When combined with Frostbite, which reduces Resistance by a further 20%, Ranni’s Dark Moon is a staggeringly powerful debuff and should be your opener when fighting anything beefy. Not only does this spell deal incredible damage, but it absorbs hostile spells, has amazing tracking, and decreases enemy Magic Resistance by 10 percent. The beating heart of this build is Frost magic, and Ranni’s Darkmoon is what will fuel this build and bring it to full power. Either wear the heaviest kit you can whilst Medium Rolling or aim for the Light Roll. Remember that Marika’s Soreseal increases all damage taken by 15 percent. This is the biggest drawback to this build, so get ready to dodge. Armorĭue to the lack of Endurance, you will be forced to wear pretty light armor.

This, combined with Terra Magicka, will buff your Ancient Death Rancor and Loretta’s Mastery, as well as any other charged spells. Your final Talisman should be Godfrey’s Icon, which increases the damage of all charged spells. Combo this with Stargazer Heirloom and Two-Fingers Heirloom to add +5 to Intelligence and Faith. For this, you will want to equip Marika’s Sorseal for a +5 to all your Magic-based stats. You want to boost your Intelligence, Faith, and damage.

Talismans are pretty simple for this build. This buff is not to be underestimated, and you should start every encounter by casting this first. It places a rune on the ground, and as long as you are standing on this rune, all your Magic damage is increased by 35%.
