Description
Firebreathers are creatures that's made of pure fire and a solid hat (if they have any). Their appearance is barely possible to understand due to the transparency and the fire surrounding its body. Firebreathers, called by Firespitters by some, are Special Infected that can Fire Drop and Fire Spit from a long distance. Fire Drop lasts for a good amount of time, but it uses 70% stamina to be triggered, making them unable to do Fire Spit afterwards, multiple times. Fire Spit uses up to 30% of the stamina, and if the spit collides properly with a survivor, the survivor will continue to take burn damage and will drain more than half (for non and standard vest users) of his health. Also it's known that they can also heal by touching draining fire of any kind; from their own Fire Drop or from Molotovs. Firebreathers are considered the Sniper Class of the game.
