Summary

Daniel builds a Flame Art Dryleaf Arts setup using Palm Blast, fire-boosting talismans, Rakshasa armor, buffs, and attack-power Physick tears. Palm Blast repeatedly deals roughly 8,000–11,000 damage, often one-shotting or two-shotting enemies, though health-draining effects create danger. Oil Soaked Tear primes attacks briefly; Whirlwind Kick and Flames of the Redmanes are serviceable but weaker than Palm Blast.

Insight

Iterative build testing continues: exceptional damage is offset by timing, resource, and survivability weaknesses.
