There is a problem with the Burst of Flames skill: according to the wiki: A bigger bonus comes from higher value ("more blue") tasks. ''To get the highest bonus possible, cast Burst of Flames on the daily or habit that you have done most consistently. Because Burst of Flames adds to the task's value, if you keep casting it on the same task, that task it will become even bluer and give you even more of a bonus.''

So that means that the skill becomes exponentially more poweful the more you cast it! And it only costs 10 MP!

And Backstab basically gives you lots of free money and XP: A blue task will give you 10 XP and 10 GP or more (up to thousands for very blue tasks).

Both of these skills seem to defeat the point of the game, which is to get money and XP and damage bosses by completing tasks!

My suggestion for a fix - disallow the use of both Burst of Flames and Backstab on Blue tasks. They would still be usable on Green, Yellow, Orange and Red tasks. Also, allow Backstab to increase damage done to bosses in a similar way to Burst of Flames or Brutal Smash.
