I'm making a summon/fire hybrid and I have about 50 points to drop on fire skills. What I need is something to take on the phy immunes. Will Firestorm be strong enough to kill single targets and do damage to bosses in Hell?

I'm thinking of 20 in Firestorm
20 Fissure
10 Bolder for synergy

Fissure is probably better damage for groups of monsters but I'm looking for more of a single target attack. And Bolder is part physical damage which I don't need when trying to kill phy immune. This is my first Druid that I plan on playing to a high lvl and would appreciate any advice. Is Firestorm viable, or should I go with
Fissure, Bolder, or Volcano instead?

Fire storm is'nt even good against single monsters. Go fissure!

Thanks for the reply, and what do you think about Volcano? What I've read so far is that it does a lot of damage to stationary targets but can be hard to use on something moving around. Also I wouldn't be able to synergize it much as Armageddon is out of reach.

Perhaps Fissure is the best option.

Actually firestorm does great damage to single targets and unlike the other fire skills is semi spam-able, but it takes alot of synergies to make it strong. Fissure has the least synergies, but volcano works much better against individual monsters imo.

Hmm it would seem there is no clear choice then. At best Firestorm will have 20 points, 20 in Fissure, 10 MB with around 10-12 points from gear since I will be a summoner first. If I play this Druid long enough I will post again with results for anyone else who is thinking of a similar setup.

i'd go 20 fissure, 20 volcano and the rest in to synergies for one of them, for the one that needs it most (prolly volcano imo)
