Dark Elf Sorcesses which one to pick that isnt fire ?

[The Hand]

which magic for spells is good OR if you have time what does each one do I never got too into magic when i play one (see profile icon for why and guess the faction I always played) and I love the Dark elves and the Cult of pleasure is a challenge for me since I never really got too into the games. Also i just don't care for fire I've played too much Vermintide 1 and 2 i don't want to see fire magic that isnt from that.

Death Hags don't cast spells. Those are the Sorceresses.

I read the wrong one tab when i was switching between the game and this discussion thanks for telling me.

BUT I have only unlocked the Sorceresses not the hags.

Death is awesome for dealing direct damage to specific units and messing with low leadership factions. Their race specific lore of Dark is great, plenty of ways to damage to debuff things. Beasts is kinda meh but has a good aoe damage spell and can summon a beasty to mess things up, has buffs and debuffs, pretty general compared to a lot of other lores. Shadow also is good for damage, can make your troops faster, slow other troops.

Thank you sounds like ill try dark and shadows first then death or beasts next

Death is my favourite. Spirit leech is great for killing lords, soulblight is awesome for crippling an enemy frontline, and the passive is delightful

Lore of Dark Magic can be pretty good when you get access to Soul Stealer which drains a ton of health.

for me i go with supreme sorceress of dark ONLY

reason being is soul stealer on a dragon is OP so any powerfull melee character "supreme sorceress on a dragon malekith and morathi" i always go dark magic simply to spam soul stealer

for any non caster lord then depends on the faction im facing

if im expecting a lot of skaven "Ie from malus darkblades campaign" then death magic is great for both spirit leech spaming the lord and doom and darkness overcast to insta-route most of there army also it stacks with malus -16 LD for some hillarius shenanigans

fire is of course a good general alternative very flexible high dps

shadows i like for when im going to war with ulthuan as shadow magic is quite good against all elves due to low hp and stat and speed debuffs

beasts is a bit more situational but still usefull its not a lore with great spells but said spells are quite cheap i view beasts magic as a "spam lore" where you can just spam spells "synergizes with lore passive" so if you like spamming spells that are decent then beastsis for you
