Fire Facet for CE

[Mvip]

is it good or bad? does it make a big different?
and if u have lot of -enemy res and +fire dmg, is it possible to get rid of the 40% randomly gap between 60% and 100% of targets corpse, so it always deals more than the target corpses life? that would kill everything in one explosion...

[fbmferinctt]

i never even thought of that... hmm i have to try that? and have you tried it and wht is your results? that would be hard to tell tho,... becusaue not only can you not tell how much dmg your dealin but how much fire dmg is being added

Fire damage is only half of the CE damage, something you probably didn't know.

[garion]

interesting approach though....

but yes CE is 50% fire and 50% physical dmg i believe...

[LowLevelDueler]

it would if you combined it with a good lower resist curse maybe

[garion]

but by its self...not really that much huh?

granted for a summoner that means

fire facet on aokl/shako/homunc ~15/15 eh sort of decent but sacraficing some MF in ptopaz/isted stuff =P or res

If there are no caps on monster resistance you could do more damage. However, you'll have to get the monsters down to -100 before it is more effective then amplify damage:

Corpse with 1000 Life
1000 * .6 = 600 Damage
300 Physical * 2 (-100 phys res amp) = 600
300 Fire + 600 Physical = 900 Total Damage

Corpse with 1000 Life
1000 * .6 = 600 Damage
300 Fire * 2.33 (-133% res) = 700
700 Fire + 300 Physical = 1000 Damage

For this to be effective the monster must have at least -133% Fire res. And if there is a cap you should have at least +50% Fire Skill Damage. With +fire skill damage:

Corpse with 1000 Life
1000 * .6 = 600 Damage
300 Fire * 1.5 (+fireskilldamage) = 350
350 * 2 (-100 res) = 700
700 Fire + 300 Physical = 1000 Damage

In conclusion:
Amp is far more effictive.
