Summary

  • Night Sorceries in Elden Ring may seem unassuming, but can be world-beaters with the right setup.
  • Some Sorceries like Eternal Darkness may look cool but are ineffective in countering enemy spells.
  • Night Shard and Night Comet are impactful, fast spells that can punch above their weight in battles.

It wouldn’t be accurate to say 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Elden Ring’s Night Sorce𒆙ries are underrated since most experienced players know⛄ how dominant some of them can be. However, in keeping with their sneaky theme, these Sorceries are fairly unassuming.

As such, new players probably wouldn’t expect them to be the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:absolute world-beaters they turn out to be with the right setup. For their benefit, it’s worth looking at the strengths and weaknesses🃏 of this Sorcery type, and why the best of them are truly so great.

7 🔯 Eternal Darkness 🐎

Eternal Darkness Sorcery Elden Ring

Intelligence Requirement

35

FP Cost

25

Effect

Create a void that attracts spells

Eternal Darkness is one of several tools in Elden Ring for countering enemy spells, and it's far from the best of them. The spell doesn’t appear to work as consistently as you want it to, and even when does, sometimes the spell it pulls will hit you anyway if you’re standing too close to the void.

And of course, you have to stand near it, because otherwise, it won't pull spells away from you at all; it doesn’t move with you, either, which makes it tough to gain ground on the person throwing spells at you. There are just too many awkward things about Eternal Darkness, even if it looks cool, but if you want to test it for yourself, it's on a corpse in the Swamp Lookout Tower in central Caelid.

6 ꦡ Unseen Form

Intelligence Requirement

FP Cost

Effect

Make yourself semi-invisible

Unseen Form is a useful tool for stealthy playthroughs in both PvE and PvP, giving you some measure of invisibility꧑. Of course, the Sorcery does not make you completely disappear, so in PvP, 𓆏most players are still going to see you if they’re paying attention.

𒁏How good you can heal with only Incantations varies a lot in Elden Ring. Let's see which ones get t💞he job done more easily.

The Sorcery also doesn’t make you silent, so you’ll need something like♑ Soft Cotton if you want to be fully stealthy. Even so, if you’re aiming for a sneaky build, it’s pꦓrobably going to be one of the main components, and you can get it by finishing the Mirage Rise puzzle in Altus Plateau.

5 Unseen Blade 🅺

Unseen Blade Sorcery Elden Ring

Intelligence Requirement

FP Cost

Effect

Make your weapon invisible

As you could probably guess, Unseen Blade doesn’t have much of an effect in PvE, since computer-g🌳enera🐠ted enemies can’t see anything. As a result, the Sorcery is mostly for messing with people in PvP; it can’t be cast on weapons that aren’t buffable, so that does limit how it can be used.

However, if you use it on weapons that have exceptional range, like the Urumi or Pike, you can su꧟rprise people, and having the element of surprise in PvP can be enough to win fights. It may not be the most practically powerful Sorcerery, but it is fun, and that alone makes it worth considering; you can pick it up along with Unseen Form after finishing the puzzle required to reveal Mirage Rise in Altus Plateau.

4 🤪 Ambush Shard

Ambush Shard Sorcery Elden Ring

Intelligence Requirement

23

FP Cost

13

Effect

Fire a shard of magic from behind your enemy

There are two main use cases for Ambus🌺h Shard: getting around Shields and catching PvP opponents off-guard (although its casting animation ꧃is fairly recognizable, so that’s easier said than done). Unfortunately, while those features can be useful, the Sorcery suffers from relatively low damage.

That is largely because it counterintuitively is not buffed by the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Staff of Loss, as some of the other damage-dealing Night Sorceries are. Additionally, Shields are rarely a significant problem for spellcasters, as they only do so much against massive explosions, but if you want to tes🐠t this tricky Sorcery, head down to the ☂Weeping Peninsula, where you can find it on a corpse in the Witchbane Ruins.

3 Night Maiden’s Mist 🅺 ཧ

Night Maiden's Mist Sorcery Elden Ring

Intelligence Requirement

14

FP Cost

20

Effect

Create a silver mist that eats away at the health of those 🌳inside it (includ🦂ing the caster)

Night Maiden’s Mist is a weird spell that deals Physical damaܫge rather than Magic, making it a great option for Sorcerers struggling with Magic-resistant enemies. Additionally, its damage is largely unaffected by scaling or buffs, allowing low-level builds to take advantage of it.

May the blessing of the Fingers be upon you.

There are some problems with the Sorcery, though; namely, the fact that it creates a stationary cloud means it will only deal its maximum damage if your opponent stays in it for a long time, and as such, it's best against enemies that are either really big or don’t move all that much. It’s sold by Gowry after you’ve progressed his questline to the point that he starts offering spells.

2 𒀰 Night Shard

Night Shard Sorcery Elden Ring

Intelligence Requirement

18

FP Cost

7

Effect

Swiftly fire a semi-invisible projectile

Night Shard is one of the fastest Spells in the Lands Between, and when combined with the Staff of Loss (or better yet, two Staffs of Loss), which will buff its damagღe by 30 percent, this little Sorcery can punch way above its weight.

Additionally, enemies that would normally dodge your spells, like 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Godskin Apostles or Malenia, don’t react to it, which makes fighting them much less frustrating. It’s one of the cheapest, m😼ost unassuming spells in the Lands Between, but also one of the most impactful, and like Night Maiden’s Mist, getting it requires you to progress Gowry’s questline until you can buy it from him.

1 ꦕ 💙 Night Comet

Night Comet Sorcery Elden Ring

Intelligence Requirement

38

FP Cost

21

Effect

Fire a powerful, semi-invisible projectile

As its name implies, Night Comet is the bigger brother of Night Shard; it comes with most of the same advantages; it’s buffed by the Staff of Loss, and enemies won’t dodge it. The only tradeoff between the two is that Night Co💙met exchanges the speed and ridiculously low FP cost of Night Shard for even more damage.

That’s a deal you’ll often take, especially since N🃏ight Comet is still fairly fast and cost-effective. To get what many consider to be one of Elden Ring’s best Sorceries, head to Selia, Town of Sorcery, where you can find it hidden behind one of the barriers you can unseal by lighting the rooftop braziers.
