Rock Sling Effects

Elden Ring - Good Early Game Spell
Rock Sling is a sorcery spell that allows the caster to pull clumps of rock from the earth and send them flying towards their enemies and can be cast while in motion. It is one of the best spells to have early in the game as it deals a good amount of damage, has a high chance to stagger enemies, and is relatively easy to obtain.

It also does not require a lot of points in your intelligence stat, making it very accessible to use early in the game. However, the spell takes a while to cast. Distractions such as spirit ashes or a co-op friend are recommended when using this spell to avoid interruption.

Rock Sling is best used against huge opponents as you'll have an easier time hitting all 3 of your rocks, maximizing your damage and giving you a high chance to them stagger as a result.

It's best to position yourself up on a slope whenever you're using Rock Sling so that it can travel a further distance away from your intended target.
