Incredible eh? Next thing we know, you'll be skipping barrier.

I really like firestorm. I'm always pleased to see team mates use it.

People can hate the screen shakes and visuals, but in the end of the day it still helps more than causes harm.


Ever played mass effect mp? One of my favorite set ups was flamer Vorcha Sentinel with Venom and grenade capacity -> **** others, I'm having fun.

ME did screen shake on a much higher level.  DAMP has nothing on it.

Make a vid from a melee unit in a small space with a firestorm, static cage and some more random flashy stuff, put those vids side by side, and say it again. Also, mentioned above - ME3 gameplay is far from DAIMP. It's a level-based coop TPS vs  corridor\dungeon-crawling team-based fantasy action\RPG. 

 

The only possible excuse for this 'artistic' mess, is to make targeting though FS an issue for mobs as well (~ME3 smoke screen), imo. 

 

But I'd hate to derail this thread even further, good to see that it's not just me, and that I'm not the only one annoyed by this spell (it's visualization)

I think the ele is more OP than AW. My new build, called The Compromise (lol) = Stonefist, WoF, Firestorm, Barrier

This ability is a focus ability, and since it isn't cast much in singleplayer, the screen shake isn't so bad. But in multiplayer you can have four elementalist with eight firestorms going on at once. Nothing will survive but you better be careful if you are epileptic.

Venom, Flamer, Snap freeze. Ugh!!!!!

 

All that's missing is Recon Mine and you have a real party.

I'd spend that point

Its true that firestorm is effective, but i hate screen shakes and visuals, its quite annoying, especially if some ppls in the group r playing melee characters:-(

[russ4ua16]

It is but it also means 9/10 of those mobs don't fight back. Fair trade

[actionhero112]

I guess it'd be a problem if the majority of the enemies aren't on the ground for melee units to run over and spank. I don't need to see, I just have to hold r.

I want to try this with four elementalists...Anyone got a vid, by chance?

All of my videos feature one man, doing the work of four.

You liked to Shockwave next to Infiltrators, didn't you?

[Shadohz]

I hated those with a real passion. Oh the headaches...

pfft the eye strain caused by Hunter Mode should be on the top of everyone's list.

Im crying right now. I miss this game so much.

Lol im running that build right now.

[SpaceV3gan]

Firestorm Ele is not that bad when it comes to screen shaking. You guys should see what a Fade Cloak-only Ele can do.

[BoogymanOne]

I don't play ele, but had one around lvl 15 that i never got around to promoting.

 

played it last night and picked up firestorm.

 

Did a solo threatening run for fun.

 

Barrier, Fade step, Firestorm, Stonefist.

 

Just run through each zone with barrier + fade step. Don't even bother to kill anything till you get to end of zone. Find a place to los everything and flashpoint spam firestorm. It's pretty ridiculous. I just stood around a doorway on zone 5 making it rain. ez.

[teltow]

No love for Firemine?

[Pheabus2009]

No love for Firemine?

Not without Firestorm  .

 

On topic: patch 4 really revived Firestorm, before that no one dared to use it before zone 5.

[Zorinho20_CRO]

Lol im running that build right now.

That is solid build.

[Reptillius]

I used it before zone 5. People didn't like me for it.  I just occasionally had to try and remember not to use it on the last group. but I only ever seemed to have a key issue with a pushy reaver in the group trying to run ahead past everybody else and kill things before the group got there.  But I had fun on like the first or second day of the game and I managed to show off by doing firestorm on two different choke points at the same time.

Love for fire mine right here!    Though placing it is sometimes game of its own. But the priiice.....

[orskar]

nerf ele pls, firestorm especially.

 

 

I played my 3rd ever elementalist promotion the other day (had been avoiding ele because key glitch) and felt so OP I was bored enough to just stop mid session and turn off my machine. being that OP is nearly as boring as spirit blade spamming arcane warrior.

 

lightning staff + stonefist = go to sleep kiddos

wall of fire  = lol archers. lol everything.

firestorm + flashpoint = gg mob.

barrier = can't touch this

death siphon + stand in the middle of mob + cooldown passives = constant aoe spam.

 

 

out do everything from easily from about level 13, unless there's are multiple archers getting cooldowns off of each other, or some experienced lvl 19-20 AW.

 

 

 

the only "bad" thing to balance out firestorm is that it initially casts underneath you rather than at the target, making you pretty exposed while you try and position it. placing firestorm down at a distant mob without barrier up is the only time I get any kind of real damage on me, but between guardian spirit, death siphon and HoK ring, it's not a problem.
