Inferno is a Sorceress Skill in Diablo II.

Lore
''Using this spell, a Sorceress can reach into the depths of her being and issue forth a gout of fire, incinerating any opponents standing within its reach. ''

Synergies
Inferno is the Sorceress' first fire-based high damage spell. It is basically a flamethrower that not only deals damage quickly, but also has a tendency to drain mana pool quickly with careless use. As Inferno's level raises so does the damage it does and its range. The torrent of flame pierces through enemies, regardless of how many get in its path, and grows in range with level.
 * Gives synergy to:
 * Meteor: +3% Average burn damage per level
 * +1% Average burn damage per level
 * Receives synergy from:
 * Warmth: +16% Fire damage per level

Combined with the proper equipment along with Fire Mastery, a Sorceress can deal very large amounts of damage, from a very long range, with Inferno. Due to the limited area of the flames only damaging enemies within a line of contact maintained by aiming left and right, slow travel time of the projectile and inability to move while skill is cast allows enemies to often move quickly in and out of range, observed damage per second is actually 1/3 to 1/2 of the average damage per second listed on the skill's mouse-over. In early versions of the game, only the first enemy hit was actually damaged, despite visually all of them being hit.
