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.

- Base: 3 damage every 0.5 seconds for 10 seconds (60 damage total)
