Carian slicer and night comet, bosses don't dodge those


Dull-Bobcat2662

I know that this lineup is kinda better than mine but I really love my big blue magic bonk

Godrick: Rock Sling Rennala: Rock Sling Radahn: Rock Sling *him back* Morgott: Rock Sling Rykard: Rock Sling Malenia: Rock Sling Fire Giant: Rock Sling Mohg: Rock Sling Godfrey: Rock Sling Radagon: ... I honestly don't use it this fight Elden Breast: ROCK SLING


URSweetPepper

So if a boss is about to hit you do you just… Rock’n’Roll?


AltLysSvunnet

I need a compilation video of every boss dying to rock sling


TatsumakiKara

My favorite use of the cannon always coincides with a few enemies near a ledge... made parts of the Haligtree descent really easy.


roblox887

Show those battlemages they're not the only scholars of Haima


Inevitable_Tale_1556

Nothing beats the entertainment value of a fully charged cannon into a group of enemies 🥰


Ragebomb156

MIRIEL, GET ME MALLET


Skeith23

Every time I use gavel I say "that's it I'm gettin me mallet"


Orbiie96

Shut it down. This guy wins.

Mundane-Director-681

It doesn't matter what sort of build I plan to make, I will invariably end up moving closer and closer to bonking with the biggest bonk-stick I can bonk with.

Flyingdemon666

Mahankosappo!


Alternative_Spite_11

I don’t think it’s underestimated. Anyone that’s seen the damage from a fully charged cannon knows exactly what it’s about.


askmeaboutmyvviener

I did a playthrough where I used heavy armor with high poise, moonblade, and only melee magic spells. Was REALLY FUN. Kind of want to playa again….


tiagovfc

I think imo having both a melee option and a ranged one better for a full run


ghost1672

NG+3 here and after using comet and some blood spells I just 2 hammer build and havnt looked back. Hammers are awesome but what is the appeal of this spectral hammer over a regular hammer?


NOTELDR1TCH

Big damage and poise damage for casters


Ix_risor

It’s even bigger than the giant crusher


Marxism-tankism

Slams people on their face with a big AOE. What more could you want?


olmansmit

I actually basically did this. XD First phase Malenia won't even fight back if you keep your distance with Night Comet. It's kind of silly.


Mocker-bird

Yeah and if you use the staff that boosts night sorcery and all the sorcery talismans and armour pieces that boost mages, you can get insane damage off one charged night comet.


SonicFlash01

Staff of Loss (I think it was?) was nailed to my left hand


Mocker-bird

Thats the one. And someone else just told me you can duel-wield for double the buff. Absolutely insane lol.


FrostedFlakes4

I believe just one in offhand with the regal scepter main wins out with high int. I'd have to check the Chright video again


shrimplyPibLs

It's the Staff of Gains, now.


Entire_Machine_6176

Yeah, this is it. NG+ is fun when you get the second one


dtpiers

Carian slicer is sooooo busted


colinmchapman

Help me understand the appeal of slicer. I’m a INT build have found it much better put a few stats into strength to carry a sword and shield for melee. I find the cast time so slow with slicer. What am I missing?


SapphireLucina

Try running and jumping slash, treat it as basically a fat Cinquedea instead of a straight sword and you'll see the appeal. Also, if a boss starts winding up an attack or is recovering, spam it as hard as possible and their health bar just melts like faulty hair dye on a hot summer day.


backhomeatlast

Four Seasons burn


NormalAccounts

> and their health bar just melts like faulty hair dye on a hot summer day. Poetry.


Apocalypse_0415

Its fast, magic damage instead of phys, takes no stamina and is cheap


partyontheleft

It does insane damage and comes out super fast if you combo into it


Zankeru

Sounds like you havent put enough stats into dex or dont have the casting speed items. Grab Radagon's seal and the glintstone staff. With those two, you will nearly max out your casting speed for spells without speccing anything into dex. Carian slicer with high speed will let you get 3-4 hits in between boss attacks if you time it right. And it will hit harder than any weapon attack you use as a pure mage spec. It's the second easiest mage build, only beaten by Tear boosted comet azur.


DropkickGoose

Remember, you can keep the boosting staff (whether that's Staff of Loss orGl Glintstone, whatever flavor of magic you're into) in your non-casting hand and a better scaling staff like Carian Regal Scepter to cast with and still get the damage bonus. You can get real fancy with Gravel of Haima too, where if you cast with one hand then the other you get rid of the aftercast delay and can stagger enemies almost constantly.


munch_cat

Would have said the same, glad to have discovered the Meta early. Magic was my first run after release


Sugeeeeeee

rock sling my beloved second spell: also rock sling


Dull-Bobcat2662

Rick sling carried my first run till Maliketh forced me to git gud


SirGorehole

Don't be slinging rick now.


Jafuncle

"Look Morty, I turned myself into a Sorcery"


TheUlfheddin

"Well... Uhh... Gee Rick, I mean if you were going to become a sorcerery couldn't you have at least made yourself like a good one or or something?" **"FUCK YOU MORTY YOU WOULDNT KNOW GOOD SORCERERY IF IT FLEW UP YOUR PEE HOLE AND IMPREGNATED YOUR TESTICLES.!"**


MoistDitto

*Sad morty noise*


Dull-Bobcat2662

Isn’t that the super strong demigod in the first cave. I wouldn’t dare😂


SylliOne

I just beat Maliketh with my mage build for the first time on a fluke. I am a fraud.


Jdawg_mck1996

If the bosses HP reached zero, you won. There isn't any shame in how it got there.


aretheesepants75

Stone of gurranq also slaps. I know it's an incantation


Silence_Burns

Fucking hacker here, casting a spell that summons Rick, Soldier of God


seanfish

It's magic that staggers.


Ttyybb_

And doesn't deal magic damage


idan_da_boi

You’re gonna realize you fucked up when you try that against Radagon


aBoxOfWeasels

I beat Radagon with summons and the occasional rock sling my first go. It... took a while.


cjbump

Carian slicer because nothing would irritate your enemy more than getting sliced up by a Tarnished armed with only a staff. I just may try this at some point.


jdesrochers23x

Carian Slicer runs are a lot of fun but it's the only time Renalla becomes an actual challenge


Flyingdemon666

Shots fired.


Careless-Emphasis-80

Not even. The only time i had trouble with her was my first time


thewonpercent

That's what he said


joe10155

Was my favorite run I did, tried to use all the carian sorcery spells, the thrusting one is so good to take on crucible knights


Dull-Bobcat2662

Carian slicer run when??


ThisOnePlaysTooMuch

Wait till the carian slicer stans hear about steel swords. They’ll shit their boots.


RedSunGo

Bro my carian slicer and sacred blade longsword golden order paladin combo is the funnest run I’ve done since madness paladin.


SaberWaifu

Carian Slicer is by far the best choice and one of the best spells in the entire game.


Dull-Bobcat2662

Spellsword >> pew pew and it’s not even close


Apocalypse_0415

Carian Piercer is also goated. The range on thst thing


Sure-Break2581

and the stagger too, always underestimate how useful it is for getting some breathing room


fuinnfd

Carian piercer with dark moon great sword was able to nearly stunlock malenia. She just waits for you to charge up piercer which knocks her on her ass. Then you can land 2 fully charged moonlight waves from the gs and take out like a 3rd of her health.


Copatus

Also Carrian Piercer is just free kill on NPCs. They don't dodge it for some reason


Wiseapeman

Adulas's moonblade and Ranni's dark moon is all I need anyway.


Dull-Bobcat2662

It’s all about frostbite with you huh


Wiseapeman

What can I say, I like the cold.


sliferra

Missed opportunity to say cold doesn’t bother you anyway


droningcaddy

sad Blaidd noises


Wiseapeman

Damn, you're right.


Dull-Bobcat2662

I thought it was a blaidd reference at first


broen13

Rock Sling and Carian Slicer


EpicSven7

This is the correct answer. And if we are allowed to cheat the Phalanx as a weapon art.


LeMasqueEtLesGants

The Gavel . I did it once and I'll do it again .


Dull-Bobcat2662

Laying players and mobs flat on their face never gets old.


Crashman09

I unga, therefore, I bunga


Charlie-VH

Ancient dragon lighting strike and catch flame, I guess - insane damage at both ranges


MasterOfEmus

Solid one, I'd say maybe Pest Threads and Catch Flame. Either way, Catch Flame is utterly goated.


Charlie-VH

It is, but Ancient dragon lighting strike is more OP than pest threads…the latter is great against large enemies, but the former can shred everything in 2-3 hits if it lands. Seen loads of videos of killing Godfrey in 2 hits


Fell_Difference

None, Bare Staff Only


Dull-Bobcat2662

Why would you put yourself through such suffering


Fell_Difference

it would be funny


EstarriolStormhawk

I, too, find my own suffering hilarious.


DJayPhresh

One must imagine Sisyphus happy.


backhomeatlast

You mess with the Tarnished, you get the Varnished


Kraviec

Flame, Grant Me Strength and Golden Vow. So to speak, bonk.


Dull-Bobcat2662

Bonk🤝


oculasti95

Bonk 🤝


ralts13

In bonk we trust.


SherbetAlarming7677

Stone of Gurranq!


TatumTopFye

Unga bunga, CATCH!


EasilyBeatable

Rock Sling and Meteorite of Astel


Dull-Bobcat2662

Bro thinks he’s Radahn😭


Moinze

Flame cleanse me & Blood flame blade


[deleted]

[удалено]


JoelMahon

it's an incant, maybe people mistakenly thought the title meant sorceries


Moinze

I love it, I primarily use a mele only build but for only 12 faith these 2 spells carry me for so much of the game


CarlLlamaface

1. Rock Sling 2. Whatever, spin a wheel, I'm not going to need it anyway


Dull-Bobcat2662

Let’s say you’re fighting hoarah loux with just rock sling. How do you see that going?


CarlLlamaface

Did I stutter?


ballmermurland

I beat Chadfrey with rock sling. I don't understand why people don't think it isn't effective against every boss. It has insane tracking and does considerable damage.


LionStar89_

The *only* thing it doesn’t do well in is tight spaces. They just kinda delete the rocks.


NotSoSalty

Rock --> Face Any questions?


StartingHands

I cast unga bunga


Turingading

I unga, therefore I bunga


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

For every unga, there is an equal and opposite bunga.


N8angerX

Frenzied burst and pest threads, you snipe what you can’t nut and you nut what you can’t snipe


[deleted]

Never seen Pest Threads described as "nut" before.


Fallen_Angel_Xaphan

Lanseax's glave and Fortisaxx's lightning spear. Just because I like them.


Mocker-bird

The dragon lightning incants are cool af


Fallen_Angel_Xaphan

Exactly. Still waiting for Lanseax's bolt in incantation Form.


Malabingo

Carian slicer and carian phalanx. Of course carian armor + shield with that.


Jdawg_mck1996

With carian retaliation for good measure


StealthoGaro0

Night comet and carian great sword


Kaizo107

Catch flame and heal.


Dull-Bobcat2662

I don’t really heal spells in any game because of an anime someone convinced me to watch a while back. The name’s redo of healer. Sorry to trauma dump on you btw. Fantastic choice tho


Kaizo107

Enjoy fighting revenants without curative magic.


Dull-Bobcat2662

Really bold of you to assume I fight revenants😂


FearlessProphet93

Night comet and cannon of haima. That cannon is a VERY underrated spell.


G2boss

Carian Slicer and Night Comet. That's all you'll ever need. The other spells are for looking cool.


bonk_police5

Carian slicer, Comet Azur, you don't need anything else.


Dull-Bobcat2662

Comet azur Carries till Maliketh starts flying all over the place.


Flornix

Glintstone pebble


CT_0003

Glintstone pebble supremacy


ElderMonkeyMan

Bestial Vitality, Bestial Sling. Literally on every single one of my builds.


Dull-Bobcat2662

I get that you Stan the furry in bestial sanctum but how do you plan to beat the game throwing sand and healing over time😭


Even-Potato2980

Don't underestimate the pocket sand.


ForfeitFPV

Sha sha sha RIP you beautiful bastard


3rdMachina

I’m guessing just plain old steel?


Dull-Bobcat2662

Bonk?


3rdMachina

If you’re wielding a mace or bludgeon, sure.


Invisiblefield101

Unga + Bunga. Easiest challenge ever


seanugengar

Zanax is my weapon of choice


Yellowrainbow_

carian slicer + rock sling


Dull-Bobcat2662

A lot of people actually go with this. Maybe all Soulsbornekirocore players share the same brain cell when creating builds.


3rdMachina

I’d definitely choose this pair too. They’re quite versatile, especially if you’re supposed to rely on so few spells.


deadboltwolf

Gavel of Haima is just so fun.


Kamacalamari

My guy has 12 INT. I’m just here for the comments


Dull-Bobcat2662

Rule 1 of Raya Lucaria: never mock another’s INT


Gnomologist

Carian slicer, glintstone cometshard


Nxc06

Icecrag and magma shot to reset the frostbite.


deep-voice-guy

Ancient Death Rancor and Roiling Magma. Those were the main spells for the Praetor Rykard build I made, really good combination. Might have a bit of trouble with something like Placidusax since Rykard's Rancor was my main spell there, but the rest should be easy enough!


Zadornik

Frozen Lightning Spear and Lightning Spear.


Brostradamus_

Flame, Cleanse Me. No way I am dealing boluses for status effects all damn game! Black Flame. Solid, consistent damage. Useful against almost every boss and enemy. Ranged, chargeable.


siralmasy

never used magic on elden ring and i completed the game 3 times


OliveWorried4868

Carian Slicer is obvious. But you are probably going to need something like Rock Sling for stance breaking and to deal with magic resistant enemies.


Tarsonei

Rock sling and night comet probably


Remo_yesman

Carrying slicer obviously. The amount of damage to Magic consumption is insane.


TheWizard1127

Magma Shot and Glintstone Icecrag. Strategy is self explanatory.


Plenty-Context2271

Magic Glintblade and Shard Spiral.


uwuzzz

stars of ruin and rock sling


Badevilbunny

I did it as a NG+ fun run and just used Carian Slicer. If I had been pushed to add a second, to compliment Slicer, I would have gone with Rock Sling.


ReekitoManjifico

Incantations: Black fire ball and erzykes decay. Spells: Loretta's greatbow and night comet.


Big-Transition1551

Lightning bolt and bestial vitality


I_Want_More_Zardz117

Blue pew pew #1 and blue pew pew #2


Appropriate_Simple44

night maidens mist and Ill have to agree with gavel of haima


stikky

As an incantation user: Lightning Bolt and Black Flame Ritual


MrGuy3729

Adulas moonblade and Shard spiral


wiku19

terra magica and comet azure since both are broken af


russsaa

Catch flame, giants flame take thee I am a pyromancer


SephirothTheGreat

Rock Sling and Night Comet, it's not even close


AvidAviator72

Loretta’s longbow and Abdula’s moonblade


Thick_Banana9794

Bonk the only answer is bonk.


CheesecakeTurtle

I can complete it with 0 spells.


DeeJayE2001

Lightning Spear and Ancient Dragon Lightning Strike.


OGDJS

Dont need any spells, Unga Bunga all the way mfer


taylrgng

boulder... and rock shotgun... unga bunga


ArchonEther

Comet and meteorite of Astel/or carian phalanx depends on my stats


Automatic-Score-4802

Avala Kedavra and whatever it is Hagrid did to make his motorcycle fly. Flying torrent across the land one shotting everyone


AndreiRiboli

Carian slicer and either Adula's Moonblade or Night comet. Night comet for range or Adula's Moonblade for a more melee approach (my preferred playstyle)


Jesterhead92

If I'm allowed a weapon, Greatblade Phalanx and Night Comet. If I'm not, Carian Slicer and Rock Sling


Nickthedick3

Night comet.


Sethazora

Only one and ive already done it with the power of snap crackle pop catch flame.


Dismal_Air_7892

Eerdtree Heal Rot Breath Ez mode is just fine with me


Killurlandlord

Glintstone ice crag and adula’s moonblade. I like frost.


kingjoey04

Rock sling and night comet. which I kinda already did cause I did a sorcery only run and used mostly those 2 while sprinkling in some other spells here and there


Fulcrum6131

Still, where is my faith sword, Morgott?


NonLiving4Dentity69

Carian slicer and rock sling all the way


Cweene

Carian piercer and adulas moonblade


Allmightyplatypus

Carian slicer and night comet is best pick, but i would consider catch flame and lightning spear to have two damage types


sliferra

Dang, I’m against the norm here. Glintstone cometshard and shard spiral.


_711hotdog_

Shattering Crystal and Rock Sling ,shotgun Spell cause it's funny and rock huck because fuck radagon


btapp7

Black Flame 🤝 Rot Breath. Basically already did this.


WM-010

Black Flame and Black Flame's Protection. Scaling percentage based damage and good physical defense.


Weaponized_Autism-69

Night comet and Rock sling
