PTS Patch Notes v1.5.1
•Flaming Oil will now only affect targets that are at least 6 meters below you; oil will no longer do any damage if used on the ground.

How high is 6 meters? I just don't want to spend a few days downloading PTS.

    Apart from picture 2 & 5, they all look to be about and over 6 Meters.

    Picture about 3 tall characters standing on top of each other to get 6 Meters.

    Just take the range of something like uppercut, 7m, and slice off 1 meter. Its not that far. Pretty much melee range.

    Honestly. I think they should keep ground oil, and just let it affect the user of the oil too :)

    Then NOBODY will use it from the ground. >:)

    This post makes a great point. They need to add some kind of indicator, if they haven't, so that people can know when they are at the right range. You should get a red indicator and the oil shouldn't fire at all if you aren't high enough up to do damage, just like any other ability or piece of siege.

    anything "below" 6 meters is not effected. correct?
    it's from 6 meters and beyond that gets burned and torched, yes?
