So me and a friend were down in Orr, frolicking among the pretty fields of flowers and poppies … nah, just kidding. We were shooting and stabbing a crap ton of zombies. After a little map completion we jumped in the ocean to reach an island and after a couple underwater fights my friend started laughing and asked. “Do you still have your flamethrower equipped on your engineer?”

And I said “No, I’m underwater. It can’t be equipped.”

Then she said “Well, that’s funny, because I can still see you using it!”

I didn’t see anything unusual … I had my grenades equipped. Turns out this glitch was on her screen only. But lo and behold, she took a few screencaps, and …

Somehow, by jumping into the water while using the flamethrower, I was granted a permanent stream of fire erupting from my poor charr’s chest. This gives a new meaning to the phrase “heart burn”! And what was great was it never went away, no matter what I tried:

I climbed back onto land …

Tried using all sorts of different abilities and weapon kits …

I guzzled all kinds of tonics and transformation potions …

Afterward, I had to go to the local botanist and get checked out. It seems that transforming into a Mordrem Teragriff gave me a strange burning sensation when I pee.

I … AM … PIG-DRAGON! The only pork that can cook its self!

In summary … 10/10, would glitch again (if I knew how!).

The attachment below just about sums up my thoughts.

Radiant Gloves often do this as well. If you get Cced (knockback, knockdown, launched) while channeling, suddenly you have a bright, white lightbeam shooting out of your right hand until you zone.

That’s pretty awesome OP! Now I’m curious as to any applications this may have in terms of messing with my friends…

I’ve seen this kind of glitches happen more and more as the game got older with more updates.

I’ve seen a similar effect with my sister’s ranger using a GS #3. On my screen she still has that ghost-like image of a swooping bird of prey wherever she goes even under water or when she swaps to using a bow.
