Incantations are a great choice for a spellcasting build as they host the largest amount of spells in the game, including some interesting healing and utility spells as well as damage inflicting ones. Similar to how sorceries require a staff, you’ll need to have a Sacred Seal equipped on your left armament to be able to cast to your hearts content. It may also be worth pooling some resources into dexterity as that helps to minimise casting times. Arcane is also a factor as it can be a requirement for some incantations, and it also controls resistance to Holy damage and chances for item discovery. This means that you’ll likely want to practise levelling up both faith and mind for a successful incantation-based build. Spells: Flame, Grant Me Strength, Lightning Spear, Any other Incantations or Spells of your choosing.Incantations are drawn from your faith levels, faith dictates which level you can cast the spells, and mind equates to your FP pool.Talisman: Godfrey Icon, Shard of Alexander, Carian Filigreed Crest, Fire Scorpion Charm Or Magic Scorpion Charm.Armor: Any that allows you to med roll.


Depending on the boss and their resistance to fire or magic damage, you can switch between the Fire Scorpion Charm Or Magic Scorpion Charm. This skill with either do fire damage or magic damage depending on if you use a heavy or light attack from the stance.
