Fire attacks

[Lyzander]

Man i wish that at least 1 time........just one time that if someone uses a fire element on someone that person gets set on fire or at least a burn mark!

Well, when they are trying to save the hokage, an ANBU member runs into the barrier and lights on fire...

[Lyzander]

oh yeah


but like besides that


for example the hokage uses a major fire blast attack on the hokages.....and they are like in the fire without a scratch...

goes for other attacks seen as well

[Coolman018]

Well... When Sasuke uses the shuriken with the strings attached to trap Oro on the tree, he also gets half his face, or mask, burnt off.

[Lyzander]

but he had to like flame him for like 30 seconds

The fire attacks are usually effective when they hit, I don't see what the problem is.

Fire attacks are'nt that special or effective unless their concentrate(like in a straight line and really hot) sasuke's fire attack is all over the place, personally i prefer water alot more vicious.

hmm i think id rather drown to death then burn to death, getting burned is much more painful, plus when your drowning dont you just black out eventually anyway? anyway back on topic the fire jutsus arent as damaging as real fire would be, but maybe thats just because the first they produce is chakra based, and its only as strong as its user.

simple... have you ever jumped thru a fire, or ran your hand thru a match? Same concept... the jutsu serves the same purpose as kunai, move opponents where you want them.

How many people have actually been hurt by a kunai? Gaara, all the people zabuza fugged up, the one sand nin attacking konoha, and naruto when he stabbed himself in the hand.

Of course enemies could be hurt by the fire, as they could be hurt by kunai... they just choose not to

most likey you can shield yourself from fire attacks with chakra brought to the skins surface, or something.
