| Anfebious said: It's a drop from the Shrine of Amana? Perfect then because I just reached that point today! I will get that one and do as you said, my sorceries need a little bit more oomph! I never used hexes though because you need to have faith for those ones right? I figured that it was useless to level up that stat. It seems I was wrong I have lots of bonfire ahestetics, but I never used them... I guess I know what do with them now! |

The staff is a random drop from the casters, it might take a few passes to get it. I got another one while trying for twinkling titanite with bonfire aesthetic at the 2nd bonfire. That was a bit more of a challenge than I expected with a couple extra enemies at the bottleneck.
Hexes use both faith and int, I mostly use the standard dark orb which doesn't need a lot of faith though. All the higher level spells either use up souls or are aoe which isn't very useful if you can't take a beating. It failed me again just now in undead crypt at a devious ambush. I tried to repel it with profound still (stops spell casting), scraps of life combined with dark storm. (dark version of firestorm and soul vortex). Should work in theory, scraps of life should knock them down, and darkstorm does some nice damage. Looks awesome, however every time I ended up stabbed to death by the time I could move again. Better solution, run into a side tunnel and pick them off as they follow.
