How to unlock the Wisdom of a Sage achievement in DARK SOULS: REMASTERED - Definitive Guide

External image


There are 24 Sorceries in the game. I will first list them in the order they appear in your inventory, then I'll explain how they can be obtained.



Note that Dark Bead, Dark Fog, and Dark Orb found in Oolacile Township and the Chasm of the Abyss are not required as they are from areas that were part of the original game's DLC .

19 can be purchased from NPCS

Aural Decoy: sold by Griggs for 1000 souls
Fall Control: sold by Griggs for 1500 souls

Soul Arrow: sold by Big Hat Logan for 1000 souls
Heavy Soul Arrow: sold by Big Hat Logan for 2000 souls
Magic Weapon: sold by Big Hat Logan for 3000 souls

All of these spells are offered by Big Hat Logan once he is freed from the prison cell in the Duke's Archives and relocates to the small room near the Duke's Archives bonfire. Note that some of these spells are sold by Griggs and Rickert but you have to buy all of the spells that Logan sells to advance his questline, even if you have already bough them from someone else.

Four are found on a corpse or in a chest

Remedy: found in a chest in Blighttown across a precarious tree branch path near the top of the big wheel lift system
Hush: found on a corpse in Sen's Fortress near the interior area with rolling boulders
Strong Magic Shield: found in a chest in the Duke's Archives near a respawning Channeler enemy
Great Magic Weapon: found on the chandelier in Anor Londo which must be cut down from the rafters above

One is from an NPC questline

White Dragon Breath: dropped by Big Hat Logan after he goes crazy in the Duke's Archives and relocates to the room where you originally were killed by Seath.


NPC information

Griggs of Vinheim relocates to Firelink Shrine after being freed from a locked building in the Lower Undead Berg. He will not offer to sell spells to you unless you have at least 10 Int.

Big Hat Logan relocates to Firelink Shrine after being freed from a cage in Sen's Fortress. He will not sell spells to you unless you have at least 14 (maybe 15) Int, but this requirement does not apply once he relocates to the Duke's Archives (which happens automatically once you get there yourself). He is first found in the prison section and will advance to a small room near the Duke's Archives bonfire once freed from his cell. You must buy all of his spells once he relocates to this small room, defeat Seath, then talk to him again so that he will relocate a final time to the room where you first encountered Seath.

Dusk of Oolacile is summonable near the edge of the lake in the Darkroot Basin near where the giant hydra is located. In order for her summon sign to appear, you must kill the hydra, then move across the lake and into a cavern area to defeat a golden crystal golem, freeing Dusk. Talk to her and answer "yes" when asked, at which point you can go back and summon her via her summon sign.

Note: Dusk’s summon sign disappears once you acquire the Broken Pendant from the Crystal Golem in the Duke’s Archives. After this point, you can buy her spells from Elizabeth, who is accessible after defeating the Sanctuary Garden in the Oolacile Garden.

Ingward is located atop a building full of ghosts in the New Londo ruins.

As always, refer to http://darksouls.wikidot.com/ for specific information relating to items or locations. This page gives specific information for each sorcery.

This needs an slight update because if you don't buy the ones from Dusk before a certain point her sign will disappear and won't return unless you do the DLC quest relating to her but you can buy her spells from Elizabeth in the DLC area.

OK. I didn’t realize but apparently if you get the broken pendant from the Crystal Golem in the Duke’s Archives, her summon sign disappears until after you defeat Manus. During that time, you would have to buy her spells from Elizabeth who is only accessible after defeating the Sanctuary Guardian in the (now included) DLC area. I will add a note.

Is anyone experiencing an issue with Ingward not selling Resist Curse? He has moved to Firelink Shrine but doesn't have the spell for sale. Played the game many times on 360 and never experienced this problem before.

Anyone having any issue with this not popping up when you have gathered all the spells?

By PlusATHEY on 16 Jun 2018 13:52
Yes. There are known issues with achievements not popping properly. You will likely need to recollect a spell (or two), be it in a ng+ or on a new character. That should fix it.

are there any certain spells that can cause it not to pop? Got all the spells and no pop so im wondering if it is because i have duplicates of certain spells, regardless i dont wanna collect it all again just to find one that pops ;-;

An easier way to get this achievement if it glitched for u and didn't unlock is to start a new game as a sorcerer and it should immediately pop when u spawn in

Great and thorough guide. I was also wondering if anyone has figured out which sorcery could be glitching? My last collection was Repair from Elizabeth because I had forgotten to buy it from Dusk. I will be playing NG+ but was hoping I could know what to look out for.

I had mine glitch, and had to fix it via one of the other solutions below although it still didn't work for me exactly like the solution. They said they had to make a new character and then when they got their first Sorcery it unlocked. So I made a new character, played up until I saved Griggs, and bought a Sorcery from him; nothing. So I quit to the menu, closed the game, and then turned my Xbox off by holding the power button until it turned off. Then I unplugged my Xbox's power cord for about a minute, plugged it back in, and re-launched Dark Souls. I loaded my main character, overlooked my Sorceries with this guide to ensure I did have them all, and then quit to the menu. I loaded the second character, bought another Sorcery from Griggs and then the achievement unlocked. So this may or may not help if someone is having issues with it unlocking; good luck.

I've made a google sheet checklist for Knight's Honor, Wisdom of a Sage, Bond of a Pyromancer and Prayer of a Maiden. Slight Spoilers included in the document. It comes with every item needed to get these achievements in a list along with a brief description on how to acquire the item and a link to the items wiki page on Fextralife. You'll need to save the document to your own drive before it'll allow you to start checking things off. You can find the link to it here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IBAR9dAKxKPzW5UA31Mo...

If after obtaining all Sorceries in the game and the Achievement doesn't unlock you will have to start a new character and try again. I got all the Sorceries on one character and no Achievement. I hunted down the DLC Sorceries and no Achievement. I even collected all the Sorceries again on New Game Plus and still no Achievement.

I started a new character and once I picked up one Sorcery the Achievement finally unlocked.

This worked for me, although not exactly I had to do a few extra steps so if someone has trouble still they can try this as well. So I made a new character, played up until I saved Griggs, and bought a Sorcery from him; nothing. So I quit to the menu, closed the game, and then turned my Xbox off by holding the power button until it turned off. Then I unplugged my Xbox's power cord for about a minute, plugged it back in, and re-launched Dark Souls. I loaded my main character, overlooked my Sorceries to ensure that I did actually have them all, and then quit to the menu. I loaded the second character, bought another Sorcery from Griggs and then the achievement unlocked. So this may or may not help if someone is having issues with it unlocking; good luck.

I have tried all the below methods and still didn't pop

Here is the solution and I'm 90% confident that it will work for you. The achievements "Wisdom of a sage" and "Bond of a Pyromancer" are glitched so you can use the same solution for both.

First, After getting all sorceries and Pyromancies go to quit game and start a new character

Second, Choose Pyromancer or Sorcerer

Third, start the game and DO NOT SKIP CUTSCENES it will pop after 3 seconds during the cutscene

You're welcome

Sorceries can either be purchased from certain NPCs, looted around the world or given as a reward by ranking up certain covenants. Below I will list where to get each sorcery and how to get the NPCs to sell them to you. Big thanks to Blood_Runs_Cold for compiling most of the information in here!

If you want, you can use the printable checklist from HERE made by Birr1978 to help you keep track of what you have.

--Sorceries Acquired by Looting/Rewarded--

Great Magic Weapon:
You can find this spell for free in Anor Londo. It is on the chandellier inside the church where the painting is. While walking on the narrow rafters of the church, cut the chain to the chandellier and it will drop to the floor of the church, making it obtainable.

Strong Magic Shield:
Duke's Archives. It is in a chest in one of the floors in first section of Library.

Remedy:
Blighttown. Found in a chest in the upper rear section of Blighttown.

Hush:
In Sen's Fortress, from the boulder launch room, go to the trail that leads to the Mimic (chest enemy). While turning the corner from the boulder room, look right to see a gap in the wall. Jump through and attack the snake mage with an air attack. You'll land on some wooden boards. Look around you'll see a broken wall on one side and a hallway on the other. Go down the hallway and you'll be in a cell with the Hush spell on the ground along with an armor set. (Thanks to AlejandroM for the conformation)

Alternatively you can kill the NPC Griggs of Vinhelm and he will drop it.


--Sorceries Acquired by Purchasing--

--Griggs of Vilhelm--
Griggs can first be found locked inside a room in the lower Undead Burg, near the area where dogs and thieves attack you, right before the Capra Demon boss fight.

To open his door you'll need the Residence Key, which can be purchased from the first merchant in Undead Burg for 1,000 souls. Once rescued he will go to Firelink Shrine and sell you his spells.
Some time after buying everything from him, he will leave and go to Sen's Fortress where he will become Hollow. You'll find him in the second path that leads up to the mechanism that launches the large steel balls the giant on the roof is dropping. That is where you can kill him to acquire the "Hush" spell.

When Big Hat Logan leaves the Shrine he will start selling you his spells as well.

Soul Arrow:
Griggs of Vinhelm or Big Hat Logan. Cost 1,000 souls.

Great Soul Arrow:
Griggs of Vinhelm or Big Hat Logan. Cost 6,000 souls.

Heavy Soul Arrow:
Griggs of Vinhelm or Big Hat Logan. Cost 2,000 souls.

Great Heavy Soul Arrow:
Griggs of Vinhelm or Big Hat Logan. Cost 8,000 souls.

Aural Decoy:
Griggs of Vinhelm. Cost 1,000 souls.

Fall Control:
Griggs of Vinhelm. Cost 1,500 souls.


--Big Hat Logan--
You can find Logan in Sen's Fortress, locked in a cage. The key is found by following the path beneath the merchant in Sen's Fortress, but players with a Master Key can open the cage right away. Free him and he will go to Firelink Shrine next to Griggs. He will sell stronger spells than Griggs.

When you reach The Duke's Archives, you will find Logan in a cell again. You'll find the key to it in the area with two Mimic Chests and a lot of other regular chests. Go back, free him, and you will find him in another room of the archives, where you can purchase his best spells. Once you have bought everything from him and killed Seath in Crystal Cave, return to that room where he is and talk to him. He will start to mumble and talk to himself.

After you reload the game or quit the area and come back he will be gone from that room and instead can be found in the room that Seath the Scaleless first was, however this time around he will be hollowed. Kill him to get the White Dragon Breath spell plus his hat and his catalyst.

Magic Weapon:
Griggs of Vinhelm or Big Hat Logan. Cost 3,000 souls.

Magic Shield:
Griggs of Vinhelm or Big Hat Logan. Cost 3,000 souls.

Homing Soulmass:
Big Hat Logan. Cost 20,000 souls.

Soul Spear:
Big Hat Logan. Cost 40,000 souls.

Homing Crystal Soulmass:
Big Hat Logan, after moving to the Duke's Archives. Cost 30,000 souls.

Crystal Soul Spear:
Big Hat Logan. After moving to the Duke's Archives. Cost 50,000 souls.

Crystal Magic Weapon:
Big Hat Logan. After moving to the Duke's Archives. Cost 20,000 souls.

White Dragon Breath:
Kill Big Hat Logan when he turns hollow in the Duke's Archives.


--Dusk of Oolacile--
Dusk is trapped in a yellow crystal golem in Darkroot Basin. You have to kill the Hydra first. Once the Hydra is dead, leave Darkroot Basin completely (or reload the game) and come back. Go all the way into a cave behind where the Hydra was to find the yellow golem. Kill the golem, and Dusk will be free.

Talk to her and accept to be taught by her. After that, she will disappear. To speak to her again, you must find her summon point. It's on a boulder by the water where you fought the Hydra.

Hidden Weapon:
Dusk of Oolacile. Cost 2,000 souls.

Hidden Body:
Dusk of Oolacile. Cost 2,000 souls.

Cast Light:
Dusk of Oolacile. Cost 1,000 souls.

Repair:
Dusk of Oolacile. Cost 10,000 souls.

Chameleon:
Dusk of Oolacile. Cost 3,000 souls.


--Ingward--
Ingward is the guy on the roof in the big ghost-infested building in New Londo Ruins, dressed in red. Talk to him here to buy his spell, otherwise he will go back to the Firelink Shrine after you beat the Four Kings where you can buy it.

Resist Curse:
Ingward. Cost 5,000 souls.

When you go to free Zarya Olochil, be immediately aggravated and clear the location along the shore, so that when you talk to her for the first time and she disappears, the sign of her summoning immediately appears on the shore, and there are no mobs around it (she can also get aggravated kill, the trophy will be seized).
