“ | The concept THEY warned us was TOO HOT for the internet! The weapon THEY ordered us NOT TO SHIP! For the class THEY BANNED from EVERY SINGLE day of the Uber Update!
— Detonator publicity blurb
|
” |
The Detonator is a community-created secondary weapon for the Pyro. It is a Flare Gun with a modified elongated barrel attached, an extra curved sight, and helical paint designs on the chamber.
This weapon fires unique firework "flare" projectiles which, upon contact with an enemy, will deal slight damage as well as set them alight. The flare compare with Flare Gun deals 25% less damage. Should a flare strike an enemy already on fire with Direct Hit or explosion, mini-crit damage will be inflicted and the target's afterburn duration will be reset.
The weapon's main trait, however, is its eponymous detonation ability. While a flare is in flight, pressing alt-fire will cause it to explode, creating a small blast radius which damages and ignites nearby enemy players, additionally destroying sticky bombs. Flares will also explode upon contact with the world, but this explosion will not damage or knock back enemies. The world impact explosion can be used to flare jump in a manner similar to rocket or sticky jumping. However, flares do 50% more damage to self, reducing the usage of this technique.
Taunting with the Detonator equipped will perform the Hadouken kill taunt.
The Detonator was previously tested in Team Fortress 2 Beta.

Bugs

- When an enemy is hit with a detonated flare, the blood particles will come from where the flare was detonated, instead of the player.
Trivia
- The Detonator's distinctive tiger-stripe paint job is a nod to the customized similarly-painted version of M79 "Thumper" grenade launcher featured in Apocalypse Now, the 1979 American epic war film set during the Vietnam War.
- In the Team Fortress 2 Beta, the jump height for the Detonator was much higher than it is now. The jump height was reduced greatly when it was added to the game.
