The firestarter pistol emits an orange beam of concentrated fire. Like all beam weapons in Hellgate: London, it locks onto the target and tracks them as they move. Once you hit something with the Firestarter, the gun will shoot until the target dies, providing it doesn't move behind something solid (another monster, another player, a wall, etc) that blocks the beam.
A character armed with two firestarters can focus both beams on the same target, or shoot each at something different. It's generally best to concentrate on one monster, killing it quickly before turning to the next, rather than slowly draining the life of two monsters at the same time.
Firestarters are a popular weapon for Darkspawn Snipers and Scouts as well, and a dangerous one to face in their hands, since dodging a beam is much more difficult than dodging a fireball or other incoming projectile.
