Magic or Spells in Dark Souls 3 perform a variety of offensive, defensive and support functions. Sorceries, Pyromancies, and Miracles are listed below. Hexes from Dark Souls 2 did not return as a spell category; instead, they appear as dark miracles, dark pyromancies, and dark sorceries. Spells require Attunement Slots to equip obtained through Attunement or a multitude of Rings. Casting spells consumes Stamina and FP. Cast speed can be increased through Dexterity or Sage Ring up to a cap.

Soooo it use take me 3 hits to kill a dancer from the boreal valley, when I was doing 525 damage. Now I'm doing 699 and it still takes 3 hits to kill the same ennemies wtf ? Balancing ennemies to your lvl doesn't usually means you don't get any stronger...

I wish you could attune more than one instance of the same spell to reduce its FP cost. Sure, many spells you can just get one instance of per NG cycle, but it would go someway towards giving dedicated spellcasters more ammo.

4 New Spells03 Oct 2016 19:33
We saw previews of two already... that circle boomerang miracle, what looks like an ice spray sorcerery...So I guess maybe there will be one new pyromancy, and then... maybe a new dark magic spell in one of the categories?

Why didn't they bring back all the other spells from DS1 and DS2?17 Sep 2016 14:56
Now I know I don't have proper knowledge of DS1 because I never played it but I know there are spells that didn't get brought back in the last game in the series. And Dark Souls 2 had MANY spells that never made it into this game.I'll just list ALL of the DS2 spells-Homing Soul Arrow-Great Homing Soul Arrow-Shockwave (Though it was useless)-Soul Vortex-Soul Bolt (Even though it's just WDB it was still different)-Soul Geyser-Unleash Magic (The power within of sorcery)-Focus Souls (The stronger and cooler version of Soul Bolt)-Soul FlashI know that they removed the old fire orb and made it the new GFB so I won't bother with it-Fire Tempest-Lingering Flame-Forbidden Sun (The REAL forbidden sun, Not chaos bed because It was better and more satisfying)-Immolation (but it probably went extinct)-Outcry (The best of the storm spells)-Dance Of Fire (The only spell that I think was affected by whatever hand you cast it in)-Fire Snake (I know Black Serpent is the same thing but It's nor satisfying to use and I prefer the old Fire Snake over Black Serpent)-Heavenly Thunder-Soul Appease-Blinding Bolt-Unveil-Perseverance (The spell, not the WA)-Splintering Lightning SpearAnd onto the unused class that can be considered "Dark Magic"-Dark Orb-Dark Hail-Dark Fog-Whisper Of Despair-Repel-Twisted Barricade (though it's already in the game as a sorcery)-Numbness-Scraps Of Life-Dark Storm-Resonant Soul-GRS-Climax-Resonant Flesh-Resonant Weapon-Life Drain Patch-Profound Still (But it might already be in the game)-Promised Walk Of Peace-Dark Greatsword (but it's already in the game)-Recollection-Dark Dance (Probably one of the better Hexes, it wouldn't be bad in DS3)Sorry about this long post but I don't know how to minimize things. They should bring them back none the less.

Hello. I'm making a support build for PvE, and I'm wondering if someone can answer these questions for me.-Can the miracle enhancement rings(other than the Priestess Ring) also boost miracle buffs?-Which talisman or chime should I use?-What should mine stats be.(Planning on stopping at SL 120)

Best stats for low-investment in pyro?18 May 2016 04:34
Thinking about 20/12 for most of the useful spells. Is it worth bumping up to 20 for some of the dark pyromancies? Trying to stay strictly at 125.

pyromancies need buffs04 May 2016 21:22
pyromancies haven't been weaker than now. main reason is that bull***** 2-3 second cast time. you'll have no chance suprising anyone in pvp with that... sorceries are way better for pvp. QQ

Top 4 things that would make magic viable again02 May 2016 14:18
1. Reduced FP costs, or the ability to cast spells with 1 FP. Weapon Arts can be used at FULL POWER, with 1 FP, while mages are stuck chugging Ashen Estus if they are a single point off!2. Improved overall damage and/or effectiveness of spells. Late game spells (outside of pyromancies) have pitiful damage, even with 60+ Int/Fth, this is just sad, and makes the lower power spells more viable (but not by a lot).3. Cast speeds are awful, and even with knowing about the Sage's Ring and the minimum 20-25 Dex requirement for decent cast times, spells are still beat out by fast weapons or hyper armor.and 4. Stamina costs for some spells is too *****ed high! Some of the better spells in the game eat through stamina so fast, that pure casters with little to no End invested are going to be left to tired to roll when their big spell misses that really fast enemy for the 3rd time.*These are my opinions from playing 80+ hrs as a caster, if you have any input, please share it!

Spells can be cast without meeting requirements of the weapon.29 Apr 2016 04:02
The damage and AR buff will probably be weaker, but you can cast spells like hidden body or what have you without actually meeting the reqs for the staff/chime/whatever.

God bless Dr abaka for his marvelous work in my life, I was diagnosed of HERPES since 2011 and I was taking my medications, I wasn't satisfied i needed to get the HERPES out of my system, I searched about some possible cure for HERPES i saw a comment about Dr abaka, how he cured HERPES with his herbal medicine, I contacted him and he guided me. I asked for solutions, he started the remedy for my health, he sent me the herbal medicine through UPS SPEED POST. I took the medicine as prescribed by him in 2 weeks and 3 days later i was cured from HERPES, Dr abaka truly you are great, do you need his help also? Why don't you contact him through email:{drabakaspelltemple@gmail.com or call +2349063230051} thanks.
