What This Weapon Does
A fiery spell that burns enemies and melts ice.
This spell uses your ship's CPU to set your enemies on fire. It deals the listed value and instantly melts ice equipment.
Combat Role
This weapon does not use the normal miss check, does not roll Critical hits, deals damage. Its listed values scale by item level, and the table below shows the progression available up to level 75.
How to Read the Table
Each row is one usable item level up to player level 75. Requirements include player level first, then linked research requirements. Time values use HH:MM:SS, or Dd HH:MM:SS for durations of at least one day.

Use and Planning
Upgraded Fireball is a Support damage tool and an answer to I.C.E-style slowing effects.
Evaluate this weapon through the same questions every time: does it hit reliably, does it deal the kind of damage you need, can your build support its ammo and cooldown, and does it solve the target you are fighting? Shields, Dodge, repair windows, group positioning, and control effects can matter more than the largest number in the Core stats column.
Main requirements: Weaponry 33, Support techniques 28, Flame Concentration 11.
Check the highest row you can currently use before spending Uranium. A lower-level item that fits your build can be better than a higher-level item with the wrong scaling or combat rule.
FAQ
Should I buy every new level?
Only when the new level gives enough value for your current activity. Compare the Uranium price, ammunition cost, cooldown, and requirements before replacing an item that already works.
What matters more: raw stats or combat rules?
Both matter. Raw stats decide the base value, but combat rules decide whether the weapon can miss, crit, pierce shields, apply a state, or support allies.
