Fire Mage guide
Caster DPS. Fire stacks Improved Scorch and Ignite, turns crits and Fire Blasts into fast Pyroblasts with Heating Up (called Hot Streak earlier in the beta), and uses Combustion for burst. Forever's Frostfire Bolt is a level 40 Fire spell that counts as both frost and fire, checks the lower resistance and adds a DoT and slow; Accelerant speeds it up just like Fireball. Incineration, now in the first row, boosts Fire Blast and Scorch crit, and Ice Lance and Arcane Blast too.

What Forever changed
Frostfire Bolt is a new level 40 Fire spell: it hits the lower of frost or fire resist, adds a DoT and slows. Accelerant, which replaced Improved Fireball in a late October build, speeds up Fireball, Frostfire Bolt and Arcane Wrath, and Incineration adds crit to Scorch, Fire Blast and even Ice Lance and Arcane Blast. Heating Up (called Hot Streak earlier in the beta; tier 4, needs Pyroblast) makes each Fireball, Frostfire Bolt, Fire Blast or Scorch crit cut your next Pyroblast's cast time by 25% within 20 sec, stacking 3 times, and every Fire Blast that deals damage adds a stack too. Improved Fire Blast now adds up to 15 yards to Fire Blast's range, Critical Mass has 3 ranks for up to 6% crit, and Fire Power is reworked: 1% to 3% more Fire damage for each of your Fire effects on the target, up to 12%.
Tips
- On fire-resistant bosses, Frostfire Bolt uses the lower resistance of the two schools.
- Burning Soul protects casts from pushback and cuts fire threat.
- Master of Elements refunds mana on fire and frost crits, making crit a mana stat too.
- Heating Up stacks last 20 sec: after a Fire Blast and a crit or two, cast Pyroblast before they fall off.
