HORRAAAAAAY
Can’t wait for the level 100 version of this! I have a similar build but adding the dagger/spells should make things a bit better.
Loved my run as mage rly fun and strong
Can you please make a holy assassin build (think Penitent Damned if you're familiar w The Shadow Campaigns)?
I think a really sick faith/dex build using bloodhound step, blood loss and incantations could work wonderfully. I'd personally want to use lightning spells too but that's just me.
I'll do it myself, but there's sooo much I don't know about this game and you'd do a much better job putting a build together!
i have a talisman which increases my intellect by +5 i forgot the name
FYI – Royal Knight’s Resolve buffs by 80% for 15 FP vs Determination’s 60% for 10 FP. Not sure which is more efficient but just info…
Lol i don’t think im using the right password i haven’t seen an single summoning sign at the last boss door
Can you please make a spear or halberd build?
Sorcerer can be a beginners trap. I'd warn new players to learn hand to hand combat first or late game will be tougher
no glintstone shard? I find it super useful. I think its even better than pebble on the magus when up close.
CohhCarnage (Twitch Streamer) Recently showed a video on how equipping a staff in the Off-hand with a "Boost Sorcery" Effect also effects the casting of that type of sorcery in the main hand. So if you are confident with dodging instead of blocking then i reccomend doing that. Instead of using it in the main hand.
sorcery gets so much more badass late game, now im playing a dex/arcane/faith character and i realized how spoiled i was with sorcery lul
Rock sling is pretty broken, you can actually spam this and kill bosses behind a fog gate without popping the gate and starting the fight.
I just get the game its epic
Another tip (I guess): There's a better version of Determination at Mt. Gelmir, inside one of the Imp Rooms in the Manor. If it works in a similar way…
I also use an upgraded carian shield with frost enchant just so I can block while moving and melee without swapping.
I wished from made staff melee attacks more viable and kept the ds3 spell amp weapon art to put caster mages viable for meta.
The determination situation is probably an oversight and it might get patched. It simply doesn't make sense to get that huge % spell damage increase for 10 freaking seconds for the cost of what… 20 FP or something? A worthy mention is the bloodhound step ash of war, which provides you with excellent survivability for those fast boss fights, like blade knife assassins for example
Love the video. I'm still new to dark souls so this is my first. My friend who play the previous games told me (when I choose mage) to buff strength and arcance from the start. Big mistake now from realizing it and trying to figure out what to do
I'm kinda surprised you didn't make a build focused on shields/greatshields, with the guard counter mechanics. I've been running your barbarian builds, but transitioned into Black Iron Tarkus, with a greatshield and greatsword, with most bosses you can just stand your ground and trade hits, or see them bounce off your shield
Mmm from my testing the +5 Int talisman made me do more dmg than the sorcery boosting one even with 60+ Int, maybe after 80 its another story but its a long way to get there..
The fact that i have the same gear and the same attributes expept for dex at 12 and int at 36, as a new player, before watching this video, tells me i'm doing things the right way. Means I'm getting at least decent :')
Been keeping up with your builds for a while. Looking forward to a Faith build like this.
Astrologer's first spell Glintstone Pebble is the ultimate spell of elden ring in PvE. Its damage to fp cost efficiency is the best. Aside from Rocksling, the other spells are too slow and too niche and too mana intensive. Come to think of it, i only use pebble and rocksling for almost of all my fights.
I think basing sorcerer character around using sword of night and flame you negate the fp issue and get the best of both worlds. Smaller weaker enemies you can just use the sword and then using its spell abilities for low fp cost when you attack
The scarab for the determination ash of war isn’t spawning for me. I’ve seen it once and I think the horseman on the bridge crushed it. Any help?
can you use the cerulean crystal tear and the determination buff at the same time ?
Set up is 90 percent of what Ive been using. Its very solid and a lot of the bosses get wrecked easy with mage. Just make sure you send out da boys to keep em distracted and its easy mode for days
As a Spellblade Caster player at the moment, there is another Talisman you can wear, in order to boost your tankiness is using a Talisman called "Dragoncrest Shield Talisman" and this Talisman helps with Physical Damage Negation which means you take less damage against physical damages. When usually you get knocked around with a Greatsword or enemies with a large weapon, they usually one shot you in Mid-Game. So this Talisman helps you to survive those hits so you can plan your next attack.
I’m 154 and I use glintstone icecrag
Glintstone Shard is the exact same damage to fp ratio as Glintstone pebbles, fires twice as fast and takes 1/3 of the stamina per shot. At the cost of about 1 roll worth of range, also the projectile travels at almost double the speed. in 99% of the situation is just a straight up upgrade over glintstone pebbles. Highly recommend using it instead.
Imp Head (Cat) is a great option before Queen's Crescent Crown. It was literally the first piece of gear that dropped for me, so very early game too.
Almost 100 hours in, still throwing Pebbles. Small stone gang represent!
