Fire Cloak

SKILL_FireCloak · Active Physical Self

Surround yourself with a cloak of flame for 10 seconds, granting yourself a Barrier equal to 150% of Magic Attack Power. Every 3 seconds, the cloak deals 30% of Magic Attack Power as magic damage to adjacent enemy units and applies 1 Burning to them for 2 seconds.

Effects & keywords

  • Barrier (on user): Blocks damage to the head/body, consuming stacks equal to the damage blocked.
  • Burning (on enemy): 3 magic damage per stack, every 1 second (flat, does not scale with attack power; stacks up to 50). Example: 10 stacks = 30 magic damage/second before resistance. Duration is set by the applying skill. It never misses, is never guarded or critical and goes past Barrier, but the target's Magic Resistance still cuts it (x 100 / (100 + resistance)). On a Wet or Heavily Wet target each tick is x0.8.

on user affects the caster, on enemy the target.

Damage

Shown for stock Liana, Fire Wooden Staff at level 5 (level cap). Pick your physical and magic units in the sidebar.
Damage per second 12.8 per second sustained from its aura + Burning at this caster's attack speed (0.6/s)
Damage over time Applies 1 Burning = 3 damage/second (3/stack/s x 1 stacks) for 2 s = 6 total per application, before resistance. It is flat (attack power does not change it). It never misses, is never guarded or critical and goes past Barrier, but the target's Magic Resistance still cuts it (x 100 / (100 + resistance)). On a Wet or Heavily Wet target each tick is x0.8. Re-applied on each hit: at this caster's attack speed (0.6/s) about 1.3 stacks stay up, for ~3.8/s sustained.
Aura 9 magic per second to nearby enemies for 10 s
Barrier Grants a 134 barrier for 10 s
Burning skips Barrier and never misses, but the target's Magic Resistance still cuts each tick.
Numbers are before target resistance (damage x 100 / (100 + R); most monsters have 0, armored ones up to 60 for a 37.5% cut) and before hit chance, dodge and guard. Combat difficulty does not change your own damage.

Range and area

Self only

This skill is cast on the caster itself. It has no target tile and no area, so there is nothing to aim: it always affects the unit that uses it.
