The Ash of War: Lifesteal Fist is an Ash of War in Elden Ring that grants the Occult affinity and the Lifesteal Fist skill. It becomes available partway through a run, in Caelid.
Lifesteal Fist is a slow, controlled punch with an energy-infused fist that grabs a human-sized foe, renders it unconscious and drains its HP. If the punch connects, the wielder strikes the victim several more times and heals 30% of maximum HP over the grab. The magic part of the damage scales with Arcane, and it deals more damage against other players than most skills. It suits Arcane fist builds that want sustain in fights against humanoid enemies.
Stats
It grants the Occult affinity and a Whetblade can switch it to Standard, Heavy, Keen, Quality, Poison or Blood. The skill costs 14 FP. It fits Fist, Hand-to-Hand Arts, Claw and Beast Claw.
How to Get Ash of War: Lifesteal Fist Guide

Skill
Use it on humanoid enemies that are recovering from an attack, since the punch is slow and only grabs targets of human build. FP is only spent when the punch connects, so a whiff costs nothing but time. It does nothing special against large monsters and bosses that are not humanoid.
