How Flame Weapons and The Enflamed Status Effect Works | Ark: Survival Ascended

[@Doth_]

Some stuff that's not in the video that's relevant:
- If your hit your own tribemate/tame with a flame arrow or flamethrower they will take full damage, but if you flame them with a fire wyvern, they will take direct damage and the enflamed status effect will proc, but it will do no damage.
- Oil jars that you throw down and light on fire seem to work the same as a flamethrower or flame arrow when it comes to the enflamed status effect. Direct damage is 20.
- You can hit players riding tames with flamethrowers and fire wyvern breath. And id assume flame arrows but I didn't test.
- You can unearth buried tames easily with flamethrowers and fire wyvern breath.

you can also heal from wyvern milk and stack that on top of med brews to heal threw the on fire effect on your character

@@adamcoulson3964 didnt notice it heals. Ill have to check that out

[@mochiboot6502]

Chugging a 40 is one of the only ways to reduce the effect of flames.... Man, can relate to that one.

[@MrNickCantrell]

You got my vote with the "as of now, they do fuck to prevent the status effect"

[@johnathanpabon9433]

You should do a video about the fasos

Thanks for this information. I finally tames my first ever phoenix a few days ago and really had no idea how the fire damage was working towards taming it. I just threw oil pots and used a flamethrower on in a bunch. It was a huge struggle and took me like 7 hours because the heatwaves were kinda buggy. I never did figure out if it was better to fully lay the trigger down with the flamethrower or if it stacked with the oil pots. I wonder how the Phoenix's attacks work with all this. Its blaze attack seems kinda bugged and doesnt count as a kill for the phoenix when getting xp i noticed, but the flyby and bite attack do.

What about insects, most importantly the rhynio ? Do insects take more damage from flames or the same ? Does the rhynio resin armor effect the resistance?

[@Doth_]

there is no increase in damage to bugs from fire. My friend talked about this and i tested it. The resin armor does provide resistance

@@Doth_ thank you

[@Hollow_Ichigo]

Their breath now hurts us unfortunately

[@StickyDrawz]

breath will be dealt with in this next patch

[@Doth_]

I did see that. Ill make an update if its something big or just pin something in here

[@DarkDarcek]

Should the Beer be applied after your hit with fire or before??

[@Doth_]

Ideally you would want to before but you can only use a beer every so often so you might wanna wait till you actually get hit so you dont waste it.

[@DarkDarcek]

@@Doth_ Thanks,from trying it even when the buff is already in use it helps.I actually stopped dying to the breath because of the Beer! thanks again!

[@solxr6967]

Can you still destroy generators with flame arrows? I tried it and it doesn’t work anymore. Idk if it was a glitch or not

[@Doth_]

@solxr6967 I know in the recent patch notes they made it so you can't damage wind turbines with flame arrows. Unsure about gens

[@badmonkey2468]

they should fix the milk

[@Doth_]

I agree
