I know speed is more important than damage when it comes to flamethrowers, but what about when your fighting high level mobs with high heat resistance. Speed would probably get you better DPS, but when your initial hits are getting a 80-100% reduction I think the DPS lowers dramatically. Soooo, I was wondering if using flamethrowers with higher damage would be more sufficient. You won't be hitting the mob as fast, but your DOTs will be ticking for more damage.
What do you guys think?

when something has high heat resists, it's all about the DoTs, this is where people will say you want damage, cause DoT is based on the damage your gun deals.
I still prefer speed, almost always. It's a preference

i prefer speed personally... even against high resists mobs... the first time i was a commando i had no money and used standard speed flamers... but this second time around i have a lot more success and fun with 2-3 speed flamers... you can lay your burns quicker... but like said before its a personal preference
