When an enemy on dry land hits you with a fire attack while you are swimming, sometimes the ‘on fire’ animation gets stuck and you are ‘lit’ until you take fire damage again. This is only the animation, you do not take eternal fire damage.
This is only occasional, but it is repeatable. Shown is my third successful attempt at replicating the bug.
Hell yeah! (but thanks for reporting 
)
I will forward this.

Yeah it is pretty metal, right? I almost want to just be ‘on fire’ all the time. I guess that’s what the Flame Walk rune is for XD
This might be related to this bug. In my testing, after taking fire damage again the visual clears.
Do you remember exactly what conditions you were ignited under? Any details could help in finding and fixing the bug.
I think I got the fire debuff while fighting two archers. Not sure if I was already burning and debuff was reapplied. I was using a bow and the actual kill shot was happening off screen.
Maybe there is a race condition in case an enemy is killed the moment he was going to apply a fire debuff to the hero?
PS: And no, I was not swimming.
Hmm… It’s possible. I think it’s more likely that if you get the fire debuff at the same time that a fire debuff is being removed then it stays forever. For example, maybe you got hit by two fire attacks almost simultaneously and the first flame animation ended right when the second one started.
Edit; if you wanna be on fire at will, there is a flame walk rune for wand/staff that self-immolates and leaves a trail of fire behind you.
Yeah, sounds reasonable, since its only the visual that stays, while the actual debuff is properly removed.
Must check out that fire rune. So much stuff to explore in this game 
Managed to get the bugged fire visual again. It happens VERY rarely. I did not have a fire debuff before this one was applied by one of those red capped fire bomb throwers in Orbal Glades. I was not swimming, but still standing in water (see screenshot).
Dont know the code behind this, but my guess is this is not related to water. The first time I had this bug there was no water around. Looks like a race condition when the debuff runs out (coroutine stopped early?).
It seems the endless fire glitch still exists, since I just got it again, im constantly burning but it does no damage
This usually goes away after rejoining the realm.
I actually managed to get it after all.. Anyways theres a simple fix for it, but its not a fix for future appearances of this glitch.
-just go to a firepit walk onto it and set yourself on fire and let the burn status wear off
OR
-set yourself on fire through walking onto a firepit like previously and jump into water to clear the burn status faster
(maybe i should’ve included the steps to Walk off the Firepit after setting themselves on fire.. in case anyone dies on the firepit KNOW THIS: its your own fault for playing with FIRE!)
Yeah, receiving fire damage from any source will clear the bug. Camp fires, enemies with fire weapons, allies with fire weapons, etc. Leaving and reentering the realm should fix it also.
I doubt the real fix will be implemented until at least the Comfort update.
