Harnessing Cosmic Magic: An Elder Sorcerer‘s Guide to the Ultimate Comet Azur Build

Few spectacles across the Lands Between parallel witnessing the full majesty of the legendary Comet Azur unleashed without restraint. Yet as one who has spent over 500 hours engrossed in Elden Ring across repeated journeys, I‘ve gleamed the knowledge needed to fully harness this cosmic power.

Welcome dear reader, to a guide born not through mere study, but hard won mastery from endless gameplay application. Having probed the furthest heights of sorcerous potency, I present the supreme Elden Ring setup for delivering Azur‘s stellar magic – the pinnacle of mystical force.

Comet Azur‘s appeal becomes apparent the first time it turns a screen shaking boss into cinders within seconds. After buffing this iconic beam with specialized gear and the ideal Physick Flask, that tremendous damage reaches astronomical new heights.

Skeptical? Understandable for those yet unaware of these obscure synergies and strategies. Allow me then to elucidate…

The Magic Behind This Broken Build

Elden Ring grants extensive character building freedom through equipment tailoring and consumable flasks. By mixing boosts empowering Comet Azur specifically, the legendary beam enters insane damage territory.

It took hours of testing various sorcery modifiers before the ideal combination revealed itself – granting nigh infinite FP, multiplied beam strength, quicker cast speed, and stacks more multipliers through supporting gear.

Executed perfectly, the output exceeds any setup I‘ve ever engineered in past FromSoftware adventures. Having extensively played previous titles like Dark Souls 3 as a dedicated mage, nothing compares to correctly configuring Azur‘s full cosmic onslaught.

Let‘s breakdown the technical workings enabling this unmatched display of mystical prowess.

Flask of Physick: Elden Ring‘s Special Sauce

While Elden Ring‘s emphasis on customizable builds proves incredibly fun, one vital component often goes overlooked – the Flask of Wondrous Physick.

Unlike regular flask charges restoring HP/FP, the Physick enables mixing two special crystal tears to gain unique effects. It functions on a cooldown, recharging after sites of grace.

For Azur domination, these two tears prove essential:

Cerulean Hidden TearRemoves FP cost for skills for 15 seconds
Magic-Shrouding Cracked TearBoosts magic damage by 20% for 3 minutes

Cerulean Hidden Tear

These tears combined remove Azur‘s massive 40 FP per second fee while enhancing all magic damage substantially. Such an insane combo seems almost unintended!

Now the fun begins…

Stacking Multipliers Through Talismans and Gear

Comet Azur base damage already shreds enemies with 60 intelligence investment. But after consuming the Physick, another layer of modifiers from equipment and talismans apply on top.

This includes:

  • Azur Glintstone Crown – 15% Spell Damage
  • Graven-Mass Talisman – 8% Sorcery Damage
  • Magic Scorpion Charm – 12% Magic Damage
  • Godfrey Icon – 30% Charged Spell Damage

Testing on Limgrave enemies without any boosts, Azur hits for around 400 damage per tick. After consuming the Physick and equipping those four items above, the per hit damage ranges from 1200 to 1500! Absolutely astronomical considering the beam rapid fires dozens of instances per second!

Even mighty main story bosses melt in the 10-15 second Azur duration provided by the Physick. Slower enemies and those lacking magic resistance simply vaporize!

Now let‘s examine the ideal staff and supplemental spells enabling this ludicrous power.

Lusat‘s Glintstone Staff and Support Skills

While sorceries supply the firepower, staves act as the conduit…

Lusat's Glintstone Staff

Of all catalyst options, Lusat‘s Glintstone Staff best energizes Comet Azur thanks to its S-tier intelligence scaling and a uniquely extreme passive. It boosts sorcery damage by 50% at the cost of consuming 50% more FP.

Normally the additional mana drain would be extremely limiting. But thanks to the Cerulean Hidden Tear negating any FP costs, this staff directly adds a huge 50% multiplier to Azur‘s already astronomical damage!

Now supporting skills still require FP management so the backup Meteorite Staff works nicely for cheaper options like Rock Sling. I also keep a shield equipped just in case enemies attempt melee interrupts.

Some key principles to remember when wielding this phenomenal power:

  • Activate Physick right before firing Azur comet
  • Stick to the full beam duration for maximum damage
  • Maintain safe positioning to avoid interrupts
  • Use Rock Sling if enemies survive the Azur blast

Proper timing and positioning remains vital to leveraging the slow charging nature of Comet Azur. But executed well under ideal circumstances, no other build so thoroughly disintegrates foes so rapidly across the Lands Between.

Now let‘s see this ultimate cosmic power in action…

Simply astonishing right? This notorious final boss, the very Elden Lord themselves, reduced to particles in mere moments!

While extreme, this exemplifies the unmatched destruction possible through Azur. That‘s not even considering additional high-end spells like Terra Magicus for even more overkill!

Hopefully this breakdown has shed light on the incredible feat of power unlocked from synergizing Elden Ring systems with Comet Azur as the nucleus. If you still doubt the supremacy of this setup, I invite you to intimately experience it yourself in your own playthroughs!

Now awaken dear reader – awaken and unleash the cosmos!
