Spells, How do?

[claymore]

just strated the game and have no idea how spells work. is blast an actual spell or do I find them. Do spells work diagnoly or only vertical?

When you put points into your character during the level up process, you should notice little pips that light up telling you that you got new "abilities". With 50 points into Blast, you'll get the ability to blast your enemies with magic from range. It has a pretty long range, no directional requirements, but there are line of sight and obstruction requirements: meaning you can't blast what you cannot see, and if an enemy is too close, you won't be able to do it.

It's used the same way you normally attack, so don't equip a bow if you want your character to use magic on enemies within a range of 5, since physical attacks have priority over magic attack until you get to 2000 points in blast (then it's the other way round).

There's a fundaments shrine fairly early in the game that'll teach you how magic veins (or commonly known as elements) work.

Thanks, so you can get blast with 50 points! No wonder I never saw it. Thanks a million

I did't see any. even the guides offer very little on the basics.

The tutotial's giving me some information, but I was super tired last night and died twice from fumbling the interface. Gonna try again today.
