The Court Sorc staff does greater flat dmg, however if buffed, the Crystal staff does more.

There's a trick to this actually. Left hand the crystal sage's staff, use the weapon art on it, and with another sorcery tool in your right hand cast. This will outdamage the scholar candlestick+ courtsorc staff combo

1 more thing spells retain their damage from buffs once they are fired. In other words you could use the first trick with a left handed crystal stafc to buff the court sorc staff in you right hand

Then fire a crystal soul spear from the right hand staff and quickswap your left hand to scholsr's candlestick for even more damage the moment the soul spear lands. To take this example to its logical extremes

Power within *measure the amount of damage it does so it barely leaves you alive towards the end of its duration.

Take out your crystal staff

Buff with its skill

In right hand use projectile spell from court sorc staff

As soon as the spell is cast swap left and right hand with two morion blades.

Assuming your ring setup is young dragon + bellowing dragon make room for red tearstone and you have an incredible number of positive damage multipliers applied to a single attack

I miss DS2, those combos were awesome. Unfortunately in DS3 PVP due to the fast speed and rolling sorcery is quite useless

This is still possible in an invasion format with the obscuring ring and summoned "satellites" such as soul mass or affinity.

Everything is possible but most likely even a newbie will escape all that preparation and punish the mage badly with his sword. The magic takes prep time which the fast nature of the game puts them at disadvantage. In DS2 magic and miracles were much more deadly

It's almost like you're trying to say this is neither optimal nor fun to do.

Well sure it's not that amazing

Oh sure it's not that fun either ... wait a minute?!

It sounds fun but is it going to be fun if you get slaughtered by a short sword ?

But what if I tell you, that you can use both?
If you take Sage's Crystal Staff in your left hand and Court Sorcerer Staff in your right, then use crystal staff's weapon art, whooosh... and your court staff also is buffed! You won't see it visually, but the damage will be increased for same amount as crystal sage staff would!

Any better staff in DLCs ?
