    Chem launcher Oxidizer

    Soooooooo why isn’t the oxidizer have its own status effect . I have the btsu gloves and been trying to figure out a combo . And I did fire chem and defender drone. But then I realized the fire shoots so slow and you have to detonate it .,which then becomes a waste because players or npc move out the way. Sooo this needs to be addressed, and the fire chem needs to self detonated. The skill powers is good . Good job devs

    I absolutely do NOT want the firestarter to self detonate. I have been using it almost nonstop and it is one of the best crowd control skills in the game.

    Want some breathing room for a rez? Want to slow a group rush? Want to light 7 bombs (they stack btw) at the same time?
    Want to give a damage buff to 3 allies at the same time?

    Firestarter does all that. It's one of the better more balanced skills in the game right now.

    So, I understand your frustration I was there myself with it. But just practice mate, you will NOT be sorry.

    I’m liking blinder + seekers. Both on a 9s CD. Blinder stops them so the seekers don’t miss, and procs the gloves.

    Bleed makes sense to me as a status affect for Oxidizer. Anything that can melt armour would melt skin and bone too and cause profuse bleeding. I think it might actually be poison though but don't quote me on that.

    i wouldn't mind if they decreased health damage of the thing but applied a status effect that increased armor damage.

    Maybe the status effect can be painful urination.
