In-game description

Pyromancy which improves upon Combustion.
Create powerful, giant flame in hand.

Great Combustion creates a powerful flame,
but many sorcerers mock the simplicity of
this spell.

Where to find

Merchant purchase

Blighttown swamp

Cost: 5000 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.

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.
Speak to Quelana to establish the encounter and open her shop. Her appearance threshold is +10, not the +15 needed to ascend a flame.
Keep Laurentius at Firelink by declining his later request for the source of your advanced pyromancy if you still need his services.
Buy Great Combustion from Quelana of Izalith's spell inventory.

Notes

Requirements and charges: Has no Intelligence or Faith requirement. Uses 1 attunement slot and provides 8 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.
Close flame: A stronger close-range burst than Combustion, with eight base uses and a slightly larger contact area.
Fire defense: Its damage is fire. Black Flame adds a physical component instead, so the better result depends on the target's defenses and whether you need to pressure a guard.
