There are a total of 10 Carian Sorceries available for players. Certain Carian Sorceries can be boosted by the Carian Glintstone Staff or the Carian Glintblade Staff.

Moongrum: "Welcome to the team, starson. I am proud that I can finally see you join our ranks, rookie."
Starson: "It was all thanks to your guidance, sir."
Moongrum: "Don't be so modest, you'll do a fine job serving under the house of the moon with the rest of us."
Starson: Thank you sir! Does this mean I finally get to learn how to cast a spell that can make other things than just swords?
Moongrum: "..."
Starson: "...Are you kidding me, that's all we can do? Casting "swords" the spell?"
Moongrum: "Well that, and the sorcery that allows us to serve our queen without a moment of sleep from the moment we enter her service until we are finally granted the sweet, SWEET release of death that grants us our long-awaited rest. Assuming we aren't resurrected and live in torment as undead. Oh, and magic downpour."
Starson: "Okay, but what about Loretta? Can't she make a greatbow?"
Moongrum: "Yeah, but she refuses to share the scroll with anyone. It's her trademark, as she put it."
Starson: "Really? I saw a preceptor use it the other day to obliterate a springhare."
Moongrum: "Yeah, that's partially the reason why there's talk of her leaving our ranks. It's either that or a lawsuit.

I can't see why they split Carian Sorcery in two Just to have two specific staves. Some of FROM's decisions are just baffling.

Kinda upsetting that Faith gets way better magic mele spell. E.G. they can use thunder & lightning as a mele weapon (legit deal 2k pvp damage without buffs). It’s awe-awesome : )

Kinda upsetting that they split Carian Sword and Glintblade sorceries between two staves. There's like 4 spells between each group, and Loretta's lies outside both groups too. Why can't all of those scale off of a single Carian staff?

It states that Glintblade Staff boosts Loretta's sorceries, I'm pretty sure it does not buff those 2.

Just tested, lorettas greatbow is not boosted by either of these staffs

carian and glintblade are two separate schools that use two different staffs, not helpful.

Honestly, why not just sort by the category spells are boosted in? I think it's much less confusing that way, Loretta's isn't even a real category.

adula's moonblade is also affected by Carian Glintblade Staff too.

Why is Lorreta's GreatBow and Lorreta's Mastery is mentioned in "BOOSTING CARIAN SORCERIES" under Carian Glintblade Staff but the seperate page doesn't mention this.

Imagine using C*rian sorcery. This post was made by the Sellen gang.

at the very least lord jesus let carian,glintblade, and greatblade phalanx stun, it needs this if not damage.

Summoned Swords are cool and all, but between the longer cast time, no ability to recast, higher FP cost, and lower damage, there's really no reason to use these over Glintstone or Gravity aside from aesthetics

from what people are saying, the Carian Glintblade Staff doesnt boost Loretta's Greatbow or Loretta's Mastery and even those spell pages doesnt list that its boosted by anything. but this page says it does. id edit delete if i could

i know its clearly stated on the individual pages of the staffs and spells, but damn, breaking up the spells into 2 different staffs with such similar names is troll

Carian sorcery is split between Sword and Glintblade sorceries, sword being boosted by Carian Glintstone Staff and Glintblade is boosted by Carian Glintblade Staff. Adulas Moonblade is a Sword Sorcery as well. Someone fix this please.

Information on page about Carian Glintstone staff is wrong. Carian Glintblade and Carian Glintstone buff separate groups of spells within this school and this page should probably be split into two—Carian Sword Sorceries and Glintblade Sorceries

"Carian Glintstone Staff boosts all Carian Sorceries."
This is not true. Carian Glintstone Staff ONLY boosts Glintblade type of magic. Which is Magic Glintblade and all of the Phalanx spells.

Why does Loretta have her own category? She's clearly a former Carian Knight and we can see that her greatbow spell is used by a Carian Perceptor in-game.
