How to Use Vyke's Dragonbolt

Only Use if Benefiting from Equip Load Increase

Elden Ring - Only Use if Benefiting from Equip Load Increase
Electrify Armament does the same thing as Vyke's Dragonbolt, except Vyke's Dragonbolt increases equip load by a small amount. If you are not benefitting from this equip load increase, it's better to cast Electrify Armament instead.

Use Against Bosses Weak to Lightning

Elden Ring - Use Against Bosses Weak to Lightning
Ancient Hero of Zamor and Bloodhound Knight Darriwil in particular are weak to Lightning and would go down faster with a Lightning-imbued weapon.

Do Not Use Against Lightning-Users

Elden Ring - Do Not Use Against Lightning-Users
This spell decreases your lightning damage negation, so do not use this spell in areas with lightning users, like Leyndell, Royal Capital, and Crumbling Farum Azula.
