 The Degreaser |
|
| “ | A vintage gas station pump combined with a car muffler and an antique fire extinguisher provide the Pyro with all of his burning needs. A portable stove top burner provides 4 ignition sources.
— Degreaser publicity blurb
|
” |
The Degreaser is a community-created primary weapon for the Pyro. It is a makeshift flamethrower that is comprised of a gas pump, a car muffler, an exhaust pipe, a team-colored fire extinguisher, and a stove top burner.
The Degreaser reduces the delay caused by weapon switching from or to this weapon. Specifically, it takes 60% less time to switch to the Degreaser and 30% less time to switch away, which facilitates strategic use of weapon combos. However, damage caused by afterburn damage is reduced by 66%.
The Degreaser, like the Flame Thrower, Backburner, Rainblower, and Dragon's Fury, has the compression blast ability. However, using the compression blast costs 25 ammo instead of the default Flame Thrower's 20.
Afterburn reduces healing and shield resists from a Medi Gun by 20%.
The kill icon for the Degreaser was contributed by Psyke .

Note: Flame damage is proportional to particle lifetime instead of distance from target. Unlike most weapons, Critical hits are also affected by the scaling. Additionally, there is a very slight damage variance (±0.08 / particle) due to differences in particle angles.

March 28, 2018 Patch #2

Bugs
- The attribute -66% afterburn damage penalty is incorrect, as it actually deals 75% less afterburn damage when compared with the Flamethrower. This is because the Jungle Inferno Update increased the default afterburn damage from 3 to 4, but the attribute did not get updated.
- If a Pyro using the Degreaser reflects an afterburn inflicting projectile like a Flare Gun or a charged Cow Mangler 5000 shot and hits a player with it, the -66% afterburn damage penalty will still apply to the projectile's afterburn, despite it normally doing full afterburn damage.
- When
cl_flipviewmodels 1is enabled, fire particles still comes from the right side in the world view. - If the Degreaser is deployed for less than half of a second, the player does not receive the holster bonus after switching off to another weapon.
Trivia
- Degreasers are emulsifying agents used to remove heavy oils and grease; since flames consume fats easily, it can be called a literal type of "degreaser".
- Degreasers are a notorious fire hazard, and through the 1960s, gasoline stored in covered basins was the standard degreaser used when repairing cars at gas stations.
