Avatar of Fire,how could it be used effectively?

50%of Physical/lighting/cold converted to fire dmg,you can't deal non fire dmg




With this you can convert 100% of physical into fire,which is sick(could be just 75% if they are not additive,maybe a dev can confirm this)

You also have this which coupled with AoF allows you to convert all cold into fire (same,looking for confirmation if the keystone plus gem/items are additive)

Power Siphon,Bear Trap,Discharge,Ice spear are all skills that seem interesting to me used with this,what other skill/passives/gems you guys think will be effective?

EDIT:Also facebreaker?Can it still be used with the quiver?(haven't used it since early CB,it used to work then)

EDIT2:What happens if you use AoF with a lvl 20 Cold to fire,it would result in 125% of cold converted into fire,would that boost the damage by 25%?
Disregard,from the wiki"The amount of any given damage type that can be converted in this way cannot exceed 100%"


EDIT3:Burning arrow also nice with this

what about ice spear+cold to fire+burn dmg+ele proli+ crit dmg/fire pen

setting all screen on fire with ice spears? crazy :)

e: didnt notice you have already mentioned ice spear lol :D

yeah i was thinking about that too,icespear would ignite easily because of the high crit,both base and second form

Who said that what AOF will do?

the question is if conversions from 2 sources are additive..

it could be: AoF leaves you with 50/50 fire/cold.. then 75% of 50% cold damage left will be converted thanks to lvl20 CtF resulting in total 87.5/12.5 fire/cold.. which would mean actually 12.5% less dmg

Its been in the game once before and it was insanely OP, its most certainly possible that this is what it will do.

Some are saying 100% Phys converted to Fire but at the cost of -50% Cold Resistance, others speculate on things like this. But who knows for sure, it highly likely though itll be a 50% conversion though, 100% was insane.

I know skill gems take precedence over items,but i don't know the interaction between Keystones and items
