It only costs 30 FP so at minimum ATN you can cast it 3 times.

Grass Crest Shield? 4 Stamina per second. Chloranthy Ring? 7 Stamina per second, 10 if you've got the DLC. Green Blossom? 6 seems more than fair. Meanwhile, a Pyromancy with no lore connections to Chloranthy and reqs low enough to use it at Level 1 that doesn't even MENTION buffing Stamina Regen is more powerful than all three of those put together. What even.

The icon reminds me of that heart attack meme lmfao

It's about drive, it's about power (within)

Submit

I use this with demons scar and have the saint tree bellvine in the offhand. Chime WA with Sun Princess ring makes this only take 10%~ of your health, been having a lot of fun on my Pyro with it.

Submit

It seems to be a bit more than a 20% damage buff to pyromancies if you're also wearing witch's and great swamp rings. Seems like the multiplicative boost stacks with those. Anyway, it's pretty good. Not DS1 power within by any means, but noticeable.

This is like someone taking their shirt off before a fist fight.

Submit

The effect doesnt last long enough to be worth it imo

Submit

I was missing this. It was a pyromancy I overlooked. After finally getting Warmth in the mound makers covenant, I looked up what I was missing and it was this.

Submit

*uses power within* its morbin time

Submit

im pretty sure stuff like the pontiff eye rings or old wolf curved sword negate power within once they proc, haven't tested it just something ive noticed

Submit

This + Ledo WA be like: DETH

Submit

This was like designed for SL1.

Submit

Pyromancy is feckin great on almost any build
10/10 would make a blood sacrifice again

I see some comments saying you can equip and remove the dragon linger ring for extended boost, Think carefully before doing this, it will perma increase the timer to 42 seconds yes but you will also get the damage taken penalty of 1% per second which the ring nerfed (so 42% HP loss instead of 30%) over 42 seconds.

Submit

This spell is beyond savage on my Iron Knight Tarkus cosplay build. 66 STR two-handed Heavy-infused Greatsword you're looking at 811 AR unsplit. Combine that with 1400 hp, 179 stamina and lingering dragoncrest +2 ****'s downright terrifying.

Submit

Bloodlust katana, red tearstone ring, morian blade, flynns ring, this.

Submit

Sellsword TB + Ring of the Evil Eye + Pontiff's Right Eye + Pontiff's Left Eye + This

Submit

ahhh, you were at my side all along!

wrong quote, I know, but it's fitting for how overlooked this feels sometimes. fantastic spell

Submit

The "may kill you, but will kill whatever you used it against way more" spell

Submit

Is the damage boost worth it in PVP?

Submit

This thing got such a big nerf from the original. In ds1 power within could be acquired practically as soon as you got out of the asylum, and it also had better effects. For this one, you have to progress through most of the game to get it, and it only increases damage dealt by a lower amount than ds1. Still a pretty good spell though.

Submit

So if you cast it again, will it further deplete your health another 29%?

Submit

Does this stack with Sacred Oath?

Submit

Wait... does this increase spell damage as well? Only AR is listed, but I swear that this spell increases the damage of my other spells.

Submit

Even though it's had a 20% nerf from Dark Souls 1 (which increased ALL damage by 40%), this spell remains one of the best in the entire game.

Submit

The power within,the power within,the power within,the power within,THE POWER WITHIN!!!(Yeah)

Submit

Cheap, powerful and let's you really hit hard and fast. I wear the lingering dragoncrest +2 ring to get as much mileage out of it as possible. This spell rewards ruthless in-your-face punishment. The kind that makes chuggers weep and dc. Pair it with perseverance and you can trade profitably with almost any weapon in the game.

Submit

oath of sunlight also removes this buff

Submit

if you use these while dual wielding greatshields of glory they actually become manageable because of the stamina regen and extra ar

Submit

Pretty fun as a bloodlust type spell for Ultra's, since they can get insane damage and badly needed stamina regen at the same time.

Submit

My favorite spell in the game, good for literally any build, since that pyromancy flame doesn't take up any weight, and the requirements are close to nothing.

Submit

Kaioken!

Submit

Super good buff and available at SL1! Powerful in PVE, more Dangerous in PVP.

Submit

Love it, this + carthus flame arc takes my 400 Ar bastard sword to nearly 700 Ar, split though it may be.

Submit

Why nowhere is anything about the stamina regen? I mean ingame.) here you wrote it. I never knew. Just testet it in compirson to deep protection (made a weapon and Pyromancy dmg tests) And omg its almost double as fast as with deep protection. Just wrote normal is 45 per second, and this gives you 30?! wzf that's veeeery nice! :)

Submit

This and lothric war banner stacks, perfect for casters.

Submit

Also doesn't stack with tears of denial

Submit

the power within... the power within... the power within... the power within... THE POWER WITHIN!!!

Submit

lol, magical steroids

Submit

Does it stack with the Warcry WA?

Submit

blessed +10 Lothric Knight Greatsword + blessed +10 Rapier + Sun Princess Ring + Sacred Chime of Filianore WA + Bountiful Light with this is quiet good. I used this combo for all the PVE and PVP.

Submit

Does this include damage with bows?

Submit

So this spell has nothing to do with the spell buff. If that's the case then I'll use it with white hair talisman to use it then heal myself.

Submit

Finally, something useful in PvE AND Pvp!

Submit

Tips for any fellow glass cannon bros use replenishment and cast power within 2 times, once after replenishment, and once after first power within runs out and you won’t die. Then repeat the process if necessary.

Submit

The go to spell for Guts RP.

Submit

No stat requirements + huge stamina recovery. Best spell in the game for "Running through". ie if you are trying to smurf or get +2 equipment

Submit

I combined this with a heavy mace + blessed weapon + sun princess ring + ethereal oak shield and filianore WA to offset the HP loss. It's monsterous. Killed a lot of players in just a couple of hits.

Submit

Dislike if you like dark souls 2

Submit

It's like adding the effect of the lord of cinder to the body and/boosting the effect to the max. Or think of it as opening your chakra gates. But lore wise it makes sense as the flame is simply the souls ablaze but this is an unnatural way to be embered so it harms you like the witches found out leading to the chaos flame and demon race.

Submit

akin to lighting ur insides on fire and then fighting with ur newly found adrenaline, good thing its the semi safe magical fire and not the OH FCKN GOD IM DYING kinda fire

Submit

So basically this spell is just causing the casters body to have something like a controlled adrenaline rush, but the strain from being in this state is slowly injuring them due to removing all of the normal "blocks" needed to prevent the body from over-stressing itself???

Submit

the power within...

Submit

Drains 30% of your Maximum HP when used over the course of 30 seconds. If you have 1000 HP, you will lose 10 HP a second. However, this can be partially ignored by wearing the Lingering Dragoncrest Ring +2, which extends the spell effect to 42 seconds, thus making the damage accumulate, or "tick", slower. This is probably the best Body Buff in the game, as it gives you the greatest damage buff, while also making your Stamina regenerate much more quickly. The downside is negligible if you have some form of Health Regeneration, if you even care to lose 30% of your maximum life over 42 seconds. After all, the downside doesn't even matter if you never get hit, so go wild and use this instead. It has low requirements, so most builds will be able to use it fairly easily.

9/10, the most impactful Body Buff in the game. Actually gives you a decent damage buff, and extra Stamina Regeneration, with a minimal drawback.

Submit

Oh uhm, I forgot... what the heck does "additional modifier = 0.94*damage" mean? Am I dumb or does it decrease your damage output in PvP by 6%? It... Might be better to... clarify?

Submit

Can this spell kill you? If not, can you cast it if it's gonna leave you with 1 HP? Also, can it be coupled with Red Tearstone ring?

Submit

KAIO KEN!!!

Submit

It should last 100 seconds, draining a hundredth of your health every second, and give +40% to ar, flat defence and absorption. I honestly don't understand why it got nerfed so bad, along with a truckload of other cool things. It doesn't even fit the lore implication of it being banned for killing people, as anyone who isn't undead would die from it since clerics didn't use pyromancy and living men couldn't use estus. It was so powerful yet so weak, now it just sucks. Cheers, From. You ruined possibly the coolest spell in Dark Souls. We'll done.

Submit

People below are saying it lasts 15 seconds, but the page says 30 seconds. Which is it?

I'm trying to figure out if it's worth leveling to 10/10 so I can use this.

Submit

Does the spell buff gained from the stats affect this spell??? In other words is it the same spell with 10 int/faith or let's say 40/40??

Submit

The power within, the power within......the power within, the power within....the power within, the power within.....the power within!

I use this to mimic Gael's second stage (for the appearance)

Added PVE vs PVP numbers, source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3jeOmvYlGk

Submit

Stacks with pontiffs right eye, and Flynns ring for a massive ar boost of about 45%. if your at about 10 weight which gives you around 10% ar boost with Flynns ring without the ring you'll get 35% max boost.

Submit

Guess it doesn't stack with Deep Protection anymore. They cancel each other out. Still works with Sacred Oath or Oath of Sunlight though.

Submit

honestly love this spell now... was able to get 800 AR on a dagger. use with bountiful sunlight, it counters the hp loss and lasts longer.

its not just the 20% damage bonus. its the massive stamina regen that comes with the extra damage. such a strong buff.

Submit

In PvP I was able to use Carthus Beacon and Divine Blessing (They stack apparently) and got to around 945 AR with Chaos Astora Greatsword+10 and the pillar rings, and when I used this as a trump card, my AR was easily up to around 1,010, not sure if it stacked with Carthus Beacon and Divine Blessing

Submit

This thing got buffed. Lasts very long now and doesn't suffer from diminishing returns. SL 35 +5 weapons power within + Lothric Knight UGS w/ Gold Pine and I get 632 AR. Great Club I get 501...pure physical...SL 35...+5 weapons...GG.

Submit

Buff to 45 seconds and make it drain 45% health and 30% bonus damage and it would actually be worth using

Submit

This spell is great for invasions. I found that victory in an invasion was more about applying enough damage at the right time than who can drain the most estus. Invaders don't win the battle of attrition, they need overwhelming force. This gives that. Between the stamina buff and the damage boost, if they don't run, you can easily drop someone in fifteen seconds.

Submit

For the extra challenge of getting gud of course

Submit

10/10 would use on giant dad build

Submit

''Removes 30% of your hp over the course of the duration.''

This can be used at low level builds if you use your stats right: https://mugenmonkey.com/darksouls3/120701

TLDR: Always have 10 vigor and unembered
Max heal while in power within 10 hp per second: Bountiful Sunlight, Sun Princess Ring, any Chime weapon art. (invasions at around undead settlement because level 21)
Nullify power within damage the cheapest way: Bountiful Light, Sun Princess Ring (invasions in high wall of lothric because level 11)

I did not put blessed weapons in there but they wont heal you almost at all because you need to upgrade them to make their healing delay better. You can also wear full thorns armor but hey that's just being an ass Kappa

Submit

15 seconds. Seriously.

Submit

Power Within was my favorite buff in DS1 and seeing it return in DS3 was a great surprise.... till I saw the stats. 15 seconds is way too short and the damage buff is minimal compared to a sacred Oath + Deep Protection combo. Plus the later lasts much longer. Increase the duration to 30 seconds and I will consider using this spell again, otherwise it is a waste

Submit

They should increase the duration, 15 seconds are a joke

Submit

Am I correct in assuming that this doesn't affect spellcasting?

Submit

Does it have any effect on bleed weapons?

Submit

Does power stack on top of sss weapon art

Submit

Why? It multiplies ALL damage, including resin buff

Submit

Has anyone tried dedicated composite short bow with Power Within? I imagine the super short time limit hurts this idea...

Submit

In case anyone was wondering, 878 AR when two handing Yhorm's GM +5 at 50 Str

Submit

Went from SL 190 to 208 farming these proofs (ítem discovery 471). I'll consider that the bright side because i only so it for the achievement.

Submit

also doesnt stack with anything except sacred oath

Submit

Only 15 seconds? That's a joke. They should increase it, something like 60-45 seconds sonds great

Submit

This hasnt been tested and it may not work at all so if someone could test it that would be great. The game isnt avalible to me right not to test it but ive done some research online. Ive been trying to find a way to use this in my build without taking any damage and i think ive found a way:reqirements:1000 hp (no more, but less is okay)3 att slotsa lot of faith, 35 at minimum any chime a blessed weapon +10sun princess ringlingering dragoncrest ring After (or before?) casting power within, cast bountiful sunlight and then cast gentle prayer with your chime. For this to work you will have to keep the chime in your hand until power within runs out, then you will have to cast power within and the prayer again but the main miracle will keep going. By having all the things above equipped and the miracles running, you should be replenishing about 17 hp per second and losing 15.

Submit

Is that good or bad?

Submit

15 seconds is too short. Reduce or remove the stamina regeneration and make it a 60 second buff like most other buffs. 30% HP loss is fine if its over 60 seconds.

Submit

i though this pyromancy is to regenerate health, but i guess not..... lol

Submit

on weapons doesnt mean spells?

Submit

The requirements for power within is wrong. It's 10/10 int/faith. Also, it only cost 1 attunement slot to use it.

Submit

THE POWER WITHIN!!!
