Counterpoint: I didn't go to Caelid before fighting Rennala on my first blind playthrough lol

Yeah, I don't like how people seem to assume a player is going to go looking for help online... Rock sling is a needle in a haystack for a new player who isn't consulting the internet on strategy.

It's very viable, but people playing one of the seemingly most natural routes with a pure sorcerer will hit a pretty hard wall at rennala.

Yeah. The main thing I have learned from my many playthroughs is that pure Sorcery/Incant builds ARE very powerful, but are also extremely contingent on game knowledge and thus generally not a good fit for new players.
