The only time I can see bringing buff hammer as a pilot is long range Spire or Galleon. Otherwise you should be flying.

If your hull is getting spammed with a flamer, then it'll take you several seconds to put it out with the chem spray. Meanwhile, every other component that's on fire will be dying. And while you're spending time using several sprays on each component, the hull protection will run out and it'll take damage anyways. With the extinguisher, on the other hand, you can spray one component once, run to the next one, spray it once or twice, etc. The repair from the mallet should be more than enough to counter any damage done by fire.

How many times have i tried to explain what u just said to other people the time wasted triying to use the chem spray is massive and it reduces your over all repair worth if u wanna run chem make sure the other engie has a Fire extenguisher cheers.

What are people's thoughts about greased rounds for the primary engineer? Normally I bring or tell the primary engineer to bring what is most effective for the side gun (flame-lesmok, banshee/artimis-burst). However I realize the faster the side gun can empty its clip the faster the main engine can get back to his primary job. Also on fast passes the window of opportunity for the side gun is very slim, and the more shots you can get out, the better.

I think a literal quality over quantity type explanation fits nicely. Depending on the boat, I think it's better to have what is best for what you want it doing rather than a general purpose ammo that may get you killed if the gun doesn't achieve what you really wanted it to.
