The Detonator is a secondary weapon for the Pyro that exists in Team Fortress 2 Beta. It uses the Flare Gun model.
The weapon fires projectiles which deal slight damage on contact with an enemy as well as ignite them. Should a flare directly connect with a member of the opposing team who is already on fire, Mini-Crit damage will be inflicted by the projectile and the target's afterburn duration will be reset. Pressing secondary fire while the flare is in flight will cause it to detonate, creating a small explosion which damages and ignites enemy players caught in it. The knock back from the explosion can also be used to Flare jump in a manner similar to rocket or sticky jumping.
Pyros wielding the Detonator suffer a 20% increase in damage from their own explosive weapons.
The item has been released as the Detonator.

- 20% explosion damage vulnerability
- Alt-fire detonates flare in flight
- Detonation particle effect increased to better match the radius
- [Undocumented] Added a new sound effect for projectile.
- Hooked up new Detonator sounds
- Flares now detonate on impact with the world, but with a greatly reduced radius (manually detonated radius unchanged)
- Replaced +20% increased blast damage with +20% increased self blast damage
- [Undocumented] The Detonator will now deal mini-crits instead of crits, on burning targets
Bugs
- The afterburn of a flare projectile can harm a Scout under the effect of Bonk! Atomic Punch.
- If a Pyro were to reflect a flare and hit a target who then dies from the afterburn, the kill icon will be that of the Flare Gun and not the reflected flare icon.
- From a first-person view, the flare seems to fire from behind the Flare Gun, just like the Huntsman.
- When an enemy is hit with a detonated flare, the blood particles will come from where the flare was detonated, instead of the player.
