The Pest Threads is an incantation in Elden Ring, from the Servants of Rot school. It is picked up mid-game, in Caelid.
Pest Threads is an incantation of the servants of rot, the pale pests who crawl through lands afflicted by scarlet rot as the abandoned children of the goddess. It launches clusters of sticky threads forward that pierce through enemies with strong tracking, hitting small foes a handful of times and large ones dozens of times. Because the threads damage every part of a large boss they pass through, it can deal extremely high damage to huge enemies such as dragons, the Fire Giant and Placidusax, even without much optimization. It does not trigger multi-hit boosts such as the Winged Sword Insignia or Millicent's Prosthesis. It suits faith builds hunting large bosses and dragons.
Effect
Launches clusters of sticky threads forward that pierce through enemies and can loop back to strike large foes again. Each cast costs 19 FP and 29 stamina and takes up one memory slot.
