Version history

Patch	Changes
November 28, 2023	This trait no longer reduces the cooldown of torch skills. Increased burning stacks from 1 to 2.
August 08, 2017	Path of Fire pre-patch: This trait now grants a flat 20% recharge reduction but no longer causes torch skills to remove conditions. Instead, it causes torch skills to apply an additional stack of burning. (Does not affect phantasm attacks.)
September 29, 2015	Fixed an incorrect skill fact that displayed the recharge reduction as a percentage instead of a duration.
June 23, 2015	Specialization update: The Pledge has been added to the game.
