Sorcery or Pyromancy in Dark souls Remasterd

[RönsprudellLeichtundFruschtig]

I just want to know which one is more viable and if there are any early spells or pyromancies you can get

[EASY PETE]

Spells!!!!

ITS NOT LEVIOSA ITS LEVIOOOSSSAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHGH........

[kyuketsuki★]

Go for both. Pyromancies doesn't scale with stats, you can get them too.

k thx

Well the fun thing about everything is that in DS1 everything is all pretty equally viable.

[Rapax/希狐]

Sorcery is good for twinks, since it is exempt from the weapon matchmaking...
But you get very generally useful pyromancies very early in the game, while the early sorceries are crap without high int. The really brutal sorceries you won't get before getting weapon rank 10.

[KingKuma]

Pyromancy is good because the damage only scales with if you've reinforced, then ascended your pyromancy flame! You can do strength builds or dex builds and still reinforce your pyromancy flame for intense damage. Depending on what SL Meta you're going for, Sorcery requires INT scaling. So unless you're 125+ you're gonna be a strict sorceror with a glass cannon aspect.

SOURCERY > PYRO

Reason 1: OP DLC Spells
Reason 2: Homing Soulmass
Reason 3: Homing Crystal Soulmass
Reason 4: Magic Weapon
Reason 5: Moonlight Greatsword

Pyromance is just not AS good.

Hah. You've never been hit with a great combustion stagger combo, have you? Pyro is great. Too many Sorcery spells are easy to dodge. But it really depends on your play style.

I think he is talking about PvE. At least, that's my list. PvE.

Though I still think Sorceries outclass Pyro in PvP ....

Pyro for close to mid range, Sorc for any range.

Pyro also ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ destroys poise with black flame and it requires next to no stat investment, so there's something to stop the endless tide of giant dad wannabes.

[Singrave]

Play both.
I play 2 characters, DEX Pyro and STR pyro.
Going to start Sorc, but i still remember how boring it was in PTDE.

I hear good things about targeting etc being properly tuned now. Nothing stupid or excessive but yeah, that should at least help.
