If you try and flame an enemy and there happens to be a pillar, a barrel or any piece of terrain in the path of the stream, it just shoots out a dud. Does not hit the target or leave any flames on the ground. Flames should pass over and around terrain…that’s kind of their main appeal over projectiles.
