Custom flare messaging premiered at Ebon Gate 2018 with pre-made options. In terms of item properties, custom flare messaging is its own item property and is compatible with other scripts on the item, as long as that script does not take up the "custom flare messaging" slot. Custom flare messaging is added to a weapon/runestaff by flavor, so if a weapon is plain and Elemental Blade (411) is cast upon it, the flare will adopt the applicable flare messaging for that elemental flare, and will switch as applicable within the flavor if the flare type is changed.

The initial release allowed for [pre-made] customization of 10 types of flares: fire, cold, electricity, acid, vacuum, plasma, steam, unbalance, grapple, and impact (earth). The release was in the form of automated certificates that should be READ and ANALYZEd carefully.

Once a custom flare message flavor is applied, it cannot be overwritten.

On greater elemental flares the messaging will replace only the regular flare occurrence.
