The '''Scorch Shot''' is a [[Steam Workshop|community-created]] [[weapons#pyrosecondary|secondary weapon]] for the [[Pyro]]. It is a {{botignore|flare gun}} with a gray barrel, an orange painted muzzle, and a black grip held in place with pins on the underside of the barrel, notably seen in [[Meet the Pyro]].

The '''Scorch Shot''' is a [[Steam Workshop|community-created]] [[weapons#pyrosecondary|secondary weapon]] for the [[Pyro]]. It is a {{botignore|flare gun}} with a gray barrel, an orange painted muzzle, and a black grip held in place with pins on the underside of the barrel.
  
This {{botignore|flare gun}} shoots a flare that bounces off enemies as well as allies and explodes, igniting all enemies caught in the explosion and knocking back the player hit with the flare. Flares that don't directly hit an enemy explode instantly on contact with an object or touching a player a second time. Both the impact from the flare and the explosion can damage and ignite enemies, potentially hitting the same enemy twice. Only a direct hit with the weapon will cause [[knock back]], though it will do 35% less damage compared to direct hits with other {{botignore|flare guns}}. Should a flare strike an enemy already on fire with Direct Hit or explosion, [[Critical hits#Mini-crits|mini-crit]] damage will be inflicted and the target's [[afterburn]] duration will be reset.  
+
Flares fired from this gun bounce off enemies as well as allies before exploding, which ignites all enemies caught in the explosion and knocks back the enemy hit with the flare. Flares that do not directly hit an enemy explode instantly on contact with an object or touching a player a second time. Both the impact from the flare and the explosion can damage and ignite enemies, potentially hitting the same enemy twice. Only a {{botignore|direct hit}} with the weapon causes [[knockback]], though it does 35% less damage compared to {{botignore|direct hit}}s from other {{botignore|flare guns}}. Should a flare strike an enemy already on fire with a {{botignore|direct hit}} or explosion, [[Critical hits#Mini-crits|Mini-Crit]] damage is inflicted, the strength of the knockback increases, and the target's [[afterburn]] duration is reset. Enemies killed directly by the explosion (not by afterburn or a direct hit) are [[Gibs|gibbed]].
  
The knock back itself behaves similarly to a [[Compression Blast]] except that the pitch the flare hits the target has no bearing on how he is knocked away. That is, a shot fired from above and a shot fired from below will knock the target away in the same way. The resulting knock back strength depends on the distance from the player to the target, gaining up to 3x more strength at very long ranges. <ref>[http://i.imgur.com/yTU9k.png3 Explanation E-Mail from a Valve employee]</ref> Should a flare strike an enemy already on fire will increase the knockback. The knock back from the explosion can also be used to [[Jumping#Flare jump|flare jump]] in a manner similar to [[Jumping#Basic rocket jump|rocket]] or [[Jumping#Basic sticky jump|sticky jumping]], though it doesn't gain as much height as with the [[Detonator]].  
+
The knockback itself behaves similarly to a [[compression blast]], except that the angle in which the flare hits an enemy has no effect on the direction they are pushed back; that is, shots fired either from above or from below knock the target away in the same way. The explosion of the Scorch Shot's flares can also be used to propel the player into the air with a [[Jumping#Flare jump|flare jump]], though this jump gives less distance but lower self-damage than jumps from the [[Detonator]] due to the Scorch Shot's 35% self-damage force penalty and 35% lower damage, respectively.
  
[[Taunting]] with the Scorch Shot equipped will perform the [[Execution]] kill taunt. If the flare hits at close range, the flare does 400 damage on impact; otherwise it acts like a normal shot from the gun. The projectile is fired as a normal shot, and will travel depending on where your reticule was at the time of taunting.
+
Flares fired from this weapon can destroy [[stickybomb]]s, in the same fashion as the [[Detonator]], [[Scottish Resistance]], [[Quickiebomb Launcher]], and any [[hitscan]] weapon.

Huhuhuhuhu...
The Pyro on sinister weapons

The Scorch Shot is a community-created secondary weapon for the Pyro. It is a flare gun with a gray barrel, an orange painted muzzle, and a black grip held in place with pins on the underside of the barrel.

Flares fired from this gun bounce off enemies as well as allies before exploding, which ignites all enemies caught in the explosion and knocks back the enemy hit with the flare. Flares that do not directly hit an enemy explode instantly on contact with an object or touching a player a second time. Both the impact from the flare and the explosion can damage and ignite enemies, potentially hitting the same enemy twice. Only a direct hit with the weapon causes knockback, though it does 35% less damage compared to direct hits from other flare guns. Should a flare strike an enemy already on fire with a direct hit or explosion, Mini-Crit damage is inflicted, the strength of the knockback increases, and the target's afterburn duration is reset. Enemies killed directly by the explosion (not by afterburn or a direct hit) are gibbed.

The knockback itself behaves similarly to a compression blast, except that the angle in which the flare hits an enemy has no effect on the direction they are pushed back; that is, shots fired either from above or from below knock the target away in the same way. The explosion of the Scorch Shot's flares can also be used to propel the player into the air with a flare jump, though this jump gives less distance but lower self-damage than jumps from the Detonator due to the Scorch Shot's 35% self-damage force penalty and 35% lower damage, respectively.

Flares fired from this weapon can destroy stickybombs, in the same fashion as the Detonator, Scottish Resistance, Quickiebomb Launcher, and any hitscan weapon.

Taunting with the Scorch Shot equipped results in the Execution kill taunt. Flares that hit within 100 Hammer units[1] do 420 damage on impact; otherwise they act like normal shots from the gun. The projectile is fired as a normal shot, and travels depending on where the player's reticule was at the time of taunting. Unlike other taunt attacks, this taunt always consumes 1 ammo from the ammo pool.

The Scorch Shot was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

  • If the player fires the last flare and taunts, the player is still able to do the kill taunt.
  • Firing a Critical hit with the Scorch Shot flare causes the following shots fired with the Execution kill taunt to deal only Critical hit damage (59) instead of the full taunt damage (420); this effect lasts indefinitely and is removed by dying, switching class, or sometimes by making normal attacks with the Scorch Shot or other weapons.
  • Due to a model error, part of the barrel doesn't move when loading in new flares, which allows players to see through part of the barrel. Additionally, one side of the hammer does not move with the rest of it, which allows players to see through part of the hammer.
