Primary fire is replaced with gasoline spray that coats surfaces and players
Gasoline stays on players for 10 seconds and on surfaces for 15

Secondary fire is a fire-blast that ignite gasoline, placing fire on that surface for 8 seconds and dealing mini-crit damage against gasolined enemies, followed by afterburn

Gasoline can also be ignited by flare guns and ignited hunstman arrows

-15% shorter after burn duration

so what stops a pyro from just spamming 3 fire circles in one spaot to make a flank completely inaccessable

#

especially on the point

#

and this weapon is just completely unusable in combat. these downsides are awful

fervent jewel
#

well what would you suggest instead

#

Ignoring the specifics, area denial on pyro is genuinely an interesting idea

#

I don't think this execution quite works though

fervent jewel
#

how about instead of the range of the flames being decreased, it's simply the overal size of the flame particles, so your flames won't hit as many targets at once

#

like a more streamlined fire spray

#

how long do these rings of fire even last i'd say that is a very important part

silver wasp
#

I think you're trying to do too much

#

Let the rings speak for themselves

#

i think id rather give her a Molotov cocktail and be done with it honestly

#

this is, a lot

#

anyone who has ideas for how i could rework this feel free to tell me

#

i just really like the ring of fire idea and want to design the best possible version of it

broken glacier
#

maybe make it more of a trap like stickys

#

that you activate with m2

#

or sth like that

#

wait a sec imma cook sth up real quick

fervent jewel
#

so you create the ring somewhere, and can them spring it to life at any point?

#

that could be cool

#

maybe a bit too much like stickies though

broken glacier
#

M1 has been replaced with a spray of gasoline which can be sprayed on walls
M2 has been replaced with a big blast of flames that can destroy projectiles and does damage. it will ignite any gasoline it hits

fervent jewel
#

hmm

broken glacier
#

m1 does 50%
players witht he gasoline effect get minicrit by your m2
making your airblast more the combat tool

#

make of that what you will

fervent jewel
#

as long as this can still create fire rings i'd be cool with this

broken glacier

#

would the flare gun be able to ignite the gas?

broken glacier
#

maybe make the gasoline disappear in like 10s and the flames stay like 6s

broken glacier

i mean it's your concept
