Torpedo WildFire Perk

So, I have just been using the torpedo after I got my legendary wildfire perk. I have achieved to get around 250k damage in the weapons achievement in 3 days. But, what I noticed is that, the torpedo did not even light on fire once .

My torpedo does around 2.4k damage and therefore roughly I have landed around 90 shots with torpedo. 90 shots and still not even once lighting on fire. Come on! That sucks, saying that it has 20% chance to light on fire.

It's more like it's 1% chance. The only time I saw torp light on fire was on custom battles when I was just practicing my aim.

Is this a bug or something. Because, I hate it right now. Also, has anyone elas faced this issue?

 

I think you must have just missed the fire, because I use similar perks (rare and epic) both in my big torpedo and swift torpedo and they both light the fire regularly just like they should.

 

Nope, I haven't missed. I watch it closely Everytime. But it never lights on fire.

 

So, no one is experiencing this except me?

 

I'm experiencing getting hit with it. I took a 1500 damage torp and the wildfire took me up to 2100 health lost. ow

 

I want the fire chance to be as strong as the grenade. This will allow me to combo my cannon more. Plus, this wouldn’t make a huge difference. You have a bigger chance of hitting someone with a grenade than a torp, and it has a shorter cooldown.

 

Ok who said that lighting people on fire with a torp is op? I wanna punch you. Come. Run your face into my fist.

 

Because Torps don't do enough damage as it is...

 

Lag?

 

They do 2k. A cannon can do that plus some. And frost is dead. So no, they don’t do enough damage.

 

You are talking about a swift / tri-torp right? A big torp can deal 3k+ and that's not considering a group impact.

 

These two comments contradict each other.

One says they don't do enough damage, and the other says they do enough.

 

First one was sarcasm bud

My opinion is that the wildfire perk is super good, and if a perk that powerful had gone to a cannon or another top tier weapon, I would not be okay with it. But because it goes to torp, that’s fine. Torps are only average -> slightly above average imo.

 

I would say, increase the chance of legendary perk by 10% which will make it 30% to light some one on fire. This would be ideal. As of now there is a very little difference between an epic and a legendary.

There is a difference of just 2.5%.

 

What do you mean? What does lag has to do with torpedo lighting someone on fire.

 

20% is pretty damn generous if you ask me.

 

I wanna kill people Elmo.

Same dmg as flare cannon

 

Yeah. I agree.

 

Remember that you still have to hit the torpedo(not as easy at sounds, unless you're at close range, but you still have the arming range), and it can't be used well in a 1v1, unlike flare cannon.
