set the flamer so that the dot is made as acomponent you add in with -1 uses so that when you look at a flamer you see thedot power. it would also be nice if the fire would hit action and mind along with health have it be random or hit the area the single did if you set a guys hair on fire his arm is not going to be the thing he has a problem with

impossible afaik,

since the dot depends on the damage you do with the special,

and that damage varies

A bit off topic, but since you mentioned "-1 uses" on DoT.....What does -1 uses mean? Does it mean it will do no DoT or does it mean unlimited uses?

Thanks for any replies. I've struck out trying to get a search to give me the answer.

Been a proponent of this for a long time, IF they did this they could make the specials for the FT and HAR generic for all Special Heavy Weapons, therefore they could add more of a mix of weapons to our profession like most of the other combat professions.

From a historical standpoint machine guns have been primarly used for similar attacks, (area attack, and concentrated fire on one target) so I don't see any reason that the Starwars version of a machine gun shouldn't be grouped under the same set of specials as the flamer.

Make the special attacks generic(ie. Single1, Cone1, Single2, ect.), bonus abilities attached to the weapons, base the range of specials off weapon range (or ideal range), and give us something to do besides make BBQ (Theres a ton of existing items that are already in the Starwars universe, or logical applications of existing technologies within Starwars.
