Showstopper Blessing on Flamer is garbage

Did some testing on it. 15% chance on elite (not including specialists like trappers, dogs, etc) kill for a tiny amount of damage (im showing 33 damage to flak) in a tiny radius probably around 2m doesn’t seem to be worth ever taking. It doesn’t even seem like it staggers much.

Please buff it.

especially since the elites are the LAST ONES to die and the weapon is already an AREA OF EFFECT weapon.

That AoE won’t damage anything.

I have that trait but it’s a massive joke. Waiting for crafting to add power instead of that crap.

It would be much better if it were like 15% on any kill to detonate with maybe a 100% chance on elite kill to explode. I would definitely take 15% on any kill without the elite kill though.

But then again, many many MANY blessings seem basically completely worthless and set up to be combine fodder. That is the only reason I can think of that their values are so bad.

I’ve tried using a Tier 4 20% Showstopper and even at 20% it rarely does anything in Difficulty 4 & 5 missions. If the blessings percentage chance was to be doubled to 40% I could see it being usable but where it currently stands even at a max 20% isn’t worth it.
