### Notes
---
- Most weapons and shields can be infused. Infusion is a one time process that will consume one stone of the element desired.
---
### Infusion Mechanics
---
The following may not work with boss weapons.
- **Weapon with only physical damage:** magic, fire, electric and dark paths will lower the physical damage by 30% and give that value to the chosen elemental damage independently of the weapons level. For example, a Greatsword +1 with 220 physical damage will result in 154 in both physical and elemental damage (220 \* 0.7 = 154). A Greatsword +10, with 420 physical damage this time, would result in 294 in both damage types (420 \* 0.7 = 294).
- **Weapon with both physical and elemental damage:**
- **Same elemental path:** If a weapon that already has elemental damage is infused with the same type, the physical damage will be lowered by 5% and the the elemental damage will be increased by 44%. This is because, similar to the below, it lowers the damage by 10% but also increases it by 60%. Math: 0.9 \* 1.6 = 1.44
- **Different elemental path:** If a weapon that already has elemental damage is infused with a different type, both the elemental and physical damage will be lowered by 10% and the new one will be the 60% of the first elemental damage type.

### Notes
---
- Most weapons can be infused. Infusion is a one time process that will consume one stone of the element desired.
- Cuts base damage in half for all damage types. Removes normal scaling for all damage types, but physical damage gains the special scaling explained below.
- Crossbows, however, lose 85% of their base damage when Mundane infused.
- As of Calibration 1.11, Daggers lose approximately 25% of standard Mundane scaling (depends on the dagger). A level 20, Mundane infused Dagger gives a level bonus of 127(74.7% of 170) , instead of 170. A level 99, Mundane infused Dagger gives a level bonus of 187(74.7% of 250) , instead of 250. Several daggers have different adjustments. For example the Shadow Dagger only loses 20% of the standard Mundane scaling. And the Bandit's Knife loses more than 25%, as the bonus is spread between damage and bleed.
- Bonus physical damage is a flat 50 added to the scaling factor of the lowest stat (i.e. (50+(6\*4))=50+24=74).
- For weapons with native elemental damage, the mundane infusion will lower the base elemental damage and the elemental damage scaling. It will not add any additional bonus elemental damage that scales off the lowest stat.
- Mundane infusion is almost always worse in terms of pure damage than the standard path, even at very high levels, because mundane scaling doesn't offset the loss of damage from halving base damage, losing normal scaling and the access to Flynn's Ring (as you go over 14 vitality). It also halves damage from weapon buffs, as they scale with base damage only.

- They can be farmed by using Bonfire Ascetics at the bonfire in Dragon Aerie. The tricky part is killing the dragons that guard all the Crystal Lizards. Your first run should be dedicated to killing the dragons, preferably with magic or some sort of ranged attack, then run through again killing all of the Lizards and getting all of their loot. You get at least five Petrified Dragon Bones every run along with some other useful materials like Twinkling Titanite.
- Four of the Crystal Lizards around the area drop a Bone: three near the first dragon, one near the second.
- One is on the ground near the second dragon, see above.
- The dragons have a chance to drop them, while in SoTFS, one of the dragons is guaranteed to drop one.
- (SoTFS) The Guardian Dragons do not wake up unless you attack them, break eggs near them, or get too close while wearing the Moon Butterfly Set. Enemies breaking eggs does not seem to wake them (for example, a Crystal Lizard broke some while running away and the dragon remained sleeping). If you are careful you can kill the Crystal Lizards without waking the dragons. One of the dragons will drop one, and they can all be sniped from a safe location, so it might make sense just to kill them anyway.
- Another way to get them early in the game is to burn Ascetics at the Shaded Ruins bonfire and go grab the one Dragon Bone in the chest near the bonfire. The second one is obtained by killing the Giant Basilisk, you might need to take out some of the Lion Clan Warriors. Also, there are three Twinkling Titanite you might want to pick up in the cave where you found Ornifex.
- The three in the wooden chest in Dragon's Sanctum are perfect for farming.
- Use a Bonfire Ascetic on the Tower of Prayer bonfire in Shulva, Sanctum City.(not working in new patch)
- You can pick up a respawning Ascetic, to replace your used one, in the hall with ambushing Sanctum Soldiers, inside a trapped wooden chest.
- Go pillage the bone chest. Rinse and repeat.
- The chest also contains three Twinkling Titanite.
- Another very, very quick way to get some Bones is to go to the Lair of the Imperfect bonfire in Dragon's Sanctum and use Ascetics after you pick up the three by the entrance to the area. You can quickly run back and forth from the bonfire to the Petrified Dragon Bones, getting three at a time. The Imperfect enemies walking around also have a chance to drop Petrified Dragon Bones, Dragon Scales and Titanite Slabs.
- Bell Keeper's Covenant has a low chance of drop of either Titanite Slab, Petrified Dragon Bone, or Twinkling Titanite.

### In-Game Description
---
*An altered state of titanite.
Use to imbue weapons with poison,
or to provide poison reduction to shields.*
*Sorcerers at the Melfian Magic Academy
once attempted to imbue titanite with
various elements, but are said to have failed.*
*Someone must have succeeded, though;
what else would explain this stone?*
### Use
---
Used to infuse weapons and shields with Poison.
The upgrade is performed via infusion by the blacksmith Steady Hand McDuff. Weapons infused with Poison gain Poison Damage while lowering base damage and current scaling. Shields gain Poison resistance while lowering other resistances. The Dull Ember is required to perform infusions.
### Availability

| Stone Trader Chloanne | 7,000 souls | **3** after Undead Crypt |
#### Enemy drops:
---
- Dropped by Basilisks.
- Dropped by Undead Supplicants immediately after the final bonfire in Shrine of Amana.
- Dropped by Razorback Nightcrawlers in Black Gulch.
- Dropped by Sanctum Soldiers in Shulva, Sanctum City and nearby areas.
#### Other sources:
---
- One can be found just before the fog gate of Mytha, the Baneful Queen in Earthen Peak.
- In a chest in Harvest Valley just after the second bonfire. Climb down the ladder into the poison mist, run to the opposite end and climb up the other ladder.
- Treasure in Shulva, Sanctum City, near one of the first lance-wielding Sanctum Soldiers.
- Possible to receive when trading with Dyna and Tillo in Things Betwixt.
### Notes
---
- Most weapons and shields can be infused. Infusion is a one time process that will consume one stone of the element desired.
---
### Infusion Mechanics
---
The following may not work with boss weapons.
- **Weapon with only physical damage:** magic, fire, electric and dark paths will lower the physical damage by 30% and give that value to the chosen elemental damage independently of the weapons level. For example, a Greatsword +1 with 220 physical damage will result in 154 in both physical and elemental damage (220 \* 0.7 = 154). A Greatsword +10, with 420 physical damage this time, would result in 294 in both damage types (420 \* 0.7 = 294).
- **Weapon with both physical and elemental damage:**
- **Same elemental path:** If a weapon that already has elemental damage is infused with the same type, the physical damage will be lowered by 5% and the the elemental damage will be increased by 44%. This is because, similar to the below, it lowers the damage by 10% but also increases it by 60%. Math: 0.9 \* 1.6 = 1.44
- **Different elemental path:** If a weapon that already has elemental damage is infused with a different type, both the elemental and physical damage will be lowered by 10% and the new one will be the 60% of the first elemental damage type.
### In-Game Description
---
*An altered state of titanite.
Changes weapon class to Raw.
Cannot be used on shields.
This unusually hard titanite raises a
weapon's physical attack power,
but lowers strength and dexterity bonuses.*
### Use
---
Used to infuse weapons with Raw. This reduces stat scaling but increases weapon base damage. Cannot be used on shields.
The upgrade is performed via infusion by the blacksmith Steady Hand McDuff. Weapons infused with Raw gain a large increase to base weapon damage while lowering stat scaling. The Dull Ember is required to perform infusions.

### Farming Guide
---
- The Lindelt Clerics and Amana Shrine Maidens in the Shrine of Amana have a decent drop rate for Twinkling Titanite.
- The two pieces of Twinkling Titanite near the Place Unbeknownst bonfire in Forest of Fallen Giants are easy to farm with Bonfire Ascetics. The Giant Lord has to be killed every time.(does NOT work in SOTFS, item does not respawn with use of ascetic)
- Farming the Crystal Lizards in Dragon Aerie, together with killing and looting the three dragons, is worth at least six Twinkling Titanite each run. Burn a Bonfire Ascetic at the Dragon Aerie bonfire to reset the spawns and redo the run.
- The wooden chest in Dragon Shrine can be farmed with Ascetics for three Twinkling Titanite per run. The Ancient Dragon has to be killed if he is aggressive.
- The three in the wooden chest in Dragon's Sanctum are perfect for farming.
- Use a Bonfire Ascetic on the Tower of Prayer bonfire in Shulva, Sanctum City.
- You can pick up a respawning Ascetic, to replace your used one, in the hall with ambushing Sanctum Soldiers, inside a trapped wooden chest. (This is changed in Sotfs it now contains 3 Dried roots)
- Go pillage the Titanite chest. Rinse and repeat.
- The chest also contains three Petrified Dragon Bones.
- (Believed to be patched, when using bonfire ascetic you are prompted with message "First, defeat the lord of this quarter…")
- (Not patched; Elana The Squalid Queen needs to be defeated first.)
