Darktide - Flamethrower with 'Crit Build' and 'Everlasting Flame' is a bit much...

Thank you

1 rich man with a flamethrower .

Possibly the most *SUCCINCT* demonstration of a Flamer with crit-based build anywhere on the internet from a guy with 13 subscribers.

I thank you for your comment. Funny thing is: I only recorded it because I wanted to demonstrate the absurdity of this build to my mate, since there are no videos around the internet of this. Truly astonishing.

@@Franzl0rd How does it perform against heavier targets like those in Flak or Carapace armor? I’ve seen conflicting reports on that. Some saying it’s worthless and others saying that it works so long as you cook em’ for a bit longer.

Could you share your full build please? I'm new to darktide and really want to get a zealot focused around flame damage working.

I don't know, this weapon still seems worthless to me. Will it stop pack of armored ragers or maulers rushing at you? Even normal flak enemies if they pass and some manage to hit you once before they burn then you are in grave danger. More often than not enemies rush scattered form every side and this weapon is designed to stream dmg continuosly to stack burn and stagger but also locking you in place. It's too immobile. And you lack ability to deal with distant threats. The playstyle pace is too slow. For canonfodder it's a waste of resource because your melee can do the same but keeping you mobile and safe with blocking. Did you find success with it at damnation/auro?

just keep running boltgun and dueling sword 4 on every class then 😴😴😴

[@eryk5342]

@xQc_Enjoyer777 I'm kinda vibing with new power sword and infantry autogun at havoc 25 right now. I bought Darktide with recent humblebundle, I'm aware of the meta build but am reluctant to play these weapons yet.

At higher Havocs this flamer build can clear out stacks of unlimited amounts of ragers, bulwarks, crushers, maulers. The only limiting factors are space to dodge back (or breathing room provided by your team) and the amount of burning you can actually do. It is THE solution to director doomstacks but it absolutely gobbles up ammo. See it as kind of an ultimate weapon with limited uses, given the ammo scarcity in havoc.
