The Ash of War: Double Slash is an Ash of War in Elden Ring that grants the Keen affinity and the Double Slash skill. It is a mid-game find in Caelid.
Double Slash drops into a low stance and performs an advancing crossing slash, and repeated inputs allow up to two follow-ups. The second input spins into three more slashes, and the third finishes with a heavy overhead strike, for six hits in total. Each hit carries the weapon's own damage type and any status from buffs or the weapon. It suits Dexterity builds using fast, long swords that want a flexible combo with strong damage.

Skill
Use the first input as a quick poke and commit to the full chain only when the enemy is staggered or stuck in a long recovery. The full combo drains a lot of stamina, so rolling out after the first input is often the safer choice. It pairs very well with weapon buffs such as Bloodflame Blade, but every slash can be parried.
