Outriders Pyromancer class guide: Best builds, gears and skill tree progression

Out of the four classes in Square Enix's recent third-person RPG, players seem to be favoring the Outriders Pyromancer class.

The popularity behind the Outriders Pyromancer class is due to its health regeneration dynamic and fiery skills. Choosing this class in the game will allow players to recover health whenever enemies marked by Pyromancer skills are killed.

In theory, the Outriders Pyromancer class is a medium-range class that controls fire. Players using this class can cover their enemies in flames, incinerate entire squads, and simultaneously gain healing points by eliminating opponents.

Popular YouTuber TheTeawrex has uploaded a comprehensive video that explains all the hidden details of the Outriders Pyromancer. The guide will help players with the best builds for the Outriders Pyromancer class and help plan their Skill Tree progression in-game.

The Outriders Pyromancer class has two distinct traits. Players using this class get 10% additional anomaly power, and skills mark damages enemies for 15 seconds.

These two basic abilities, combined with the proper builds and high-tier gear, can transform this class into a war machine. Players using the Outriders Pyromancer class can go on World Tier farms after they have maxed out their character.

The three ultimate class tree progressions that players can achieve with the Outriders Pyromancer class are Ash Breaker, Fire Storm and Tempest. Players can only choose one of these by unlocking them with Class Points in the Skill Tree.

Players also need a comprehensive grasp of the skill tree before they upgrade their Outriders Pyromancer class. The best way to plan the character's skill tree progression is to check the Class Point upgrades in Outriders Talent Calculator.

YouTuber TheTeawrex suggests that players using the Outriders Pyromancer class should start with the "Magma Golem" Skill Tree upgrade. This will give players 10% health bonus each round.

He also suggests that players need to use their Class Points on Skill Tree nodes like Unquenchable, Master Of Armor, Wildfire (10% skill cooldown), Extinction (increase 20% damage on weak enemies) and Distant Flame.

Following this skill tree progression will help players that are using the Outriders Pyromancer class to unlock Fire Storm.

The final skill node for Magma Elemental is one of the best progressions in the skill tree, as it gives the Pyromancer character "Armor and Resistance piercing by 45%."

YouTuber TheTeawrex mentioned that the gear and weapons he used were complimentary of his character. The Outriders Pyromancer class has a massive arsenal, and players need to take advantage of that during combat.

He suggest that players should use the Roaring Umbra Light Machinegun. The Perks and Mods he uses for this weapon are Kinetic Stomp and Ultimate Storm Whip.

As a secondary weapon, he uses The Anemoi Automatic Shotgun. The Perks and Mods he uses for this weapon are Moaning Winds and Clip Combustion.

TheTeawrex mentioned that the armor pieces he used for his Outriders Pyromancer class could be upgraded and crafted for better gear.

He used the Helmet of the Acari (headgear), Armor of the Acari (upper armor), Waistcloth of the Acari (lower armor), Brood Mother (boots), and Clairvoiyant's Gloves (hands).

This entire armor build allowed him to use Seismic Absorber, which increases the upper armour's resistance. In theory, this is one of the best builds for the Outriders Pyromancer class.

Players can choose to swap out pieces of armor for high-tier gears and simultaneously select different skill nodes to diversify the character's potential.
