Revision as of 09:48, 27 September 2014

Template:Gem Infobox Flameblast is a channeling fire spell that builds up an explosion.

Skill Functions and Interactions

  • Area of Effect of the blast can be increased like usual. Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Concentrated Effect" works, as well as Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Increased Area of Effect".
  • Because there is no "Duration" tag, Reduced Duration doesn't work directly on the skill.
  • The base casts per second is 3.33, so it takes 3 seconds to reach 10 stages.
  • Cast speed reduces the time to max stage, similar to how Incinerate works.[1] Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Spell Echo" causes Flameblast to grow 2 stages at a time, further reducing the time to max.
  • The blast detonates ~0.5sec after releasing the key, giving the player enough time to cast a curse like Flammability or try to Shock, however this will only boost the damage of burn if targets get ignited because the blast goes off before the curse or shock stacks.[2] Moving will set off the blast earlier. (Citation needed. I do this all the time on my witch though)
  • Flameblast deals 110% more damage per stage for a total of 1100% more damage, or 12 times base damage.
  • The skill can't be cast by conditional trigger gems such as Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Cast when Damage Taken" and Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Cast on Critical Strike". It also can't be linked to Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Trap" or Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Remote Mine" (unless linked to a totem).[3]
  • When linked to Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Spell Totem", the totem doesn't stop channeling at 10 stacks. The player has to resummon the totem or let it die/expire (or kill it's target?) to release the AoE. [4] Reduced Duration can be used to time the duration of the totem, so that it automatically expires when 10 stacks are reached.
  • Bug: Can change the fire ring's location visually by clicking a far Move Only while channeling but it still detonates at the original spot.
