My understanding is that you can only have one weapon Ignited at a time. I was using it on my recent hunting trip, experimenting with elemental damage. I would release Ignite and then recast it whenever I switched weapons. This worked a dozen times without problem, until I saw this behavior:
>release ignite
[You're nimbly balanced and overwhelming your opponent.]
>
The warm feeling in your hand goes away.
>
>prepare Ignite
Since you're not feeding enough power into the spell pattern to make it coherent, you quickly work your way to the minimum required.
You trace a careful sigil in the air, shaping the pattern of the Ignite spell.
>
>cast blade
You don't think you can manage to ignite another weapon at the moment.
>
>release ignite
Release what?
Can anyone help me understand what happened here?
