Phoenix pyre, suicide thugs and 100% fire resist

[Meglobob]

So what type of damage does phoenix pyre do? Is there any way of protecting yourself from it? It seems phonenix pyre gives limited (depending on fatigue) immortality but at the cost of taking lots of afflictions.

As an aside, does 100% fire resistance protect you immolation?

[Shovah32]

100% fire resistance should protect you from immolation(I know that 100% shock resistance protects you from shockwave).
I don't think there are any real ways to protect from phoenix pyre, although if it's ap then high protection may help.
