Notes


  • This spell is just enough to get you through if you started as the Sorcerer class and should be replaced as soon as possible with Great Soul Arrow and other spells. Is extremely useful and has a good damage to # of casts ratio but does not hit hard enough to be very useful beyond the beginning of the game.
  • Soul Arrow has the fastest cast time of any Sorcery in Dark Souls 2 - ever so slightly faster than Great Soul Arrow.
