Notes

• A character suffering from burning is engulfed in flames.
  • Almost every skill that mentions this condition uses the term set on fire (rather than burning) in the non-concise description.
  • Despite this language and imagery, burning does not cause any fire damage. Consequently, skills that affect fire damage (e.g. Winter) have no effect on this condition.
  • Burning does not change the color of the health bar (unlike other conditions that cause degeneration).
• It is the only condition that affects spirits.
• It is one of the few conditions without any weapon or armor upgrades that alter its duration.
• Only a few creatures are immune to burning: some Titans, Burning Spirits, Flowstone Elementals, Magma Blisters, and all Destroyers (except for the The Great Destroyer).
