So, I was looking up alchemy on the wiki, and I found this skill, and I was wondering if it was any good? It looks really cool.....And if it is good, how is the training?

Taliya once posted that it doesn't get better until R5+, so if you do rank it, go for Rank 1.
And it's pretty good. It ignores Protection when calculating criticals and can be stacked up 5 times for more damage. They all get unleashed at the same time like Firebolt.
That's all I know though.

Okay, well I guess im going to put it off then, rank 5 takes a lot of AP, I was just gonna get it to 9 to have a random flame jet that does okay damage..I guess I should just go do refining some more....Dam refining.

It's an alright skill at rank 9, but unless you're a fledgling pure alchemist you'll have plenty in your arsenal that can outdo it.
It's been my primary offensive alchemy skill since it hit r5 and it's a definite keeper. You open up with massive AoE damage that just goes crazy on crits though after that your damage is a bit lacking unless you get lucky with aforementioned crits. You always have amazing crowd control though since you always kb and with proper aiming can hit decently spaced monsters.
It'll get a lot stronger when Chain cylinder comes out~

Flame Burst is great for help setting up a smash for someone else.
