Firestorm Build

A classic Path of Exile spell, Firestorm has been reworked to give it more powerful visuals, more reliable area coverage and a greater reward for casting fewer, more powerful Firestorms. It is now a level 28 skill, increased from level 12. Firestorm now calls down a single, powerful meteor followed by a smaller ongoing storm of fire over a duration. It now has a limit on how many ongoing storms can be active at once, so you can call down as many meteors as you’d like but can’t stack up the ongoing fire storms by extending their duration and triggering or casting the skill rapidly. This has allowed us to greatly increase the area of each impact and the overall damage per cast (and improves performance).

Level Effect

Skill functions and interactions

Area of Effect: Increased AoE will increase both the area in which the fireballs randomly fall and also the radius of the individual fireball damage. Full spell damage is done at any point within the AoE of a fireball, however due to the fact that enemies take up an area and not simply a point, less spell damage is dealt to any given enemy as area increases. For this reason increasing the AoE of Firestorm paradoxically decreases the average damage dealt to a single target.

Duration: Increasing duration with either supports or passives will increase the total number of fireballs that fall before the spell ends.

Damage Effectiveness: Damage from secondary sources like 'added damage' supports or heralds applies at only 80% of their listed value.

Damage per Second: Due to the complexity of estimating actual DPS of the skill including all possible factors, ingame tooltip shows only average damage per hit of one fireball, with actual DPS of the skill being considerably higher.

Item acquisition

Firestorm can drop anywhere. Drop level: 28.

PoE 3.13 Changes

Firestorm Reworks 3.12

Firestorm now calls down a large meteor that impacts the targeted location, followed by a series of smaller impacts at set intervals over the storm’s duration. The base power of the spell has been significantly raised, so you are now limited to three Firestorms at any given time (any new storms created will replace the oldest).

• Now requires level 28 at gem level 1 (from 12). Please be aware that existing low level characters with Firestorm socketed may have that gear slot disabled until the Firestorm gem is removed.
• Now has a mana cost of 13 at gem level 1, up to 25 at gem level 20.
• Now has an added damage effectiveness of 50%.
• Now deals 22 to 33 fire damage at gem level 1, up to 207 to 311 fire damage at gem level 20.
• Now has a base duration of 1.4 seconds with one impact every 0.2 seconds.
• The first impact now has 100% more area of effect and deals 150% more damage.
