Player Notes

 * Flamer, with the rank 6 Armor Damage evolution and all of the damage evolutions, is highly effective against Reaper enemies. For example, it can kill a Ravager and all of the Swarmers in 5 seconds on bronze.
 * Flamer is also very effective against Cerberus troops, as it effectively weakens shields and barriers.
 * While the skill is being used, the vorcha moves slower and cannot fire any weapons. BUT if you are shooting with the Reegar Carbine and activate Flamer BEFORE the clip is depleted and release the Fire-Button immediately after the activation you can move with normal speed while using the flamer.
 * The skill can be canceled using heavy melee, sprinting, or dodging, other than deactivation.
 * Flamer is considerably less useful against Geth enemies, as they do not stagger away from fire like organic enemies. Nevertheless, it still does considerable damage.
