Elden Ring: What are Magma Sorceries and where to find them

Fire is a classic RPG spell, and Elden Ring's Magma Sorceries are keeping the tradition alive. The Magma Sorceries are one of the few spell types in Elden Ring that require and scale off of both Faith and Intelligence and are based on volcanic fire. Magma Sorceries aren't offered by any merchants in the game, and the Gelmir Glintstone Staff boosts their effectiveness. Gelmr's Fury, for example, draws magma from Mt. Gelmir and spreads it across the ground, dealing AoE damage to nearby opponents. Aside from the Intelligence and Faith requirements, potential Gelmir's Fury wielders must send Resursant Knight Bernahl's letter to Bernahl himself at the Volcano Manor.

Magma Shot is the next Sorcery encountered in Volcano Manor. Magma Shot is a fire projectile sorcery that discharges a giant wad of hot magma towards a target, then bursts and spreads its liquid contents across the ground, lingering and causing damage. Apart from requiring 19 Intelligence and 10 Faith to cast, Tanith's first assassination in Volcano Manor is the only way to earn the Magma Shot Sorcery.

Roiling Magma is the closest thing Elden Ring has to a bomb or an explosion spell. Casters of Roiling Magma will get to see a clump of magma roll onto the ground, erupt, and leave oozing puddles of magma that chip away at opponents. Players must also locate the Hermit's Shack on Mt. Gelmir, in addition to needing 21 Intelligence and 12 Faith. Charging also lengthens the time between explosions.

Rykard's Rancor is the last but surely not least. Rykard's Rancor generates fiery skulls that explode quickly after tearing them from the earth, similar to the Rancor spells in the Death Sorceries. Potential Rykard's Rancor casters will need to battle Rykard the Lord of Blasphemy himself at Mt. Gelmer in order to receive the Remembrance of the Blasphemous, which they will then offer to Enia at the Roundtable Hold with 40 and 18 Faith.
