Divine Armaments ???

IIRC it's an additional attack, separate of the weapon one.

In case of flagellants, with flail (2 attacks), for every attack striking there's the additional fire attack.

The question I pose it's:
If I've a longer weapon and I do repel damage, the enemy takes a full Fire 8 AP damage since it's a special attack?
It's the same for other flaming type weapons even if not blessed (like the Demon Whip?)

Repell will never deal more than 1 p damage.

Fire blessing is one extra 8 AP hit if the primary attack hits. A hero with 4 attacks (2 sword of swiftness perhaps) will get up to four additional 8 AP hits.

What about, say, sacred carrion beasts? If they have 2 sleep vine attacks, each of which gets 3 swings, plus a regular attack, is there the potential for 7 additional 8 AP hits? I may have to start doing Carrion Woods with a fire 9 blessing - if nothing else, a carrion lord prophet would be devastating.

(And the Carrion Dragon knows, CW could use a little help.)

Great, thank you Kristofer. I've been a bit concern about possibility of horses with "flaming hooves", etc., it's good that you have separated it from the primary attacks (with weapons). BTW does missile weapons such as bows, jevelins, are considered to be primary one for the purpose of fire 9 blessing?

Yeah, but they would still be all directed to the same quadrant, unless you have quickness.
