The Detonator is a secondary weapon for the Pyro. It is only available in the Team Fortress 2 Beta. Currently, it uses the Flare Gun model.
The weapon fires flares that travel the same distance and deal the same damage on contact with an enemy. However, pressing secondary fire whilst the flare is in flight will cause it to detonate, creating a small explosion which damages and ignites enemy players. The knock back from the explosion can also be used to Flare jump in a manner similar to rocket or sticky jumping. Players wielding the Detonator have a 20% explosion vulnerability.
Since the item is still in an unreleased stage, these attributes may be changed or the weapon may be scrapped entirely.
