Magick Spirit focus. Wield the power of the Oscelda Pact. Learn about its Arcanics, Passives, and where to obtain it. This magick-focused Spirit route for the Oscelda Pact is aimed at solo play, co-op groups — not a single BiS list, but a practical loop you can adapt as you unlock weapons and runes. Arcanic timings and balance can shift between Preludes patches; confirm ranks, attunement, and recipes in-game before spending materials.
