Editing Flamethrower (section)

=== Damage ===
The flamethrower deals a steady amount of damage per second, and also causes specimens to set on fire, dealing additional damage over time. Flamethrower has a base damage of 12 per sprayed gasoline unit to deal this as splash in a small radius and 18 damage on direct hit. That splash damage can hurt the wielder if one is too close to solid surfaces or their target. [[Firebug]] perk gets bonus damage to both flamethrower base damage and afterburn damage over 10 seconds.

As of the Hillbilly Horrors update, hitting burning enemies with the flamethrower no longer resets the cumulative damage. Meaning that more damage is done over time.
