 The Detonator |
|
The Detonator is currently a secondary weapon for the Pyro in Team Fortress 2 Beta. Currently, it is remodeled after the Flare Gun. The Alt-fire detonates flare in flight, and the detonation does a small explosion that catches players on fire. The explosion can also be used to boost yourself. It has a 20% explosion damage vulnerability.

(Beta) February 11, 2011 Patch
- The Detonator, a new Flare Gun, has been added. Its stats are:
- Alt-fire detonates flare in flight
- Does a small explosion that catches players on fire
- 20% explosion damage vulnerability
- Alt-fire detonates flare in flight
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.
