Lightning stake, lightning arrow and lightning storm are the offensive lightning miracles that are worth your time. Dont bother with lightning spears, they try to get 2 jobs done at once (ranged and melee) and they suck at both.

sorry for the silly question but im going for the achievement to collect all miracles. i accidently used aldrich's boss soul for the darkmoon longbow and not the lifehunt scythe miracle. do you need to own all the miracles on ONE playthrough or can it be across multiple game saves? do i need to wait untill another newgame + to try for the achievement again? thanks in advance

I wish miracles cost less FP for their effect/damage. They are good, but FP efficiency is the name of the game for PvE when FP recovery is limited to Ashen Estus. Hidden Blessings are limited and Simple infusion takes forever. Stamina costs severely limit spam already, so why not?

You have to beat the game to get decent faith projectiles. Sunlight spear required you kill the final boss, and lightning arrow requires the ringed city. ***** you, Miyazaki

Some of you clerics just love to *chime* in with your spells... Tho, guess what? Some of us are *unfaltering* as we use our talismans, and shall not staggered by mere words! .... I've no regrets from making this comment.

Done some field testing on the little poison spewing mobs in Earthen Peak to get total % increase from buffs. Test with 60 faith, starter talisman +8, lightning arrow. Left number is total damage done, right number is % increase compared to 0 rings and 0 buffs: No rings, no buffs: 261 First Born ring: 325 (19.7%) First Born + Morne: 376 (30.6%) 2 rings + Rose WA: 474 (45%) 2 rings + SSS WA: 419 (37.7%) First Born + Rose and SSS WA: 457 (43%) 2 rings + Rose and SSS WA: 528 (50.6%) Done the same test with Melee range Sunlight spear and the % ratios were the same within 0.9% margin of error (0 buffs and 0 rings: 478; 2 rings and 2 buffs: 962, a 50.3% increase) I didn't test banner, since it needs to be held for its buff to work and I'm not using it as my primary weapon.

Why is crown of dusk on the list of buffing items? I tested it with wowc and lightning spear and it didn't increase the damage. So unless I'm an idiot don't use it i gues.

Contrary to popular belief I think miracle builds are way better at PVP than any other school of magic. Because of one property they have which is poisecasting. Sure you can just spam pers to use CBV/ CSS but that makes me vomit.

Honestly I think Miracles in this game are pretty great. From a support perspective at least, I made a holy priest to support my boyfriend through his first ever playthrough of all three games and Dark Souls 3 was one of the smoothest. I think the only downfall of Miracles in DS3 is that you don't really get any good ones until the Catacombs of Carthus, and you ride on Lightning Stake & Great Heal for some time. Though once you get both of the sunlight spells, and stuff like caressing tears & lightning storm, it's fantastic for zoning enemies and keeping any summons you have in the fight.
It's definitely not as high damage as Sorcery, or as staggering as Pyromancies, but considering the poise bonus you get when using Talismans it really can pack a punch and provide some unavoidable damage to people who get too aggressive in fights.
