the flame dot gets bigger as time goes by to
Yea, I think its because the mob's BF gets bigger. By the way, the DOTs alone take forever to kill the mob.
Well, it depends, on some things like SBD's, ancient krayts, Gorax ect, they die faster from the dots than I can kill them as a MAster rifleman with a nice T21.
I meant NS elders... their 100% heat resistance scares me.
ancient krayts have 95% heat resist and heavy armor.... I get a whopping 56 heavy weapon Xp when I kill one.
Stacking flames took me 45 minutes to kill the giant
stack with 3 flamethrowers........

How does it "stack"?

flame single 1, flame cone 1, flame single 2 & flame cone 2 = 4 dots
Thats for every flamer you use, if you carry 2 flamers then you can stack 8 dots
3 flamers = 12 dots
4 flamers = 16 dots
and so on and so on..

ahh man i lost my own post 
i reported some info on commando dot stacking about 6 months back... alot of commandos added info to that post too... we learned alot from each other. But basicly... after our DOT's got the big nerf... many commandos were down hearted.. but we carried on and found this tactic... individual DoTs from the same flamerthrowers stack, we all knew this... but with the "new" weapon change delay, not many had tried using more than one good flamer. But one day i chanced on the fact that different flamer's DoT's stacked.

But one day i chanced on the fact that different flamer's DoT's stacked.Simple test was to try and stack one dot from 3 flamers.. and indeed it works.
Ofcourse now, many commandos know of this tactic.. and quiet simply put... a group of 40 commandos will bring down a 2mil HAM mob faster than 40 jedi knights, (and i kid you not), example: ancient krayt... 3 man tank team... 5 commandos... total burns over a 4 second period (at the peak of the burn) 43k.. that is 43k dmg to the health bar of the krayt about every 4 secs. Krayt down in less than 4mins (burns take time to stack to peak... and this group had only 2 experianced commandos)
If all commandos in the group know what they are doing.. have the right equipment (fast flamers and relevent foods/drinks) a group equiped with 3 or more commandos can be lethal in PVE... and do not count us out in PVP either.. altho i won't go into that now.
