Flame Throwing Flame Throwing

Mage · Fire · Row 2 of 7 · 2 ranks

Flame Throwing sits in row 2 of the Mage Fire tree. A talent tree is simply the grid of talents for one class role. It can take up to 2 points. Max it fully, or put in a few points just to open the rows below.

What Flame Throwing does at each rank

A rank is one level of a talent. Every rank makes the effect a bit stronger. The list below uses the exact wording from the beta client, word for word.

  1. Rank 1: Increases the range of your Fire spells by 3 yards.
  2. Rank 2: Increases the range of your Fire spells by 6 yards.

How to reach Flame Throwing

Row 2 opens after you spend 5 points in the earlier Fire rows. Level 15 is the earliest you can pick up Flame Throwing.

Is Flame Throwing worth the points?

Every rank makes the effect stronger, so putting in a few points while leveling is totally fine. Max it when the final rank is the heart of your endgame build. And if you only need it as a stepping stone, no shame in stopping early.
