↖ Core Concept
The key characteristic of a melee ignite elementalist is killing enemies from afar with one powerful strike aimed at setting them ablaze. By scaling AOE and ignite damage, the build provides players with exhilarating efficient mapping experience. Ascendant class plays a critical role in enhancing ignites and providing AOE coverage thus ensuring your fire will spread far and wide.
↖ Skill Gems and Setup
The core skill gem for this build is leap slam which will work great with quadrilla leap slam MTX that adds some visual effects during attack speed buffs application stages since other than increasing its static damage, it has no similarity or resemblance with this particular skill whatsoever. Enhancing leap slam requires some gems like:
- Leap Slam: Main skill that benefits from increase in AOE.
- Deadly Ailments: Amplifies ailment's DoT damage.
- Elemental Damage with Attacks: Increase elemental damages dealt by attacks.
- Swift Affliction: Raise down time damages up their effect.
- Ignite Proliferation: Ignites spread to nearby enemies.

However, Fist of War is preferred over Volatility for optimal AOE coverage due to its synergy with the build's playstyle – striking once and moving on after obliterating enemy packs.

Certain items are essential for maximizing the potential of this build:
- Weapon: Void Forge provides high damage output.
- Chest: Explode chest with additional curse mod provides chain reactions.

- Heart of Destruction causing more AOE area effect range increase & damaging

Conclusion:
In order to lower the enemy resistance even more, so that they can be successfully ignited, you should employ your Arcanist brand with Flammability and Elemental weakness when facing bosses or tougher enemies.
By concentrating primarily on ignites and AOE damage, players can have an exquisite mapping experience in terms of visuals and damage output as well. Don't forget to adjust your gear and passive tree according to your style of play, as well as the content you are involved in.
