flamethrower

A flame-throwing apparatus.

Perfect

Despite the flamethrower's deceptively low damage rating (1d21-2 (Avg: 1.5)), it can dish out some serious damage. The weapon fires 9 projectiles each time it is used, and those projectiles can penetrate multiple times due to the flamethrower's extremely high penetration rating. The flamethrower also increases a target's temperature by 4d204-80 (Avg: 42) on hit, which will set most things on fire and cause additional damage.

The most challenging part of using a flamethrower will be keeping enough oil on hand. Serious pyromaniacs might consider making a trip to the Asphalt Mines to stock up.
