Accelerant

Stun nearby enemies with strong accelerant. Increases all fire damage dealt.


Introduced in Update 11.5 (2013-12-19)

 Strength:1.5x / 1.75x / 2x / 2.5x (damage multiplier)
 Duration:30 s
 Range:8 / 12 / 15 / 20 m

Misc: 50% (cast speed bonus)

Info

  • Ember releases a wave of accelerant, briefly stunning all enemies within a radius of 8 / 12 / 15 / 20 meters. Against affected enemies, all inflicted  Heat damage will be multiplied by 150% / 175% / 200% / 250%. For Ember, casting speed will be increased by 50%. The accelerant lasts for 30 seconds.
    • Damage multiplier is affected by Ability Strength. The casting speed bonus is not.
    • Accelerant stuns enemies for one to five seconds, depending on the enemy; the stun length is not affected by Ability Duration.
    • Accelerant's casting speed buff only influences the caster, and is affected by Ability Duration.
    • Range is affected by Ability Range.
  • The calculation for casting time is:
    • Cast Time = Base Time ÷ (1 + Speed Bonus)
    • At max rank, expect a ~33% reduction to cast times:
      • Cast Time = Base Time ÷ (1 + 0.5)
      • = Base Time ÷ (3/2)
      • = Base Time × (2/3)
    • Animation cast speeds are unchanged, the ability only takes effect earlier independently of the animation.[possible bug]

Tips & Tricks

  • All of Ember's abilities other than this ability itself will benefit incredibly as the other 3 abilities entirely do Fire damage.
  • Combining Accelerant with  Banshee's  Sonar will increase Fire damage excessively if affected targets are hit specifically on the highlighted spots.
  • This ability causes mobs to go into the "on-fire stun" effect 100% of the time, which can be used as a panic crowd-control ability, similar to  Valkyr's  Warcry or  Banshee's  Sonic Boom.
  • This ability is most effective when combined with a loadout specialized for Fire damage.
  • This ability will not increase the damage of combined elements which include a  Heat component such as  Blast.

Maximization

This calculator feature is sunsetted on the wiki. It may not see further updates, but will be present on articles for the time being since some people still find use for them. See User blog:Cephalon Scientia/Sunsetting of Maximization Calculators for more details.
