Commando Archive

Every time I use my flame thrower to killsomething big (ie: at-st or albatross), i don't get credit for it and I don't get to loot the corpse. Why don't our DoT's count for us instead of against us? I just did 10k damage (out of 85k) to an abatross, but when it finnaly dropped dead with my last shot (doing 3k damage to it) it said i couldn't loot the corpse! just like every other time I kill something big.

1k a shot for rocket launcher that does 4k damage...

launcher pistol that isn't any better than any other good pistol

acid rifle that almost does as much damage as a rocket but no dot

flame thrower that does as much damage as a rocket launcher with a dot that works against you and steals your kills

What are commandos for again?

Check what the resists are. If it is 100% heat and you are using the flame thrower, you will not get loot rights nor xp, since it wasn't your weapon but the dot that kills it. Thats why I always carry around 1 of each type of damage weapon, whether it be a pistol, rifle or carbine, plus the heavy weapon types, so I can always do some damage the critter is vulnerable to. Yes, its alot of inventory space, but other than armor and weapons, what space do I need?

I saw myself doing the actual damage... it wasnt soaked or anything.. and the last bit of health dissapeared right when i shot, not after the dot started effecting it... (it wasn't on fire anymore at the time)
