Elden Ring

FromSoftware’s Elden Ring has many exciting mechanics to keep gamers involved for hours, and Ashes of War is one of them. The game is loved for its tough boss battles, and sometimes, regular weapons might not be enough. This is where Ashes of War come in handy. These are special enhancements or artifacts scattered throughout the game world. Not only can they be used to inflict damage on enemies, but also to dodge their attacks.

Ash of War: Storm Stomp Location

Before players can use Ash of War, Storm Stomp, they will need to find it first. For that, go to the Southeastern part of Gatefront Ruins in Limgrave after leaving the game’s tutorial area, Standard Graveyard. Once there, look for a small cave and go downstairs.

Players can expect plenty of action as this area is usually teeming with enemies. After going downstairs, open the door to access a treasure chest, and then open this chest to get Ash of War: Storm Stomp. To use it, players will need to get their hands on Whetstone Knife, which can also be found in the same treasure chest.

How to Use Ash of War: Storm Stomp

After acquiring Ash of War: Storm Stomp, players will need to make their way to a Site of Grace to equip it.
In the menu, navigate to ‘Ashes of War’ and click it.
Now, select a weapon and equip Storm Stomp.

With this Ash of War activated, the Tarnished can slam the ground to create a storm nearby for approximately one second. This deals damage to all enemies in the area, making it a good choice when fighting multiple enemies. It costs six FP, and players can equip it on any weapon. To trigger it, players will need to press and hold the L2/LT buttons on a console, and Shift+left click on a PC.

Players can change to a different Ash of War whenever they want for free. For this purpose, they will need to head to a Site of Grace, select the weapon, and choose an Ash of War they want to use.
