Elden Ring: How to Get and Cast Incantations

gamerant.com:

Incantations in Elden Ring vary much more than Miracles in previous FromSoftware games. Before, Faith-based spells were almost entirely restricted to healing, buffs, and dealing damage to Undead specifically. In Elden Ring Incantations function almost like a combination of Miracles and Pyromancies from Dark Souls 3, with even more variety thrown in there on top.

Being able to cast Incantations not only increases the amount of self-healing available to a character, but it also vastly increases your options in combat, exploration, and beyond. To be able to cast Incantations in the first place, though, players need to either choose a Class geared for it or progress far enough through the game to meet the Incantation merchant and acquire a Seal.

There are two classes in Elden Ring that start the game with the ability to cast Incantations, though their options are relatively limited. The Prophet starts with the Heal incantation, which heals the caster and nearby allies for a mid-size amount of HP, as well as Catch Flame, which creates a quick blast of flame at point-blank range.

The Confessor, on the other hand, starts with Urgent Heal, which only heals the caster for a pretty small amount of HP, and Assassin's Approach, which silences movement and reduces fall damage. Assassin's Approach, a spell that is most obviously suited for Stealth playstyles, is an example of how different Incantations are to Miracles from previous FromSoftware games.

Once the player has made it to Roundtable Hold, a merchant becomes available to purchase additional Incantations from. Brother Corhyn can be found in the room with the Table of Lost Grace – look for the NPC who looks almost exactly like the default Prophet
