Flame Burst

Description

Launches a wall of flames from the Cylinder using Fire Crystals. The flames last for a short time, but long enough to hit nearby enemies multiple times. You can load up to 5 crystals at a time, which can be fired all at once if necessary. Damage increases with a higher average of your Max HP, Max MP, and Max Stamina. (Material: 1 Fire Crystal)

Details

Flame Burst on a Gray Fox.

Throws a continuous stream of flame at a target.
Flame Burst may be canceled manually at any time during its animation
- Attempting to load other skills will not cause Flame Burst to cancel.
Players may not manually select a target with their pet during Flame Burst.
Flame Burst has a long but narrow area of effect.
- Enemies entering the hitbox of Flame Burst will only be damaged and stunned if they are within its radius during a damage tick.
Using a Fire Cylinder, Volcano Cylinder, or a Demonic Hellfire Cylinder will increase the damage of Flame Burst by 15%, 30%, or 36% respectively.
- In addition, using a Cressida Set or Flamerider Set with at least 10 points in Flame Burst Enhancement will increase damage by 15%, stacking with Cylinder bonus.
Flame Burst ignores the target's Protection when calculating critical rate.
Damage of Flame Burst is only affected by Enchants, Fire Alchemy, Alchemy Mastery, amount of charges, and high Health, Mana, and Stamina.
- 8% of an average of Maximum Health, Mana, and Stamina is added onto Flame Burst's base damage. For example, if the user has an average of 100, an additional 8 damage is added to this skill.
- This only adds bonus damage up to 2500, or 200 additional base damage.
The damage of Flame Burst is per hit as well as per charge. As a result, Flame Burst is capable of very high total damage, despite its low base values.
This skill can be Auto Charged.
The number of hits are based off the Rank of the skill. Rank F to Rank E hits 3 times, Rank D to Rank 5 will hit 4 times, while Rank 4 and up hit 5 times.
- When the duration of Flame Burst is less than one full second, the last hit will deal reduced proportionate damage.
- The final hit of Flame Burst will knock enemies back.
- All other hits will not increase the target's Knockdown Gauge, allowing them to be stun-locked for long periods of time.
Damage of each hit is multiplied by the number of charges. (I.e. 3 charges will cause each hit to do 3x damage).
Loses 1 charge when attacked, and all charges when knocked back.
- Can be used even when stunned by an attack, as long as you have one charge remaining.
- If the player is attacked while the skill is in progress, one charge will be lost, but the skill will not cancel.
As a Fire Element, Flame Burst's damage is shunted by Fire Shield.
Other enemies aside from the targeted enemy will not aggro when hit by this skill, however they may be set to Alert if their AI allows them to do so.
Flame Burst cannot target enemies through rank 5 or higher friendly Barrier Spikes.
- The Barrier Spikes will be damaged, leaving enemies behind them unaffected.
It is possible to use the skill to attack enemies frozen by Ice Spear.
- Other players will be able to attack the frozen target normally during this.
It will use crystals stored in the Extra Storage bag, even if you don't have service.
At rank 5, players may permanently stunlock a target by canceling before the last hit, punching the target, and immediately loading and executing another Flame Burst.
- Players with virtually no latency may perform this starting at rank 9, however it is extremely difficult.
Only the initial burst will consume your cylinder's durability. The bursts afterward will not consume durability.
Can be cast without putting the player into Combat Mode.
- This causes certain enemy AIs to fail to aggro the player, instead changing their AI to Alert.
Occasionally if the skill is used while the character is in a hit animation, the flame animation will wave through the air as the character's arm swings to maintain balance.
Canceling the skill right before a hit may reduce that damage to 1.

Skill Issues

A graphical glitch might result in a monster being hit less than the normal amount.
- Example: Using Rank 1 Flame Burst on an enemy might only attack 3 times.
A monster can go through the fire if it is not hit by the first attack, allowing it to attack you even though other enemies are in the flame's effects.
- Similarly, it is not wise to initiate Flame Burst on a downed monster, as the monster will be able to take action for a brief instant after getting hit, enough time to attack adjacent players or sometimes even escape the Flame Burst.
Using Flame Burst on enemies frozen with Ice Spear will cause a bug. The monster will remain frozen but the one who casted Ice Spear will be attacked by it. This is known as the "astral body bug" in foreign servers.
Other players may attack with no problem while Flame Burst is being executed, although be warned that the attacks can cause the monster to be knocked out of range.
Skills such as Smash will make the monster invulnerable to Flame Burst if the skill is being executed on the monster.

Damage Calculation

Normal Damage

{[(Base Damage + Fire Damage Enchants + [0.08 * AverageOfMaxHPMPSP] ) * Charges + Damage Enchants] * Critical Modifier - Enemy Defense} * (1 - Enemy Protection)

Additional Damage

This damage ignores defense and protection.

Additional Damage * Charges * (Alchemy Mastery Bonus + Fire Alchemy Mastery Bonus) / .15

Final Damage

(Normal Damage + Additional Damage) * Cylinder Modifier * Elemental Modifier
