Compared to all other strikes and even a decent weapon, Fireborn just means you die immediately after returning to life. Totally useless.
A hunter melee is apparently 50x stronger. Basically Fireborn is a crucible joke nowadays.

You're obviously a noob with the warlock if you think that. Fireborn is the best perk in the crucible. You get killed, wait for them to walk over your ghost, self res; Radiance + Scorch Melee = 1 Hit kill Radiance + Grenades = so much death And if you have your strength and discipline up then you can make these things come much faster, but if you have the praxic fire it's pretty much instant. Fireborn is a great perk when used and timed correctly
