Helldivers 2： Flamethrower vs Chargers (new update tactics)

Following a nerf to the railgun, the flamethrower received a 50% damage buff, allowing it to eliminate Chargers using roughly 70% to an entire canister of fuel.

Flamethrower usage carries notable drawbacks, such as reduced user movement speed to a backstep, friendly fire risks, self-ignition from contacting burning melee enemies, and a reliance on medic armor for frequent stimming.
