Fiend Saws Location in the Village of Lu

How Fiend Saws Build Fiend-Aura Erosion

Each Fiend Saws hit builds Fiend-Aura Erosion, and when the gauge fills the effect erupts and erodes the enemy’s HP. The Fextralife wiki describes it as depleting enemy HP when the gauge fills, and PBZ.gg describes the eruption as damaging the enemy’s health. The gauge is the part of the weapon’s attack description to watch.
