Having recently dropped terrain negotiation to have enough SP for TKM I've been tired of running after Mobs to do any damage.
"Ah-ha" says I, puts suppression fire in the tool-bar for a posture down attack, wanders out to the nearest ST and lo and behold it works.
I happy about that, but laughing at the animation used for suppression fire. Great burning balls of flame above the STs head, if that doesn't make you duck - nothing will.

I had no idea you could use suppress fire with a flame thrower. I will have to try that.

I dunno, I haven't tried threaten shot or any of that - lol I will have to try this.
I always thought the FT was it's own style weapon and the supression wouldn't work. Guess I need to make room on the toolbar.

They made all the Marksman specials work with the FT a good 6 months back.

I thought point blank single/point blank area were pistol only attacks? But in any case, yeah they made the general ranged attacks work with flamethrowers many months ago. Its just too bad that most marksman general ranged attacks aren't really worth the slot on your hotkey panel. If the overcharge attacks didn't degrade your weapon at an alarming rate, overcharge 2 would be a nice long range attack for the flamethrower. Wish master marksman was as nice as master brawler.
