Epidemic of Fire

Epidemic of Fire is an expert pyrokinetic source skill in Divinity: Original Sin 2.

Description

File:Epidemic of Fire.png Skill

Template:Pagename nd is a offensive pyrokinetic source skill that allows character to hurl a cursed stream of fire at their target. The stream of fire does not stop at the first target but will split and jump to other enemies in at least 10 meter range from the target up to five times. The Template:Pagename nd deals fire damage (note that the stream will not damage the same target twice) and creates a cursed fire surface upon making contact with target(s). Cursed fire surface will last indefinitely. Due to its nature, any flammable surfaces and clouds (oil, poison and web) will be set on fire and transformed into fire surface.

Characters without File:Magic Armour Icon.png Magic Armour will be afflicted with File:Necrofire.png Necrofire status and suffer damage directly to their health.

Since Template:Pagename nd relies on Pyrokinesis magic it cannot be cast if caster is affected by File:Silenced.png Silenced and File:Enraged.png Enraged status effects. Template:Pagename nd skill is reflected back when the target is under Deflective Barrier skill (Definitive Edition only).

File:Epidemic of Fire Scroll.png Scroll and Skillbook

Template:Pagename nd skillbook is a magical item that allows its reader to learn Template:Pagename nd skill, if they have at least 2 points into Pyrokinetic ability, and use it indefinitely. In order to be able to cast the skill, character needs 2 free memory slots. Note that the book will disappear once read. The book weights 0.5 and its base value is 750 gold. A skillbook can be crafted if a Template:Pagename nd scroll is combined with a High Tier Blank Fire Skillbook. Since Template:Pagename nd is a expert Pyrokinetic skill, traders will start selling the skillbook once Godwoken reach level 13.

Template:Pagename nd scroll is a magical item that allows any character to cast Template:Pagename nd skill, regardless of skill prerequisites, but only once. The only limiting element in casting Template:Pagename nd this way is the amount of File:Action Point Icon.png Action Points (AP) character has at their disposal in current turn. The scroll is craftable, weights 0.02 and has base value of 350 gold.

The cost of Action Points between Template:Pagename nd scroll and Template:Pagename nd skill themselves varies. The cost to cast the Template:Pagename nd as a source skill is 3 Action Points and 2 Source Points. The cost to cast Template:Pagename nd scroll is only 2 Action Points.

Both the scroll and the skill itself are affected by other skills, attributes and talents that may provide additional bonuses.

File:Pyrokinetic Icon.png Skill Modifiers

Damage of this skill is calculated with the following formula: (Base Damage) x (1 + Elemental Bonus%) x (1 + Attribute Bonus% + Weapon Skill Bonus %) x (1 + High Ground Bonus% + Crit Bonus%) x ( 1 + Misc Bonus %)

The damage of this skill is affected by the following attributes of the caster:

1. Level
2. Pyrokinetic ability
3. Intelligence attribute
4. Height bonus
5. Critical Damage Modifier

Out of these the most effect on the damage have level and then Pyrokinetic ability as the latter increases damage by 5 % per point. Level provides greatest boost to the damage done. Intelligence provides the lowest bonus out of the three (3 points in Intelligence are equal to 1 point of Pyrokinetic).

When it comes to enemies they may resist fire damage if they have: Fire Immunity Status and high enough File:Fire Resistance Icon.png Fire Resistance (which lowers fire damage done).

Template:Pagename nd properties can be affected by talents, consumable items (some of which may be affected by Five-Star Diner talent) and other skills.
