Fire Giant incantations

One of the incantations that draws directly from the power of the Fire Giants.

Hurls a massive ball of raging fire.

Charging enhances potency and causes the ball of fire to explode.

There is no record of this incantation in common prayerbooks. Only a select few prelates know of its existence.

Top of Guardians' Garrison, then Church of Vows

Mountaintops of the Giants

Starting Site of Grace: Whiteridge Road

Before you go

• Reach the Mountaintops of the Giants after defeating Morgott and receiving the Rold Medallion.

1. Reach the Mountaintops through the Grand Lift of Rold, then follow the main route to Whiteridge Road and Guardians' Garrison.
2. Enter the fort and find the ladder leading to the upper level. Watch for the monks and guardians while climbing through the courtyard.
3. Past the first hostile guardian above, find the broken section of the western wall. Use that gap to step onto the wooden scaffolding outside.
4. Follow the walkway around the fort and climb to the upper landing, where Chief Guardian Arghanthy guards the next tower.
5. Deal with Arghanthy, enter the tower he was guarding and climb its ladder.
6. Open the chest on the top landing for Giant's Prayerbook.
7. Return to Liurnia's eastern shore. From the Artist's Shack, follow the road north and take the uphill branch to Church of Vows.
8. Speak to Miriel, the large turtle inside the ruined church, and give him Giant's Prayerbook. Choose his purchase menu and buy Giantsflame Take Thee for 13,000 runes.
9. Brother Corhyn can also receive the book at his current quest location. Handing it to one teacher does not open the same stock at the other, and the spell must still be purchased.

Notes

• Requires 30 Faith, two memory slots and 30 FP. It throws one large Fire projectile that explodes on impact.
• The uncharged fireball already explodes. Charging increases both damage and the size of the blast rather than adding an explosion to an otherwise harmless impact.
• Attack power rises from 325% to 389% of incantation scaling before defenses, and the blast radius grows from 2.5 to 3.5 meters. The FP cost stays 30, while charging uses more stamina.
• The fully charged cast benefits from Godfrey Icon. Its charged blast can knock down susceptible enemies, but that is separate from breaking a boss's stance.
• The projectile follows an arc. For a distant target, releasing lock-on and aiming above it can give the fireball room to travel instead of hitting the ground short.
• Use the blast to catch a group or an enemy beside the impact point. Nearby walls and objects can intercept the projectile before it reaches your intended target.
• Costs 13,000 runes after handing Giant's Prayerbook to Miriel or Brother Corhyn. You can obtain the book before fighting Fire Giant.
• Giant's Seal increases this spell's damage by 20% while held in an active hand. Two active copies give 44% together. You can cast with a different seal while holding Giant's Seal in the other hand.
• Fire Scorpion Charm, Flame-Shrouding Cracked Tear and Flame, Grant Me Strength can improve its Fire damage. The damage still depends on your casting seal and attributes; having the required Faith only lets you cast it.
• Fire hits can clear an enemy's active Frostbite. That lets you build Frostbite again, but also removes its damage-taken penalty until the next proc.
