Speargun is literally made for Flamer builds, it allows me to switch off gas dog and pick up warp pack or supply pack. Been running it on D10 with my torcher, it's really fun.

>Could just use gas nades
The thing is, it won't stop Charger's charge nor fleshmob's. The stagger is important as it allows the gas to blind to pulse in and the confusion takes effect as normal gas application won't blind the enemy until they finish their attack order. The stagger window also allows you to get in and start crisping the bugger up.

Also, you can save retards from getting charged from the distance. Saved several people from getting ninja charged from behind because my harpoon stopped the charge. Honestly, I like it. It just needs slightly more ammo and it'll be perfect for support divers.

And actually, Speargun does more damage compared to Railgun Safe Mode.
