The knock back from the explosion can also be used to enhance a jump in a manner similar to rocket or sticky jumping. Players wielding the Detonator have a 20% explosion vulnerability.

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.
