Additionally, we&#8217;re pleased to announce&#13;<br \/>\nthat other fiery elements are joining it, including the possibility of running&#13;<br \/>\ninto the Hellborn on every map as well as special Supply Points that only&#13;<br \/>\nappear when the Inferno is searing through the bayou and gulch! <\/p>\n<p>Some of the supplies&#13;<br \/>\nyou&#8217;ll be able to find in the new Firefighter Supply include Water Bottles, Ammo,&#13;<br \/>\nTool Boxes, and Tarot Cards. If you&#8217;re willing to spend some Pledge Marks,&#13;<br \/>\nyou&#8217;ll be able to fight fire with fire, as the Flame Rifle will be attainable&#13;<br \/>\nfrom the Firefighter Supply too! <\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve never veered&#13;<br \/>\ninto the flames before, you&#8217;ll need to make sure you know how to prepare for a&#13;<br \/>\nfire. Here are some top tips from the firefighters themselves!<\/p>\n<p>When preparing to face the Inferno, bring the \u201cSalveskin&#8221;&#13;<br \/>\nTrait with you\u2014it reduces all fire damage and makes sure you don&#8217;t lose Health&#13;<br \/>\nChunks too fast while tiptoeing around the Inferno&#8217;s path. If you accidentally catch yourself on fire&#13;<br \/>\n(this happens to even the most skilled firefighters sometimes!), you can place&#13;<br \/>\na Choke Bomb and walk through the Choke Cloud while you&#8217;re burning. This will make&#13;<br \/>\nthe burn effect stop and save you some precious health.  The closer you are to the fire, the louder it&#13;<br \/>\nroars. This means that using the paths within the Inferno will open up some&#13;<br \/>\noptions for sneaky rotations while fighting, due to crouching steps barely being&#13;<br \/>\naudible. It&#8217;s hard to spot Hunters behind the fire and&#13;<br \/>\nsmoke, so using Dark Sight is one of the biggest advantages you can get while&#13;<br \/>\nfighting in the fire as audio is also limited, making it harder to track other&#13;<br \/>\nplayers. If a teammate dies and gets knocked back into&#13;<br \/>\nthe Inferno, it&#8217;ll be nearly impossible to get them back up, since you can&#8217;t&#13;<br \/>\nput out the fire (even with a Choke Cloud). Their Health Chunks will slowly&#13;<br \/>\nburn away, so you&#8217;ll need to avoid dying at the edges of the flames if you plan&#13;<br \/>\nto get out of the Mission alive.<\/p>\n<p>Stock up on water,&#13;<br \/>\nfight fire with fire, and keep an eye out for the Hellborn in this exciting new&#13;<br \/>\nupdate!<\/p>\n<p>And if you&#8217;re looking to catch up on the Battle Pass, this weekend is your chance.
