In-game description
Sorcery of the servants of Death.
Summons a group of Those Lost in Death.
Three skeletons will appear some distance from the caster and attack foes before disappearing.
The dead have long been left to wander; what they need is leadership.
Where to find
Wyndham Ruins
Altus Plateau
Starting Site of Grace: Erdtree-Gazing Hill
- From Erdtree-Gazing Hill, ride north up the slope into Wyndham Ruins, the flooded ruins above the grace.
- Find and defeat the Tibia Mariner in the ruins. The reward includes Tibia's Summons.
- Attack the boatman and follow him when he teleports around the ruins. The giant spectral skeleton and smaller skeletons are his attacks and summons, rather than the enemy that awards the spell.
- Defeat the Mariner to receive Tibia's Summons and a Deathroot. This is the Altus encounter, not the earlier Mariners in Summonwater Village or eastern Liurnia. Wyndham Catacombs is a separate dungeon and does not need to be cleared.
Notes
- Requires 28 Intelligence, 20 Faith and one memory slot and costs 17 FP. Cast it with a glintstone staff. The summoned attacks deal magic damage despite looking like physical skeleton weapons.
- Three skeletons appear around the selected target, attack and disappear. Lock onto the enemy before casting so their appearance is placed around the intended target rather than an empty area ahead.
- There is a delay before the attacks land, and the skeletons do not chase a target that has already moved away. It works better against an enemy occupied with a long attack or another character than a fast opponent running straight at you.
- These are temporary spell attacks, not Spirit Ash companions. You do not need a rebirth monument or Spirit Calling Bell, and the skeletons do not remain to fight, draw attention or revive after the attack.
- The spell cannot be charged, so Godfrey Icon does not add damage. Sorcery and magic-damage bonuses apply instead; Shard of Alexander is for weapon skills.
- Prince of Death's Staff gives a 10% damage bonus. You can hold it active in the other hand while a different staff casts, and two copies multiply to 21%. Only the staff doing the casting supplies sorcery scaling.
- Meeting both spell requirements does not force every staff to scale with both attributes. An Intelligence staff still gets its casting strength from Intelligence, while Prince of Death's Staff uses Intelligence and Faith. Choose the casting staff around the attributes you have invested in.
- The Tibia Mariner in Wyndham Ruins awards the spell automatically on defeat. The nearby catacomb, the giant spectral skeleton and the Mariners in other regions are separate encounters.
