Author's comment about this tower:

Fire variant of the other dragon roosts.

I'm a little uncertain if this needs to exist in its current form if Flametongue Totem also exists.
I don't think Fire needs two spell damage aura towers at unique. I have problems with Flametongue Totem, and I'd prefer if this one had an on-hit effect like Black/Blue dragon roosts, to;
1. Match the cycle
2. Take advantage of the bouncing attack

I wanted to avoid re-using hp regen debuff as I already used it for the Blue Dragon Roost. I went with something basic like Green Dragon Roost which also just has a multricrit aura. Perhaps I could change this aura's bonuses into purely physical ones, i. e. a combination of damage%, crit chance and crit damage? Its effect should also fit its benevolent sounding tower flavour text and ability name.

In all fairness, this tower did come before Flametongue Totem.

However, Flametongue Totem has strong justifications for its aura effects (not biased at all right) whereas this support doesn't really do anything unique. Green Dragon Roost aura is unique in that its the only multicrit aura.

I don't really have any suggestions as there are a million things you could do, but I don't believe this tower can stay as nothing but a +spell damage% aura. You've created more interesting mechanics on other towers (and in brainstorming in the discord) so I know you can do better.

Red Dragon Roost has been updated to v3!

Reworked Hyperthermia: it now increases damage taken based on remaining health.
