Fireball 🔥 Red Wedding

NOTICE: Berú of the Cauldron SET IS BUGGED RIGHT NOW AND YOUR STACKS RANDOMLY FALL OFF TO ZERO. TO FIX YOU HAVE TO UNEQUIP AND RE-EQUIP THE ENTIRE 5 PIECE SET. LOWKEY JUST DON'T PLAY THIS BUILD UNTIL FIXED.

Fireball should be strong in S14. The Berú of the Cauldron got buffed and you should be able to permanently maintain stacks for fat damage and permanent free casts

This will allow Damage Bonus Fireball to not cause mana problems. Additionally you can simply spam cast Fire Bolt to reach max heat stacks, then start blamming with Illumination Fireball

THIS BUILD REQUIRES A FULL 5 piece Berú of the Cauldron set to function. You cannot sustain Fireball without it the way I have this build setup for the Mythic or Ancestral set

How does the Cauldron Set work now in S14?

• Berú of the Cauldron is a ramping set, gaining 1 Heat per pyromancy cast
• It maxes at 15 Heat where you gain
• • 105% pyromancy damage (7% per stack)
  • 1500 life on hit (100 per stack)
  • 30% DR while healthy (2% per stack)
    
• Once you reach 15 heat, you enter an OVERHEAT state gaining an extra
• • 200% pyromancy skill damage (Not sure if this overrides the 105% from before or stacks with it)
  • All pyromancy skills become FREE TO CAST
  • 20% chance to inflict area damage (Just like 20% more damage basically)
    
• If you do not cast a pyro skill for 3 seconds, you begin to lose 2 heat per second
• • When you are at 15 stacks, you can stay there forever as long as you cast a pyromancy skill every 3 seconds
  • If you go 3 seconds without a pyro skill cast, you will simply drop to 13 heat, then 11, then 9 etc as each second passes
  • You can quickly stack back up to 15 heat to enter OVERHEAT again by simply casting pyromancy skills

Gear Multi Affix Buckets

• Pretend each bucket is an extra aspect. Four Crit Dmg [x] rolls will add together say 35 + 35 + 35 + 35 for 140%[x] or 2.4x damage
• Bucket 1: Crit Dmg [x]
• Bucket 2: Damage over time [x]
• Bucket 3: Vuln Dmg [x]
• Bucket 4: All Damage [x] and Elemental Damage [x] (Fire, Cold, or Lightning)

6/28/26 - Build created for S14. got summoned by the gal to assemble a veggie garden. duty calls. Brb

7/1/26 - enchantments updated. Enchantment Master is backwards in practice and you need to double up on one element. Skill trees tweaked as a result

7/18/26 - Build updated. Firebolt dropped for Inferno on skillbar. Paragon the same. Ball lightning enchant taken over teleport. Skill tree updated. Minor tweaks to Gear affix/MWs

Overall was not a fan of the build when testing. I would avoid this unless you are cool with chilling in Torment 10/11
