The flamebow is a ranged weapon added by the Biotech DLC.

Acquisition

Flamebows cannot be crafted. Instead, they can be purchased from any traders,^[Which?] or obtained from raiders from savage impid tribes.

Summary

Projectile

?

Pyromaniac pawns equipped with flamebows will have a +5 Pyromaniac has incendiary weapon mood buff.

Analysis

Can be deadly in the hands of the enemy if you're unprepared.

Great for fueling ovens, with a high throughput on fire compared to both molotov cocktails and incendiary launchers due to RoF and fuel splash.

Decent area denial tool
