Fire Arrow is an Amazon Skill in Diablo II.
Lore[]
Hefaetrus is the Amazonian god of fire and rebirth who lives deep within the great volcano, Mount Arnazeus, on the island of Philios. Although primarily the patron deity of farmers, from time to time he bestows his favors upon the warriors of the Islands, so they may keep safe his congregation. Through proper prayer and the sacrifice of many fierce enemies, an especially brave Amazon can attain the power to imbue her shots with the destructive power of fire, allowing her to rake blazing missiles from her bow.
General Information[]
Synergies[]
- Gives synergy to:
- Exploding Arrow: +12% fire damage per level.
- Immolation Arrow: +5% average fire damage per second per level.
- Receives synergy from :
- Exploding Arrow: +12% fire damage per level
This skill adds fire damage to arrows fired by the user. It also converts part of the physical damage from the arrow itself into fire damage, which may be useful for getting past enemies immune to physical damage. However, Magic Arrow is generally better for that purpose, as magic resistance is rare even in Hell, and the ability to not use up arrows can be useful in such a case (where many arrows may need to be expended to kill the enemies in question), as Fire Arrow actually does consume an arrow when fired. Fire Arrow is useful in early parts of the game, but is less effective than Exploding Arrow and Immolation Arrow available at higher levels.
Some Act I Rogue Archer Hirelings use this skill.
