Now the Salamandra traits are pretty neat and got me brainstorming cool ideas... unfortunately, Flame Art (Explosion) in practice is underwhelming.

OOC Salamandra used Fir.
Spatial Ravager takes 92 Fire magical damage. (Fir / Flamberg)
Spatial Ravager takes 6 Fire magical damage. (Fir / Flamberg)

It seems to get hit by both RES and Magic Armor, making it only churn out very small numbers.

I think this is a pretty simple fix though, all that's needed would be to change the damage from the Explosions caused by the trait to protection-ignoring damage.

I thought it did already. Yeah, I'm all for it.

This almost seems like a bug report, but if it is indeed intentional it should be changed. Putting a static 25 damage against resistance and magic armor makes it completely useless, especially when enough foresight went into warding off cheese by requiring a damage threshold to trigger it.

Admittedly, I am partially responsible for making Flame Art Explosion weaker, even if my intention was only to prevent things from getting too out of hand with other weapons. I do agree that protection-ignoring damage would make sense in this case, given that you're unlikely to be able to trigger it with any multi-hit attacks anymore in the first place.


Also can we have the same done for Amalgama's Spirit Shot please-

[Neus]

I'll make this protection ignoring.
