Notes[]
- Ordovis's Greatsword cannot be buffed or infused.
- Benefits mostly from Strength, with Dexterity offering almost no returns, and Faith providing mediocre amounts of Holy damage. This is especially true because the skill only scales with the weapon's Attack Power, rather than a secondary Attribute, as is usually the case.
- As the skill is chargeable, the Godfrey Icon is useful for those who wish to maximize its increased damage and take advantage of the extra poise.
- Both the skill and the weapon deal primarily Physical damage.
Trivia[]
