Hey!
So I noticed there was someone who asked about incinerate fuel economy, but there was no real answer. I am lvl 58 now, autocast is up, but fuel runs out very quickly, then I have to cast despair 8-9 times because its my highest cost and fastest casting spell to top up my fuel and proceed to cast it for 11 seconds at most, then its back to spamming despair. Am I missing something? Build looks and works great apart from the extreme tedium of getting my fuel back every 10 seconds and having a 50% dmg uptime at best.

I have this exact problem. I'm in maps, I have the gems set up as he has them set up, but even if I spam until full fuel at the start of a map, I run out of fuel and have to stand around spaming for fuel again. Everyone now and again would be fine, but I'm not seeing the fuel sustaining at all currently. The only time I seem to be able to sustain the cast is against a boss that I can keep incinerate on.

Your fuel sustain - once started - should come mostly from Cast on Elemental Ailment and living bomb explosions + fiery death explosions. Which means that you need high enough gem levels for higher mana costs and don't use incinerate without having fire remnant.

I'm in the 90's with a variation of the build, and i've found the point isn't to have permanent up time on incinerate, but to have permanent uptime on the fire infusion for the burning ground. Which means hitting the first enemy in an area with two living bombs, pick up 3 infusions melt everything and move on before the timer expires. Then keep an eye on your fuel and infusion timer to know when you should cast living bomb again.

Once you have a lvl 20 gem on living bomb it does get a lot easier to manage, but the infinite incinerate is a bit deceptive.

Yeah while general mapping you'll never have 100% uptime on incinerate. I thought that'd be pretty obvious but the higher you get with higher gem levels, more supports, and playstyle the closer you will get to that point.

For example: You will naturally get some fuel as you play by using living bomb properly, ember fusillade properly, despair when needed, and if you want to, there is room for another skill like Flameblast.

The goal is to Ignite enemies as frequently as possible to trigger Cast on Elemental Ailment which will cast Living Bomb to generate more fuel for Incinerate. Flammability Magnitude directly correlates to chance to Ignite.

Build looks amazing, surprisingly close to something I was trying to make. I really want to make automated contagion + dot work. My biggest gripe with ED contagion is having to press 2 buttons.

So I'm wondering what will happen when I replace the auto-cast living bomb with contagion. Looking forward to tinkering with this one for a bit.

Would elemental invocation solve this problem? Invocations can spend a lot of mana all at once & elemental invocation would go really well with cast on elemental ailment.

I'm thinking: incinerate for 10 seconds -> invoke -> incinerate for 10 seconds.
