The Madding Hand is a Fist in Elden Ring.
When to Use It
Shadow of the Erdtree. It is found around Abyssal Woods in the expansion, which opens only once Starscourge Radahn and Mohg, Lord of Blood are beaten.
Upgrades
It takes Somber Smithing Stones rather than the common kind, one per level up to +10, and it keeps its own skill for good: no Ash of War will replace it and no affinity will re-cut its scaling.
Skill
Madding Spear-Hand Strike costs 13 FP. Makes hand into the shape of a spear before unleashing a plunging stab that penetrates the body of the enemy. Afflicts foe with a large dose of madness. It belongs to this weapon alone: no Ash of War will move it onto anything else, and nothing will replace it here.
Build
Its scaling runs Str at D, Dex at E, Int at E and Fai at E, so Str is the stat worth levelling, and you need Str 8, Dex 8, Int 13 and Fai 20 before you can lift it. Because the skill is its own, the build has to come to the weapon rather than the other way round. It also causes madness buildup (55) on its own, with no infusion needed.
Notes
A glove stitched together from the flayed skin of the victims of a butcherous bloodbath. Afflicts target with madness. Raises attack power when madness is triggered in the vicinity. Forged of an unyielding, black impulse toward revenge fostered in those who were hunted down as heretics by their own brethren, these are the weapons of the utterly downtrodden.
