BPoole Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I got it earlier today and have it leveled to 15 with a potato in it. I am blown away by how horribly this thing fails. Admittedly, I did not read anything about it before crafting, but even against Infested on Io it is worthless. It seems its not even capable of hitting one enemy at once, which is absurd considering its a flame thrower. Is there any way to make this weapon effective or is it just flat out bad?

Egioh Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 imho damage should stay the way it is, but with multi-hitting enemies in a cone. Right now it's single target, which makes no sense for its stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hydrater Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) We can't discuss anything until you define "worst"Worst in what? DPS? Burst Damage? Range? AoE? Effects?I can say stuff like Ogris is worst because it isn't ninja enough. Edited July 31, 2013 by hydrater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VScipii26 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I can say stuff like Ogris is worst because it isn't ninja enough. Well then all but about five weapons would be defined as horrible by you. Anyway, Grakata says hi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can say stuff like Ogris is worst because it isn't ninja enough. Worst as in just flat out worst. It has no purpose at all. Low damage, poor ammo efficiency, only effective against weak infested, low range, only hits one enemy at a time, and requires clan research to craft. I have seen Grakata cited as the worst primary, and while it is one of the only primaries I do not own, I can't imagine it being worse than Ignis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was decent the last time I used it, not sure about now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oizen Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) The problem isnt the Ignis itself. Well... it KINDA is. but Its the Fact Elemental Damage quickly become garbage with how armor works. That and it doesnt function like an actual flame thrower. Honestly it should work more like Team Fortress 2's flamethrower, as in an AOE cone. Right now it just stops at the first thing it hits. I remember killing things on Xini with mine, so maybe you're not modding it well. They buffed everything on Xini, its pretty garbage now.

SameSame Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Gotta say, hated Ignis at first, levelled it to around 17 with potato and then left it while I levelled other primary weapons instead. Went back to it recently to level it to 30 for mastery. It seems that after I gained more experience with modding the other weapons, I was able to put a better loadout on it and found that it's actually pretty effective!! Agree it should have cone damage instead of single target. Works more like the Flux at the moment, and I think that is wrong for a flame thrower. But worst primary...no way!! I like the Ignis!! Play with your mod loadouts and you should see better results. Look at the base stats for the weapon you are using, including things like base crit chance and damage and then mod to suit. Good luck!
