Description
A skeletal blacksmith residing in the Catacombs. Specialized in fire enchantments.
Location
The Catacombs
At the end of the spiral staircase near the fourth Necromancer (who's guarding a switch), look below. You'll see an item glow, a Green Titanite Shard, on a corpse below. Drop down to it (don't roll, as you may overshoot and slip further down below and the fall damage might kill you). From the corpse, drop down to the broken wooden plank below, then enter the hole. After the cutscene, you can access Vamos' room from the Skeleton Wheel area.
In the Remastered version, a new bonfire has been added to the area, but it isn't recommended to rest at it early into the game, as it'll make the walk back to Firelink Shrine considerably more difficult.
Use
- Can reinforce weapons using the appropriate Titanite.
- Can ascend +5 Normal weapons to Fire weapons using Green Titanite shard.
- Can ascend +5 Fire weapons to +6 Fire weapons if given a Large Flame Ember, found in the Demon Ruins, between the bonfire and Demon Firesage boss room.
- Can ascend +5 Fire weapons to Chaos weapons if given a Chaos Flame Ember, found in the Demon Ruins, on the lava, guarded by many Taurus Demons.
- Can repair any1 damaged equipment for souls. Cost depends on the equipment's soul-cost-per-durability ratio and the amount of durability repaired.
- Opens another shortcut to the Skeleton Wheel area after his cutscene.
