Fire Spiral is a very effective mob killer. Run directly into a mob and cast it immediately for explosive damage or plant it as a trap to draw enemies into from a distance. When using as a trap plant several Fire Spirals for maximum effect. Enemies standing at the edge of the Fire Spiral will be caused minimal damage because of the pulsing behaviour of the Spell. The closer an enemy is to the center of the Spell the more damage they will take so casting Fire Spiral directly on top of an enemy will result in the most damage. As a means for killing large enemies like dragons use a Combo containing 4 Fire Spirals, cast it as a trap at a safe distance from your target and then draw the target into it. Adding one Ring of Ice to the trap will increase this Combo's effectiveness dramatically because of it's slowing effect on enemies. Alternatively, use a 3 Fire Spiral 1 Ring of Ice Combo. | Fire Spiral is a very effective mob killer.

Fire Spiral is a very effective mob killer. Run directly into a mob and cast it immediately for explosive damage or plant it as a trap to draw enemies into from a distance. When using as a trap plant several Fire Spirals for maximum effect. Enemies standing at the edge of the Fire Spiral will be caused minimal damage because of the pulsing behaviour of the Spell. The closer an enemy is to the center of the Spell the more damage they will take so casting Fire Spiral directly on top of an enemy will result in the most damage. As a means for killing large enemies like dragons use a Combo containing 4 Fire Spirals, cast it as a trap at a safe distance from your target and then draw the target into it. Adding one Ring of Ice to the trap will increase this Combo's effectiveness dramatically because of it's slowing effect on enemies. Alternatively, use a 3 Fire Spiral 1 Ring of Ice Combo. However, Fire Spiral is blocked/negated by impassable objects such as walls, trees, rivers, etc, so it's less effective in confined spaces.
Pros and Cons
- Pros
- Ideal against mobs
- Very quick regeneration in general
- Cons
- Can cause significant lag to others when playing with a party in MP.
- Is blocked by walls, trees, etc, so Fire Spiral isn't as effective in confined spaces.
