prompter: What is the best build for Elden Ring if I want to play as wizard.

assistant: Elden Ring has a wide verity of builds for a magic based character. However, there isn't any clear best build without a more specific kind of magic build you wish to make, as many potential types of magic builds available which may be enjoyable based on personal taste. However, I can recommend some magic based builds using the Version 1.06.

1.  Mage: This beginner build focuses on casting spells from afar with magic spells. Starting with the class of Astrologer and the starting item of a Golden Seed for an additional flask at the start of the game. Your primary stats are Intelligence for your spells and the Mind for additional FP to cast your spells. For your secondary stats Vigor is important to survive damage and Endurance to increase your equip load for heavier armor. Focus most of your flasks on FP with one or two HP flasks. Any staff should be fine for this beginner build along with any armor you are able to equip. For your spells equip Glintstone Pebble, Glintstone Arc, Great Glintstone Shard, Carian Slicer, and Carian Piercer.

2.  Spell-Blade: This build is focused mainly on melee combat and using spells to deal damage close up. Starting with the class of Prisoner and the starting item of a Golden Seed. Your primary stats are Intelligence and Vigor. Your secondary stats are Dexterity to allow you to wield dexterity-based weapons, and Mind. Suggested weapons are the Demi-Human Queen's Staff and a Estoc or Rapier. Your armor should ideally raise your Intelligence stat, but otherwise wear any armor you wish. An Ash of War Skill that can be put on your weapon is Impaling Thrust if you wish. For your spells equip Scholar's Armament, Glintstone Pebble and Carian Slicer.

3. Death-Knight: This build mainly utilizes the Sword of Night and Flame, along with death sorceries. This build can work with any class; however, I still recommend starting with a Golden Seed. Your primary stats are Intelligence. Your secondary stats are Vigor and Mind. This build is highly focused on the Sword of Night and Flame for your main armament, along with the Carian Regal Scepter and Frenzied Flame Seal. Any armor set is fine to use however I suggest using the Night's Cavalry Helm, Night's Cavalry Armor, Lionel's Greaves, and Lionel's Gauntlets. Talismans for this build are the Magic Scorpion Charm, Great-Jar's Arsenal, Assassin's Cerulean Dagger and Shard of Alexander. For your spells equip Rancor, Ancient Death Rancor, Golden Vow, and Terra Magica.

assistant: To make a wizard build in Elden Ring, the stats you will want to prioritize are Intelligence, Mind, Vigor and a little bit of Dexterity.

-Intelligence is critical, as the equipment you will use, as well as many of the spells scale off of this stat.
-Mind is also important as it directly correlates to the amount of FP you have, which influences the spells you can cast and may prevent you from casting certain spells if your FP is insufficient.
-Vigor is especially important here as it is to any build, as most of your stat points are going into attack traits that results in a lower endurance stat which means you won't be able to offset incoming damage with heavier armor.

Additionally, it is recommended that you pick the Astrologer as your starting class, as it gives you higher Mind and Intelligence stats off the starting gate.

assistant: As Elden Ring has not been released yet, it is difficult to provide a definitive answer to your question. However, based on the information that has been released so far, it is likely that a wizard build would focus on intelligence and magic-based abilities.

In terms of character creation, you may want to choose a class that specializes in magic, such as a sorcerer or wizard. You may also want to focus on leveling up your intelligence stat to increase your spellcasting abilities.

In terms of equipment, you may want to look for items that boost your magic damage or increase your spellcasting speed. You may also want to consider equipping items that increase your mana pool, as this will allow you to cast more spells before needing to rest.
