How to use Dragonwound Grease in Elden Ring
Dragonwound Grease can be used as a consumable by applying it to a weapon in your hand. However, some special weapons can’t be buffed with any grease. If you can’t apply it to a weapon, double-check whether it allows it.
Dragonwound Grease lasts for 60 seconds, and it deals 30% more damage against Dragons and Wyrms, including Magma Wyrm. It also deals 20% more damage against Ancient Dragons. However, Dragonwound Grease doesn’t do extra damage against Placidusax for some reason.
