This will allow you more frequent castings of Black Hole and Meteor. Prodigy will help to replenish your pool of Arcane Power quicker every time you cast Magic Missile. Since they're bunched up, you'll likely hit many with each casting. Magic Missile will damage with fire element, add more fire DoT, and pierce through enemies. Meteor on the bunched mobs for a spike in damage as well as a pool of fire damage over time. Conflagration passive skill is triggered by fire skills. Black Hole will bunch and hold some mobs together damaging them with fire element. Hit with Black Hole, drop a Meteor or two on them, finish with Magic Missile. After that, you can build up the other skills on what you have.Īs a very quick example MM-Conflagrate, passive skill Conflagration, passive skill Prodigy, Meteor-no rune, Black Hole-Blazar If you use the MM rune Conflagrate it will work with the Passive Conflagration but not Cold Blooded. If you use the MM rune Glacial Spike, it works well with the Passive Skill Cold Blooded but not Conflagration since that works with the fire element.

Let's take the Magic Missile skill as the example. You have to look beyond individual skills. It's all about the synchronicity between the skills and your gear. If it were a matter of one skill simply being better than the rest, then there would be no discussion on character skill builds.

Simply put, they all have their advantages and disadvantages.

My best advice is to not look for the 'best' skill in each category (this case Primary).
