I keep hearing fellow commandos talk about this 11 sec delay between using their special. This is confusing to tme because I only have a delay a just over 5 seconds. My FT stats are:

418-832

3.1 speed

Is it because I got a speed slice that my specials a sooooo much faster (2x+). My average FS1 attack dmg is 4500. But I shoot a lot more often, so missing is not so bad. Anyway, I was jsut wondering.

the 11 sec delay comes with FT box 1 since you have literally no speed with the weapon. Once you get up the tree a bit more it considerably goes down. 11 sec to 6 sec

The delay on the specials is two times the speed of the weapon. (delay = 2 X weapon speed) That is why the delay goes down as you progress in the tree. We gain Flame speed mods. If people were to use krayt tissue that lowers the speed immensly on a flamer you could practically have a 2 second wait on your flame specials. Although its going to be extremely rare and hard to find 4 or 5 krayt tissues that are -1.00 (at the least) to drop the flamer to around 2 seconds after a slice. Just imagine firing every second with normal attacks and every 2 or 3 with a special. Yes i do believe this can be done as well. /drool
