Veteran's Prosthesis is a Fist in Elden Ring. It is a late-game find.

The Veteran's Prosthesis is a bladed prosthetic leg wreathed in lightning and attached to the fist, belonging to Commander Niall, veteran of Castle Sol, who led the knights he freed as an army of no nation. It drops from Commander Niall at Castle Sol in the Mountaintops of the Giants. It is a paired fist that deals lightning damage alongside physical and scales with Strength and Dexterity. Its unique skill, Storm Kick, drives the blade into the ground to raise a storm, and a strong attack follows with a lightning jumping attack that breaks poise. It suits a Strength or quality character who wants lightning damage against dragons and armored foes.

How to Get Veteran's Prosthesis Guide

Skill

Storm Kick costs 10 / 15 FP. The wielder drives the prosthetic leg blade into the ground to release a storm around the wielder. A strong attack follow-up charges the blade with lightning for a leaping plunge that sends out an electric shockwave on landing. The attacks mix physical and lightning damage, the Enraged Divine Beast boosts them, and they can be parried. No other weapon carries this skill, and it cannot be replaced.

"Thrust the prosthetic leg blade into the ground, creating a storm. Follow up with a strong attack to perform a lightning-infused jumping attack."

Suggested Build

Open with Storm Kick to stagger enemies with its storm, then follow with the lightning jumping attack.

Stats Strength 55, Dexterity 55, Vigor 40, Endurance 24, Mind 10
Affinity Cannot be infused; it keeps its own scaling.
Talismans Lightning Scorpion Charm, Claw Talisman, Starscourge Heirloom

Notes

"Bladed prosthetic leg enwreathed with the power of lightning, instead attached to the fist. Commander Niall, veteran of Castle Sol, offered this prosthesis in exchange for the lives of the defeated knights held prisoner. He went on to lead these men as an army of no nation."
