How to Use Wave of Gold

Multiple Waves Farming

While the FP cost for this skill is really high, if paired with a weapon that gives back FP such as the Sword of Milos, the player can actually get all the FP back by killing several enemies with one cast.

For instance, this combination is very effective on the second generation Albinaurics found near the Palace Approach Ledge-Road Site of Grace.

Very Wide AoE Catches PvP Players Off Guard

The width of the wave is very wide, which catches players in PvP who encounter it for the first time off guard. The damage is enough to one-shot many players with low Vigor if they are caught in the wave.

However, the simple solution in order to avoid the wave is to jump over it.
