Tempered Dragon Bullet

The payoff that links your gun to the burn: shooting a burning target can detonate an elemental blast around it, and each DoT stack multiplies the explosion. With high stacks maintained this becomes your main crowd-clear and a strong single-target add-on.

Quick answer

PICK IT WHEN

Take it when your current route already produces the companion, crowd, boss signals. The value comes from repeating that event, not from the item name or rarity alone.

WATCH OUT

If none of its triggers are happening yet, keep the slot open for a pick that strengthens the engine already on screen.
