Flaming Volley

This skill has the same payload form of Volley with added effects. With each of the arrows lit on fire, they carry more damage potential with fire elemental damage added to their piercing factors. MP consumption goes up while the fire element is added on to the existing power level of the skill.

Predecessor Spells: Volley
Evolutionary Forms: None

Effect

Attack Form: Area Projectile Barrage
Attack Type: Physical Piercing Damage + Fire Elemental Magical Damage
Glyphring: Phased

Side/Secondary Effects

This skill inflicts a moderate amount of pain to the target, with the added potential to burn.

Manifestation

Flaming Volley, whether fired from the single arrow or invoked from an aerial glyphring launches about 70 or more arrows from a high location to a lower location. This barrage travels very quickly and is difficult to evade given its higher area of effect. Not all arrows will hit the target, but more than one arrow is likely to pierce the targeted wielder. The manifestation is all similar to Volley. Flaming Volley simply adds the fire element of magic to all arrows used in the skill.

Source

Source: Physical kinetic launch + Personal MP
Average MP usage: 18%

Material Components

A bow and arrow are required to use this skill. While arrows are generally created as temporary ammunition objects from magic, they cannot be used without a bow to handle them.

Related Element

Physical Piercing Damage + Fire Elemental Magical Damage

Effect Duration

It takes a full duration of three seconds for the volley of arrows to strike the target from the initial time the first arrow leaves the bow. If used from a glyphring instead, this effect will be reduced to two seconds for the higher cost of MP energy.

Effect Casting Time

In either method, Volley's initial invocation is not lenghty. It takes about 3 seconds for beginners to charge and prepare the needed MP to create the spell.

Range

Long

Level

Power Level: 6.8

Applied Restriction

If the wielder does not have a bow and arrow, this skill cannot be used. Even when using the glyphring varient of this spell, a bow is needed in order to create the effect of volley. Additionally, this won't work with a bow that has been artificially generated by a generation glyphring.
