Flamer (Fallout: New Vegas)

The flamer is a weapon $$

Gameplay
The flamer is classified as an Energy Weapon and can be modded with the Flamer Expanded Tanks. With a high enough Energy Weapons skill, the flamer will deal high damage to all forms of unarmored and lightly armored enemies (giant ants, most humans, cazadores, mantises, and spore carriers).

It produces a cone of fire from the nozzle, capable of hitting multiple enemies or allies simultaneously. Additionally, it is capable of hitting multiple body parts and inflicting widespread damage.

Durability
The flamer can shoot a total of about 995 times using standard fuel, the equivalent of 17 reloads, or 9 reloads when modified with expanded tanks, from full condition before breaking. The Incinerator and heavy incinerator both fire the same amount of fuel before breaking.

Bugs

 * There are many bugs associated with this weapon. One such bug causes the handheld part of the weapon to not disappear when put away; waving around as if an extension of the hand.
 * Another glitch (possibly caused by modding the weapon) is when the tank part of the weapon appears to fall off and bounce, much like when dropping a weapon, in third-person. When the player returns to first-person the tank disappears from the ground.
 * Also when upgraded, the flamer tanks may permanently appear on your back, even if you drop the weapon. Exiting and restarting the game will fix this. It appears that this bug is triggered by traveling between areas while wielding the weapon. Also switching to another weapon with a pack will fix the bug. Getting your weapons taken at a casino or similar place will also fix this. An easy fix is to equip another weapon *without* a pack, then equip the flamer, then finally unequip the flamer, and the pack should be off.
 * Sometimes if you equip the flamer, the flamer tanks will not appear, to resolve this problem simply re-equip it.
 * When hot keyed this weapon is incorrectly labeled with the explosive weapon icon.
 * The flamer can shoot through walls, windows, and force-fields.
 * The flamer can sometimes appear to still be firing when the player has exhausted all fuel and just makes the sound but no fire actually comes out of the nozzle. Note; this doesn't affect the condition and can easily be fixed by releasing the fire button
