flamethrower fans stay winning
HELLDIVER DIED DUE TO: BURNING

[Deadspace]

The pyromaniacs are going to be very happy about this.

[speedyazi]

Buff to Flamethrower users. Nerf to Helldivers with Flamethrower user on team.

Remember: Don't walk forward while firing this without a personal shield.

[rayguym]

Shield pack/ flamethrower mains gonna have a field day. Hoping for some fire resistant armor soon.

[keldon_champion]

Honestly given the flamethrowers short range and small magazines along with the fact that lighting a living creature on fire tends to be an incredibly effective way to make it stop being alive it kind of should do a ton of damage.

[CBeavr]

we finally getting close to the damage numbers the flamethrower hulk puts out

[riven]

Now if only they can fix the DoT damage bug

[emolasher]

If it can burn a charger down in a couple seconds imagine the accidental teamkills...

[IceDragon]

As I look lovingly towards my flame thrower I whisper "soon my pet, soon I will feed you the world"

[Necro_fury]

Do keep in mind that it matters where u point ur flamethrower on a charger. If you aim at a leg itll kill the leg quickly while the torso has a ton more health

[eotwkdp]

I still miss the rail gun before its nerf

- he says while abusing bugs with a flamethrower

[tsunderemerc]

It's nice that something you really gotta grind towards gives you a substantial reward like that

[dogishappy]

Now they just need an armor that is resistant to burning.

[spynix]

I knew it. I just got all the ship modules and I thought to myself: "Watch as they add more tomorrow." I wasn't wrong.

[TheSoutherncross]

its not Op... its what it was always meant to be.

[manoftheworld]

TY sir. Was looking for some comparison footage.

[Ifyoucanreadthisgooglebroke]

Anyone notice that many of these changes are just buffs to the reinforce strategem but with extra steps?

[RaptorJesus.]

50% flamethrower damage increase a few patches back,
50% fire damage increase the patch before last,
And now 25% fire stratagem damage increase.
Pyro stuff gonna be crazy OP, meanwhile I'm still begging for a reticle and 150 rounds for HMG!

[ninny]

We're gonna get a lot of team kills with this one
