I made this video to help explain how a couple aspects of the flamethrower work

I’ve been reading a lot of concerns about how the flamethrower always misses and wanted to shed some light on the subject.

Enjoy!

Can barely hear your voice through the music, can you re-post with the audio edited?

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Recorded the audio while filming, for some reason the in game sounds are magnified 10x that what it sounds like normally for me. I’ll re-record the first segment in the morning and turn my in game sound waaaay down

for the record: you had a few misses yourself even with pointing at the enemy (0:49 for example).

unless the player is not plain stupid, every1 should know that u actualy have to look at the mob. this is the same for all weapons.
problem is that once the mob got out of your cone and behind you somehow, the following attacks wills till miss. extremly annoying in PvP.

but, thx alot for the air blast tip. i didnt knew it can reverse spells.

I missed a few times when the mob would run through me, I will admit that. It’s not so much people aren’t looking at the mob, it’s that that camera isn’t looking at it correctly. The point I’m trying to make is that you can strafe and still hit 95% of the time, it misses due to people not moving the camera as they strafe, the same applies to the poison dart volley.

Always good to have a workaround until they get the issue fixed.
A good, simple, clear, to the point video. Thumbs up!

All it needs for a fix is a change so that the graphical effect follows the actual effect.
