Do YOU want to be an arsonist? Do YOU want to completely melt every single ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ enemy you come across, no hassle? Then this build is for you!
 
 

DISCLAIMER

Yes, this build very much requires Survivors of the Void. Also, spoilers, can’t forget that. Ok, let’s begin!
 

 
 
 

Characters & Skills

The best character for this build is Artificer, as she is the only survivor to have fire-based attacks from the start. She also has decent starting health, regen, and can also neatly fit a microcosm of this build into another. Also, her Snapfreeze is an incredible utility skill.
 
 
Primary
 
Flame bolt. It gives burn, and you’ll see why this is Very Important later.
 
 
Secondary
 
Can be Either. It doesn’t matter, since none of them have burn properties.
 
 
Utility
 
You only have one to choose from, so Snapfreeze.
 
 
Special
 
Flamethrower for the same reason as flame bolt, but it’s even better.
 
 
 

Items & Equipment

(Oh yeah, and if you want to get this build to its full potential, play with artefact of command.)
 
 
Gasoline – [fandom.com] 
 

• Common Damage item.
• Whenever an enemy dies, they cause burn to every enemy within 12m for 150% base damage for 3 seconds.
• Every gasoline after the first gives +4m range on kill (Linear increase), +75% base damage added to the burn status (Linear increase) & +1.5 seconds burn duration to affected enemies (Linear increase).
• The bonus burn duration does NOT count towards other sources of burn.

 
 
Will-o’-the-wisp – [fandom.com] 
 

• Uncommon Damage Item.
• On death, enemies explode into a 12m lava pillar that deals 350% base damage.
• Every copy after the first gives +280% base damage to the explosion and +2.4m to the radius of the explosion.
• Doesn’t inflict burn, but the damage and fire makes it suitable for this build in my eyes.

 
 
(SotV) Voidsent Flame – [fandom.com] 
 

• Void Damage Item.
• Upon hitting an enemy which is at full health, they explode into a 12m lava pillar for 260% base damage.
• Each copy after the firstgives +12m radius and +156% base damage to the pillar.
• PICKING UP EVEN A SINGLE COPY OF THIS ITEM WILL CONVERT ALL WILL-O’-THE-WISPS INTO MORE VOIDSENT FLAMES. IF YOU PREFER WILL-O’-THE-WISPS, DO NOT PICK THIS ITEM UP.

 
 
(SotV) Ignition Tank – [fandom.com] 
 
 

• Uncommon Damage item.
• Any of your attacks that would inflict Ignite will instead inflict stronger burn, which will deal 300% more damage per stack.

 
 
Equipment
 
 
(SotV) Molotov (6-Pack) – [fandom.com] 
 

• Upon use, throw a gravity-affected molotov pack.
• When the pack hits anything (or after 2 seconds), split into 6 individual molotovs which explode.
• The individual molotovs deal 500% damage on explosion, inflict Ignite (or stronger burn if you have ignition tank) and leave behind lava pools.
• The lava pools last roughly 7 seconds and deal 200% dps to any enemy standing in one.
• 45 second cooldown.

 
 
Forgive Me Please – [fandom.com] 
 

• On use, throw out a doll that replicates your on kill effects every second for 8 seconds.
