Notes

While it may look bad at first sight, having less damage than a T3 Scorching Blast Spell, this spell has the property of ignoring the defense of the target, making it very effective on high-defense enemies. Against enemies with 39 or more Defense this spell has a higher average damage than the T6 Elemental Detonation Spell.
