Best magic for weapon only build?

My guy, ice can’t freeze without another magic and ash is only gonna freeze when we get ultimate arts or 2nd magics. Both of them remove less status effects than a weapon. Also melting is better than bleed, what don’t you get about that? You can also reapply bleed while they’re melting.

Also you can charge/jump out of freeze and petrified in .1 seconds.

Literally all that matters when choosing a magic when going weapons is what status effects it clears. Nothing else.

Snow or Magma are your best bets.

magics that deal more dmg to bleeding targets are also a good option

But why would you choose a magic that synergizes with bleed when you could go 100% with weapons and only use magic defensively?

I mean, Ice is a fair choice but Magma would always be best to use alongside weapons. It’s basically made for that.

is a non invested magma blast’s melting more potent than the bleed of lets say a strong axe with 68 strength ( 7 bleed)? just wanna know

I get that but using only weapons and no spells just doesnt work in the meta we have rn. But i do agree that magma is a really good choice for weapon mains, the extra dmg to bleeding targets and the status clearing is really good

yes, while bleed boosted.

oh ye, thx for elaborating

Ya bro, not like I said this earlier.

Thats really cool that you said it earlier congrats
