Why fireball is dead?

Fireball is completely irrelevant


...to fastpaced league mechanics. PoE is forcing us to go fast! You cannot complete even single memory with fireball. Not any incursion.

Because its visual effect is ugly? :>

"I play it, so it must not be dead!"

Nice logic...>_>

DPS is garb, AOE is garb, and burning/ignite is required on top of cast speed to be even slightly worth using.

I'm very happy with having picked fireball as my league starter. You can inspect fwameball if you want to see how I'm playing it.

Were I still investing in this character I would replace Tabula with Carcass Jack, weapons with Martyr of Innocence, and drop the Rolling Flames jewel.

For quick reference I'm using Vaal Fireball > Combustion > Volley > Fork > Controlled Destruction > Unleash

Anyone saying fireball is dead is either very hyperbolic, very elitist, or both.

Playing FireBall ignite trickster this league in HC, loving it

Remember one of my first chars with Spell Totem GMP Fireball and MI Summon Skeletons... feel actually good for this league and may make one again.

Fireball has nothing going for it even if you make it do 300% effective DPS it's not going to compete to a large degree.

Irrelevant. It's a bad skill. The fact you play it doesn't change that.

It's a good skill
