Winter Wonderland Weapon Question

Real quick question, which of the Winter Wonderland weapons is most like the plasma flamethrower? One of my characters uses that primarily, and I figure it would be best for them to use something familiar.

    Other question. I have the snow sniper, long range single target. What good does it have? The firing rate is low, the second mode hits hard but firing rate is even lower. The only good use I see is in the first fase of the main snow fight, when you can stroll the area and take out single snow man.

    Because of the quick spawning anything with slow firing rate is inferior in my view. The double pistols and the thing that works as the automatic rifle perform well.

    For fun? I give my characters the snow weapon that's closest to what they use in the rest of the game. If that means a slow firing rate, then so be it. Does dps really matter in the winter wonderland?

    The sniper is useful during the basic snowman invasion, since targets are spread across the wonderland. The extra range allows you to pick off some of them without having to run all the way to them, and puts you out of range of most snowman counter attacks. For Tides of Ice and Cone of Conduct I wouldn't recommend it since you usually benefit far more from AoE weapons.

    I definitely like The Snowblower for AoE purposes though.

    The universe has a wonderful sense of humor. The trick is learning how to take a joke.
