I skitter out of the way just before the ball of roiling flames detonates in a furious roar, scorching me on the back-zone rather badly. Despite sensing it coming, and despite using my empowered dash to basically teleport a hundred metres, I still got burned. That was one big kaboom.

Using the dextrous aim of my nozzle, I keep firing acid at Pyrixan to keep the pressure on her as I size up against Torrifex who looks like he’s positively boiling beneath his skin.

A steady stream of heavy-duty stone spears still zips through the air toward him, but he’s countered by enacting some variety of fire domain.
