Stat Investment for Spellcasting and Ashes of War
While Dexterity and Endurance are your core stats, investing modestly in Faith or Intelligence (depending on the spells chosen) can unlock powerful utility spells without compromising mobility.

Aim for 10–15 points in the magic stat relevant to your spells.

Boost Endurance to maintain equip load for armor and Ashes of War weapons.

Balance Vigor to survive hits when dodging isn’t enough.

Practical Gameplay Tips
Timing and Resource Management
Use buffs like Flame, Grant Me Strength before engaging for maximum effect.

Time your Bloodhound’s Step carefully to avoid predictable dodging—mix it up to confuse foes.

Manage FP (Focus Points) wisely; heavy spellcasting can drain FP quickly, so balance attacks and spells.

Positioning with Spells and Ashes
Use stealth spells to control engagement range.

Combine teleportation Ashes with quick attacks for hit-and-run tactics.

Control crowds with AoE elemental spells, then close in with elden ring items buy katana combos.
