Now I'm not 100% sure if napalm is better than the flamethrower in pvp because me and my friend tested the damage Bo weapons level 40, and without spells used I defeated him but the damage was very close. My friend was an operative, and I was a commando. But, I think if skills are used, I'm sure napalm packs a larger punch in an actual fight because it is quicker. However, I don't think the overall dps is correct for the hive flamethrower. I'll have to experiment later with it, but it seems it is great for commandos who are stacked with defense and stamina. So far though, napalm still remains best and it is a pink item compared to the flamethrowers blue quality and napalm has superior stats
