11 Build Guide: Pyromancer
22  
33 The Pyromancer is one of the four officially showcased Fatekeeper builds. The core idea is sustained area pressure: fast casts, multiple projectiles per cast, and ricochet to fill rooms with fire. Skill-tree investment is concentrated in the fire branch and the spell-alteration branch.
