The Seppuku Ashes of War in Elden Ring will reward players who enjoy some risk. This skill will plunge your weapon into your stomach, drawing on your health bar to increase your damage. This is a reasonable trade, as the skill has a very low activation cost because it takes some health instead. The Seppuku Ashes of War is usable on swords and polearms capable of thrusting attacks.
Seppuku Ashes of War location
To find the Seppuku Ashes of War, players will need to make their way to the Mountaintops of the Giant region. This is a late-game area, and you will need to make your way through the Capital to get there. At the Freezing Lake Site of Grace in the northeast of the area, you can walk out across the lake, making your way to a group of trees on the far side.
Here, you will notice some white footprints running in a circuit around the trees. Stand somewhere on the route, then strike just as the footsteps approach. You will hit the small beetle running around and gain the Seppuku AShes of War.
“Seppuku: A forbidden technique used by swordsmen from the Land of Reeds. Plunge the blade into your stomach to stain it with blood. Increases attack power and improves the ability to inflict blood loss.”
