Edric Fight - SLOW DOWN THE SPAM OF ADDS

For pure casters this fight is miserable. I absolutely love dodging around the attacks of the boss and even the adds to a degree, but in the second phase, a pure caster CAN NOT keep up the damage on Edric. The ghosts spawn too quickly and they are essentially endless blocks to any ranged spell. I have adapted four times and now am trying to do the fight in melee range with aoe because I can't do virtually any significant damage to the boss, because all of my spells are used up on the constant flow of adds.

This is not enjoyable at all. I don't mind the adds, but their frequency of spawning must be slowed down for ranged, caster characters. Fireballs, lighting, aether ray, all of these very rarely make contact with the boss because there is always at least four adds in the way.

Just wait for phase 3, no idea how to beat it - I tried just evading the boss one try and still died within less than 2 minutes with the boss only needing to get 2-3 attacks to get through and most of them only being avoidable while having stamina...

Yea, after I killed him twice with a pure caster - dammit here he comes again at full health and nastier than the first 2 phases.

Any sort of wind-up or delay on your spell attacks and he has already moved most of the time and does not get hit. And of course if you stand still to use a channeling skill - well....you die.

The boss fights leading up to this one were difficult in some ways but reasonable, not this one.....

For once I've tried to play a caster. And this fight is a pure bull to be honest. I'm not a person who quits easy, I've played all of the Dark Souls games but this is just not enjoyable at all. The peace of first act does not prepare you for that. Two hits kill when most of his skills have few hits and the THREE phases. -.-I just don't want to come back there, as the fight is boring and extended for no reason.
