The Torchpole is a Spear in Elden Ring. Players can grab it early, in Stormveil Castle.

The Torchpole is a torch fastened to a long pole, carried by soldiers on watch; it lights up dark areas but cannot be raised overhead like a hand torch. It has a small chance to drop from the Exile Soldiers who carry it in the courtyards and gatehouse of Stormveil Castle. It handles as a spear with long thrusting reach, and every hit adds fire damage on top of physical, which makes it effective against foes with low fire resistance. Charge Forth sends the wielder dashing forward into a powerful thrust that knocks enemies down and can break a low-stamina guard. It suits a balanced Strength and Dexterity character who wants a light source and fire damage at spear range.

Skill

Charge Forth costs 16 FP. The wielder lowers the weapon to the hip and charges forward, carrying the momentum into a powerful piercing thrust. Holding the button extends the charge to cover more ground before the thrust lands. Only the final thrust can be parried, and the long reach makes it a fast way to close distance on a distant target.

"Quickly charge forward with the armament at the hip, carrying the momentum into a thrust. Hold to cover a greater distance."

Suggested Build

Played as a fire-dealing spear that keeps foes at range with thrusts, opening with Charge Forth to close distance and knock enemies down. Two can be power-stanced for more fire hits.

Stats	Strength 55 and Dexterity 55, Vigor 40, Endurance 24, Mind 10 to 15 (14 Strength and 15 Dexterity to wield it)
Affinity	Cannot be infused; it keeps its own scaling.
Talismans	Fire Scorpion Charm, Starscourge Heirloom, Prosthesis-Wearer Heirloom
Pairs With	Torchpole

Notes

"Torch fastened to a long pole. Lights up dark areas, but cannot be raised overhead. Used by soldiers on watch, its attacks set foes aflame."
