Please for GOD SAKE FIX the Arcane Scaling.

[zhangleon0520]

Three patches now and it is still broken. Half of the game's most powerful arcane scaling weapons are just useless right now. Please don't tell me this is intended... If it is, this "intended" scaling is probably the dumbest bull crap ever in a Souls game.

[Vex]

Fromsoft, please fix.

Yeah you have no idea what you are talking about. It is clearly bugged. Take Marais Executioner's Sword for example it scales with Str(C) Dex(E) Arc(D) but it doesn't get any damage any of those. Its damage is a static 94 Physical and 61 magic.

Unless you actually think it isn't a bug that a Greatsword does less damage than a dagger...

Some of the Arc weapons definitely aren't bugged, so it might be an issue with that item specifically? Take for example the Reduvia or the Thrusting sword (whatever it was called); both scale with Arc and get a bleed effect. Both get a HUGE increase in bleed proc, and a significant amount of additional damage when raising Arc to the soft cap.

The sword for example goes from 31 buildup to 81. That's an immense upgrade.

It's any weapon that is arc scaling and has split damage types that are broken.

[DUKE NUKEM]

it's not the scaling, it's that damage from odd weapon categories is counted twice vs armor.

this was broken in ds3 also....

You clearly don't know what the issue is. If you look at ANY Arc scaling weapon that has split damage types, you will see, that the weapon doesn't recieve ANY scaling bonus at all from Arc, Dex, Str, or whatever else it happens to scale with. There is no scaling bonus being applied. That is what the bug is about.

Hey everyone! OP thinks that you should put a lot of levels into LUCK [arcane].

Let's all point and laugh and the Souls NOOB!

Sounds like you are the noob. Blue Blood Sword builds were absolutely a thing in Demon's Souls, for example.

I can confirm this is not true. I have 2 weapons that have Arc scaling and both of them scale. Both of them scale appropriately too. Most recent example I used is the thrusting sword with bleed; it has 500+ damage for me (and hits like it too) while the base damage is only 200 something. Arc also altered its bleed proc effect.

This seems to affect either some clients or just some weapons.

If the weapon only does pure Physical damage, then it supposedly works, yes, but not with split damage types like one that does both Physical and Fire and has Arcane scaling (not sure if the passive Bleed effect is also a requirement that breaks scaling).

Second this. The issue is with split damage arcane weapons. Just go get a rivers of blood and Eleanor’s poleblade and you will se the broken scaling

[ShinoAishi]

yup im still using both eleanor's and rivers of blood and i tend to do far less damage with them at +9 than i do with my un upgraded uchikatana

[Snobby Hobo]

Trying to figure out exactly where it goes wrong with this annoying bug, but it does seem that applying scaling through Ashes of War just breaks the weapon. Not sure if there are other problems at play too, but some of the naturally Arc scaling weapons do seem to work.

I haven’t found one yet, what’s broken about it?

Rivers of Blood, Eleanor's Poleblade and a few others don't get any scaling in their damage despite having D scaling in dex and E scaling in Str... it is broken.

also bloddflame weapons damage decreases the more arcane you have for some reason.

[ShinoAishi]

regalia of eochid seems to be bugged as well along with the marais executioner sword

yeah, every one of the split damage arcane scaling weapons are broken sadly…

Except luck was a great stat in DS3 and didn't exist before that though? You could run basically any weapon a quality build could with hollow infusion.
