 ==Skill Design==
-This [[skill]] is quite useful, since it has good damage, nice range, and a very small cooldown. This makes Firebomb a good crowd control spell, especially in narrow corridors where enemies can be trapped in a hail of fire.
+This [[skill]] is quite useful, since it has good damage, nice range, and a very small cooldown. This makes Firebomb a good crowd control spell, especially in narrow corridors where enemies can be trapped in a hail of fire. The casting (throwing) rate is slower than some other Witch Doctor skills, and thus the damage/second isn't comparable for single target killing.
 Upon explosion, the flames briefly form the shape of a large, menacing humanoid creature.

-'''Firebomb''' was originally called [[Skull of Flame]] and was introduced in the [[WWI 2008]] gameplay video. At the time, the skill was at Tier I in the [[Spirit Skill Tree]]. At [[BlizzCon 2009]], Firebomb was located in the [[Voodoo Skill Tree]] but seemed otherwise unchanged. [[Flux]] found it to be very useful:[http://diablo.incgamers.com/blog/comments/full-witch-doctor-skills/]

 <blockquote>''Skulls can actually be thrown too far, in some exploitative ways. Several times I saw a pack of Fallen or other monsters on some ledge way of in the distance, in a location I was supposed to have to walk way down around some boulders and along narrow ledges and paths to reach. Yet I could freely hurl my firebombs to those locations, with perfect accuracy, and was able to kill enemies who had no way to fight back. Naturally, I did so whenever possible, if only to watch the Fallen scurry around.</blockquote>

 By [[BlizzCon 2010]], (after skill trees were eliminated) Firebomb had been moved way down the skill system, to Tier 5. It was one of the Witch Doctor's preset skills in the [[Battle Arena]] demo.
-Skill tiers were removed for the [[July 2011 Press Event]], and Firebomb became a level 11 skill.
