Ash of War: Quickstep

Quickstep grants the Keen affinity and replaces your weapon skill with a fast sidestep that lets you circle around a locked-on enemy.

It fits all melee armaments and suits nimble, Dexterity-leaning players who like to stay mobile and punish from the flank.

Where to find it

Sold once by Bernahl for 800 Runes, either at the Warmaster’s Shack in Stormhill or later in the drawing room of Volcano Manor.

If Bernahl dies before you buy it, give Bernahl’s Bell Bearing to the Twin Maiden Husks and buy it from them for the same price.

Once you own it, you can duplicate it with Smithing Master Hewg using Lost Ashes of War.

Item description & lore

A technique valued by those who rely on cunning and light feet rather than brute force.

Notes & tips
