Blaze (XC1)

Blaze is a debuff in Xenoblade Chronicles and Future Connected. It is one of the damage-over-time debuffs, dealing equal to a percentage of the triggering hit multiple times over its duration. Blaze arts are usually attacks rather than physical attacks. Multiple instances of afterburn may be active at once; they do not interrupt or override each other, as long as they are caused by different arts.

For party members' arts, blaze always has a of 40% of the triggering damage, and lasts for 20 seconds dealing damage every 2 seconds. This makes it the second-weakest of the damage-over-time debuffs.

For enemies' arts, blaze has a wide range of strengths, from 10% all the way up to 100%. The duration is often 10 or 20 seconds, while the tickrate can be 2.0 or 2.5 seconds.
