How to Use Battlemage Hugues Ashes

A Versatile and Tanky Spirit Ash

Battle Mage Hugues uses the same attacks and spells as his boss version, which makes him a very versatile summon in the early to mid game thanks to his varied moveset. Hugues with bash enemies with hus club or Gavel of Haima and can attack enemies and boss farther away with his Cannon of Haima spell.

Use Against Bosses Weak to Magic

Battle Mage Hugues sorcery-focused attacks make him very useful against bosses weak to magic such as the Demi-Human Chief and Decaying Ekzykes.

Most mid to late-game bosses such as the Fell Twins and the Fire Giant also lack resistance against magic, which means Hugues Haima spells can deal a lot of damage if its fully upgraded.

Use Against Slower Bosses

Battle Mage Hugues is one of the slower spirit ashes and unlike the Banished Knights Oleg and Engvall, he lacks any move that can close the distance between a boss. As a result, he struggles against faster bosses such as Malenia, Blade of Miquella and Maliketh, the Black Blade.

Hugues is best used against slow bosses such as the aformentioned Fell Twins and Fire Giant, as well as larger bosses like Ancient Dragon Lansseax. While the Ancient Dragon isn't weak to magic, her large size means Hugues' Gavel and Cannon of Haima always has a target to hit.
