Notes[edit]

  • Damage(4x): 5280 with Ravenous Discipline.
  • Creates a fire field which pulses 1 second of Burning.png Burning for 5 seconds.
  • The center of the blast is approximately 480 units away from where player is facing, with radius of 240.
  • Cannot cause a critical hit. [verification requested]
  • Due to the delay of the attack, this is the only engage ability that does not trigger weapon-swap effects, such as Quick Draw, or Superior Sigil of Geomancy. The delay also allows quickly mounting a different mount and performing a second engage skill while the attack lasts, if no enemies where hit by the first strike.
Despite being a fire-themed skill, it does not cause fire damage.
