Notes

• The in-game tooltip does not specify that this buff can only be given to an ally who is wielding weapons.
• The target's equipped weapon will receive the same visual effect as if it were dipped in a  Fire Surface.

Bugs

• The in-game tooltip states the effect provides a movement speed bonus of 1.5 m / 5 ft, but it is actually 5 m / 17 ft.
• When applied to a weapon with the Thrown property, the effect is not lost on hitting an enemy with a  Throw attack, and remains for the full duration. The damage is still added.
  • A similar issue is present with  Curving Shot where if the initial shot misses, but the curving shot connects, the buff is not consumed.
