The Rock Blaster is a Glintstone sorcery in Elden Ring. It is found in Caelid, around the middle of a run.
Rock Blaster is a glintstone sorcery of the Academy of Raya Lucaria, an enhanced version of the glintstone miners' Stonedigger sorcery. It turns the staff's ferrule into a magic drill and drives it into the ground for a large shockwave, and holding the cast lets the caster walk forward grinding the drill into enemies while FP drains. Releasing the input or running dry still triggers the shockwave, so a held cast ends with a big finishing hit. The caster is left wide open and FP disappears quickly, so it needs a safe opening, and the Digger's Staff boosts its damage. It suits melee-minded sorcerers who want sustained close-range damage.
Effect
Imbues the staff's ferrule with a magic drill and drives it into the ground for a large shockwave; holding the cast keeps drilling into enemies while draining FP. Each cast costs 22 FP and 35 stamina and takes up one memory slot.

Notes
- The caster can move while drilling, and the shockwave still triggers on release.
- The Digger's Staff boosts it.
"One of the glintstone sorceries of the Academy of Raya Lucaria. Imbues the ferrule of the caster's staff with magic, then thrusts it into the ground to create a massive magical shockwave. Hold to continue moving without striking the ground, and then push the end of the staff into enemies. An enhanced version of the glintstone miners' Stonedigger sorcery."
