Playstyle and rotation
Leveling priority
- Open at long range with Pyroblast or Fireball.
- Heating Up stacks shorten the cast time of Pyroblast. Dealing damage with Fire Blast adds an extra stack.
- Use Blast Wave and area effects only with an escape route ready.
Important notes
Fire delivers high peaks but is less forgiving of control and positioning errors.
