Rune of the Fire question

[ThiBash.5634]

Does the fire aura that triggers from [Rune of the Fire](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Superior_Rune_of_the_Fire "Rune of the Fire") reapply itself after a cooldown (like the Rock Dog from Rune of the Ogre), or is it on entering combat only?

 

_(1): +25 Power

(2): +10% Might Duration

(3): +50 Power_

**(4): Gain fire shield for 4 seconds when entering combat.**

_(5): +100 Power

(6): +20% burning duration; when affected by fire aura, deal +10% damage._

Pretty sure it's only on initially entering combat. The Rock Dog is "while in combat", not "when entering combat".

[Astralporing.1957]

all "when entering combat" effects seem to do exactly what they say - activate only on entering combat, without reapplying during it.

Which makes those effects pretty much useless in anything beyond open world solo play.

Correction: for PvE i mean. They may be useful in SPvP.

Pity. Guess I'll stick to Leadership and Scholar then. Thanks for the clarification.
