Flamethrower can be abused for 5 reasons:
1) The fire effect makes it very hard to see, which is extremely hard to counter when in narrow corridors (which most maps are).
2) The kit has the 2 best items (grenade and TNT)
3) It takes little aiming skill as the AOE is large
4) It has lots of ammo
5) Its range is too far
One of these should be changed, preferably the fire effect - which should instead be changed to normal particle damage to bring it on level with the other guns.
