Useful Info

Salamander stormcallers are unusual pyromancers, summoning flame clouds or hitting you with weak fire spells, but also chanting for a few rounds to unleash a Fire Storm. They can be found in the Vaults.

Tips & Tricks

They are very resilient to fire, and vulnerable to cold.
Their Chant Fire Storm spell cuts through much of your fire resistance, so no character can truly ignore its effects. However, it takes them 3 auts to cast. During that time, if you can kill or disable the caster, the spell will fizzle. Leaving their line of sight is also quite effective at negating the spell.

History

Salamander stormcallers will be added in 0.17.
