The only Ent actually lit on fire, Beechbone (according to Pippin), 'burned like a torch: a horrible sight.'

So the mechanic in the mod is an accurate representation of the individual. Perhaps nearby Ents rather than the flaming Ent should become enraged? torches burn a long time, so do people, anyway torches burn a long time, so would he not survive for a nice long time where he can charge the enemy with the mindset of "i'm screwed anyway so i'll just decimate as many of these power-hungry vile evil destructive demonic beasts as i can before i die" after all, it appears that the pain of fire merely made them more enraged rather than incapacitated them. That may be your mentality, but not the Ents'. They are an endangered race. They cannot find the Entwives, and there are no more Entings. None of them would commit suicide. The other Ents, not the flaming one, were enraged. They had only received minimal burns. As far as I can tell, Beechbone appears to have died then and there. After all, it was 'liquid fire'.

Burning for a long time doesn't mean he was alive the whole time. if they are burning to the extent of being a torch charging headlong into the enemies would not be suicide
