In-game description

Pyromancy which improves upon Fireball.
Hurl fire orb.

The flaming fire orb explodes upon impact,
causing fire splash damage in a spectacle
which seems to symbolize the strength of
the fire-manipulating pyromancers.

Where to find

Merchant purchase

Firelink Shrine

Cost: 8000 Souls · Stock: 1

Requirements

  • Rescue Laurentius and keep him alive and at Firelink.
  1. Enter the Depths with the key from the Capra Demon. Pass the butcher's kitchen and enter the side room filled with barrels, near the second butcher.
  2. Roll through the barrel holding Laurentius instead of swinging a weapon at him. Speak to him, then return to Firelink Shrine and find him seated beside the lower ruins.
  3. Tell him you do not find pyromancy unsavory and open his shop. If he later asks where you learned advanced pyromancy, decline to tell him if you want to keep him at Firelink.
  4. Buy Fire Orb from Laurentius of the Great Swamp's spell inventory.

Merchant purchase

Blighttown swamp

Cost: 8000 Souls · Stock: 1

Requirements

  • Make Quelana appear and speak to her before killing the Bed of Chaos.
  • Keep her alive and complete purchases before she finishes her quest and departs.
  1. Upgrade a Pyromancy Flame to at least +10 with Laurentius or Eingyi. Return to the swamp before defeating the Bed of Chaos and find the woman seated against a stone pillar near the approach to Quelaag's mound.
  2. Speak to Quelana to establish the encounter and open her shop. Her appearance threshold is +10, not the +15 needed to ascend a flame.
  3. Keep Laurentius at Firelink by declining his later request for the source of your advanced pyromancy if you still need his services.
  4. Buy Fire Orb from Quelana of Izalith's spell inventory.

Notes

  • Requirements and charges: Has no Intelligence or Faith requirement. Uses 1 attunement slot and provides 6 charges per attuned copy before equipment modifiers.
  • Casting tool: Cast with a Pyromancy Flame. Its reinforcement determines Magic Adjustment; Strength, Dexterity, Intelligence and Faith do not increase its spell power. Dexterity can affect the casting speed of some offensive spells, separately from damage.
  • Shop stock: Each listed stock is the number of spell copies in that inventory, not the number of casts. Buying a second copy can provide another charge pool if you have the slots to attune it.
  • Fire projectile: A stronger fireball with a larger explosion and six base charges. Its fire damage grows with the reinforced flame's Magic Adjustment.
  • Comparison: It fits between Fireball's larger charge pool and Great Fireball's greater power. The larger explosion can help catch clustered enemies without making the projectile pass through cover.
