== Notes ==
* This skill creates a [[Spirit of Conflagration]].
* Mechanically, this skill is vastly different than how Winter works:
** [[Winter]] will not allow you to trigger the requirement of [[Conjure Frost]], as it changes the elemental damage '''''received''''' to cold, rather than change the damage '''''output''''' of an elemental weapon to cold.
** Conflagration changes the damage type '''''output''''' to fire, like [[Kindle Arrows]], which will allow you to trigger [[Conjure Flame]] with it on its own.
* Because of this, this skill can be used to replace [[fiery]] [[bowstring]], and synergizes with [[Conjure Flame]] and/or [[Mark of Rodgort]] fire damage requirements.
** This allows you to use to use Zealous or Vampiric bowstrings along with a fire damage bow, which is an important benefit for buiilds focusing in multiple attack skills and [[Conjure Flame]].
** However, beware that the skill's damage type change will also stop physical damage triggers such as [[Winnowing]], [[Mark of Pain]] or [[Barbs]] from working when the effect is active.

{{anomaly|This spirit also causes [[Bone Fiend]] attacks and [[spear]] attacks to strike with fire damage.}}
{{anomaly|Unlike [[Winter]], this skill requires the ''attacker'' to be inside the spirit [[area of effect]].}}

== Trivia ==
* This skill was conceived in the beta for Prophecies, named "Summer", but it was not released until the Factions campaign. See [http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/guildwars/preview_6111324.html GameSpot preview of the Ranger].
