Pyromaniac - Passive

Adriana can start fires on the ground. Enemies lit on fire by a burning area are Burned, taking damage over time and have their movement speed reduced. Damage increases per stack of Burned. Adriana recovers 0.5/1/1.5% SP every 0.5s while a fire she lit is active.

IMPORTANT NOTES

- Movespeed reduce by -30% on enemies

- Burn procs every .5 seconds

- Skill damage base 4/10/15 + (AP15%) +20% per stack of burn

- Minor SP gain as noted above

- Your W, E, and R damage is based on this passive

Alright so we know here that she slows and gains SP based on her fires. Hey that's great we shouldn't run out of SP right? WRONG Adriana is such a SP guzzles gas worse than your 1965 Oldsmobile, so much so that she needs this severely along with other SP regen items.

Don't forget! The slow is massively important for chasing people down. All of Adriana's abilities are long CD. Don't miss a shot!

Your abili

Flamethrower - Q

Adriana fires her flamethrower in the targeted direction, dealing true damage (true damage ignores defense and is not affected by skill amplification).

IMPORTANT NOTES

- Point the ability in a direction you can strafe in

- Lasts 2 seconds

- Can hit MULTIPLE people

Movement is key here. I combine this move with W to make sure I can strafe and keep people in the flames. Remember, the more people you can catch in this, the more damage you deal.

Oil Slick - W

Adriana spills oil on the targeted location. The oil slick remains for a certain time. Adriana can ignite the oil slick with a skill to start a fire for 5 seconds. Enemies inside the oil slick have their movement speed reduced and cannot use movement skills.

IMPORTANT NOTES

- Movespeed reduce by -30% on enemies

- Long initial cooldown 24s! Reduced by 4s per level.

Bread and butter of your combos and damage. Use this to stack damage with everything you have! Lay it down to slow persons and ignite it to proc your passive.

Fire Escape - E

Adriana dashes in the targeted direction, leaving behind a trail of fire. The flames create fire and remain for 2 seconds.

IMPORTANT NOTES

- Can be used to chase or escape (Only plan for one as the cooldown is long)

- Cooldown is 22s and reduces by 2s per level

Now this is the tricky one in terms of decisiveness. This can throw you into a fight or out of it. If you make the wrong decision you will have to wait a long while before you can use it again. I normally reserve it to reposition if needed. However the damage it deals is based on your passive. Use it wisely.

Cocktail Party - R

Adriana throws a Molotov cocktail at the targeted location. The Molotov cocktail explodes upon landing, dealing damage and knocking back enemies. After the explosion, the Molotov cocktail leaves behind a fire for 5 seconds. Adriana can throw a maximum of 3 Molotov cocktails.

IMPORTANT NOTES

- You have 3 cocktails the damage scales 70/130/190 + (AP 40%) for the explosion

- After explosion the burn is based on your passive

- You can knock enemies into or out of different zones as well as apply pressure

Hey whoa 3 whole cocktails? That's what I'm talking about! Use this to apply pressure where you need. Lead enemies away from you OR into you depending on the situation. Depending on their location from the center of the blast is the direction they'll be knocked into.

Ability Leveling And Combos

Passive > R > Q > W > E

Adriana deals most of her damage through her passive and Q.

COMBOS

You'll want to be throwing down your W and spraying with Q to get your passive burn and your Q burn.

Use your E to reposition and set up to spray for your Q if needed. If you aren't going to win a fight instead use your E to get out and throw down abilities for kiting. Remember your passive and your W slow enemies.

Use your R to force enemies to either go around it or go through it.

I've found CD items to be useful as Adriana has nothing going for her without her abilities. Please comment if you have tried anything else that is successful.

UPGRADE YOUR HEELS TO RED SHOES IF YOU CAN

They are legendary so it may be hard.

Notable mention are these IF you definitely can swing them. I will run them if I can because of the movespeed. However going with the heels to red shoes is the more safe option.

Auto Arms are nice if you can somehow squeeze out the components for them.

Route

Alright this is the fastest route and you get your weapon upgraded by your 3rd zone. That is when most people are starting to fight.

If you can pick up a tree of life and meteorite go for it. Tree of life, stone, and meteorite build into force core for your Auto-Arms.

Selling Out

My section to say hey stop by my stream.

I stream a variety of things Trading Card Openings, Eternal Return, League of Legends, Single Player Story games, you name it!

Conclusion

Adriana has a super high difficulty cap. Those that play her are looking to manage the battlefield and she excels in squads or duos for this reason.

As a solo player it will be hard, but I have netted wins with her consistently just from positioning and area denial.

I'll be updating this guide as I find more ideas and with more comments. If a patch comes out I'll be sure to hop on and figure out the ins and outs for the best girl.

See ya all around thanks for reading.
