how much fire damage to set a hunter on fire?

[bacon]

i stupidly picked the "set 6 hunters on fire" and cant seem to set anyone on fire with incendiary ammo. how much damage is needed to set someone on fire? not even dragon's breath shotguns seem to work consistently.

[Kilo Wyatt]

Depends on the ammo type but I know light ammo takes two to three shots

[RandomTurtle]

Grab Lanterns around the place or take hellfire bombs.

I suggest skipping that challenge in favor of others.

If you do want to do that one, use dragons breath on spectre or a bornheim with incendiary.

I found romero or any shotty with fire works, fast shooting weapons as well like bornheim or hell, if u can two tap with the vet silenced or winnie.

I don't suggest the winnie or vetterli for the challenge because most likely you will just kill them on the second hit and not set them on fire. Unless you hit them in the limbs or from very far away. It can work but it is not reliable enough and will slow your progress down.

Dragon's breath will get you there fastest, but it will kill you a lot also.

Tbh double alert traps in doors or alert traps on barrels- along with bringing Bornheim or dragons breath are probably the fastest way.

Two shots with incendiary ammo. Use a bornheim, because two shots on most guns would just kill, not ignite.

Dragon's breath seems inconsistent becauseof the velocity. One well placed, close ranged shoot will ignite. But the muzzle velocity is so slow you have to lead even point blank.

My advice is terminus db or specter db with hellfire bombs.

Actually yeah the specter db with hellfire is a great idea.

Bornheim icendiary go brrrr

[Vidokas]

10 fire dmg is enough. all guns except shotguns do <10 fire dmg per bullet

[dvair]

I did it using fire bombs, tried veterlli but you need to hit them twice quickly to set them on fire. A double alert trap will set them on fire .

[Pegarex]

I wanna say you need to do burn 15 health into charred health to light them on fire with incendiary ammo, and each shot applies 10, but the charred health is also effected by damage falloff. The issue becomes that pretty much everything other than the bornheim 2 shots to the torso, so you'll need to shoot them once, let them heal, and shoot them again before they recover half of the charred health... incendiary ammo really sucks, so I would dragons breath shotguns can ignite in one shot or using fire bombs.

Why don't you just cancel it if you want to? All you have to do is click the quest slot you want to free up, and click cancel quest.

However honestly I feel this quest isn't to bad as the throwables automatically set hunters on fire and explode on surface contact, and have quite a large area of effect.

You can use the flare pistol too. But fire bombs seem to work the best.

I went to quickplay and just spammed lanterns on my guy at the spawn fight, only needed 2 matches to complete it
