Astrologist is an enemy in Dark Souls 2 (DKS2). Astrologists, retaining a semblance of humanity, possess the ability to cast Promised Walk of Peace with high frequency. Notably, they can also perform substantial healing for themselves and nearby allies, demonstrating a unique proficiency in both offense and support. Enemies have their own behavior and unique attacks, killing enemies provide various drops that reward players with items and souls.

Astrologist Information in Dark Souls 2

Enemies wearing Black Hollow Mage Hood and Astrologist's Set, carry Cleric's Parma. They tend to hinder the Chosen Undead with Profound Still or Promised Walk of Peace, if they're getting too close, they'll cast Blinding Bolt and Sunlight Spear at close range.

In theory, they're believed to be the Drangleic Mages located at Huntsman's Copse before hollowing (Black Hollow Mages served Old Iron King while White Hollow Mage served either Duke Tseldora or Lord Aldia), however this is not the case, since Black Hollow Mages are tended to be female, while the Astrologists are actually male characters.
