==Gem Levelling==
'''Molten Shell''' is a [[Guard Skill|guard]] [[spell]] that [[buff]]s the user with a shell that grants bonus [[armour]] and absorbs incoming hits. When the shell expires or absorbs enough damage, it explodes to deal [[fire damage]] around it, based on how much damage it absorbed. The amount of damage the shell can absorb increases with your armour value. Base duration is 3 seconds at all gem levels, followed by a 4 second cooldown.
* {{c|mod|Damage from Hits is taken from the Buff}}: In the order of [[receiving damage|mitigation]], the Molten Shell buff takes damage after mitigation and [[aegis]]es, but before the player's main resources like [[ward]] and [[life]].
* '''Buff Effect''': Modifiers to Molten Shell's buff effect (currently limited to {{il|Ichimonji}}) will only affect the armour granted by the skill, not the damage, duration, or absorbed damage required.<ref name="buffeffect"/>
Each percentage of [[Quality|quality]] adds +1% Chance to Ignite.
* '''Reflected damage''': Because Molten Shell deals [[Damage reflection|reflected damage]], it is unaffected by damage modifiers, cannot crit, penetrate resistances, or apply ailments or other on-hit effects. Its damage cannot be reflected again.
* '''Guard''': Molten Shell shares a cooldown with other Guard skills (e.g. {{il|Steelskin}}, {{il|Immortal Call}}).
** '''Vaal Molten Shell''': Molten Shell and {{il|Vaal Molten Shell}} do not share a cooldown. Using one while the other is active replaces the older buff.

==Monster versions==
Monster may use Molten Shell (with alternative skill effect) if the monster has the mod [[Modifier:MonsterModMagmaBarrier|{{c|mod|of the Barrier}}]], or the legacy [[archnemesis modifier]] {{c|nemesis|Magma Barrier}} which grants the monster multiple skills and effects. [[Goatman Shaman]] also uses Molten Shell and different skill visual as the player version. Other example are [[General Gravicius]] and his map bosses variants, etc.

Molten Shell is a guardspell that buffs the user with a shell that grants bonus armour and absorbs incoming hits. When the shell expires or absorbs enough damage, it explodes to deal fire damage around it, based on how much damage it absorbed. The amount of damage the shell can absorb increases with your armour value. Base duration is 3 seconds at all gem levels, followed by a 4 second cooldown.
