Comet Azur is a Sorcery in Elden Ring. Comet Azur spell creates a giant comet that deals very high damage from a great distance.

 

Legendary sorcery devised by Azur, primeval sorcerer.

Fires a tremendous comet in a torrent akin to the distant starry expanse, the place said to be the origin of glintstone.
Hold to continue releasing the sorcery's power.

When Azur glimpsed into the primeval current, he saw darkness. He was left both bewitched and fearful of the abyss.

Elden Ring Comet Azur Notes & Tips

  • Once cast, the player channels for approximately 3 seconds and fires a very long beam-like comet dealing magic damage to all enemies on the way. The player can keep channeling to continue firing the comet, draining large amount of Focus Points. Once cast, the direction of the beam cannot be adjusted.
    • End of beam is capable of flinching/knocking lesser enemies
    • Beam itself deals low stance/guard damage
  • AI acts weird, when facing this spell as they roll around sometimes even into beam  They react to casting animation, not what this animation creates, thus making Comet Azur somewhat usable against bosses that can dodge, most notably Tarnished-type enemies (but to a limited degree) 
    • There is an exception in this behaviour in form of Malenia, Blade of Miquella, as she dodges away from this spell and tries to approach the caster from a safe path.
  • This spell is channelled, not charged, and therefore does not benefit from Godfrey Icon.
  • Its damage can be boosted by 15% by wearing Azur's Glintstone Crown. This comes at the cost of a 15% increase to ALL sorcery costs.
  • Very slow casting time, that can be easily stopped.
  • Cerulean Hidden Tear allows the player to continue channeling without consuming FP, as spell has no stamina consumption outside first part of the spell.
  • This spell has the third highest Intelligence requirement of all sorceries. In exchange, it is capable of dealing massive amounts of damage from long-range to targets that stand on the comet. Due to its very high FP consumption, the player will require high levels of Mind or usage of the Cerulean Hidden Tear to make the most of this sorcery. As the beam cannot be adjusted once cast, this spell will only work against slow-moving enemies or very large ones, such as Mohg, Lord of Blood, or Erdtree Avatars.

      Never found the use for this. 99% of enemies will move just a little after being hit and the damage does nothing then.

            Mind boggling that people think this is op. Sure, it anhilates some stuff with a specific build, but that can be said about everything in the game. In fact this is countered by just moving a bit. So how are people so butthurt about this spell? I hope they never have to see dark bead, or they might spontaneously combust

                  I dont think this spell is as good as people say it is, yeah if you're using like a summon then you can obliterate a boss easy or a strong enemy that doesnt know you're there while you're casting terra magica and 300 different buffs before casting this ****, i feel like if you use this against a boss without a summon you're gonna do like 2k damage and then get smacked.

                    Imagine if all the people complaining about a slow and cumbersome spell that takes ages to cast but shreds a handful of bosses played dark souls 1 and found dark bead. They'd probably stop complaining.

                      really powerful spell. just level int and destroy all the bosses. If you find the spell and you are a caster, you beat the game.

                            my dear sweet baby fetus boy who is only one hour hold just beat his favorite shard bearer, mohg lord of blood, with just one spell (comet azur) I am so so so proud of him and as a reward I have given him 15 minutes with which he can browse the fextralife elden ring forums and discuss the game with likeminded fans! I hope nobody is going to be mean to him or criticize his methods of playing the game since he is a 1 hour old baby :)) so proud of him for beating mohg with comet azur!!

                              You didn't beat Mohg if you used this. Sorry but it's true. If you leveled int, you beat the game, along with dex, strength, faith or arcane. You beat the game if you used spirit ashes and co-op. But this? Sorry, you didn't beat Mohg.

                                Desperately needs a range buff aswell as aimability similar to crystal torrent. Afterall this is supposed to be the pinnacel of comet sorcery, but currwntly it's (outside of a few exception wherin it's busted af) just ****, imo

                                      Makes Malenia a piece of cake. Once she enters phase 2 dodge the scarlet aeonia attack and blast away as she is stuck in that position for a while.

                                        One of the most overhyped spells in ER. I feel like most people who talk about it never used and have only seen a few clips of it cheesing a few bosses. And that's about all it's good for. Like 15 or 20 bosses (so ~10% of them) will let you blast them with Comet Azur. Everything else either has too small of a hitbox to hit consistently, moves out of the beam after 2 ticks or just delivers you your Golden Order ordained oneshot as you sit there defenseless. On any encounter in which the boss is not going to hand you the win on a silver platter you're better off using Night Comet as it will actually hit the enemy and not get you killed while dealing a crapload of damage and consuming next to no FP.

                                          was it range nerfed since release? It was one of the best distance spells, not I feel like night come has more range than this...

                                            In my entire playthrough, there was exactly one situation where this spell was the best option. There's a room in Nokstella where you will be trapped with an Indy ball if you enter, and Comet Azur has those little damage ticks and good overall output to stop and kill that one in one cast. I still needed Physick and all my FP though. In every other situation, targets just move into or out of the beam, or they are one pixel too high or one inch too far away, or some imp excrement will block it, or maybe it's only scaling properly above 100 int or on NG+9, and even *if* the entire spell goes through, I think the FP and cast time would still be better invested in a chain of comets or a stack of rocks.
                                            Also, the casting animation is so flashy that you can lose sight of what your enemy does.

                                            • A question about this spell if anybody knows; as per it's description on the wiki the spell is channeled (as opposed to charged, fired, and forgotten) and with my own use of it I'd say it does tick-damage (rather than 1 instance of massive damage). So the the question then is; for the purpose of enemy resistances, does each individual tick of damage count as it's own unique instance or does the sum-total of the spell for however long the beam is impacting an enemy count as a single attack?

                                                    Jelly shield from 20% to 12.5%

                                                    Cerulean (0 FP use) from 15 sec to 10 sec

                                                    • You can still nuke mohg with this easily. its a little messy tho so i summoned my girls to distract him while i fired away. Used cracked magic tear instead of infinite fp tho.

                                                          in my experience, you can still do the comet azur cheese against DLC bosses, provided you have a summon to pull away the aggro momentarily.

                                                          but after the nerfs to terra magica and the cerulean tear, it’s now less so a start-of-fight delete button and more of a half health/phase 2 finisher.

                                                                My thoughts: it's good, but it requires 60 INT so you have to sacrifice most other stats if you want to use it earlier. It also lets you absolutely destroy everything in your path if you choose, assuming you have high FP and stamina to cast the sorcery.
                                                                TL;DR: is good but may be bad if you try to use it too early.

And even if you do, bosses can just move away making you waste a lot of time and mana. It's quite fun when you actually do pull it off though

                                                                      Overally good, 8\10, exactly what it should be. A highly-specialized 3-slot spell focused on doing only one thing and doing it well, at the price of versatility. Still kinda ass without the infinite FP tear tho. And against anything that can move to the side. And anything that is not distracted by summons\doesn't has giant openings.

                                                                                Rennala's comet azur travels 360 meters, by comparison.
                                                                                fromsoft has a habit of giving extremely short range to player magic and extremely long range to enemies.

                                                                                • Anonymous

                                                                                  Both over-rated and over-hated.

                                                                                  If the boss is slow, easily distracted by Spirit Ashes or just likes doing big dumb dramatic animations, yeah, pop Cerulean Hidden Tear and delete the poor fool. If the boss doesn't like giving you giant openings, casting this is inviting death and you'd be better off throwing a Full Moon opener and throwing a fast cast spell like Comet for the rest of the fight.

                                                                                  It's a niche spell, but it performs extremely well in that niche. Hardly the only spell you'll ever need, but not nearly as useless as some people want to pretend it is.

                                                                                  • Anonymous

But I find it pretty useful against some non-boss strong foes. The Crucible Knights at Farum Azula and Cleanrot at Haligtree are so much easier with this. No need to use hidden tear. They are usually annihilated when you have to drink blue juice.

                                                                                        • Could be wrong, but I heard this spell was nerfed? (Could be some other really strong one.. idk exactly)
                                                                                          Anyone can tell me if thats correct and if so, if its still the strongest or at least viable to use
