Hmm. Am I missing something with this set? Everytime I try and level a fire character I get bored and frustrated.
The early levelling attacks are dull (Fire Strike, step fowards) and over-complicated (Fiery Escalation? 25% bonus on an attack which does less than 100 damage, hmm), Fireball takes an age to charge compared to other Tier blast attacks, energy is a constant problem until you get Thermal Reverberation, and a set which derives most of its offensive power from maintaned attacks doesn't seem to give much consideration to defence. I'm persisting with the Blazing Archetype but Fire Freeforms are painful to make and play. Any suggestions as to better routes for more enjoyable levelling?

Tutorial: throw fire, fire strike.
Level 6: retcon out of fire strike, add fiery form and fire breath.
Level 8: retcon out of fire breath, add thermal reverb and conflagration.
Level 11: add fiery will (it's not a great endgame choice, but should be fine for leveling)
Level 14: add incinerate.
That's pretty much it for key powers, though a reliable way to apply burning effects is handy (flashfire or incendiary grenade). As for your defense, it's "dead things don't do damage".
