The Rock Solid is a defensive spell that turns you into a rock, allowing you to deflect enemy attacks when executed at the right moment. Subsequently, you can launch a counterattack and inflict substantial damage. This spell proves to be quite effective against certain bosses within the game.

After defeating Tiger Vanguard, you will face a boss known as Tiger's Acolyte. The Rock Solid spell significantly outclasses him, allowing for a straightforward victory. Without the spell, the fight may get tricky.

Furthermore, you can enhance the spell's abilities even further by using Sparks. Some of the best early upgrades are mentioned below:

The Rapid Return upgrade is pretty useful because it allows you to cancel the spell if the spell's usage timing isn’t right. Meanwhile, Rock Mastery reduces the cooldown of the Rock Solid spell, so you can efficiently use it multiple times during boss battles. Finally, if you successfully deflect with the spell, the Ironclad upgrade provides you with a temporary damage reduction buff.
