How Ignite & Wildfire Works
Ignite deals 8% of the target's current HP as fire damage per second for 3 seconds. With Wildfire, every tick of Ignite damage on one enemy applies Ignite to all enemies within 4 meters. In a dense room of 20+ enemies, the fire spreads exponentially — within 3 seconds, every enemy is burning.
Key interaction: Ignite damage scales with enemy HP, not your weapon damage. This makes Burning Pike uniquely effective against high-HP elite packs and bosses — the fire ticks for massive numbers.
Best Blessings
- Inferno — +40% fire damage. Also increases Ignite tick damage by 40%.
- Kindling — Ignite duration +2 seconds (5s total). Wildfire has more time to spread.
- Phoenix Rebirth — Revive once per level with 30% HP. Safety net for the aggressive playstyle.
Best Character: Pyromancer
Pyromancer's Divine Form makes all fire damage crit for 8 seconds. Combined with Wildfire spreading Ignite to the entire room during the Divine Form window, you get 8 seconds of guaranteed critical fire ticks on every enemy.
Playstyle
Hit the largest enemy in the room once, then dodge away. Watch Wildfire do the rest. Re-apply Ignite every 5 seconds. For bosses, keep Ignite active at all times — the %HP-based burn is your primary damage source, not the pike's direct hits.
