Version 0.17: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.


The Fire Magic school focuses almost single-mindedly on dealing direct damage to enemies, whether they be single targets or large groups. It is heavily reliant on the Conjurations skill as well, and practitioners will have no difficulty due to a lack of firepower (except when facing resilient opponents). There are a few spells in the school that offer slightly more subtlety, and Fire Magic also increases the chance of summoning a friendly fire elemental. Damage from Fire Magic is generally reduced by fire resistance.
