Flames are a Weapon Category that allows players to to cast Pyromancies in Dark Souls and Dark Souls Remastered.
Magic Adjustment (Mag Adj) is a special stat unique to spell casting weapons, and determines the amount of damage spells will do. Its potency scales with the relevant character Stat (Intelligence, Int; or Faith, Fth). The higher the Mag Adj, the stronger the spell's effect (note: some spells, such as Chameleon, are not affected by this stat). Be aware that the Mag Adj on different catalysts will scale differently. Specifically, they have different: base Mag Adj, max Mag Adj, and scaling. As some catalysts are meant to be used at lower levels (Oolacile, for example), they will reach their optimal scaling level sooner than those meant to be higher level catalysts (Logan's).
Points to note:
- MagAdjust is the only stat that affects spell's damage.
- MagAdjust's scaling bonus comes from Intelligence and Faith

I've read in some pyromancy pages "to cast a pyromancy, you must use a Flame or Special Weapons that can cast Pyromancies". Are there any such weapons in DS1? I don't remember any weapons that act as any type of catalyst in the first game (although the Manus axe is one catalyst with an almost acceptable melee attack).

fun fact: if you preform a melee attack with R2 the attack will do fire damage

On the page for Eingyl, it says you must have an intelligence level of 11 to get the flame. Here, it says 12. Might need to make that more clear.
