[b34] Blastwave and burning wake hurts caster

#1 Post by budswell »

Not sure if this is intended, but doesn't seem cool to me.
If you have Burning Wake sustained and then cast Blastwave you will take damage too. You don't take damage from a normal Blastwave but the wake will occupy the space you are standing in and then damage you.

It's meant to function that way so that it can remove negative effects from you.

Finalmasters right, this is not a bug. It's so cleansing flames or whatever can heal you.

Flameshock and Burning Wake do the same thing. I understand that it's also intended in that case (though having more to do with creating a functionally useful cone than intentionally putting Burning Wake on your own tile). Just surprised the OP didn't point it out.

OK, thanks for clearing that up for me. I've never delved into abilites where burning myself is a good thing, still more to learn.
Hadn't noticed flameshock has the same effect as I'm having fun playing with the Wildfire spells for the first time.
