When teenager Johnny Storm joined his sister on a mission to space in Reed Richards' experimental rocket, he had no idea that the exposure to cosmic rays while airborne would grant him the power to burst into flame.Marvel Source
As a founding member of the Fantastic Four, Johnny took the name Human Torch in tribute to a World War II hero of the same name.
Johnny retains an adventurous (if sometimes rash) attitude, often to the chagrin of his more serious-minded teammates. He enjoys his superhero celebrity status.
I find this build to be very satisfying and fun to play.
The primary DPS and most used abilities of this build will be Flaming Pyre and Flaming Volley (basic), but that's not quite what this build is focused on.
This build is focused on igniting as many baddies as possible and then watching them all disappear with a well timed Extreme Combustion.
The key to executing a very powerful Combustion is grouping everyone together. The Combustion on each target will splash damage to another nearby target, so grouping everyone together will GREATLY increase the damage output, usually clearing the entire screen if done correctly.
Give it a try! Screen clearing with fiery explosions is addicting!
Patch 2.1 Update: Lowered points in Passives except for Fuel the Flame due to scaling, and
added Bouncing Fireball now that it has multiple Fireballs at one time.This could be swapped for Incinerating Blast as well.Update 2.11: Changed Bouncing Fireball to a 1 point wonder as I just use it to give everyone the burn debuff and then finish them with Extreme Combustion. Also maxed out Protective Flames after getting knocked around in Cosmic Terminals in the Test Center.
