Doesn't hardcap at 60 dex. Between 60 and 71 dex it gains less than 1 AR per level, but beyond 71 it gains 1-2 AR per level all the way up to 99.

This weapon is a whole BEAST in PvE with a tank build. With Iron Flesh and some random twinsword, you can proc this once every three attacks, which is not at all hard to land

By using the weapon art you jump backwards while your opponent rolls backwards after being hit resulting in a graceful AF duel

The Old Wolf of Farron was originally going to be a boss, but at the last second they pulled it out and stuck it here. Hence the wording "bears the soul of the old wolf".

I see now why I always see people with this on their back. Literally three years and over a thousand hours played and I am still learning, what I love about this game.

Fun off-hand weapon/utility item for DEX builds. The WA is good for PvE against jank vertical hitboxes or charging enemies (like Wolf Knight Greatsword, but more defensive) and does very decent damage once you get the combo started. Stacking AR buffs with Pontiff's R Eye/Carthus beacon does indeed melt just about anything with dual weapons. Been using it with Onikiri + Ubadachi, any fast weapon will max out the buff potential in 2-3 combos. Makes a decent surprise roll catcher offhand. Decent weapon on its own, shines as a 13 lbs stacking ring set.

Fortunately for us, youtuber dangitjm is planning a video on this weapon, which might be a useful resource if you're looking to learn more about the Old Wolf's CS's moveset, viable builds, and perhaps even hidden/overlooked mechanics! Personally, I can't wait. owo

How have I not heard about this weapon until now? I've literally never seen it in pvp or in any videos ever. The only reason I found this was from typing old wolf knight by accident. Does it like suck or something?

Incredibly high SL Build found: armor: undead legion pointy hat ,leonhard's garb, undead legion gauntlet, alva leggins . Rings: both pontiff rings, sun princess and highest Havel u have. Right hand: this monster, sharp sellsword twins,pyromancy flame. Left hand: ethereal oak shield ,blessed sellsword twins, sacred Filianore Chime. Spells: carthus beacon,blessed weapon,replenishment. This thing heals u like there's no tomorrow and adapts to almost every situation. Obiovusly a very VERY high soul level is required, but it is very fun and works well.

This weapon is extremely overpowered, I can do well over 1,000 Damage in just 2-3 hits with only about 40 Dex when it's a +5. This results in that someone with 40 Vigor and a full set of Havel armor or Lapp's armor with a Ring of Steel Protection +3 STILL gets decimated by this beast of a weapon.

what's with everyone talking about the exile so much this isn't the exile stop comparing it to it, it is given a large combo to proc the buffs it has and with just that its combo outshines the damage the exile has the exile is so slow and basic its a mediocre weapon that shouldn't have survived this long at the top, combo this sword with the pontiff's eyes have a lot of stamina and stamina regen and then use the carthus beacon or power within and you'll become a damage dealing the demon like you have the satsui no hado from street fighter and your true combo is like the raging demon

The weapon is mediocre by itself, but worn on the back while using a combo heavy weapon (especially if stacked with pontiff rings) makes it insanely good for combo builds.
