Magic plays a big part in Elden Ring, from devastating attacks to weapon buffs and healing spells. Most players will use a sorcery or incantation spell at some point in their playthrough. Elden Ring has a high level of difficulty and, for struggling players, spells are a great way to defeat many of the challenges in the game. There are two spell types in Elden Ring, sorceries and incantations, with different stats required for each type.
8 Most Overpowered Incantations In Elden Ring
Elden Ring’s faith-based spells, Incantations, have a few overpowered moves among their ranks. Here are the Incantations that trivialize the game.
Flame spells are some of the most powerful magic in the game. Players looking to create a pyromancer build or have an effective spell at the ready, the best in the game are incantations. Fire spells make up a large part of the incantations in Elden Ring, with different types of flame offering different effects. From madness-inducing frenzied flame to the hemorrhaging bloodflame or Godskin Black Flame, flame incantations can be effective tools against Elden Ring’s enemies.
10 Flame Of The Fell God
A Dangerous Delayed Attack
- Spell Type: Fire Giant Incantation
- FP Cost: 34
- Requires: Faith 41
Flame of the Fell God costs a lot of FP to cast but deals a large amount of damage to unsuspecting foes. It also requires significant points in faith. However, this effective spell has a long delay and is best used strategically.
With Flame of the Fell God, players summon a floating ball of fire, which moves toward the enemy slowly, finally exploding into a shower of flame. This isn’t a quick spell to use, but if timed right, can be a useful tool. The long delay will give the player time to perform additional attacks before the spell is finished. Players can find this spell early in the game in the Liurnia of the Lakes region, after defeating Adan, Thief of Fire in an evergaol.
9 Flame Cleanse Me
Burn Away The Poison & Rot
- Spell Type: Fire Monk Incantation
- FP Cost: 14
- Requires: Faith 12
For certain areas in the game, Flame Cleanse Me is one of the most useful spells in Elden Ring. It can make areas such as Caelid and the Lake of Rot easier to explore, as it is the most effective way of healing Scarlet Rot. With its low FP cost and low stat requirements, Flame Cleanse Me is a good spell to always have memorized.
Players will find this incantation early in the game in the Liurnia of the Lakes region. It is found on a corpse in a Fire Monk camp, southeast of the Church of Vows.
8 Bloodflame Blade
Enhance Weapons With Hemorrhaging Bloodflame
- Spell Type: Blood Incantation
- FP Cost: 20
- Requires: Faith 12
Players will find this incantation on a Teardrop Scarab near the Rose Church in Liurnia of the Lakes. The Bloodflame Blade is a useful spell to have as it buffs the player’s right-hand weapon with festering bloodflame. This effect causes burn damage to enemies as well as blood build-up when hit repeatedly. This effect will cause the enemy to hemorrhage, dealing even more damage.
Elden Ring: Most Overpowered Weapon Of Each Category, Ranked
Elden Ring contains a lot of overpowered weapons for players to discover. These are some examples from each of the main weapon categories.
The incantation is especially useful for dexterity builds, who need to inflict quick damage on enemies. The incantation lasts longer than other similar spells and is quick to cast, making it very effective in boss fights. This spell can be additionally buffed with the Fire Scorpion Charm.
7 Agheel’s Flame
Engulf Enemies In A Wave Of Fire
- Spell Type: Dragon Communion Incantation
- FP Cost: 36
- Requires: Faith 23, Arcane 15
Throughout Elden Ring, players will find a variety of dragon bosses, all using different breath attacks. Agheel is the first of these encounters players will come across very early in the game. Defeating Agheel will unlock this powerful incantation at the Cathedral of Dragon Communion.
Agheel’s Flame is the archetypical dragon attack. The player rises from the ground and breathes a torrent of fire, engulfing enemies unlucky enough to be in front of them. While this attack is powerful, it requires good timing, as the spell can be canceled if the player is hit. It also has a significant FP cost, so it is best used as an opening attack or finishing a boss on low health.
6 Black Flame
Burn Enemies In Black Fire
- Spell Type: Godskin Apostle Incantation
- FP Cost: 18
- Requires: Faith 20
With its low FP cost and quick use, Black Flame is the ideal fire spell for attacking the many enemies of Elden Ring. While not the most powerful fire spell, Black Flame deals significant damage to low-level enemies and works well as a go-to attack.
Elden Ring: Worst Weapons, Ranked
It’s best to know what weapons players should avoid in Elden Ring so that they can have a better time in the Lands Between without dying so much.
With this incantation, players throw a black-colored flaming fireball at enemies, which continues to deal fire damage for a short time after. Players will find this spell after finding the Godskin Prayerbook in Stormveil Castle and giving it to either Brother Corhyn or Miriel, Pastor of Vows. Charging this attack increases the damage and causes the ball to explode on impact, potentially killing more enemies.
5 Frenzied Burst
Sniper Enemies At Long Range
- Spell Type: Frenzied Flame Incantation
- FP Cost: 24
- Requires: Faith 22
Frenzied Burst is a powerful attack that allows the player to shoot a beam of frenzied flame directly at an enemy. While this attack causes madness build-up in both the player and the enemy, the amount is small and will not affect the player significantly. This attack is a perfect long-range spell for faith users. Players can pick enemies off from a distance without them ever realizing.
This incantation comes from the Frenzied Flame, an outer god that brings chaos and madness to the world. These unique flame spells are effective against a variety of enemies, but all inflict madness on the player. This spell is found in the Liurnia of the Lakes region, dropped by a Teardrop Scarab. It is close to the Church of Inhibition in an area inflicted with madness.
4 Black Flame Ritual
Summon A Wall Of Powerful Black Flame
- Spell Type: Godskin Apostle Incantation
- FP Cost: 30
- Requires: Faith 42
This impressive black flame incantation is very effective for groups of enemies. When surrounded, the player can summon a ring of black flame that deals burning damage to anything that passes through. While enemies inside the ring will not be affected, the spell can be cast quickly, ensuring any approaching foes will soon feel the heat.
This is an ideal incantation for the late game. Its high damage and fast cast time make it one of the best fire incantations in Elden Ring. Players will find this spell in the Mountaintop of the Giants region within the Spiritcaller Cave. Players will need to defeat the Spiritcaller Snail at the end of the area, which summons both a Godskin Apostle and a Godskin Noble.
3 Bloodboon
Rain Bloodflame On Enemies
- Spell Type: Blood Incantation
- FP Cost: 13
- Requires: Faith 14, Arcane 17
Bloodflame is an effective magic type that inflicts both flame and bleed damage on enemies. With the Bloodboon incantation, players summon the power of the Formless Mother, one of the many outer gods, and spray bloodflame on the ground. In addition to the fire damage, enemies caught in the flames will eventually hemorrhage, dealing even more damage.
This is a dangerous spell for slow-moving enemies, who will struggle to get out of the area of effect. However, this incantation is not easy to get, as it requires defeating Mohg, Lord of Blood, who is a tough boss. Defeating this enemy will reward the player with the Remembrance of the Blood Lord, which can be exchanged for Bloodboon.
2 Burn O Flame!
Burn Multiple Enemies With Powerful Flames
- Spell Type: Fire Giant Incantations
- FP Cost: 26
- Requires: Faith 27
With Burn O Flame! players place their hands on the ground and summon several pillars of fire that deal large amounts of damage. This effective spell can also knock enemies to the ground. Burn O Flame! works very well against groups of enemies. It can be cast quickly and has a good area of effect around the player.
Elden Ring: Hardest Non-Boss Enemies, Ranked
Elden Ring is notorious for challenging players in combat with a plethora of tough battles. Here are the toughest non-boss foes in the game.
In boss fights, the incantation can be very powerful, as each pillar of flame deals damage, meaning larger enemies can get double the damage. Burn O Flame! is as fun to use as it is effective, as multiple enemies are sent flying to the ground. Players can get this incantation after beating the Fire Giant and receiving the Remembrance of the Fire Giant.
1 Giantsflame Take Thee
Engulf Enemies In A Ball Of Flame
- Spell Type: Fire Giant Incantation
- FP Cost: 30
- Requires: Faith 30
This impressive fireball spell is one of the hardest-hitting incantations and maybe the best of all the flame spells in the game. Like many of the magics in Elden Ring, charging, Giantsflame Take Thee, increases the damage even more. While the FP cost is significant, this spell will quickly become a favorite against common enemies and bosses, due to its fast cast time and high damage.
To acquire this spell, players must go to the far north of the map, in the Mountaintop of the Giants region. Here, they will find the Guardians Garrison and the Giants Prayerbook. This item can be given to either Brother Corhyn or Miriel, Pastor of Vows, who will then sell the spell.
