Where to find

  • *Can be found in a chest in the Illusion section of Sorcerous Vault, Sorcerous Sundries.
    • Once in the vault, upon finding the named doors, go through the "Silverhand" door and in the next area destroy the door labeled "Illusion" (trying to enter the door normally will not work). Through the door is the room with the chest X: 366 Y: 941.

Notes

  • It is not listed in-game, but Thermodynamo can only activate once per attack, even when hitting multiple targets with Cleave or similar abilities.
  • BUG (Hotfix #9): Despite the tooltip claiming that the hellfire ignores fire immunity, it actually does not. As can be seen in the screenshot (https://i.imgur.com/3ETRA8B.png) the imp took no damage. Mousing over says "Damage roll: 6 (1d6 Fire) (Hellfire) = 6. damage: 6 - 6 Fire (Immune)" but that didn't show up in the screenshot. Fire resistance is correctly ignored by the Hellfire portion of the attack.
