Ash of War: Spinning Strikes

Spinning Strikes turns your polearm into a whirl of continuous spinning attacks. Hold the button to keep spinning, then finish with a normal or strong attack. While spinning, it also knocks away projectiles like arrows.

Where to find it

A guaranteed drop from Castellan Edgar, either at Castle Morne on the Weeping Peninsula or when he later invades you near the Revenger’s Shack in Liurnia of the Lakes.

Once you own it, Smithing Master Hewg can duplicate it in exchange for Lost Ashes of War.
