Flaresting is one of two paths an Awakened dirk can take toward Fire. A silent fire blade: steady damage and speed, no tricks.
Infusion starts it at +6% Fire Damage, and by Spirit Level 5 it reads +26% Fire Damage, +13% Attack Speed and +10% Burn Effect.
This one is pure stats: nothing ever procs from it.
Fire builds around Burn and the Ignite payoff.
