Infernal Behemoth not immune to fire damage?

Post by Alkasyn »

As the title says.

I was surprised to find out I was dealt fire damage:

Suddenly attacked you with a Flamethrower and hit for 14 points of fire damage. This was enough to kill you! (2023-11-30 02:03:56).

Do I lose the fire immunity when I buy Unholy Aura? I've never noticed before and the Wiki isn't helpful.

The attacker was an Eternal Soldier with Master Marksman, which allows their Firearms attacks to ignore Immunities and Resistance (but not Soak). Flamethrowers are considered a Firearms attack. Not a bug, just a fairly obscure mechanic since most Eternal Soldiers prefer fists over guns.

Redeemed Eye of Storms also ignores Immunities and Resistance when using archery or thrown weapons.
