* This weapon action does not count as an attack for the purposes of {{SAI|Extra Attack}} and requires your full {{r|action}} to use.
* Instead, this is actually classified as a cantrip which results in some unexpected interactions.
** It can be {{SAI|Counterspell|Counterspelled}}.
** A [[sorcerer]] can apply [[Metamagic]] to it. The applicable options are {{SAI|Metamagic: Careful Spell|Careful Spell}}, {{SAI|Metamagic: Extended Spell|Extended Spell}}, {{SAI|Metamagic: Heightened Spell|Heightened Spell}}, {{SAI|Metamagic: Subtle Spell|Subtle Spell}}, and perhaps most importantly, {{SAI|Metamagic: Quickened Spell|Quickened Spell}}.
** It benefits from spell and cantrip specific damage bonuses like {{SAI|Elemental Affinity: Damage}} and {{RarityItem|Amulet of Elemental Torment}}.
** It activates [[Eldritch Knight|Eldritch Knight's]] {{SAI|War Magic}}.
** It can still be casted while {{Cond|Silenced}}.
*The '''Roiling Hellfire''' condition is applied by both the weapon action itself and the {{Area|Hellfire}} surface it creates. Even if a target saves against the attack, it will still be inflicted with Roiling Hellfire cause by the surface.
*Despite the tooltip saying that Hellfire ignores resistances and immunities, it does not. Proof - [[:File:Rolling Hellfire Resistances.png]]
