A defensive madman; the Pyromaniac can keep the dinosaurs at bay, though he also has to get up close and personal to take them out.

Tactical Summary[]

The Pyromaniac deserves his name, and if his custom-built Flamesaw isn’t proof enough, then his role on the mercenary team is. The Flamethrower part of his weapon is effective for keeping dinosaurs at bay, but with its limited range he has to wait until they get close to begin with. Then there’s the Chainsaw part, and that needs to get in even closer. When ranged destruction is called for, the Pyromaniac does carry around a few grenades for such a purpose. Despite his seemingly reckless nature, his teammates will often rely on him for protection from worse creatures.

The Pyromaniac’s flames can make short work of an entire Compsognathus horde, but when it comes to the T. rex, he has to decide if he really wants to get up that close.

Weapons and Utility Equipment[]

Flamesaw
FLAMETHROWER
This gasoline-powered flamethrower delivers intense flames over a fairly short distance. The fire will make short work of anything caught within it, enough to make any dinosaur reconsider a frontal approach.

Flamesaw
CHAINSAW
This secondary part of the Flamesaw is a gas-guzzling machine, and the most deadly melee weapon in the mercenary team’s arsenal.


Grenade
GRENADE
When burning or cutting isn’t an option, and a bit of range is needed, pull the pin and give the Grenade a toss. The explosion is impressive, but only a few of these can be carried at a time.

Strategy[]

Use your flamethrower to set enemies on fire, use your chainsaw for when you're being chased by raptors and spitters in tight corners!

You can use your flamethrower to eliminate acid puddles made by spitters by setting the puddles on fire!

Your grenades can deal massive damage to any dinos, remember to give it a good toss far away from yourself!
