Generally I only max goop over spitfire if they have a particularly immobile team (once I was against a Celeste, Krul and phinn) lets just say your guide helped me melt them.

I tested skaarfs fan the flames and the result was no crystal scaling and you have a nice comunication guide but please check out my guide of comunication, you can comunicate almoast anything importaint using only in game pings.
You also said you have a total of 70% shield piercing but you actualy have 80% because Broken Myth actualy can stack up to a total of 35% shield piercing.


Yep, my math was brought out on Stream last night, I keep forgetting about the base 10% shield pierce on Piercing Shard/Broken Myth. FTF can effectively be blocked by shield, however, which is why the 15% shield pierce now applies to FTF as of 1.2.0. So it deals Crystal damage, but does not scale with crystal.

Thanks for telling that fan the flames scales with crystal, I did not know it because it says it is based on the opponents max health and says nothing about crystal. The double tornado trigger works great for me but now do I know how to make it better.
Once again a great guide.

This is a very nice guide shall I admit because I am playing skaarf very often but I usaly go for a super tanky rapid fire skaard with 2 tornado triggers.
I can only see one singel problem with this build and that is that you probably have a hard time to fan your flames and that makes your flames almoast useless because the don´t have crystal scailing.
So I recomend you to change that Broken Myth into a Tornado Trigger or if have heave wepon allies so go for a Bonesaw.
The Broken Myth should not be needed do to the shield piercing passive from your ultimate.
I also upvote this great guide.


Skaarf's power is lost in trying to focus on Fan the Flames. Any item that's built that doesn't increase Crystal Damage is severely undercutting your ability to burn through the fold. Fan the Flames scales with crystal, dealing crystal damage and receiving the benefit of a Broken Myth. Stack 25% shield pierce on top of the natural 45% shield pierce that Fan the Flames already has and you're burning for 70% shield pierce on your Fan the Flames. Trust me when I say that Weapon items are useless on Skaarf, there is no situation where you should focus on using his basic attack over his abilities :)

Cheers,

Skipp
