Rifleman Flamers
Posts: 394
I have not come across any Axis infantry that can stand up to even two of the Rifles with flamers, then when all four of them get one plus a BAR all Axis infantry seem to melt away. It forces the Axis into going for vehicles to counter it, which I then go for AT Guns until I have enough fuel to start spamming E8's.
Anyone else use flamer rifles in 2v2?

Permanently BannedThey blow up way to easily and don't allow to get flamethrower back
If OKW get Obers, flames will backfire very fast....
Ez8' also cost too much to spam anymore,
You are better off going cap with m20. spam mines
Go Major make sherman (depending on threat make m36 or another sherman)
Better not waste muni on flamers

i prefer to get flamers and when obers come out ill just send a blob of 2 rifles to take on the obers and if its an ober blob then ill just blob all my rifles and burn the obers. Mass Flamers get insta crits which is very good and push the obers around which allows you to move in closer whilst the obers are in the process of getting in position again.
I try to do this, but then there is the predicament where one of the flamethrowers blow up and your entire blob gets covered in fire... It would be nice if they didn't blow up, which would make sense why they cant be bought back.

The stupid design of COH2 flamer making them to easy to get crit and explode, and 60 muni wasted, right away.

Absolutely NOT worth.I really think they need to reexamine flamers in general. The explosions are way too consistent. They are way too unreliable right now.

I recommend getting the grenade upgrade with flamers, as smokes can let you get up close with less risk of spontaneous combustion.
Why use the flare when you can recon? Accessibility and duration. The flare comes faster than the major, and often times my major will be chilling behind at a fwd retreat pt. The flare also lasts surprisingly long, definitely longer than the random type of recon pass the major scrapes together for you.
Anyway, flamers aren't really a flexible, must buy upgrade, and you cant just sit back and watch it work like others. I do wish they'd fix the one time purchase bug/feature, but I just buy it on one of the 3 other squads i probably have if one explodes, so it's not a dealbreaker.
