Its still a little quirky but I have grown to like it, especially when under banshee rocket fire. It stops more flames from spreading for those precious seconds, and lets you put out fires elsewhere without the thing you just extinguished bursting back into flames as soon as you step away.

Always use the chemical spray. It doesn't take much longer than the extinguisher to put fires out, and under a spamming flamer there's nothing much either can do anyways. Chemical spray's fire-limiting ability is extremely useful for keeping guns going against flamers, and that makes it more worthwhile than the extinguisher.
Ccrack:
the chem spray is better on the galleon, it keeps fire at bay long enouth for you to run to other components since its a big ship. if you took the normal extinguisher by the time you put a fire out and move on to the next component its burst in to flames again

Another tip, when your captain doesn't specify ammo, I typically go for heat sinks just because they inhibit fires while the gun is loaded with them. You probably already knew that but it couldn't hurt to say anything.

1.1.4 kind of killed heatsink. Since the chem spray can now be used to prevent fires in advance, and it takes 8 stacks of fire to disable a gun, it just isn't anywhere near as useful as it used to be.
