Is Magic worth it in Dark Souls 2?

Magic overall does way less damage compared to Dark Souls. You just don't hit as hard, even if you have high intelligence or upgraded catalyst. I guess that's why they have the items that replenish spell uses, because you'll have to cast a lot if you're trying to avoid getting close or using melee weapons.

Is Magic build good Dark Souls 2?

It's really good. Gear is usually more important than stats. Just get your Int up as high as you can, eventually to at least 50, enough Attunement for spell slots, and enough of the other stats so you can still dodge and carry your gear. Upgrade your staff to boost spell damage.
