Notes from author
This build is meant to emulate the Greek goddess Hecate. Hecate is the goddess of magic, thus it seems fitting that the divine which should have mastery of all forms of casting.
This build trades Vitality for unmatched spell casting versatility.
It is able to use every sorcery, miracle and pyromancy besides:
1. Sunlight Spear
2. Soothing Sunlight
3. Bountiful Sunlight
Build Tips:
1. Armor
This selected armor choice is mostly for fashion but can be optimized with the Dusk Crown and some poise.
2. Weapons
The Obsidian Greatsword provides great damage, is buffable, and deals physical damage - which is great when facing enemies with high magic resistances (ex. Great Magic Barrier). The Moonlight Greatsword, Velkas Rapier, Moonlight Butterfly Horn, and Channeler's Trident all provide great damage (int scaling), situational advantages and are thematically fitting. An Enchanted Composite Bow (Occult also works, so does the Darkmoon Bow) is also quite good along with Moonlight Arrows.
3. Shields
Although not shown shields can be used to great effect on this build (either by spell slinging or poking with the butterfly horn). Great choices include the Crest Shield (Magic Defence), Dragon Crest Shield (Fire Defence), Effigy Shield (Lightning + Fire Defence) and the Silver Knight Shield (High Stability).
4. Casting
Logan Catalys for sorceries, Ascended Pyromancy flame for pyromancy and Velkas Talisman for miracles (always does more damage than normal talismans if your int is more than 5 points higher than fth). The Tin Crystallization Catalyst can be used to great effect if you are fine with 50% less casts.
5. Rings
Bellowing Dragoncrest Ring (boost sorcery and pyromancy damage), Ring of the Suns First Born (boost miracle damage), Lingering Dragoncrest Ring (boost sorcery buff duration), Wolf Ring (boost poise) and the Seance Rings which can hold single cast spells such as Power Within or Sunlight Blade and be swapped out after cast.
