Pyromancers are the jack of all trades school of casters in the world ofDark Souls.
They use flame to both harm targets and buff themselves.
Buffs, damaging mists, and flaming orbs are all useful in some capacity.
With that said, some spells are more useful thanks to more common circumstances or higher stats.
Instead of stealing Humanity like inthe firstDark Souls, you instead cause a fiery explosion when the spell ends.
This can one-shot players if you have enough buffs active and their fire resistance is low enough.
It has little use in PvE but tons of potential in PvP engagements.
Sacred Flame can be obtained past Knight Slayer Tsorig in the Smouldering Lake demon ruins.
14Toxic Mist
Toxic Mist is a fantastic zoning option while invading or in any PvP activity.
This pyromancy is best kept unslotted in PvE, however.
Enemies that stand inside of the mist have their toxin meter quickly fill up.
When it’s full, the enemy will be inflicted with a strong damage-over-time debuff for around a minute.
This forces the player to either cleanse the toxin or face on with a depleting health pool.
Either way, it’s a great way to give yourself some breathing roomduring an invasion.
When Seething Chaos is cast, it will deploy a mine that needs four seconds to charge.
Once four seconds pass, the mine will release a massive explosion.
This can be incredibly strong when paired with Warmth in PvP or other AoE spells in PvE.
Transpose the Soul of the Demon Prince to learn this pyromancy.
12Carthus Beacon
Carthus Beacon is a great utility spell for pyromancers to run in their loadout.
When active, it will grant a scaling damage buff on consecutive attacks.
It only lasts for 30 seconds, a short period in aSoulsgame.
Time it right before you enter an attack frenzy to see the largest benefit.
This can be exceptional forfighting bosses with low poisesuch as the Abyss Watchers.
Cornyx can teach Carthus Beacon to you if you give him the Carthus Pyromancy Tome.
you could obtain Great Combustion from Cornyx of the Great Swamp for 3,000 Souls.
10Black Fire Orb
Lobbing fireballs at targets is fun in nearly every game.
Compared to Fire Orb, this pyromancy deals dark damage instead of fire.
That might sound inconsequential, but many enemies in Dark Souls 3 have low dark resistance compared to fire.
Players can purchase this spell after giving Karla the Grave Warden Pyromancy Tome.
9Fire Whip
Fire Whip might be one of the most underrated pyromancies in Dark Souls 3.
Use Fire Whip as an opener and you will not be disappointed.
Obtain this pyromancy from Karla after giving her the Quelana Pyromancy Tome.
That is why Warmth is such a solid pyromancy.
Warmth places a radial healing field that grants 35HP a second while you are nearby.
It lasts for a whole minute, granting ample health if you’re able to stay near it.
Enemies can also benefit from this pyromancy.
Warmth is rewarded after offering 30 Vertebra Shackles to the Mound-Makers covenant.
Charmed targets will immediately drop aggro from you and focus on fighting nearby targets.
This can include player invaders to shake up combat.
This can also be used as a cheap way of getting backstabs on aggressive enemies.
The Quelana Pyromancy Tome must be given to Karla first before you might learn this pyromancy.
Boulder Heave is a strange pyromancy that will fire a heavy boulder at wherever you’re looking.
you’re able to obtain Boulder Heave by transposing the Soul of a Stray Demon.
