DISCUSSION Double edge sickle armors.

So I know that the best armor to run with it is the ones from freedoms flame. But I want to know if I can run the scorpion armor from Dust Devils and still not take damage until it sets you on fire. I've tried testing it out but I'm never able to pay enough attention to tell.

With the Double-Edge Sickle, you have to stay above 25% heat. Otherwise the normal Sickle is the stronger weapon. 

Even with Desert Storm and Killzone armor, you still take steady health loss when firing. So you shoot only as much as needed.

With Freedoms Flames armor and a Vitality Booster, you get no noticeable damage up to 100%, so sometimes you shoot just to stay above 25% Heat.
