Serrated weapons are a subgroup of the regular weapons in Bloodborne. They deal an additional 20% damage against heavily transformed victims of the beastly scourge, such as the full werewolves and any beastly boss. Many weapons only deal serrated damage in one form or the other, with the exception of the Saw Spear. The other type of "hidden" damage comes from "Righteous Weapons"
Weapon forms that count as serrated:
- Saw Cleaver in its default state
- Threaded Cane in its transformed state
- Saw Spear in both states
- Whirligig Saw in its transformed state
- Beast Cutter in both states
Enemies that are weak to serrated damage
- Scourge Beast
- Father Gascoigne (in his beast form)
- Vicar Amelia
- Cleric Beast
- Blood-Starved Beast
- Darkbeast Paarl
- Watchdog of the Old Lords
- Beast-Possessed Soul
- Bloodletting Beast
- Abhorrent Beast
- Loran Silverbeast
- Loran Darkbeast

Using and abusing this on top of fire damage is how you absolutely dominate beast enemies and bosses. Their healthbars melt so fast. Add in beast blood and it's even faster.

Should also be considered that Ludwig the Accursed on his First Phase ( Horse on all-fours ) applies the Serrated Bonuses , and also Laurence the first Vicar since he's a Fiery Cleric Beast technically... So that should be helpful , Plus the Church Pick is the only Weapon in Bloodborne that has both Righteous & Serrated Bonues within both Forms aswell as 20% Bonus Damage.

Does the damage bonus still work if you use an elemental gem on the weapon?

So the dlc weapons are included but not the bosses? Really? It's not even that complicated. It's just first phase Ludwig and Laurence. It would take like 2 seconds to edit.

Crazy how many people still misunderstand this. Serrated bonus works against any beast. Righteous only works on enemies of the church which is mainly just vileblood creatures.
Does the Church Pick really count as serrated AND righteous?

I don’t think it does additional +20% because I tried several times who are weak against this weapon

Do these special damage types remain for weapons that are converted to Arcan/Fire/Bolt?

Is it just me or is the righteous modifier entirely useless? According to the wiki page it only does bonus damage to four different enemies in the game. Three of which are in Cainhurst Castle, and one of which is a rare chalice dungeon.

Ludwig's a beast right? then serrated weapons should deal more damage to him aswell if im not wrong

Just to clear this up, there are two groups of weapons in Bloodborne. Serrated, which is based off the design of the weapon and is shown on this list, and Righteous, which is basically everything else. Some bosses are weaker to one group than the other, giving a +30% buff to that weapon. The sole exception to this rule is the threaded cane, which has both Righteous and Serration damage, based upon its transformation. Whip is serration, cane is righteous,

I had never heard of this until recently. I read there is another church/holy/righteous subgroup. Are there other weapon subgroups? Why is there no 'main page' for weapon subgroups, unless this is the only one?

This wiki is really inconsistent the righteous says the percentage of the damage while serrated
