Soul Arrow and Heavy Soul Arrow are your main spells until you get the Greater versions of them. You should be able to hit 60 shortly after acquiring the Court Sorcerer's Staff. Once those stats are achieved, basically focus on raising Intelligence up to 40-60 as soon as you can, increasing Vigor and Attunement as needed along the way. Pour most of your souls into Intelligence (30), and then Vigor (no more than 20, for now) or, optionally, Attunement (no more than 18). Spend any Titanite Shards reinforcing your Sorcerer's Staff up to +3 or +4. If you picked Fire Gem as Burial Gift, apply it to your Mail Breaker as soon as possible. BATTLEMAGE MAGIC BY MAIL GUIDE PLUSA lot of points to spend for one spell (8 SL's), but it's a useful one, and on the plus side there is also the added benefit of gaining limited healing ability, whether through an actual heal miracle or merely a chime's weapon art, freeing up estus allotment for more ashen estus. And both of these weapons are still inferior in terms of damage, reach, and speed to Farron Flashsword but nonetheless, may be worth having at the ready for PvP.ġ5 Faith - Mainly for Tears of Denial. The Cleric's Candlestick is another good choice due to its A-scaling as well as its added utility as both a staff and a sword, although it is inferior in terms of spell buff to any actual staff you will be using (~200 at +10, which isn't terrible, but which does make it hard to recommend). Of all the straight swords that gain S-scaling with the crystal infusion, the Shortsword is notable for requiring the least stat investment for a Sorcerer to wield effectively. While these weapons are of little use in PvE, in PvP it can help to have a melee weapon available to quickly finish off wounded opponents and other tactical applications. Later on, you will always want to avoid damage entirely rather than block it but if you're like me you may find this shield (and by extension, the one SL point in Strength) worthwhile.įWIW, also allows you to one-hand both the Shortsword and the Cleric's Candlestick. In any case, give other stats priority while leveling and increase this last, if at all.Ĩ Strength - Again I put one point in here early-on so that I could wield a halfway decent shield, the Pontiff Knight Shield, which I did find fairly useful during the early game. Ultimately whether you raise this stat or leave it at base just depends on what final pieces of equipment you want to use and if you want to fast roll or not. Just a few points is all that is needed to open that up considerably, so if you want to play a bit of fashion souls while still maintaining your usual effectiveness in combat or keep a chime handy for casting miracles, this will make it that much easier to do so. It's just that you will be very restricted as to what or even how many pieces of armor you can wear. You can leave this at base and still keep the fast roll. It seems like a safe bet as I don't see where else to put them, personally, but you may want to redistribute them as you see fit sorcery PvE starts out rough but ends up becoming quite easy so whether or not these 3 points are here probably makes little difference in the end.įor PvP, however, I would recommend taking some points out of Attunement and/or Vigor and reallocating them here.ġ0 Vitality - 3 SL's provides some much-needed wiggle room when it comes to equipment, allowing you to keep the fast roll (vital, IMO). Also, if you intend on using the Dusk Crown Ring, this can help make that less punishing.ġ2 Endurance - On my character I put these three points in early-on so that I could cast two HSA's in a row without running completely out of Stamina, helping to avoid the short penalty before Stamina begins recharging. Having a larger HP pool can help you survive one or two extra hits before death. So "stay a while, and listen."Ģ7 Vigor - 1,000 HP Base, 1,300 HP Embered (800 HP Base, 1040 HP Embered w/ Dusk Crown Ring)Ĥ0 Vigor - 1213 HP Base, 1576 HP Embered (971 HP Base, 1261 HP Embered w/ Dusk Crown Ring). Below you will find everything you need to know to become a powerful spellslinger. It is primarily focused on the PvE-oriented mage but I will try to include any relevant tips or tidbits I've come across regarding PvP as well. This guide is expressly written for players who are curious about playing a ranged magic DPS but don't know where to start. Pure Sorcery Glass Cannon Mage Guide for PvE / PvP by SeyroonTheMage
