Usage Strategies

  • An effective use of Incendiary Shower would be to use it in conjunction with a stunning or slowing Combat Art like Shadow Step or Frost Flare.
  • In order to improve the chance to hit target enemy the High Elf should target the ground in front of the approaching enemy. Timing is key and if timed well the enemy will run into the stream of meteors as the land.
  • Slow-moving enemies, such as zombies, can be targeted directly. The circle will show centered on where you first click, but the meteors will fall on where the enemy currently stands when they begin to first fall.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Multi-hit attack that can smoke multiple enemies, or hit a big one and finish him off in one spell.
  • Very good against bosses (all meteors hit).

Cons

  • Long recharge time.
  • Randomness of meteors and small range of aoe make it hard to use on moving enemies that don't stay near the High Elf.
  • To be used effectively, needs to be in melee range, and High Elves are not too resistant to damage.
