Using the Beast Claw Seal to cast the Bestial incantations with only 16 Strength is probably why they did so little damage. The Beast Claw Seal uses Strength scaling.
Oh, did you guys know that if you play online, Fia’s Champions take the build of everyone who hugged Fia? So you can go against an Ai version of any player who has hugged Fia, possibly even yourself

53:14 Loretta's spells are classified as Glintblade sorcery rather than Glimstone - the colour is actually a clue, since Glintblade sorceries use a pure blue whereas most Glintstone spells are cyan (except for Founding Rain of Stars and Stars of Ruin). But the more reliable hint is just staring at the crest that shows up when you cast it - the circular crest with two blades is the Glintblade sigil, while the Glinstone sigil is the one on Terra Magica. Either way, not that important to the run, just cool trivia.
Carian sorceries, not Glintblade, but yeah. They were the personal spells of the Carian royal house, the rulers of Raya Lucaria, who mainly taught Glintstone sorceries.
Loretta's Sorceries are classified in their own Category. they have their own crest that looks similar to the Carian crest. why? the Carians use swords. she modified it into a bow
@@loredotdll on its own yes, but you pair it with something actually spammable and you can summon your orb and then go to town for 4-5 seconds without having to worry about it. Basically free damage to add on top of your main dps (super busted with blasphemous blade L2 because of the range and stagger damage makes it easier for the orb to connect)
@@samuelmcary8809 That's true, I suppose. I was more or less speaking from experience and I don't have the brain capacity to switch spells.. but that does sound like a good tactic, yes.
For a future trick involving spells. I’ll use the frenzy flame for example. If you use the seal that boost frenzy flame incantations in your off hand and use a better faith scaling seal like the erdtree seal. You’ll still get the boost of damage from the frenzy flame and the scaling from the erdtree seal. Unless that was nerfed from last time I did it. It’s not like a massive damage difference but it’s like a 100 damage to a 150
I know its been 6 months but using 2 of the same seal is actually better than erdtree seal in main hand and the seal which boosts the type of spells you wanna use, example: i do more damage with 2 +25 gravel stone seals with dragon cult spells than having erdtree seal maxed in main hand and gravel stone seal in off hand
Fun fact about blackflame spells, the wave of black flame spell is just a stronger version of the fireball one with only a slight increase in FP cost with a wide range as well
Um no, they’re completely different. I’m assuming ur talking about Scouring Black Flame since you didn’t include the actual name of the spell. The bullets don’t work the same way. The distance covered per second isn’t the same. The coverage is also different. Sorry just incorrect.
@@Zethios what you said initially was Scouring Black Flame was a “stronger version” of Black Flame (fireball). Meaning they work the same way but scouring black flame does more damage. The latter may be true but the former definitely isn’t true. They don’t work the same way. One is a single target spell and the other is an AoE which can target multiple enemies at once. Scouring Black Flame is slower, doesn’t go as far but has a broader spread. Mechanically they don’t work the same way. They’re two completely different spells. That was my point. Flame Sling & GiantsFlame Take Thee is an example of two spells that work the same way but one does more damage. Glintstone Pebble & GGS (Great Glintstone Shard) is another example of the same.
@@Zethios brother, I’m not arguing which one is better. I already conceded the point in my last comment that you very well may be right and scouring black flame prob does more damage… That was not my point at all. What I was saying is that they don’t work the same way. Again for the last time, Black Flame is a single target spell with one bullet. Scouring Black Flame is an AoE spell with multiple bullets that’s capable of targeting multiple enemies at once. It’s also slower and doesn’t go as far. However, Scouring Black Flame has broader coverage. All im saying is that mechanically they don’t work the same way. They’re not two variations of the same spell like you said initially…
I’ve played this game through to NG+7 with almost every possible build but in still can’t stop watching challenge runs like this. It’s takes the spot of game ever made from Witcher 3 IMO
Im sittin here wondering why he didnt grab the sacred scorpion charm instead of the cerulean medallion, why have slightly more fp when you can get 20% more holy damage
@@plaguedoctor5145 i mean it does have the 10% increased damage, but your goal is to NOT get hit, so its worth investing into... also how many elden ring players use radagon's soreseal as a perma talisman? Most in my experience
Litany of Proper Death isn't actually a bad spell it's just that it really only does one thing: kill undead. It has pitiful base damage but absurdly wide area coverage, particularly for its very short casting animation. and that base damage isn't so bad when you realize it does *+500%* to Those Who Live in Death. It's not super useful in this type of challenge run, because there aren't any undead bosses on the critical path, (and area coverage is of admittedly limited use against most bosses anyways) but it can make the undead-heavy parts of farum azula a breeze to traverse, flattening whole squads of skeletons at a time. Wiuld have made deathroot hunting a bit easier though probably When Shadow of the Erdtree drops I know I'm going to be keeping this spell in mind, since SotE will probably have more undead than the base game
Deals +900% damage to undead actually. And yes, everyone who says that Litany of Proper Death is a terrible spell can't read: It was specifically designed by From Software to be only used against undead like the skeletons in catacombs and that's it.
The official rot class of incantations also includes pest threads, so it would not have been impossible. Also, lorettas mastery looks like a carian sorcery, which is just a subsect of glint stone sorcery developed by rennalas family. You can theoretically divide spells and incantations down into like 20-30 different classes, but that would just be painful
Omg omg!!! I’ve been waiting for this video! Amazing job and it was so much fun to watch. Can you maybe do one with all the weapons or something similar? Like the most powerful weapon from each magic or something. Can’t wait for the next video!
I always took it how I say it. I’ve beaten this game in multiple different ways with multiple different build, no flask (forcing healing spells I never used before) and even a level 1 run. I say I suck when I get hit by something because I have so much knowledge of the game and shouldn’t get hit (not including animation locked hits, obviously)
You did a fantastic job with this! I really enjoyed listening and watching you work. You've got a great voice for it, and it's also nice to see a turbo speedrun (even if it technically is an average of 8.25 per run 😅). Tldr; awesome work, keep it up!
Rock Sling is so good, I used it as my main until I got smart enough for Night Comet / regular Comet but it's still very useful. Especially at cheesing things from the high ground. I took down the Dragonbarrow avatar from way up the cliff. Lured him with an arrow, took a few steps back when he started blasting and yeeted rocks at him until he reset, then repeat.
27:27 says hasn’t used Flame, Fall upon them. Not even a few minutes earlier in the vid uses it to finish rennala. I did a faith/strength build and used the blasphemous blade and some fire and Beastial incants for Radabeast. Got heals the entire fight as long as I had the blue
Frenzied flame Incantation like "unindurable frenzy" actually do more damage when you aim them manually at the ground below the enemy since more flames hit (most arch upward) and the ones that don't directly hit explode on the ground for some more fire damage
Fun fact, discus can hit I believe 8 times, not just twice, since it stays in one position and spins like a sawblade for a couple seconds. Abusing enemy AI and getting all those hits in is how to do it, like when Morgott does his falling sword trick
This is an ASTOUNDING video. Really earned yourself the sub. Super looking forward to see what you do next. I'm a little surprised you never brought out the Hidden Tear for any of the more FP hungry spell schools though. Unendurable Frenzy is pretty insane with it, even after the nerfs to duration.
Kinda surprised you didn't do blood spells sure there is stuff immune to the breed proc but the spells still do decent damage on there own especially on lower new games
ALL I have been thinking about FOREVER has been reliving my fight with fire giant EVERY time alexander connected a fire upper cut I just squealed and started wailing with my powerstanced katanas and I audibly stopped holding my breath in and just made the ds1 aauuhh death sound
Hey, great video, nice spin on the magic challenge runs. You've come a long way since the Ascended playthrough when I first seen your content, well done on the growth of your channel and I'm alwasy happy to see what mad challenge you attempt next.
As a newer player (just beat base game, in DLC) this was a great watch to introduce to the spells of this game. I currently have a strength build, but the incantations look so cool I may have to respec
He should have used the cerulean tear to have infinite fp so he can hold down the meteors of astel. With that tear you can get huge damage and on big bosses it can wipe out massive chunks of their hp bars
Shame we didn't see Dragon Communion. Definitely my favorite casting type. Sad that most mods can't make changes to them (due to code restrictions) and I hope that changes someday.
Its crazy cuz when i first started i immediately gravitated towards a godskin build (cool bgm, visually cool attacks n overall Godskin fanboying) and once i got my hands on black flame... literally easy mode for the game. That was the only magic type for this video that ik without a shadow of a doubt was gonna be S. You used it in ng+7 and it still melted everything.
Great video! You went through a lot of suffering I only have 2 issues - you haven't abused double seal/staff for some spells and no spiral shard - one of the strongest spells against big enemies
jeah, the spiral would had shred through the Elden Beast for example... but you only get the spell after a "long" questline sadly, so no quick to get magic
blackflame does infact scale with the bosses hp because one time i fought the fire giant with someone and they used black flame torando and even with that 50% less fire damage black flame did wonders
Nice video. Was fully engaged for the whole hour. Elden Ring is the best game ever made IMO, but one slight criticism i guess is that despite all the spells, build variety, etc. just spamming pew pew spells turns out to be the most powerful. It honestly seems like a challenging problem to find a solution to and a perfect one probably doesnt exist but at the end of the day its still fun as hell and super satisfying to just nuke bosses.
Discus of Light is actually pretty awesome. Best FP efficiency in the game by FAR and huge range, pretty spammable, double hit is great for stunning small foes, it's overall a amazing spell for exploring and dealing with normal enemies. Only... It's amazing at everything, EXCEPT boss fights, where a stationary casting animation is kind of a problem.
So did you know that with the right build, the flame of frenzy is faster than frenzied burst, as well as at the right range can do even more dmg. Its my favorite spell type to use and ive made a couple pve builds centered around frenzy
Tip for Flame of Frenzy, since the missiles spread out in a cone, if you aim at their feet you tend to hit way more of the projectiles, especially on smaller enemies
Dragon cult incantations are my favourite and they're also the best imo. Thank God, Fromsoftware continue the trend of Lightning being powerful like in the Souls series. \[T]/
just crazy how dirty holy spells/incantations were done in this game, ng+7-8 playthroughs killing bosses much quicker than base game holy playthrough 💀
Anyone ever wonder if there are multiple erd trees?? When i see the fight with the elden beast you see all those erd tree trunks makes me think there are more than one. Imagine that
I can't get over how you didn't use wrath of gold in holy run - its holy damage - its fast - does a lot of damage - obtained in altus - you don't even need to fight anything to get it arguably the best holy spell in the game
Tip for flame fall upon them, i believe that only one of the fireballs is able to do damage to each enemy, which is a really disappointing nerf to what could've been a top 5 spell otherwise
Fun Fact: Catch Flame is actually superior compared to O Flame, due to even faster casting, lower FP cost, and higher mobility. The DPS you can get on Catch Flame is insane.
Using the Beast Claw Seal to cast the Bestial incantations with only 16 Strength is probably why they did so little damage. The Beast Claw Seal uses Strength scaling.
even with max strength min faith for spells it works out around the same if not worse to use that seal as the caster
And then there's rock sling

- its fast
- does a lot of damage
- obtained in altus
- you don't even need to fight anything to get it
arguably the best holy spell in the game

@@curtisthecactus Tank you.
Comet Glinstone Shard and Glinstone Icecrag are my favorite projectile spells.

Tbh I’m quite surprised fire giant isn’t weak to fire considering mohg is weak to bleed, lol.
20:38 did he say "forgive me marika"????
yeah, like why did he say that, cuz he says why does the tarnished needs destined death normally
Its a good thing Nights Cavalry doesnt count as boss or you wouldve failed this challenge with the very first boss you killed
