Summary[]
'BURN BABY BURN!', that's probably what Emperor Nero said to Rome. Well, during WWII, I think the Americans said that too as they tore forests down with the Flamethrower. You can see where they're going with a no aim weapon. Shoot at the jungle, you end up hitting a zombie behind you.
Background Information[]
A flamethrower is a mechanical incendiary device designed to project a long, controllable stream of fire. They were first used during World War I, and widely used in World War II.
Tips[]
- The Flamethrower is unrefillable; conserve ammo.
- It is possible to kill a Elemental using two Flamethrowers. Although the fire effect will heal the elemental, the initial heat damage of 15 HP will kill it if you use two flamethrowers simultaneously.
- Try not to fight a Tank with this weapon.
- The Flamethrower is VERY efficient to clear up large groups composed of zombies.
- The Flamethrower is able to "shoot" through walls making it good against corner camping smokers and hunters.
- The Flamethrower needs to apply its fire effect at least twice to kill a regular zombie at full HP if using bursts instead of continuous spraying.
- The Flamethrower's initial heat damage is not considered to be fire/burn damage, so fire vest zombies are still going to die albeit a little slower.
Trivia[]
- It is not possible to set fire to yourself using this weapon.
- The Flamethrower only fires in the direction you are facing so you cannot aim where your mouse is pointing.
- The Flamethrower does not leave a trail of fire like a Molotov.
- In R2D 2014, the Flamethrower was capable of firing through walls.
