Cleansing Flame is a modified, high-capacity flamer. Unlike the standard variant it has three jet nozzles, three large fuel tanks, and orange cables. Possibly due to more efficient fuel combustion, the flame jet is blue rather than the usual red, indicating a more vaporized gas fuel and a more intense heat.
Compared to the standard flamer, the Cleansing Flame has a superior base damage, longer range, and a burn effect that steadily improves based on the user’s Energy Weaponsskill.

Bugs
PC The Cleansing Flame's blue flame effect will not appear when the weapon is used, all that will appear is a tiny transparent flame cone at the nozzle. Sometimes exiting to third person you can see the blue flame, but upon reentering first person the blue flames will disappear again.
PC Sometimes, if Gloria Van Graff is dead, Cleansing Flame will not be purchasable from Vendortron.
PC Use this fix in the console: startquest xx00093c, then resetquest xx00093c. This could also be done in reverse order.
