Flare gun

[ZeniYo]

Is kinda irratating the moment you die you instantly get put on fire, and the flare gun just makes the fire bomb useless now is no point to bring one now. And with this addition they made the game even more annoying cuze you will instantly be put on fire the moment u die, is already happening on higher mmr matches.

And the choke bombs are kinda risky and takes some time to position yourself to throw it, while the flare guns are just instantly.

I think they should reduce the ammo capacity to 1 to make it more balanced in a way.

You can use a crossbow with chokes as well to put them out from far greater distances.

That means I have to sacrifice one of my weapon slots every match that is not a way to balance this.

So we need a Flare choke pistol then?

Flare gun is one thing, but you can light up fallen hunters with star shells--so you can use Lemats for burning too. No need to even use a tools slot for the flare gun. Plus you can even do it with dragon's breath shells. There are quite a few options to burn and do it quickly from a good distance.

Either that, or remove the ammo capacity to just one cuze that will make the choke bombs useless if they get special ammo like this.

Nah, solos need to burn. I'm not turning my back to search for lanterns.
If crytek makes it so looting or burning a hunter disables necro then fine, but until the risk of a random corpse coming back to life is reduced, the more things that can burn hunters, the better.

i think it would be better if you have salveskin, then you need use lantern or firebomb to get burning when downed...

flare shells last about 30 seconds and arent good enough to fully burn out a hunter so... not that op
