    [BUG?]Enhanced Pyrotechnics removes Heating Up

    Hello everyone!

    And nice to meet you. Made an account after lurking for decades.
    Title explains the problem pretty well I think. I was wondering if this is a bug or that I am missing something. I've tested it several times and it keeps happening.

    Scorch also removes Heating Up after I received the Enchanced Pyrotechnics perk.

    Heating up is removed if you don't score critical strike with fireball/scorch/FFB/pyroblast.
    basically this:
    fireball crit
    get heating up
    fireball normal
    get enhanced pyrotechnics
    lose heating up

    Hmm ok, but doesn't that give you less instant pyroblasts? Cause as soon as you get 1 heating up, and you don't crit with the next ability you're screwed.
    I'm probably missing something, forgive me, I'm sick :P

    No, that's how heating up and Pyroblast! works, you have to score 2 crits in a row. With Enhanced Pyrotechnics you get more chances to break the "i can't get the first fucking crit" streak every time you score non-crit, that's it. If you have heating up, you probably want to use inferno blast because it always crits and work towards Pyroblast!

    Alright, thanks for clearing that up!

    Enhanced pyro simply helps smooth out the "first crit" and then you can get your second one with inferno blast.

    read the icy veins rotation guide.
    After you get heating up, finish whatever you are casting (Fireball) and be spamming inferno blast as it finishes to proc Pyroblast.
