For your attribute spec you're going to be using an INT/VIT split depending at a rate of 50/50. If you are struggling with tankiness you can put extra points into Vitality. You can also grab more Vitality to help buff Burning Soul, which as you'll see later has synergy with your Max Health Capacity.

Once you get further on into the game and are really trying to push the higher difficulties, you can go full INT, as it will have direct synergy with your incarnation tree. For just starting out however, stick to 50/50.

Here are the skills being used in this build. Due to extra points causing some confusion, we'll also list below the exact amount of skill points placed into each skill in the tree:

• Breath Of Fire - 1 Point
• Phoenix Flight - 1 Point
• Fireball - 1 Point
• Fire Enchant - 1 Point
• Ignite - 1 Point
• Blazing Trail - 12 Points
• Scorching Aura - 20 Points
• Fire Shield - 20 Points
• Fiery Presence - 20 Points
• Avatar Of Fire - 20 Points

For leveling with this build, you want to primarily run Breath Of Fire until you reach Level 8. Once you reach 8, you can then respect BOF and keep just 1 point in, moving on to Scorching Aura. This will end up being the skill you run for most of your campaign, and late into the endgame. You should max it out as you progress, getting 20 points in.

One important skill choice to mention is Fireball. With just 1 point into the skill, you can set your sub-tree up to give you a free source of Fire Break, which is an extremely handy stat to have as it will reduce the enemy defense by a substantial amount. If you do want to run this, the nodes to spec are shown in the image below:

As for the sub-tree nodes you want to pick, here is a rundown on each of the choices in this build

• Scorched Lands - A must pick for increasing the AOE of the Aura.
• Flaming Fissure - Should be enough to handle all of your single target in the campaign.
• Rapid Burning - Increases the tick rate of the Aura, leading to higher base DPS.
• Burning Soul - This is what you can use to scale the damage of the Aura off of your Maximum HP.
• Ground Blaze - This is mainly taken just to acquire Burning Soul.
• Burn Them All - Can help you with getting some burning damage passively, and can be paired with an item like the Soulburn Belt.

Once you're done maxxing out your Aura, some great skills to focus on hitting next are going to be things like Fiery Presence, which is widely regarded as a great source of extra damage. You're also going to want to grab Fire Shield rather fast, as it's a nice source of extra survivability on the build, in addition to a general Fire AOE.

When leveling this build, there is a set of item stats you're going to want to keep an eye out for. The stats that are most important to this build are as follows:

• + To All Attributes
• + To All Skills
• Increased Fire Skill Damage
• Increased Magic Skill Damage
• Increased Maximum Life
• Intelligence (Charms)
• Vitality (Charms)

It's important to note that what you do NOT want is anything Fire Damage related that is additive. This is purely a stat reserved for physical attacks, which this build does not do.

As for the items used on this build, below you can find an overview of each one, and some notes about them. Also included are some desired items that you want to end up with, but might be slightly harder to obtain:

• Oculus Of Ages (Weapon): Nice for the +5 to All Skills, and also a fantastic spread of buffs to other stats like Skill Haste, and your Resistances. A very valuable weapon to run.
  
• Chestplate Of Fire (Chestpiece): Again a significant amount of Skills and Attributes on this chestpiece, in addition to increased Fire Skill Damage, and reduced enemy Fire Resistance. What's nice about this chest is that it also comes with +35% to ALL Resistances. On the one used here there is an Io Rune, and 4 Rex Runes.
  
• Burning Gaze (Helmet): Gives you +4 to your Fire Skills, increased Fire Skill Damage, and a massive debuff to enemy Fire Resistance.
  
• Lava King's Lost Mask (Helmet): A truly disgusting item. Tons of buffs not only to your Skills, but also a combined +6 to your Skill Points, which is a major jump in DPS for you. Also increases MF and your Resistances.
  
• Steve's Necklace (Amulet): Grants 60+ to all Attributes, which helps this build out in a variety of ways. Steve's is highly regarded as one of the best Amulets in the game, so this is no surprise. If you can't get your hands on this, you can alternatively use an Elder's Heart.
  
• Ra's Band (Ring): This is a massive boost to your Resistances, and it also reduces enemy resistances too. Also great for snagging some extra All Attribute points, and some Life.
  
• Soulburn Belt (Belt): Very good item. Increases your damage to burning enemies by a large %, and also gives general buffs all around to the burning damage you deal in general.
  
• Grasp Of The Phoenix (Gloves): Increases not only your burning damage, but also your Fire Skill damage. You can also roll these gloves to give you +3 to All Skills, which is especially handy.
  
• Sacred Aegis (Shield): Gives you a ton of flat life, boosting the survivability of your build. This one has 4 Um Runes slotted into it.
  
• Flaming Marchers (Boots): Huge boosts to your damage against burning monsters, which serves as a straight multiplier to your Fire Damage in general.
  
• Crow's Feather (Charm): A pretty concrete pick for almost any build in the game. This is used mainly for boosts to your overall strength/res, and also for the flat 20% Movement Speed.
  
• Anubis' Ankh Charm (Charm): A Major boost to your flat life, many people see this charm as a lock for survivability, and for good reason.

Relic Setup

• Cheese Burger: Massive buff to your life, one of the biggest increases you can find for an item in the game, especially a Relic
• The Holy Bible: Points to All Skills, and also All Attributes. This is basically what you grab on your gear anyhow, so you're just doubling up here
• Triforce: Has always been a consistently good Relic, and it's great here too for your Resistances. Reall need to level it up for it to be truly useful, though.
• Half Eaten Mochi: This is an okay Relic to use assuming you currently have a lot of VITALITY.

Here is the overall direction you want to progress in with your Incarnation Tree, in addition to some key nodes you want to pick up along the way to help you push through Nightmare and Hell difficulty faster:

• Lower Power: A mandatory choice due to how aggressive higher difficulties will try to ruin your Res.
  
• Divine Essence: Grab this ASAP, as it will help with your Scorching Aura.
  
• Feast Of The Elements: Has direct synergy with Lower Power, leading to a lot of your Res getting converted into life instead.
  
• Bloating Organs: Has synergy with FOTE, which when combined leads to you having a crazy amount of Max HP.
  
• Warlock's Fury: Does not say exclusively that it works with Scorching Aura, but not much in this tree really does, so it's grabbed under the assumption it helps.
  
• Magister's Intellect: Once you can finally drop your VIT points for full INT, this node will serve as a solid way of increasing your damage output, necessary for climbing difficulty.
