The 4.2.1 patch fixes the VFX for Flamers, Changebringers, Exalted Flamers, and The Burning Chariot, but unfortunately this has not been fixed yet.

The flame effects are now on the back and were originally intended to look like flames coming out of the mouth.

4.2.1

Before 4.2

In addition, other VFX and animation issues have not been resolved.

The fixes in 4.2.1 include persistent VFX, so I don't know if this will be fixed in the future, but I'm reporting it again just in case.

Flamers and similar units have incorrect VFX orientation during melee combat animations.

The Burning Chariot's body orientation is incorrect during melee combat animations.

Changebringers continue to leave corpses.
