Upgrade Materials

Faded Ember (Normal +10)
Description:

''Dim ember of a once-brilliant flame, presumably stoked by Sen for Lord Gwyn's conquests. Entrust only to a blacksmith skilled in her art.''

Enough heat remains to further reinforce weak standard weapons or transform them into raw weapons.

Location:

At the top of Sen's Forge where previously fought Undead Prince Ricard was, behind the relocated bonfire.

Sen's Ember (Normal +15)
Description:

Blazing ember of Sen's Great Inferno, which consumed its creator and turned much of her forge to slag.

Sen may be gone, but the blacksmiths of Lordran still spread the flames of her last fire in the hope that a gifted blacksmith may one day tame it, and breathe life into stone as she did.

Location:

Sold by Hawkeye Gough for 30,000 souls in the Oolacile Township. Get the Crest Key from behind the second illusory wall, in the main building after the large room with two casters (requires Sunlight Maggot, Cast Light or Skull Lantern) then go to the top of the cathedral to unlock the door.

Blessed Ember +5
Location:

Just after the Profaned Semblance where Andre of Astora was.

Profane/Hallowed Ember +10
Profane description:

''Dark ember of an inside-out flame, imbued by Velka with the true essence of Sen's soul. The flame reacts to one's faith, intelligence, and humanity, and easily cuts through the veneer of gods' armor.''

''Sen's irreverent pursuits cost the goddess her family, her name, and eventually--perhaps--her sanity, but she gained one companion in the Goddess of sin. Entrust their forbidden fire only to the hammer of a steadfast ally.''

Hallowed description:

''Sacred white ember infused with the remains of Sen's discarded soul. Tradition dictates that a deity's soul-fire must be handled only by a truly reverent blacksmith.''

''This ember gleams with the pure light of the Goddess of the Forge. Why, then, does it feel so cold...?''

Location:

Painted World annex key area. Which ember is acquired is dependent upon having the pact with velka from the crow (NOT CONFIRMED: ACQUIRED PROFANE EMBER BOTH WITH AND WITHOUT VELKA'S PACT).

Failed theory: I thought it was dependent on the number of Game Cycles (Hallowed being for every uneven playthroughs), but I got Profane twice in a row.

Other failed theory: I also thought it was random by the moment you pick it up, but 5 times in a row with backups, it was the Hallowed Ember.

Oolacile Ember
Description:

Beautiful ember passed down through the royal family of Oolacile.

The lowest sorcerers of Oolacile can smelt a minor enchantment into a blade, but only a talented mage smith can temper this volatile flame.

Location:

Oolacile cathedral after artorias. At the top of the cathedral cut the rope holding the body

Runic Ember
Description:

''Hypnotic blue ember ensconced in an archstone vessel. The flame's kaleidoscopic patterns are reminiscent of the etched runes scattered throughout Lordran.''

Hammering a blade into tune with rune-song is a dangerous art, forbidden in both Oolacile and Vinheim, but the Gods were known to make exceptions in older times.

Location:

Ash Lake near the hydra starting location, back in a corner behind the archtree.

Effect:

+6-10 enchanted infusion like normal. Also allows use of the Rune items. Requires a +5 magic weapon/shield.

Rendain's/Fire Ember +10
Location:

In drained Dead City of Londo behind illusory wall (previously titanite chunk)

Chthonic Spark
Trade Chthonic Spark to Vamos. (Warning: Will permanently lose ability to warp.)

Effect:

Replaces the chaos infusion from the base game (will not scale with humanity), but swings cost few HP similar to the chaos blade.

Crystal Ember

The end of the snaky invisible path in crystal caves
