Does anyone know if the flame DOTs are still stackable after the CU? Can you still switch between different flamers to stack your flame DOTs?
I sure hope so. This would be an even better tactic now that the weapon switching timer has been removed.

Asked this a while ago, still isn't answered. Pre CU, you could flame DOT a target with 1 flamer, switch to another flamer, add a second flame dot, switch to another... etc etc until the target is taking tremendous amounts of DOT damage.
Is that still dooable post CU? I know our DOTs are seriously underpowered now, by bug or by design, but are they still stackable with using different FT's?

Probably not, because the DoT now appears as a state effect under the target's HAM bar...thats sort of like trying to double stun or double cripple shot your opponent.

It always apeared as a state effect....
I miss the burn though.
For all its faults pre CU, that was the ONE thing us Commando's had, we could take down large game like it was nobodies bussiness.

I mean in the post-CU world 
, whenever somethings applied you can be pretty sure it can't be stacked... :/
