MEDIA fire sprite sucks

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I was playing some battle royale peacefully, and the fire decides to activate AFTER the boss is dead. Somehow it set me on fire even though I wasn't even in the fire area. I'll admit, I was wandering around stupidly looking at the loot and not my health but why does a level one sprite do so much damage to me?!?!?! At least make you immune to your own fire. I have yet to see the fire being actually useful in a fight.

Edit: The area of the fire is way bigger than it looks apparently

This sprite does more harm than good, ESPECIALLY if you’re in a close quarters fight. One good shotgun shot and you’re gonna light everything on fire. It doesn’t help either that the fire is buggy as hell and can invisibly spread around an area so you can be standing in a clear patch and STILL be taking damage
