Righteous Fire

Skill Functions and Interactions

Life Degeneration Effect: While this skill is active, you will take fire degeneration damage (damage over time). This damage can be mitigated with fire resistance. Enemies nearby will also take fire degeneration damage which can be mitigated with fire resistance. Righteous Fire will damage energy shield and keep it from regenerating while the skill is active. Keystones, passives, and item mods meant to avoid or block spell damage will not work on Righteous Fire's degeneration damage. Characters with only 1 life due to Chaos Inoculation cannot inflict damage with Righteous Fire's degeneration because Righteous Fire will stop instantly upon activation.

The effect can be ended prematurely by any effect which removes burning, such as flasks with the "dousing" suffix.

Spell Damage: Righteous Fire provides a large bonus to spell damage during its effect. Note that this is More damage, meaning it is a multiplier to overall damage.

Passives: The burning effect that damages both the player and enemies is not affected by x% increased Spell Damage. As of Patch 1.0.2 x% increased Burning Damage and x% increased Fire Damage no longer increases the self-inflicted damage, but does increase damage to monsters.
