Consumables

Picks for Fire in patch 12.1, from the Icy Veins guide.

  • Flask Flask of the Blood Knights Haste. The best flask for Fire.
  • Combat potion Light's Potential Raises your Intellect for 30 seconds. Use it with your big cooldowns.
  • Health potion Concentrated Silvermoon Health Potion Healing in combat. It doesn't share a cooldown with Healthstones, so you can use both.
  • Food Silvermoon Parade A group feast. On your own, eat Royal Roast instead.
  • Augment rune Void-Touched Augment Rune Raises your Intellect. It's expensive and is lost when you die, so save it for progression.
  • Weapon oil Thalassian Phoenix Oil Lasts an hour. Reapply it after it wears off.
