For the Vaal-themed counterpart, see Vaal Flameblast.

Flameblast is a channeling fire spell that builds up an explosion.

Skill functions and interactions

  • Stages: Flameblast deals more damage at each stage, starting from the second. This means it does base damage at the 1st stage, then 100% plus 110% at the second stage, and so on, resulting in 990% more Spell Damage modifier at the last stage, or 10.9x base damage.[1]
  • Cast speed: At base cast speed it takes 2 seconds to reach the maximum stage. Increasing the cast speed reduces the time to reach the next stage, similar to how Incinerate works.
  • Curses: 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.
  • Traps, Mines, Triggers: 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 also linked to a totem.[3]
  • Totems: When linked to Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Spell Totem", the totem stops channeling automatically at max stacks. Letting the totem die or expire will also release the blast. Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Less Duration" can be used to decrease the duration of the totem so that it expires earlier.
  • Notes: Flameblast cannot be supported with Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Spell Cascade Support" or Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Spell Echo Support".

Version history

Version Changes
2.4.0c
  • Improved Totem AI when used with Flameblast so that it ends the channel correctly once it has reached max stacks.
2.4.0
  • Added a channelled skill system. Incinerate, Flameblast and Module Error: Too many skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Wither". Please choose only one of the following ids:
    DropBearBossWither - Base duration is 0.50 seconds, Base secondary duration is 4.00 seconds, (20-28)% reduced Movement Speed, 15% increased Chaos Damage taken (page)
    LunarisGuardGloomElementalWither - Base duration is 0.50 seconds, Base secondary duration is 4.00 seconds, (20-28)% reduced Movement Speed, 5% increased Chaos Damage taken (page)     are now channelled skills.
  • Unlike other skills, which are used once and quickly finish, when you use a channelled skill, it doesn't finish until you release the relevant button/key. You continue performing the same skill.
  • You need to pay mana repeatedly to keep the skill going. The channelled skill's mana cost must be paid again to maintain it with a frequency determined by the cast time. If you can't pay, the skill will end, just as if you'd lifted the button.
  • Dying, being stunned, and other game mechanics that interrupt the use of skills will cause channelling to end as well.
  • Effects which trigger when you use a skill will only trigger when you initially start channelling - regardless of how long you maintain a channelled skill, it's still the same use of the skill. You need to stop channelling if you want to use it again.
2.1.0
  • Damage has been increased by around 20% at all levels.
2.0.0
  • Now grants 1% increased damage per 1% quality (quality no longer affects ignite chance).
  • No longer works with Spell Echo.
  • Base Cast Speed has been increased from a cast time of 300ms to 200ms to compensate for no longer working with Spell Echo.
1.3.1b
  • Reduced the damage of Flameblast by 20%.
1.2.0
  • We have reduced the critical strike chance from 6% to 5%. We have reduced the damage by 15% at all levels.
1.1.1
  • Fixed a problem where Flameblast was accidentally buffed heavily in 1.1.0. Based on feedback on the insane version, we then buffed the pre-1.1.0 version by 48% on purpose in this patch.
1.0.4
  • Flameblast has been added to the game.
