Legacy:Flamethrower
Flamethrower
Statistics
The Flamethrower attacking Target Dummies. Note the flames' straight line-like shape, and the damage decreasing with each enemy pierced.
On the
Old-gen console version and Nintendo version, the flamethrower's bursts are straight lines of fire particles, which travel out from the weapon to a short distance ahead of the player before stopping, lingering briefly. The fire inflicts the On Fire! debuff for 20 seconds, and can pierce through three enemies before dissipating upon hitting a fourth.
Tips
- When paired up with Frost armor, this weapon can inflict On Fire! and Frostburn at the same time. This is signified by orange and blue flames coming from the Flamethrower.
- A Flamethrower with the Slow modifier may actually be better, as it does not consume as much Gel but has around the same DPS.
- Its piercing effect can be effective against the The Destroyer. However, the boss is immune to the On Fire! debuff.
