Lightning Urn is a Projectile in Dark Souls 3.

Lightning Urn


Dragon-hunting tool used by Lothric knights.
Explodes upon contact, inflicting lightning damage.

The knights of Lothric have since tamed dragons, but were once hunters of dragons themselves.

This explains their special hunting gear, and why they worshipped the sun.

      Lightning urn, does larger radius on direct hit and larger radius in water. Just a little trivia that should be in the trivia.

        Anyone worried about keeping Greirat alive through his Irithyll trip -- leave either Curserot or Old Demon King for now, and then make 100% certain that you've given Siegward his armor (you can check if Siegward is in the soup kitchen in Irithyll) OR you told Patches in Firelink that Greirat went to Irithyll and then made sure Patches has left, now kill either of the optional bosses and Greirat'll be back immediately. You can kill Pontiff as well, go anywhere near Irithyll Dungeon until Greirat is back. That's then only convoluted part of his questline, if he survives Irithyll you're guaranteed to get his ashes from Grand Archives.

          they should’ve brought back witching urns and maybe added in a dark damage equivalent just for completions sake, I mean the skeletons in the catacombs of carthus throw affinity urns at you and I would’ve loved to have those as an item

                  After running miracle builds, pyromancer builds, infusion builds, and everything else that incorporates some amount of faith, I've concluded that these stupid ass urns are the best offensive miracle in the game.

                    Geriat has a story line and depending on when you obtain his ashes wI'll determine how many lightning urn you can purchase from giving his ashes to the hand maiden. You have to complete his story line to get infinite lightning urn buying capabilities. If you don't you can only buy 6.

                      I have a low level build without much str/dex investment. Would these be better damage than black firebombs?

                        It should be noted that Greirat only sells 6, and the Handmaid sells unlimited after giving her his ashes after his Lothric Castle pillage.

                          The shrine maiden can sell an unlimited stock lightning urns after obtaining Greirat's ashes from Lothric's castle.

                            I have seen numerous people use these in the Pontiff PvP arena as though they could be bought in unlimited amounts, but as far as I know, Greirat never has these available in unlimited amounts... Anyone know?

                              6 lightning urns can also be found near the Lothric Castle, Dragon Barracks bonfire, in the area where the dragons spew fire.
