[QUOTE="Infiniti2000, post: 2388302, member: 31734"] I'm sure Hyp will say that tripping with a flaming guisarme does no damage. If tripping does not cause damage, then the flaming can't. While we're at it, you can sheathe your flaming sword without risking harm to yourself and even others can grasp the flaming blade without harming themselves. Remember that the flames only do damage if the weapon does damage. Sheathing a weapon does not deal damage so adding 1d6 to that is N/A. Right? To be consistent with the flaming whip dealing no damage, you (meaning whoever views that a flaming whip deals no damage) would have to rule that you deal 1d6 bludgeoning + 1 fire whether or not the torch is lit. After all, it (the [url="http://www.d20srd.org/srd/equipment/goodsAndServices.htm#torch"]SRD[/url]), doesn't actually specify that you have to light the torch first. [/QUOTE]
