    You can beat this game with litearlly anything. I've also completed ds2 with items only run, nothing else is allowed to use for damaging/healing/buffing/status effects except items. So that also means no punching to finish off an enemy to save a consumable. It was fun because there's so many different damaging items in ds2, not as fun in other souls games.

      -miracles only
      -SL1
      -30 000 soul memory run

      -items only & no equip load (at the same time)
      -Butterfly Set only (using shield toattack sucks)
      -and, of course, no death & no bonfire

    The Northern Ritual Band rings are good. Those extra casts can be useful, say if you wanted to clear the enemies on the way to the Heides dragon mob, or any other boss. Then remove the ring once the extra spell casts the ring gives have been used, and get back the HP it takes away. Pop a lifegem and you’re ready to fight the boss.

Once you’re there, REMOVE the ring, pop a lifegem, and take on the boss. That way you don’t use up casts on the way. See what I mean? Go glass cannon through easier mobs, THEN, when fighting the boss, just be normal. But with all your normal casts.

      @@bruh27071 I just did the testing, and it confirmed what I thought. I had 7 casts of a spell without Northern Ritual Band, and 9 with it on. I used 2 casts, from 9 to 7. Then removed the ring, and I still had 7 casts. If I understood you correctly, if I have 9 with it, use 2, then remove it, I would have 5, because it uses the casts from my base number. Maybe there’s a miscommunication. But the ring works like I said. Equip ring, use up ONLY the casts it gives, then unequip it, you’ll have your normal maximum number of casts, not less.

      Sorcery was never stronger than in Dark Souls 1. I'd say it's even stronger in 1 than in Demon Souls since DeS has pretty long times between bonfires. In DS1 casting didn't cost stamina and Sorcery dealt absurd damage. LobosJr has beaten DS1 with health and stamina locked to 1 using sorcery.
      Hex school was pretty great in 2, probably the strongest caster in the game since you got all of sorcery's utility and miracle's healing, with hex damage spells and access to all damage types to varying degrees.
      The DS2 DLCs also screwed over casting a lot by giving every enemy increased elemental resistance against projectile magic.

    Not only is it possible, but DS2 is by far the best DS game for pure FTH casting. Great Lightning Spear damage isn't as high as Crystal Soul Spear/Soul Geyser for INT builds or Great Resonant Soul for hexers, but it gets many more uses at 99 ATN. FTH builds also get Heavenly thunder which is one of the best PvE AoE spells in the game that destroys bosses.

    I'm still playing Elden Ring but a miracle/pyro only run sounds like a lot of fun. I think it would be a little easier for me because since 2016, every DS2 playthrough I've done has been with the CoC always on.

    I remember I actually played with a miracle build the first time I ever played DS2. It was my first Souls game, too. I never really understood why people hated Shrine of Amana so much. I went through it in one try with a good magic shield and lightning.

    Once before in an old Majula, in the age of 2014, the power of lightning was balanced and all was good. Then came the age of 1.08, bringing with it the smiting blow of Miyazaki's mighty hand. His anger, unfathomable, at the blasphemous entertainment brought by the Faithful, he reformed them into tortured catalysts for masochism to writhe about. As such these forms persisted for all eternity serving only to ward off those with too weak of will to persist. Never forget that Faith was once a mighty power standing tall amongst sword and spell, but seek seek not on what will never be again, lest you succumb to hollow.
