Role:
The Breaker Incendiary an excellent crowd control weapon against small and unarmored targets, such as the Scavengers and Warriors among the Terminids, or the Troopers among the Automatons. With its large magazine, its capable of delivering a large volume of fire in addition to setting targets ablaze to burn them overtime. Unlike most shotguns and its fellow Breakers, the Incendiary lacks any sort of stopping power, making it unable to stagger targets. It makes up for this in its ability to bypass armor and set targets on fire, burning them overtime. However, one shouldn't rely on its ability to burn targets to take out heavier opponents, as the burning may vary depending on how large the enemy is.

Against armored targets, the Incendiary, while capable of bypassing the armor with fire, will have its projectiles richote off the armor. It's recommended when using the Breaker Incendiary to target weak spots against enemies to deliver maximum damage.
