When I load out with the Breaker Incendiary, one of my friends will occasionally yell “WHY AM I ON FIRE?!” and I just have to play it off like I have no idea.

Yeah, but there’s still the issue that burning damage doesn’t appear to work for anyone but the host. Unless you’re leading those squads, there’s still no reason to use the Breaker Incendiary or napalm.

Yeah, someone did some testing and showed it a few days ago. Allegedly gas might also be affected.

How does the fire breaker interact with armor? I know fire is supposed to ignore it, but I’m not sure if the exact interaction between armor piercing and fire.

The bullet damage doesn’t penetrate, but the fire damage does. So it can still kill things like Hive Guards pretty easily. I usually don’t use it against bots though, but maybe it’s better on this latest patch?

Excellent! Yeah it seems like a pretty significant buff, I’m excited to try it out.

I’m excited for the flame hulk insta-gibs from across the outpost.
