Sacred 2:Arrant Pyromancer

Introduction: The Arrant Pyromancer

Choosing this aspect will render the Adept as the classic mage, fully devoted to the element of fire. The very nature of these studies is a burning aggression, leading to a predominantly offensive style. Executing the art of fire magic allows for a wide flexibility in which the spells can easily be individually adapted.

Arrant Pyromancer Combat Arts

Ancestral Fireball

The classic spell is favored by novices and masters alike. However, variations allow the fireball to be customized and wielded as a succession of blazing rapid fire spheres, or it could become a large, explosive fire-and-forget projectile.

Blazing Tempest

A tempestual wave of fire is set forth in the desired direction.

Incendiary Shower

A devastating shower of meteors will rain down on the enemies in the target area and smash them to the ground. It will be possible to enhance this spell to include a huge meteor that will inflict heavy damage upon impact.

Fire Demon (Buff)

Conjures a fire demon which enhances the effectiveness of the High Elf's Arrant Pyromancer combat arts. The demon is also able to cast Incandescent Skin and attack opponents with fireballs.

Incandescent Skin (Buff)

The High Elf focuses on the ultimate control over all fire. She will become practically immune to burns and she will even be able to ignite incoming arrows while they are still in flight. Incandescent Skin cannot be used in conjunction with Crystal Skin.

Arrant Pyromancer Skills

Bonuses and Penalties

Like all special mounts, this Wind Serpent gives a large bonus to the rider's hitpoints and defense at the cost of increasing the regeneration penalty of combat arts.

However, this aspect mount gives a special bonus which offsets the regeneration penalty to Arrant Pyromancer. Therefore, the Arrant Pyromancer High Elf will desire this Wind Serpent. Combined with the Riding skill, this mount may make it seem as if there is almost no penalty whatsoever!
