Flares are an item property that is triggered to create an effect when attacking (weapons and UCS gear), performing maneuvers (armor, shields, and accessories), casting (runestaves), blocking (shields), or are hit by an incoming attack (armor). Most flares deal damage to the foe being attacked or attacking a character, though there are some with other effects such as stripping spells (dispel flares) or increasing combat attributes (AS, DS, CS, etc).
