In-game preview
How it playsA fire beam that scorches everything in its path for as long as it fires. Firebeam is the Pyro school's sustained-damage option - not a burst like Fireball but a prolonged channel that deals continuous damage across whatever you point it at. Against high-HP targets or tight groups, it tends to outperform single-hit spells. Hold it on a single high-priority target or sweep it slowly across a dense group. Firebeam reliably applies Burning to everything it touches, which makes it excellent prep for a Surcharge follow-up. In narrow corridors where enemies bunch together the beam can hit three or four targets simultaneously.
Strategy
Strengths
- Continuous damage output against stationary or slow targets
- Reliable Burning application for Surcharge setup
- Effective at clearing corridors full of enemies
Weaknesses
- Channeled - you can't dodge while firing
- Mobile or erratic enemies make it harder to maintain the beam
