Description

Fires a pressurized Fire Crystal from the Cylinder. This skill can only be used after pressure has been generated by other Alchemy skills. Damage increases with higher Stamina. (Material: 5 Fire Crystals)

Details

A player using Heat Buster

Heat Buster enabled for use

Uses high Pressure in the Cylinder to blast the enemy with high Fire damage.
Consumes 5 Fire Crystals upon use.
Upon being used, the user as well as the target will be pushed back a set distance.
- The user will be unable to change weapons or load skills during this.
You must use 3 consecutive offensive Alchemy skills for the skill to reach 100% Pressure.
- The following skills are considered offensive Alchemy:
  - Water Cannon
  - Wind Blast
  - Life Drain
  - Flame Burst
    - If you start Flame Burst and manually cancel it before the skill's animation ends, it will not contribute to the count.
  - Sand Burst
  - Frozen Blast
  - Shock
  - Summon Golem
    - Summon Golem contributes to the count when the Golem is summoned, but attacks from the Golem do not add to the count.
- Flame Burst and Shock do not take into account how many enemies are hit, all that matters is that it has been used.
- Simply loading the skill will not count; the skill must be used.
- Multiple charges of an Alchemy Skill will contribute more towards Heat Buster when used.
  - Flame Burst adds 2 skill uses at 1-4 charges and can add a max of 3 skill uses at 5 charges.
  - Water Cannon can add a max of 2 skill uses at 5 charges.
When the skill is available, its icon will glow.
- The skill becomes available at 50% Pressure, but damage is reduced proportionate to Pressure if Pressure is not 100%.
- At 100% Pressure, an additional 20% damage is inflicted.
- The skill will remain active until it is used.
  - Pressure decreases by an incredibly small amount every second if Pressure is not at 100%.
- If you are hit during the animation after using the skill, Heat Buster will remain active.
Unlike most offensive Alchemy skills, Heat Buster deals splash damage.
The skill's damage is increased by the equipped cylinder (Fire Cylinder, Volcano Cylinder, or Demonic Hellfire Cylinder), Alchemy Mastery and Fire Alchemy skills, and 45% of an average of Maximum Health, Mana, and Stamina.
- This only adds bonuses up to 2500, or 1125 additional base damage.
- This is calculated as: [{(Base Damage + Fire Damage Enchants + (AverageOfMaxHPMPSP * 0.45)) * [1 + 3*(Alchemy Mastery Bonus + Fire Alchemy Bonus)]} * Critical Modifier - Enemy Defense] * (1 - Enemy Protection) * Cylinder Modifier * Set Bonus * Elemental Modifier
As a Fire Element, Heat Buster is shunted by Fire Shield.
