what is the difference between these new weapons and a plasma thrower? (besides the range)

Hey thanks for the pictures! Can you post any with the firing effects on both?

Beat me to it...
And really there is no difference. The republic flamer has a blue flame and 3 more meters in range, and of course higher damage. Meanwhile the Lava Cannon has no DoT, but the same type states...and slightly more range. This was my first concern upon entering beta...that the lava cannon was just going to be some glitzy gimped flamer.
It has a very cool animation and overall I like using it over the republic flamer (in all aspects, really just a clone...)...and have asked if something could be added to the lava cannon (ie...armour break!). As far as I know, its "being considered"...and that was before the Helios-commando changes too.

Why not give it a snare as the globs of molten magma not only burn, but solidify into a burning hot sludge that slows everyone in the area.

They may be craftable...who knows? We just haven't found where you loot the weapon or weapon schematics for these babies yet.

Apparently these weapons are always stronger here then in release. That means that these will actually be weakened down a few pegs. Making it weak.

Thats worth using just for the look! lol
Frogs are always stronger than the real deal, hope they keep the damage, drop the speed and sac..
I say this becuase i have a 73sac 980 max dmg 1.9 speed pistol (52 sac when pupped), just makes more sense toshoot 2 times for 1k damage total and very very little action cost, than to hit slightly harder, much slower, and suck up your action. Maybe some commando specific pups, and make them stronger than normal pups? Regaurdless, im switchin pistoleer to go commando again. /looks for napalm canisters

Yeah, its by far going to be our best looking weapon...but, dont ya think it should dissolve armour with that amount of super-heated gooey lava its spewing on that lava flea?
