— In-game description

Notes

• Damage(4x): 5280 with Ravenous Discipline.
• Creates a fire field which pulses 1 second of  Burning for 5 seconds.
• The center of the blast is approximately 480 units away from where player is facing, with radius of 240.
• Cannot cause a critical hit. ^{[verification requested]}
• Due to the delay of the attack, this is the only engage ability that does not trigger weapon-swap effects, such as Quick Draw, or Superior Sigil of Geomancy. The delay also allows quickly mounting a different mount and performing a second engage skill while the attack lasts, if no enemies where hit by the first strike.
• The January 28, 2025 added a ~1 second delay before this skill (or any of the others dismount skills) can be used after mounting up.

Anomaly:

Despite being a fire-themed skill, it does not cause fire damage.
