Talk:Conflagration

I have serious doubts about the correctness of that note. Has anyone tested it? This will be the only spirit in the game that maintains any notion of who summoned it, if the note is indeed correct. F G 20:46, 24 April 2006 (CDT)

 * Yeah, but it says "for creatures within its range ... your ...". That's the part that threw me off or I'd have simply nixed the note like you did. F G 20:50, 24 April 2006 (CDT)
 * What FG said. Damn edit conflicts. &mdash; Stabber &#x270d; 20:52, 24 April 2006 (CDT)
 * Why would it say "For creatures within its range" then? I'm confused! | Chuiu 21:00, 24 April 2006 (CDT)
 * The creatures within its range are the creatures for which your arrows do fire damage? I dunno, it makes no sense. WTF, Anet? &mdash; Stabber &#x270d; 21:06, 24 April 2006 (CDT)

I got the actually description now, seems more reasonable :p Skuld  14:03, 30 April 2006 (CDT)

Does this actually negates effect of other spirits like Winnowing?
 * Things like winnowing and order of pain will no longer add their damage to bow attacks, if that's what you mean. --68.142.14.19 21:48, 21 July 2006 (CDT)

Conflagration is bugged, possibly two-fold.
 * Conflagration only affects physical bows. Shocking, Icy, and Ebon + Mark of Rodgort + Conflagration = no effect.  It's likely that it works exactly the same way Greater Conflagration does, performing a status check on the damage type of your bow AFTER applying the bowstring, but BEFORE Judge's Insight, Kindle Arrows, Winter, and the Conjure [Element] damage type check flag.
 * Conflagration affects Bone Fiends. Winnowing + Bone Fiends = +4 damage to attacks.  Winnowing + Conflagration + Bone Fiends = no damage bonus and a fiery arrow animation.  What's wrong with this?  Favourable Winds does NOT affect Bone Fiends, and both skills distinctly mention arrows.  So is their attack an 'arrow' or not?  I'm actually fairly certain their attack is functionally identicle to an arrow, and Favourable Winds has an exclusion in the code to prevent it from triggering on Bone Fiend attacks, while Conflagration, being based off of Greater Conflagration, does not, and nobody noticed.  Another possibility is that Conflagration affects all physical projectiles, and that Bone Fiends and Bows are the only ones there are in the game at this time.  Depending on whether or not it affects Spears, this hypothesis is easily tested.  In any case, the problem seems linked to Conflagration, which already has a strike against it, as mentioned above.
