Shattering Crystal | Elden Ring Wiki

underrated, int equivalent to pest threads for giant enemies along with shard spiral

Accidentally one shot a dude in full bull goats with my pure spell build, got hatemail for it when they ran right into it while I was charging it

Submit

underrated spell tbh, its especially good at bursting down large enemies like Ulcerated Tree Spirits, Fire Giant, etc, and very good at crowd control. the damage is good too

Submit

crystal magic could cause physical damage instead of magic damage

Submit

Too slow

Submit

I miss Dark Bead from Dark Souls 1
This spell is a bit slow and doesn't do enough damage, even at a very close range

Submit

FROM should’ve just made these cold sorceries, but too bad Faith has by far the coolest and strongest cold attacks :(

Submit

Perfect for a Walter White meth lord build

*Loads magical shotgun with malicious intent*

Submit

This spell is fantastic for blowing skull barnacles off mausoleums.

Submit

This thing destroyed the Fire Giant when fired at his wonky leg from a short distance.

Submit

Magic shotgun. Looks cool and great damage for low FP cost
tho there seems to be almost 0 poise damage as it doesn't interrupt even knight enemies and 5 fully charged ones doesn't break omen enemy posture

Submit

Good god does this thing do damage at close range and sometimes long range if the outer gods will it. for real I have had times where for no reason at all a fully charged blast just obliterates someone who is clearly out of its intended range.

Submit

Magic Shotgun! BAM!

Submit

I like using this as an alternative to carian piercer to spice up my pure sorcerer, it has less range but the potential for massive burst damage when paired with the crystal staff and godfrey icon, plus it’s just a nice change visually. Probably the least useless of the crystalian sorceries, here’s hoping they all get a buff in the near future

1660 - Shattering Crystal
1106 - Crystal Burst

50% more damage when using Crystal Staff.

Tested against Basilisks in Auriza Hero's Grave.

Submit

With crystal staff this becomes really powerful at close range, but the fp cost is too high in my opinion

Submit

Is it me or does this ignore shield blocks?

Submit

Great for catching the maidenless who only know how to spam jumping attacks.

Submit

i find this spell to be a mixed bag.... the potential cor utter greatness is there.... charged damage at point blank is MASSIVE... if it has more poise damage i feel it would be in a lot more sorcerers arsenals as more than just a less good bestial sling crippled pvp finisher move

Submit

Shotgun

Submit

As a first time mage I love getting on enemy's face and fully charge it as they recover from heavy attacks. The damage is really really good but the fp consumption is high. I would say it fits very well into a battlemage build but honestly isn't really as good as comet

Submit

this is the worst pve spell pretty easily

Submit

If you point the camera up , they make really pretty celebratory fireworks during co-op.

Submit

the free aim potential is there. try shooting at a downward angle to tighten the cone

Submit

Really good as a roll catch in PVP to finish with surprising range but not really worth using outside of this.

Submit

Very good for roll catching

Submit

Much better than using god awful "comet' and other slow high cost spells with no range. This spell works best on big targets plus it's decently fast.

Submit

um more info please like tf

Submit

Great finisher spell for a panicking opponent in PvP, charging it up will throw off their timing if you're lucky. Don't rely on it too much, but the damage when fully charged is also incredibly high.

Submit

Love to use this spell for large targets as this spell shotguns and does huge amounts of damage, especially if you charge it before.
