusting (colossal weapons excepted). The icon is same as Impaling Thrust.
You can craft them wtih five lost ashes of war after getting one ash of war.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Unlocks iconic boss skills for any weapon—huge for build experimentation.
- Small and focused, does exactly what it says without bloat.
- Recently updated (Aug 2025), so likely compatible with current game version.
⚠️ Cons
- Only 25 endorsements—niche appeal, might have undiscovered bugs.
- No detailed instructions or compatibility notes from the author.
- Limited to two skills; if you want more variety, look elsewhere.
For Elden Ring players who want to put Waterfowl Dance on a greatsword or Dynast's Finesse on a katana. If you're tired of the default weapon skills and want to break the meta, this is for you. Skip if you prefer vanilla balance or need more than two new skills.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Back up your save before installing, just in case the mod affects game balance.
- Test the new ashes on a low-level weapon first to see how they scale.
- If you're on PC, make sure to launch the game with the mod enabled via your mod manager.
