A lost Way of White miracle. Launches a white discus which slices into foes and returns to its conjurer.
Long ago, when the imprints left by the gods were still deep, miracles of the Way of White existed alongside aureoles.
Those who yearned for the long-lost aureoles fully believed that they would return, one day.
Acquired From
- Found in: Painted World of Ariandel, inside the church near where you meet Sir Vilhelm.
- Fextralife Video: Way of White Corona Location
- Fextralife Video: Way of White Corona in action
- Video Location - From the Corvian Settlement Bonfire, run out the house, cross the bridge and go up the hill past the corvian knight. Where the knight entered go there and follow that ridge path all the way until you see a ladder which you will take. From the ladder head straight into the doorway and climb up the ladder. Follow that path to the roof of the church and drop down (or take the ladder). The Way of White Corona is located in the church guarded by a Corvian Knight.
Notes
- The spell acts like a boomerang, returning to the player once the disc is tossed.
- The damage is (Spell Buff * 0.85).
- The Corona can hit 3 times in a row if it reaches its maximum distance.
- The Way of White Corona is commonly regarded as one of, if the worst Miracle in the game. The damage is very poor, only dealing about 100+ damage even on Faith dedicated builds; the startup is predictable, and the time it takes before the discus returns is also very slow. It will also dissipate if it touches anything solid (excluding enemies). Game patches have made attempts to better the Miracle, but it is still consider lackluster and not worth using.
- Two discs can be on screen at the same time.
- Corona is the Latin word for "Crown". It is also the name of the aura of plasma that surrounds the Sun.
- Regulation 1.22 increased the damage and Patch 1.11 sped up the animation.
- Damage dealt is Physical.

I spent on a long time on a faith build trying to make good use of this spell because it just looks so dang cool despite its abysmal damage - and taking advantage of the physical damage combined with the fact that it repeatedly deals damage made this a godsend for the .001 instances where lightning couldn't cut it.

Too bad From Software isn't tuning the game content anymore, especially after the DLC came out they just gave up balancing stuff they never used. I do wonder though, if you use this spell in low level invasions, would it work?

The game of frizbee has come a long way since then. Now, they're made of foam and plastic so they can do more damage than whatever this spell is made of

There is no reason this spell should do less damage than Lightning Spear. It should do more, in my opinion, but there's certainly no reason it should do less. Not only does it do far less damage than LS, it does close to no damage at all. This is the worst spell in the game. It could have been fun, but it's useless. Never use it.

actually this miracle isn’t as bad as everyone talks about it , I found a way to use it properly , you can use it to make a diversion , you can try to desorientate your opponent by going around while the disk is used as a trap to prevent your enemy’s actions , just keep it near and use it as combo starter if you time it right , it’s like putting an automatic mine on your strategy... or even can be used as fleeing while being assisted by the disc behind you to strike your pursuer... its like deploying a temporary ally to use its little time to use it as a diversion or a back up plan.... anyway , i’m just here to say that even bad spells can be useful when you try to find a strategy about it

IMO, this spell should've been the Cleric's alternative to Farron Dart. Picture this, Way of White Corona is given the cast animation of Farron Dart, has its damage reduced a tad bit as compromise, focus cost reduced to 5-6, and then no longer dissipates when hitting a wall. Would it not be a valuable spell for chip damage and other utility?

Does this spell deal magic damage? I know it isn't a lightning spell, but it has to have some damage typing, right?

Actually if you manage to make it stop on the target it deals pretty good damage. At 55 faith, saint talisman +8 it deals approximately 800 white a good cast. Generally the sweet spot is at max lock on range

I like this miracle because I can make a character from a different game and play him on Dark Souls 3. Pretty much the only ranged attack spell I use

Okay, no. "worst miracle in the game"? No. Divine pillars of***** takes that spot by the farthest margin imaginable.
