I must say, if your a lvl 6 firebug don't even bother to use the flamethrower, get a xbow+mac10. I must say is bloody nice
I think it points more toward just how OP the Crossbow is in 1014, as well as how limited the Flamethrower can be sometimes. That's just part of the perk though, the Flamethrower (in a Firebug's hands) has strengths that make up for those limitations.
My question is: Does anyone know an effective off-perk Flamethrower setup? I honestly can't think of a single reason to use the Flamethrower as a non-Firebug.
My other question is: OP, were you intoxicated in any way when you made this thread? It is veeeery random.

And yes, coming from a Medic/Firebug the crisp effect is very handy for Medics, slows Zeds down, the DOT is just as effective for the Medic as the Firebug, and the Medics armour has little to fear from being set on fire.

Sweet jesus, I would have loved to have been a spectator in that game. I have no idea how you downed the Patriarch with a Flamethrower.
