  • This Ash of War can be applied to any melee weapon, except for whips and colossal swords.

How to Get The Ash of War: Flaming Strike

The Flaming Strike skill comes from the Ash of War: Flaming Strike, which is a drop from a Teardrop Scarab in the graveyard near the Redmane Castle.

To reach it, you must first head to the Impassable Greatbridge Site of Grace, the nearest to Redmane Castle. From there, cross the bridge and follow the beaten path that leads to the main gate. Note that this place is flooded with enemies.

As you reach the gate, turn to your right and start going along the castle. Do that until you find a big wooden platform and drop on it. Then, jump to the zone below that platform and keep going in the same direction, southeast, until you manage to find a small graveyard, where you'll find the Teardrop Scarab you are looking for.

The exact location of this Teardrop Scarab is marked on the map below:
