Vaal Molten Shell is a vaal skill that temporarily grants you extra armour and causes you to deal a burst of fire damage for each hit you take, for a short duration.
Skill Functions and Interactions
- Duration: Skill duration will increase the duration of Vaal Molten Shell.
- Spell Echo: When supported by Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Spell Echo", Vaal Molten Shell will apply its buff once (the additional armour is not applied twice), but will detonate twice per hit, so the damage output is effectively doubled.
- Crit Chance: Vaal Molten Shell's chance to crit is decided when the user initially casts the spell. It uses the user's crit chance to determine if all Vaal Molten Shell procs will crit or not crit. This means that the spell will either crit for every proc of the duration or none of them, making a

Strategy
Unlike its Module Error: Too many skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Molten Shell". Please choose only one of the following ids:
GravicusMoltenShell - Base duration is 10.00 seconds, Deals (143-2698) to (214-4048) Fire Damage, Shields break after (752-4460) total Damage is prevented, (4352-19367) additional Armour (page)
GoatmanMoltenShellInvasion - Base duration is 10.00 seconds, Deals (15-5246) to (23-7869) Fire Damage, Shields break after (4-2648) total Damage is prevented, (162-4334) additional Armour (page), Vaal Molten Shell will persist for the full duration, regardless of how many times an explosion is triggered. This unique property offers potentially vastly more utility than Module Error: Too many skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Molten Shell". Please choose only one of the following ids:
GravicusMoltenShell - Base duration is 10.00 seconds, Deals (143-2698) to (214-4048) Fire Damage, Shields break after (752-4460) total Damage is prevented, (4352-19367) additional Armour (page)
GoatmanMoltenShellInvasion - Base duration is 10.00 seconds, Deals (15-5246) to (23-7869) Fire Damage, Shields break after (4-2648) total Damage is prevented, (162-4334) additional Armour (page) at the cost of less availability. Because of this, it is recommended that Vaal Molten Shell be saved for an occasion in which it will offer the greatest benefit, such as during an encounter with a Unique mob or even a troublesome Rare.
Due to the nature of Vaal Molten Shell, it has synergy with support gems that utilize the potentially frequent explosions, such as Stun or Life Leech; however, the rather steep soul cost of Vaal Molten Shell gates the strength of the gem. In addition, while the armor offered during Vaal Molten Shell's duration is first-rate, it may cause conflicts with Module Error: No skills found with q_where = skill.active_skill_name="Cast When Damage Taken".
