Implicit Mod: Casts augmented fireballs.
Flame Sentinels have the ability to cast Fireball and augment it with either Fork, or Lesser Multiple Projectiles. A Flame Sentinels seem to choose indiscriminately between these two augmentations while firing on packs, but may choose Fork more often when only a single target is visible.
Flame Sentinels are a favored target for Raise Spectre due to their high DPS and useful Implicit Mod. A common tactic involves linking Raise Spectre with Lesser Multiple Projectiles which stacks with their Implicit Mod, causing them to cast either a five projectile Fireball, or a three projectile Forking Fireball. Greater Multiple Projectiles can also be used, but Flame Sentinels already cast more projectiles than most monsters, so Lesser Multiple Projectiles is favored due to the lower damage reduction.
