Talk:Burning

From Guild Wars Wiki

I just ran into a few Destroyers in Raven's Point Dungeon which are "immune to burning". What's going on here?

Wouldnt "They're on Fire!" count as a skill that exclusively deals with burning?--Justice 06:46, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

there on fire wouldnt work because there not on fire there just immune to it so it wouldnt trigger --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:116.240.249.216 (talk).

um? sorry i wasnt answering a question i was asking my own sepperate one. will just add it to the small list of skills the specificaly target burning.--Justice 05:18, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

"exclusive effects for burning"

What differentiates an exclusive effect for burning as opposes to a non-exclusive effect for burning? For example, "They're On Fire!" is listed as having such an exclusive effect, because "it does nothing if they aren't burning". But then again, the same is true for Glowing Signet. I am confused.

your right on that. Who ever started that list missed alot of skills that should be on it. I added "they're on fire!". To me any skill that does nothing but specifically targets burning belongs on the list.--Justice 06:10, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

changed my mind on "definition". Any skill that says the word burning without implying application of buring probably fits on that list.--Justice 06:16, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

I'd argue that the note should be removed...this article already contains a list of skills that cause, remove, prevent, or benefit from burning. Why are we working to reproduce an incomplete copy in the notes section? --Belker 19:30, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Agreed.--Justice 08:57, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

Avatar, Spirits, and Jets

So why is avatar of melandru only listed here, blind, and disease as a skill that prevents a specific condition? Also, why does poison have a note that talks about poison spouts, jets, and darts but this page does not as flame jets, flame darts, and flame spouts clearly exist? Finally, I'm fairly certain that spirits can be... effected? (or is that affected?)... by other conditions aside from burning such as weakness and cracked armor. I know they're not fleshy, but I swear I've given a spirit at least weakness before... can anyone cofirm/refute this? I'm fairly certain that they can't be given deep wound, but what about the other not-fleshy-requiring conditions? ---- Timeoffire45 04:23, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

forget the spirit bit - i'm an idiot. I must be imagining things... the rest still stands, though -- Timeoffire45 04:30, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
