[2.6] Ms. Chieftain: The wave of Molten Destruction (T16 viable, Good lab runner)

This build is 100% Fire based. Molten strike has a 60% conversion and Avatar of Fire takes care of the rest.

Choice of Weapons
Doryani's Catalyst gives us a cheap 300 pdps+ weapon with the added benefit of providing us with up to 132% increased elemental damage.
Razor of the Seventh's Sun is mainly used for its defensive abilities, but its 100% increased Melee Physical Damage against Ignited Enemies is good as it stacks well with Ngamahu, Flame's advances 35% increased damage against burning enemies. As we get 25% ignite chance from tree, and Herald of Ash helps with ignites too, we should always be attacking burning enemies. The 100% increased burning damage is a small boost as well.

Fire Penetration

• 18% from Passive tree
• 37% from Support Gem
• 10% from Xoph's Blood
• 44% from Flammability (48% with q20 blasphemy)

A grand total of -109% Fire resistance, not bad. -87% on bosses with their 50% curse effectiveness.

Strength & Iron Grip
Our ascendancy gives us 10% more Strength, with Xoph's blood providing with another 10%. Thus I am currently around 700 Strength, that's 140% Melee Physical Damage with Iron grip adding another 140% to our molten projectiles.

Point Blank
MS projectiles travel between 5 and 20 units. Point blank gives 50% more damage at 0-10 Units, and 30% more at 20 Units. Thus Point blank gives our projectiles a nice multiplier between 1.3 and 1.5.

Source MS projectile distance

Resolute Technique
Your hit's cannot be evaded, what a shocker eh? =)

Other stuff
Gain 20% of Physical Damage as Extra Fire damage if you have killed recently (Hinekora, Death's Fury), and another 15% from our herald of ash. Then we have a lot of other increases from the tree, but nothing that's of note.

Increased Life & Strength

• ~700 Strength adds 350 life.
• 192% increased life from tree.
• 4 Jewel slots for another 20-28% increased life.

Damage Reduction

• 7 Endurance Charges = 28% Physical Damage Reduction.
• Fortify = 20% reduced damage taken from hits.
• Arctic Armour = 13% Less physical damage taken & 12% Less Fire damage taken (good for reflect).
• 154% increased armour (not much but always something).

Immunities

• Stun Immunity from Unwavering Stance.
• Ignite Immunity from Chieftain's Ramako, Sun's Light.

Leech & Regen

• 7.4% Passive Life Regen from skill tree.
• 4.9% additional Life regen with 7 endurance charges (gets an extra 0.5% regen per charge from Ramako, Sun's Light).
• 1.2% Damage leeched as life (1% from Hinekora, Death's Fury and 0.2% from Doryani's Catalyst)
• Recover 1% of maximum life when you ignite an enemy. With 60+ projectiles per second, a 25%+ ignite chance, that should be another 15% life recovered/second.

In Hideout



Self-Buffed

For those who can afford it, Dying Sun is a godly flask for us. 2 additional projectiles, 30% increased AoE, and +6% maximum fire resistance. More damage and helps a lot with reflect.

Lion's Roar is awesome for the dmg increase, and as a bonus, it allows us to position bosses that isn't knockback immune into a corner where more projectiles will hit them.

2x Wildfire Jewels. Then a selection of jewels with a combination of the following mods.
+% Maximum Life
+% Damage
+% Fire Damage
+% Attack speed (1h, dual wield, or general)
+% Chance to ignite
+% Area Damage
+2 mana gained from each enemy hit by your attack (REQUIRED on 1 jewel)

If you can get any of the following on the jewel that will serve as well
+ Intelligence
+ Strength
+% Physical damage with 1h/dual wielding
