Hey build gurus.

Firstly, thanks for all the help you guys, especially @flowcyto and @criswolf09 , have dished out for noobs like me who have been around for a loooong time but still don't know even the basics.

Secondly, my mage toon is totally sorcery based and thats getting kinda boring.
I wanted to request you guys to look into a survivable DPS mage whose main ST attack would be incinerate... AoE whatever synegizes best (Skarns? Conflag?)... Hydra, Pyromancer's blades maybe, Ebon Void (GOD I love that shield), maybe Incendiary Grenade. Is this possible? Also, if you guys manage to come up with something awesome, which you guys always do, can it be made endgame worthy?

Thanks again and I hope to hear from you guys soon.

    Well, I already helped another player recently w/ an 'alchemist' build, that bears many similarities to what you have described here:

    https://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/championsonline/#/discussion/1211103/alchemist-build-help

    You could make many diff power combos work, though. That one was more of a support/dps. Here's a more straight-forward Fire dps one:

    Thank you sooo much, Flow. This is absolutely superb!

    One question: Is there some synergy/buff/de-buff reason that fire-breath is preferable over Conflagration?

    I took it more for theme here, but if you want to re-order the powers to have Conflag then go for it.
