Talents that modify Scorch
- Incineration (Fire row 1): Increases the critical strike chance of your Fire Blast, Ice Lance, Arcane Blast, and Scorch spells by 10%.
- Improved Scorch (Fire row 4): Your Scorch spell has a 100% chance to cause your target to be vulnerable to Fire damage. This vulnerability increases all Fire damage you deal to your target by 3% and lasts 30 sec, stacking up to 5 times.
- Heating Up (Fire row 4): Non-periodic critical strikes with Fireball, Frostfire Bolt, Fire Blast, and Scorch reduce the cast time of your next Pyroblast cast within 20 sec by 25%, stacking up to 3 times. Fire Blast grants an additional stack every time it deals damage.
