Description

Random crits were off. Ghost firing speed was used.

Some of these weren't perfect but I was very CBA on going back to correct mistakes. The biggest mistake (IMO) was on the $2650 cranteen test where I forgot minicrits have ramp up and thus lost out on a couple hundred damage by drinking it at the start instead of waiting for the tank to get to me (not enough to make it 10 seconds quicker though). Although frankly no one is going to be playing it perfect 100% of the time anyway so /shrug.

The first two tests are a comparison of the money needed to max a flame thrower (max dmg max ammo and 3 cranteens). I decided to run the crit canteen test with 1 less canteen in exchange for an ammo tick (which used 100% of the money instead of leaving $150 left over) as I felt the extra damage from not having to run to ammo boxes every 10s would make up for the whole of the canteen, but I did not test this.

Final numbers in text form:
$2650 ammo cans: 77.945
$2650 crit cans: 87.638

Max Damage No Ammo ammo cans: 53.103
Max Damage No Ammo crit cans: 54.521

Max Damage With Ammo ammo cans: 51.451
Max Damage With Ammo crit cans: 44.728

And from the phlog/DF test for comparison
Phlog $2450: 49.283
DF $2650: 58.225

My conclusion is on a budget ammo canteens are better, but once damage can be maxxed then cranteens are better, especially if you do not have to buy ammo upgrades because you have a dispenser (which probably kept the MDNA/MDWA cranteen tests from being a few seconds lower). I think this test is a lot more ammo placement dependent than the flame thrower test and so it's going to vary a lot more on the map and teammates you have.
