You can level in two main ways:

Option 1:

You pick Tasalio, Cleansing Water as your first ascendancy and run RF using the new mastery that gives life regen based on how much overcapped fire resist you have.
Purity of fire + Purity of elements + Tasalio will give you 150 flat hp regen alone. If you're doing this i suggest looking into Poxh RF with the obvious difference in ascendancy choice.
This option will need to respec some nodes, but not many.

Option 2:

Before level 12 i usually run melee but this is preference, anything you choose will be weak.

At 12 use Exsanguinate and rush to "Canabalistic Rite" following the same path as the skilltree link. Then get "Vanquisher" + the mastery and after that path straight for Elemental overload and lastly Mental Rapidity.
1st Ascendancy you get "Ngamahu, Flame's Advance" and as soon as you have this get "Avatar of Fire". Whenever you feel like swapping to Reap you can, 4L would be Reap + Spell cascade + Faster Casting + Echo. Use Faster Casting because we dont have much cast speed early and it feel's bad using echo without it.

The fire based supports wont really be strong before you have ascended and also grabbed "Avatar of Fire".
