It can be modded to be used either as primary attack combat art, or as supporting one. Usage: - damage and area of effect damage - multi-hitting (up to 3 fireballs) - up to 2 homing fireballs Due to its damage to mobs being quickly outclassed by blazing tempest and damage to bosses being quickly outclassed by incendiary shower, it may be a good idea to mod incandescent skin, blazing tempest and incendiary shower before modding fireball. Pros and Cons Pros Very versatile skill Can be used against single and multiple enemies Good damage and area of effect damage (with mod) Can get to extremely low casting times (like 0.5s) Can have up to 2 homing fireballs Cons Homing fireballs miss if an enemy is behind an obstacle Area of effect damage is outclassed by Blazing Tempest If you pick Fusilade & Homing, the second fireball will target a different monster, though if you're close enough to the first target it will still hit that.
