-
Note: I have not added 93 Technique accessories as I will be waiting to see 93 L grade accessories first etc. and items are subject to change.
Armor + Weapons:
- 7 Set IDN L (Expensive, but worth it)
- 5 ANY Theano Armor + 2 Ultimate Theano Weapon/Evolution Coma/Evolution Nightmare weapon (Casual)
- 3 RDN L [x2 Weapon + Shirt] + 2 Cor-nura + Ultimate theano (Best for FD and Stat gain)
- Ultimate Theano 7 set [5 armor + 2 weapons] (For FD.. its gonna be rare)
- 5 Piece 3rd stat Intellect IDN Unique armor + x2 Ultimate weapon (Casual)
- 7 set 3rd Stat intellect IDN Unique armor + 3rd Stat FD IDN unique weapons (Casual, not worth investment in the long run though)
-
Gems:
- Wise with critical for armor/neck/earring (Use if you have enough health but not enough Crit)
- Wise with vit for armor/neck/earring(Use if you do not have enough health/for raiding practice)
- Fire gems for weapons/rings
- Lv80 L grade fire gems for RDN/L grade rings
- Lv90 L grade fire gems for IDN L Rings + IDN L Weapons
Note: go ahead and use both wise crit/vit gems if you need a balance of both until you get better gear.
Enhancement Crests:
Need: (I would recommend getting INT or FD 3rd stats, depends on your budget)
- Superb Health
- Superb Life
- Superb Mystical
- Superb Wise
- Superb Offensive
- Superb Ultimate
- Superb/Quality Focus
Optional/If you have crest expansion:
- Superb/Quality Limit (Would only get if crit is high enough, if not get fierce) [Prioritize as 8th crest slot if you do not have crest expansion]
- Superb Fierce (Would only get if crit is low, IDN L gear will help you max crit later on, you can get this for now to get crit) [Prioritize as 8th crest slot if you do not have crest expansion]
- Superb Windsept (Would only get if 3rd stat, otherwise you can get sturdy/adorned 3rd stat)
- Superb Sturdy/Adorned 3rd stat (Would recommend if you have expansion as this will help increase your defense/survivability while increasing your damage with 3rd stat) [Prioritize Sturdy if you had to pick 1 as we mages naturally have higher magic defense]
- Another skill crest as a placeholder until you get 3rd stats. (Superb Magma ball - Damage)
Unique Crests:
Priority:
- Chaos Fellowship (Preferably mdmg with INT or FD) [Get this at daredevil faire shop NPC)
- Striking (Preferably 3RD INT) [Get this in IDN Normal/HC 8 mans]
- Offensive (Preferably high mdmg with 3RD INT) [Get this from mercenary missions]
- Increasing (Preferably high INT or decent INT with 3rd mdmg) [Get this from mercenary missions]
If you still have these hold onto 'em until you get better ones:
- Source 3rd INT
- Resistant 3rd INT
Note: Right now I'm still using my 3rd INT source over getting a clean striking because the source I have gives INT (which is much more important than the raw damage from striking and I have almost maxed out crit/pretty much maxed for the cap with high crit damage). Of course, if I find a striking with 3rd INT, I will definitely replace my source.
Talismans: (I totally did not use my tablet for the sole purpose of drawing those red lines)
- If you need more crit, feel free to switch adorned and windswept around.
- If you don't need crit at all, leave windswept and fierce on the last slots and move your other talismans around to accommodate.
- Fire talisman is not perm and you may put mystical there if your talisman is out.
- Ultimate talisman is expensive and rare so you may put mystical there instead.
- If you're good on crit feel free to put Health or Sturdy depending which you need more in the Fierce slot. (This highly depends on whether you're using fierce plate or IDN L grades since IDN L grades pretty much gives lots of agi for crit.. may even max out crit with just IDN L grades)
- Trash slot I choose brutal because strength gives a bit of crit damage.. might as well use something to put there that we can make use of. But this slot is pretty much for anything you want (whether it be a brutal or another talisman with 3rd stat or w.e)
Rotations:
General DPS Rotation:
1.Inferno // 2.flame spark // 3.Fireball instant // 4.Phoenix Strike // 5.Fireball Instant // 6.Firewall/Ignite for Fever // 7.Flame burst // 8.Flame burst again // 9.Hot Rod
Another DPS rotation that would be perfect if RNG gods love you: 1.Inferno // 2.flame spark // 3.Fireball instant // 4.Phoenix Strike // 5.Fireball Instant // 6.Firewall for fever // 7. Summon Meteor x2 // 8.Ignite for fever // 8.5 If you have time you can apply a burn // 9.Flame burst x2 // 10. Hot rod
This rotation can be used the other way too, flame bursting + hot rod first before meteor etc. etc.
These are just general rotations, go ahead and change it up!
Extra Notes/Info:
Build/Skills
- In my opinion sorceress tree does not matter as much.. as long as you have pushing skills on your skill bar for pushing mechanics. If you are not confident with just wheeling staff and fire burst, go ahead and get shock wave.
- Phoenix Strike and Inferno are debuffs, Phoenix Strike(All Attributes lowered) Inferno(fire resist lowered). Both debuffs last 10 seconds.
- Preferably use fireball EX right click if you can get all 3 hits in as it does more damage than left click.
- ??
Gear
- Utilize +1 Costume Weapon skill and +1 Skill Up crest for Lv21 Fireball (Max Level for fireball). Technique + Skill Up works too but you should use weapon costume instead of technique as other accessories may have better stats. THIS DOES NOT WORK FOR TECHNIQUE + WEAPON COSTUME.
- Burning hand crest trigger chance 30% adds up to 50% trigger chance overall with burning hand skill. This is why you crest trigger chance over damage.
- Fire% is basically Final Damage for you but bosses have fire resist, there's no such thing as Final Damage resist which makes FD superior. But! Its best to build both fire% and FD if you can. Fire% Will be cheaper than FD and you should still build it to the most you can.
- INT/CRIT/FD/FIRE% Are your damage building stats. Build some VIT if you need it (I would recommend building it via gems or just equipping an epic life-giving wellspring)
- It is not worth to crest Phoenix Strike debuff duration crest as phoenix strike debuff lasts 10 seconds with a cooldown of 13 seconds, the 3 second downtime is not worth it.
- Preferably grab grimoire to help with push mechanics, but if you already have dark/light/purple/gold weapons that restrict you from using them unless your weapon matches the costume weapon, go ahead and use the puppet/orb. (If you don't know what I'm talking about then you probably don't have them and that's okay! They were just a past egg item that restricted you from using a weapon that doesn't match your costume weapon)

I asked around for info on 93 raids/nests/pyro buffs before making this.
If I forgot anything or if there's any other info that should be added pls tell me
Please go ahead and check out other people's pyromancer guides too before deciding on a build, I am not the only pyromancer on the server and definitely not one of the most active ones.
If you have any questions regarding Pyromancer, please go ahead and post away ~ If I have trouble answering certain questions, I will consult with others first before answering as I have recently just came back to the game.
Feel free to use this thread as a place to discuss things related to the pyromancer.
Art was not done by me but was commissioned by me
BG/Guide was done by me
I tried so hard to not make it blue because it wouldn't match the pyro theme but it looked too pretty :'D
