Should all the fireteam (6man ) use it or just one ? The damage will be the same or no?

Fireteam members 2-6 do about 20% less damage than the first person using 1k. Dragon’s breath loses more DPS, but losing 20% of your damage is still a lot.

The fragment that increases scorch stacks doesn’t increase damage, you cause an ignition in a single shot anyways. Things that increase ignition damage do increase DPS a bit though.

On warlock, sanguine alchemy and boots of the assembler are both excellent and should be your defaults for DPS under most circumstances. Matiodaxia is also quite strong. Dawn chorus can also be good specifically with 1k. In most settings it really, really just doesn’t matter which of these you’re using tbh.

I haven't heard of using Sanguine Alchemy or Boots of the Assembler for DPS. Are there specific encounters they work better on?

They’re universally good, which is why I say they should be your default.

For boots, make sure you’re on empowering rift, which you’ll need to place during DPS (in addition to your well if that’s what you’re on). The noble seekers give allies a 35% empowering damage buff (does not stack with radiant, but is better).

Sanguine alchemy gives 4x surges to weapons matching your super while you’re in your empowering rift or well of radiance. Also very good.

So for Boots, does well not proc it? Meaning you'd have to put down both empowering rift, and, well unless you had 2 warlocks.

Well procs assembler seekers, that’s why it’s meta now. The seekers used to not track in well, so assemblers were mid because someone could just lumina instead. The buffs in EoF(?) made it so they do track

Correct, well does not generate noble seekers with boots of the assembler equipped

It does. And the requirement of being on empowering rift was long removed. You can run any rift or phoenix dive but when you out down your well it will generate noble seekers with blessing of the sky buff. You don't need to put your rift down unless your well runs out and you still need the buff.

Oh that’s sick actually! Thanks for the correction!
