PC Version
Normal Difficulty
On Drayan Core, I noticed that Piercing Fire 3 for a Sniper Rifle was setting enemies on fire.
This may be as intended, so apologies if this is not a bug, but it seemed odd.

Do you know what Sniper Rifle you are using? This might be a bug with the weapon ... this feature isn't supposed to be out until Templar Assassins.

Vae Victus - can you share the Templar's weapon, gear, and armor? If you were a Soldier and were carrying the Behemoth Rifle, this would be expected. So it is possible you are wearing some gear that is indicating you are using fiery shot. P.s. I have confirmed this is not being caused by the Talent alone. It must be due to the weapon / gear / armor combo.

The spoilers are strong in this thread.

There are also humans with flamethrowers that go up in flames when they die?

There are also humans with flamethrowers that go up in flames when they die? And some Narvidians I think? Maybe this is the cause. |

Have you ever seen what happens to a person with a flame thrower the ruptures IRL. Not pretty! I think in game that any flame enemy going poof and leaving the square on fire is realistic. Makes perfect sense to me.

ntsheep - definitely agreed and we won't be changing it. But it might explain the "bug report"

I am sorry that I cannot say for certain what the other elements of the Templar were.
I think it was just a straight Sniper Rifle for a Scout with Leviathan Ranger armor, Armored Gauntlet, Reinforced Pilot Kit, and an Ocular Scanner, but I am on another map now (Ferrari Lance) and I cannot reproduce the issue on Drayan Core. (I do not know if it is possible to replay specific previously completed maps?)
I did have a soldier with the Behemoth rifle on that round, but the behemoth rifle (which does do fire damage), is not setting anything on fire visually (e.g. it is not acting like a Hydra character's attack or like the attack I saw on Drayan Core with the Sniper Rifle) on the current map I am playing on, so I do not think that was the source of the flames.
I will keep my eye out and record more information about loadout if this happens again.
If there were human flamethrowers on Drayan Core, e.g. the cultists were supposed to go up in flames- that is probably what happened-since most of the human units died in one hit!

Vae Victus - yep, in Drayan Core there are a good number of flamethrower cultists mixed in. I will look into the Behemoth Rifle, maybe we broke it. Let us know if it happens again, and at the time it would be great to note the Templar's gear load out!
