judging by the power details on the selection screen @ character creation....yes. Didn't see a fear component in it.
RaikenX is currently seeking new quotes to add to his signature.
Someone say something funny.

I think it lost the fear.
Especially since Bots/ Assault Bot got the fear removed and the damage altered from their version.
All versions of Burn were changed
The plastic tips at the end of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister.

and there went the last bit of mitigation in /fire manipulation. I'm not really sure it this is a good thing.

Sadly [IGNITE] still fears......how bout a redux in recharge =) Yay!!!! like they would ever give me back my 3sec recharging Ignite........
Awesome, I was about to ask the same question.

Ignite would probably fare better with reduced cast time than recharge time.

I can see that. It's cast time is terrible......although compared to [Full Auto] it has far less epic camera spin potential.

Very true. About the time it take for me to Use my Immob and Ignite the Boss or EB is already dead or pretty darn close to it.

It got the same changes, although there is currently a bug with this version in that it damages the caster with the initial hit. A fix for that is in the pipeline.

Yes, but you won't have a Fear component so you won't run around screaming and waving your arms like members of the Paragon Police Department as you Burn.|

If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

There should be a badge for killing yourself with your own power (not SD).

My lvl 41 Rad/Fire Blaster used burn and it dealt 107.55 dmg to him.
Yep, and what can be quite good (or annoying) for a giggle is that it completely acts as if you are a regular enemy, so buffs and debuffs affect it all well and good. Go stand under a few Longbow nullifier -Res debuffs or somesuch and then use it after whacking Build Up. I have attended many tea parties with the Grim Reaper following silliness like this.
I have a thread on how it seems to be working here: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=236107
To make matters worse the initial damage is also considered Autohit on your character - there is no escape!
Glad to see it's getting fixed soon.

I had thought this was fixed on live. In the first or second patch we had. Didn't see a patch note, but didn't seem to be hit with the damage.

Man my blaster is so powerful that the enemies can't take the dmg he deals so he has to take it himself when he uses burn!
