i am sure that " can not be ignited..." will deactivate RF

Maybe someone could confirm that who tested RF with Ashrend Unique or the new shield?

that shield is more for HP RF builds. Shavronne's users will definitely not need it. Nothing beats 400+ ES shields for Shavronne's users

One of the devs responded a few pages earlier about that - if you can't be ignited it means that you can't get a new 'burning' debuff, but i won't pput out old fires ;)

(also RF is not affected by stuff like can't be ignited at all, the dev said that it would be quite weird if you had chance to avoid ignite and your RF casting would fail)

EDIT: found the quotes:

That shield does not turn off or prevent righteous fire damage as it says "CANNOT BE IGNITED". Righteous fire does BURNING damage.


Burning and Ignite are more or less the same thing. There are forms of burning that do not come from ignite(fire trap ground effect for example), however for the most part being immune to ignite means being immune to burning. Righteous Fire says it ignites you, and it is a standard burn, which means this shield won't work with RF at low life. The way I see it, this shield is designed to use RF at full life, and it turns it off automatically when at low life. Alternatively as a low life high fire resist shield for something very specific, which I'm not seeing much use for(being immune to ignite I guess means you don't get ignited when you get dmg reflected on a crit but that seems fairly useless).
No. Being ignited is not a state, it's an action - that of gaining the burning debuff. Cannot be ignited means you can't be set on fire, not that any fire already on you is magically extinguished - it prevents ignition, it doesn't removing burning.
I'm pretty sure RF gets around ignite avoidance, since you're chosing to set yourself on fire in that case.


after beeing asked if they think it makes sense that it is taht way:

I'm pretty confidant it'd be weirder if we went the other way and investing in chance to avoid being ignited passives meant that RF sometimes arbitrarily didn't cast for you.

Mechanically, RF doesn't ignite you, it applies a debuff that deals burning damage to you and some other things. "Ignite" in a mechanical sense means to apply the specific "burning" elemental status ailment.

final question would be the 25% more fire resi would it affect the total or only the 75%

See the dev posts quoted above by Sony_Black.

Just to add (as the query will probably rise again), they also stated that the 'ignited' part of the RF text will be changed as it is misleading.

HF with RF
Casually casual.
