Fire Extinguisher - your opinion?

<< < (4/7) > >>

obliviondoll:
I generally like having both on my ships. Both offer good benefits, but both have their limitations. There are many situations where Chemspray is better, but in my experience, there are just as many opportunities where the Extinguisher is a better option.

pandatopia:
I tend to bring it as the 3rd engineer on a ship, or on a ship that is hard to spray such as the mobula, or a ship where you need to be firing regardless of how much damage you're taking, like on a mobula or spire. Then afterwards you can go extinguish that 20 stacks on your balloon.

Mr.Bando:
-use against spot fires you might get when struck by a strong explosive damage shot, ie heavy flak. They have a good chance of setting things on fire.
-as third engineer with chem, fireX and wrench if you worry about flamer heavy opponents.

But as things stand at the moment, chemspray is your main defense against flamers while fireX is your plan B.

Alistair MacBain:
As things stand there is barely any use for a ext.
Maybe as second engi on a galleon unless the enemy has flamers where youre ext is useless.

Outside of this situation dont use it. The chem will serve better.
Low fire-> its fine
high fire-> spray and its fine

Mr.Bando:
If fireX didn't need to share the repair cool down and can put fires out in the middle of it, would it still be OPed?
