Don't meant to butt in here but you all seem knowledgeable. The singe fireball sounds interesting. If one were to go for multiples though is LMP definitely the choice over GMP? Thanks!

Fireball has high mana cost, so LMP is easier to manage. Plus GMP loses a good bit of damage in the single fireballs.. so you would always want to be super close to monsters so all 5 hit 1 or two monsters to do good damage.

So its a tradeoff for your playstyle and what you want.

Thanks Secksy, appreciate the advice. I was actually trying something different with a fire based Bloodmagic templar caster lol. Thus the cost is not really a concern but certainly the price of quality gems is :P I'd hate to fork out for a quality chain/GMP/etc and find it really bombs my killing efficiency. Anyhow thanks again Secksy, appreciate it.

I hope you get some answers for your questions here to, I'd be interested as well. Good info. I never thought of just going the single FB route but it is definitely quite interesting. If you are going a burn/built route(I was as well sort of, burn/crit) have you considered something like The Searing touch? Seems like the loss in raw stats might be made up with the +2 gem, another 5L possibly and 70% bonus burn damage sounds gravy.
