How to learn

• Pyroquickness Hat

Notes

• The conditions for activating Fiery Return are to deal fire damage with a non-cantrip spell or a melee spell attack roll.
  • Attacks with a  Flame Blade conjured by the druid spell count as melee spell attacks, so they trigger Fiery Return. However, this is not true of a Flame Blade summoned by a mephistopheles tiefling's racial feature or a permanent Flame Blade acquired through the exploit described here.
  • The  Daredevil Gloves can turn ranged spell attacks into melee spell attacks, so cantrips like  Fire Bolt can trigger Fiery Return when paired with the gloves.

Bugs

• If Fiery Return is triggered with a  Bonus Action (for example, with  Metamagic: Quickened Spell), the extra bonus action granted by this passive is wasted and consumed immediately.
•  Hellcrawler, a class action granted by the  Helldusk Boots, triggers Fiery Return, essentially negating the bonus action cost.
•  Searing Smite does not trigger Fiery Return.
