The Witcher
Incineration
Incineration is a critical effect with the following characteristics:
- Continuous loss of vitality.
- Active dodging of opponent attacks blocked.
- Ability to parry enemy attacks blocked.
- Special manoeuvres disabled.
- Sign use blocked.
- Susceptibility to Blinding critical effect increased.
Because opponents cannot dodge attacks while incinerated, this makes even a very agile opponent vulnerable to strong attack styles. The strong silver style is particularly effective against incinerated monsters, if one also puts skill points into Patinado (I, II, III).
Weapons
The following weapons all increase incineration as a critical effect:
- Aerondight
- Rune sword with one sun, one moon, and one earth rune.
- Rune sword with one sun, two moon runes.
- Rune sword with two sun, one moon rune.
- Rune sword with three sun runes.
- Torch
