Considering that i dont think its reasonable to recommend Amaterasu for MTing at this stage.
Oh? And would you care to explain this "ideal fire team" then?

You mean that in 99% of the cases when things matter... doesn't count somehow? Care to explain how on that one as well?

That is Adramelech gives 45% elemental at MLB, while Cthugha only gives 40% char atk at MLB. Adramalech's atk stats are also much better than Cthugha. Cthugha also gives 20% HP so you might want that if you can't get your hp high enough to tank an OD or two.

For fire, usually ppl go for dps though, assuming your assault value is at least 117 (9 x SR disaster weapons) Adramelech comes out ahead in every conceivable scenario except the one Slashley pointed out, where you have friend Belial + soup weapon + elemental advantage, where Cthugha might come out ahead but only slightly.
You never want to use Orbs on Cthugha though, since Crom's Crotch has the same effect with WAY more stats. Good enough stats that you might not even regret it once she becomes available in Epic Quests. Maybe.
