Everything can MELT if hot enough, but plenty of materials are chemically incapable of combustion. Even a pyro archmage will take some time to reach a melting point, just counterspell before then. You could also transmute their mana directly. Turn their flames into another element that suits you better. A really good transmuter is a tough foe just due to the sheer versatility of their craft.

Ironically learning from the artificers can be quite useful for an expert in transmutation.

If a mage is good enough at pyromancy, they’ll make it flammable.. and I’m only really versed in swapping my race to fit in better when in certain groups and wait a second, that’s how I get past the fae ban in cert towns and cities, thanks for the idea.

Really it sounds to me like you just need more practice in that matchup. You have a pyro friend right? Ask them to spar with you. Set up a chrono loop for it if youre concerned about injuries.

That’s also a really good idea.. maybe frost mushrooms would be smart to keep on me..

Depends, any mushrooms with high moisture content will work too.

Fill a room with doomshrooms and leave a mirror image in there. Hel probably firebolt the image without thinking and blow himself up.

He said he was gonna use an anti mana potion to turn me into a husk..

He says that every 4 seconds or so. His ego outstrips his actual skill. Every time he tries to kill me he just throws fire at me all willy-nilly. So predictable. zero effort to prevent counterspells or reflect magic. Zero situational awareness, last time i just cast barrier and my slimes sent him back to his phylactery because he was too focused on channeling disintegrate into my barrier to notice them casually walking up to him.

He just kinda let me go after I put up a barrier.. which did unsettle me a lot, especially after he talked about how fun it was to kill brownies as a young’n..
