Pyromancer

Sometimes known as the "living flame," these masters of  elemental fire know no bounds concerning the rules of magic. Flames of all kinds dance on their palms at a mere thought, and with concentration comes annihilation.

Though pyromancy was known to the ancient Yzarc before even the Eternal Wars, the art was not taught to humans for some time thereafter, contributing to the growing unease at the "beginning of time."

Pyromancer Playstyle

The Pyromancer class is best played as an all-out magic damage-dealer. However, it's also possible for them to support the party with fire-based magic that provides buffs, or by utilizing Wisdom-reducing or dispelling effects.

For attacking, you have a wide array of spells such as "Abyssal Flare" to damage a single target, or "Phoenix Flame" and "Pyro Storm" to damage multiple targets at once. "Burning Image" also allows you to damage an enemy while also teleporting, "Magma" creates fire all around you (which can help to protect you), and "Everburn" increases the effectiveness of many of your spells.

Meanwhile, you can support allies with "Fire Augmentation" to increase the effects of their attacks, cast "Meltdown" to reduce targets' Wisdom (and ability to use Criticals), and dispel magical and maintained effects with "Purifying Flare."

Finally, "Fire & Brimstone" boosts the power of your pyromancer spells, at the cost of having lowered defensive stats for its duration - perfect if you have allies who can protect you from the front lines while you rain down fiery spells from afar.

Pyromancer Lore

Meanwhile, Sellen, the old worn out pyromancer, had grown worried about the adventurers and the large amount of time it had been since anyone had seen or heard any news of them. Hoping to find the missing heroes, he called upon the three young adults he had harbored in his home since they were children - Palin, Thangoruin, and Artemis.

Traveling alone through Altius in years past, as a young boy, Thangoruin had been found by Sellen Verinost, who was even at that time, a master pyromancer. Sellen became Thangoruin’s mentor, helping him understand both Vyros and the world around him. Eventually, Sellen adopted Thangoruin as his own son, forgiving the adolescent’s bloody past. Over time, Thangoruin had become a promising pyromancer.

Over the years, in fact, Sellen had been training both Thangoruin and Artemis in the ways of pyromancy. And furthermore, Palin had recently begun studying some old manuals of his of the ancient paladin order; thus Sellen did not fear for their safety in the wilderness.
