In the current meta, the Fire Bottle occupies a niche position. Its moderate time-to-kill of 6.000s at close range makes it viable in most combat scenarios. The weapon requires 3 shots to eliminate a full-health target at close range, 3 at medium range, and 4 at long range. With 20 rounds per minute and a 30-round magazine, the Fire Bottle can secure kills within a single magazine. Its headshot multiplier of 2x means skilled players can reduce TTK to 3.000s with consistent headshots. Range performance sees damage drop to 90% at medium range and 75% at long range. Players should prefer close-to-medium range encounters.
