Although Theodorix's Magma is not the best Incantation in Elden Ring, it can be a great choice if you want something for effective AOE attacks. The dragon's powerful breath, spewing lava projectiles, can set a large area in front of the user on magma, causing damage both at the moment of the spell's eruption and upon subsequent contact with the lava. Of course, the FP and Stamina costs are relatively high, and you can't use it while jumping, but the massive damage looks quite attractive.
It would be naive to believe you can find Theodorix's Magma Incantation as a spell in a chest. Instead, you will have to visit the Cathedral of Dragon Communion after defeating the original bearer of this elemental power.

Those looking for a great spell to power up their build in Elden Ring will enjoy what Placidusax's Ruin has to offer. Here's how to get it.
Where To Find Theodorix's Magma Incantation
The only way to get Theodorix's Magma Incantation in Elden Ring is to buy it at the Cathedral of Dragon Communion in the south of the Caelid Region. This dragon spell costs two Dragon Hearts, but you must meet the prerequisite, which requires slaying a dragon before you can purchase it. More specifically, players will have to defeat the Great Wyrm Theodorix, and luckily, this is relatively easy.
To find Great Wyrm Theodorix, players must head to the northwest corner of Mountaintops of the Giants and head to the rocky gorge east of the Inner Consecrated Snowfield. This boss's rookery is south of Minor Erdtree, so it's a good idea to take some Stonesword Keys with you and unlock the Cave of the Forlorn Site of Grace along the way. It will give you a convenient Save location in case the battle doesn't go according to plan.
However, victory won't take too long once you get to Great Wyrm Theodorix. In fact, this boss is not very different from other Magma Wyrms you have encountered before. The exception is that its attacks are slightly more deadly, but the battle arena is much wider. All you need to know is that the boss's weak point is the head, but hitting the tail also does a little damage. Stay behind the boss to avoid the magmatic breath, and learn to jump in time to dodge attacks with its sword. Also, keep in mind that magical or elemental attacks are not particularly effective against this enemy. So focus your choice on attacks that deal Standard, Strike, and Pierce damage, and you'll win quickly.
After defeating Great Wyrm Theodorix, you will receive three Dragon Hearts, so you can immediately head to the Cathedral of Dragon Communion and buy the desired spell. You can find the required altar in the south of the Caelid Region. Probably, by this time, you have already defeated the Decaying Ekzykes boss north of this place. So walk a little south and buy the desired spell.

How To Use Theodorix's Magma Incantation
To use Theodorix's Magma Incantation, players must meet the minimum requirements of 21 Faith and 14 Arcane. Additionally, each use costs 45 FP and 60 Stamina, and you can only use it twice before downtime. However, by fulfilling all these requirements, you will receive a powerful spell that erupts magma projectiles and causes the ground in front of the user to be covered in lava. This spell deals massive damage, or double damage if you use it point-blank to the enemy. In addition, you can turn while using it, which allows you to cover a much larger area with lava.
