Is there any way to reduce the special attack recovery delay? (ie., flame throwers, heavy acid rifles, etc.) Is thisdelay hard-set or can it be reduced by increasing weapon attack speedand/or affecting other factors? Flame cone/single has a 12-15 second delay that really makes me vulnerable to attack. I'm looking to minimize vulnerabilities as much as possible. That delay is quite possibly the number one cause of death for me. If you don't hit with the flame cone/flame single the first time, chances are, you may not live to see a second shot. This is especially true if you haven't gotten to at least flame thrower 3 yet.

leveling and a good slice... that's all i've found.. it gets better with higher levels.

Heavy Acid Rifle is broken. It matters not your skill or speed. Cooldown is 20 seconds...period.

Flamethrower - get a speed slice. Get Flame3 at least and it's all good. Pretty much blows till then.

Oh, and /aim is your friend. Use it.

The delay is legitimate for the amount of damage we can dish out, but you're right about the miss/death factor. Just one downside I am willing to accept to be a powerful Commando.
