flamethrower, cause it does DoT damage, plus the effects are cooler

Even though am a Ordance Manufacturer (funny cause I cant make any thing) I would say flamer cause of the nice burn and graphics. HAR with its BB gun sound and twig thing that shoots out is still what I use but only because I started way before patch and thought they where going to add graphics to it.

*note the cone attacks for HAR have no graphics just so you all dont get nervouse when you shoot it.

If the HAR has better range mods I'd go with that since I can barely hit anything with my flamethrower unless I'm like 5m away.

Stat wise the flamethrower is far suppior, however the flamethrower does heat damage(a common resist) while the acid rifle (obviously) does acid damage, which is much rarer.

It would be cool if they changed the graphics for the acid rifle to the "spit graphic" that Humbaba's or other spitting creatures do....just color it yellow or green or something. Simple cut and paste job (I'm hoping!)

Anyway, I agree with the above posts.....flamethrower all the way. Unless you want to be different, of course.

I like the heavy acid rifle better because most of the things i hunt (tuskans, stuff on endor and the rare droideka heh) has good heat resist and no acid resist at all. The flame thrower is better against a no resist target in my opinion though and i use the flamethrower special a whole lot more than i do theheavy acid rifle special.

Buy both and switch depending on your opponent.

See which damage they are more vulnerable to and use either the FT or HAR accordingly.

I am not sure if I imagined this or not but when I use my FT special on a mob it starts a DOT effect. But when I hit something with it normally it doesnt. Is this supposed to be how it works, or am I just delusional from too many hours staring at this screen?

Specials will cause your target to set on fire, normal hits don't

To be honest i always start with my Launcher pistol to get a good bleed going then I switch to my FT or HAR depending on the resists that the creature has.
