Definately flamethrower and not acid rifle. Might as well put your acid rifle into your house on the wall. As for damage vs speed, I never really tried out many different flamethrowers. But the specials on flamethrowers take a long time to refire, that I can say. I was easily doing already 10k damage per special on unarmored mobs/lairs with a mediocre flamethrower as it was. Not counting the dot.

Flame rules Acid ATM. Flame is faster and hits for higher damage. Unfortunately, it's not even close right now.
Keep an eye out for future fixes though. I'm pretty confident that our Acid Rifles will get some good loving in the next couple of months. It's realistic to think that the Acid could one day be on-par, if not surpass our FT.

Yes i'm a new commando and looking at the skill point requirments for the flame tree and the acid tree one would think the acid rifle would be stronger! But that's not the case obviously. /shrug

well, take everything I said with a grain of salt. It's still not official on whether our acid rifles will get some loving but all indicators point to a really good revamp for our profession including the HAR. I don't know if you are a master commando yet or not, but if you're not, then I would suggest that you grind out the flame tree first (and get yourself a decent flamethrower for it) and then everything else afterwards. the FT is the only tree that works for us atm...but an awesome tree against heat intolerant mobs!
