Mechanics

Molten Burst can only be triggered by the character's own melee hits, as opposed to those of his minions or totems. Molten Burst can be supported by applicable support gems socketed in Ngamahu's Flame; it is not necessary for the sockets to be linked. Molten Burst is not a skill gem, therefore it cannot be supported by Empower SupportEmpower SupportExceptional, Support

Skill functions and interactions

Coverage: Projectiles are spread randomly over a 270° circular area within a radius of 5 to 20 units around the initial target struck. AoE modifiers affect both the explosion area of individual projectiles as well as the area they spread.

Overlapping: It is possible for multiple projectiles to hit the same enemy, dealing overlapping damage. However the chance to hit the initial target is considerably reduced due to the deadzone around it.

Pierce, Fork, and Chain: Molten Burst projectiles cannot pierce, fork, or chain, since they are ground-targeted.
