Editing Pyro (Highlander) (section)

==== The Degreaser ====

The Degreaser is the most widely used flame thrower in competitive play due to its 60% faster weapon deploy time and 30% faster weapon holster time. This allows the Pyro to swap between weapons almost instantly, thus allowing for more diversity in his play style when faced with differing situations during a match. The -66% afterburn damage penalty is a negligible downside to The Degreaser due to the fact that there are many, many ways to nullify afterburn, from inherent immunities, health regen and getting healed by a Medic or healthpack. Its fire particle damage is also nearly identical to the stock Flame Thrower, due to the way the game engine handles rounding. The Degreaser was popularized when the "Puff and Sting" combination was considered the strongest load out for the Pyro, which involved setting a target alight with the Degreaser, then using the faster weapon switch to take out the Axtinguisher, gaining the critical damage bonus from it. Nowadays, the Degreaser is most commonly paired with shotguns for better 1v1 capability or for more active pyros who need the switch speed, since the switch time on the Stock Flame Thrower is long enough for an afterburn immune enemy to stop being considered "on fire". The switch speed is also important for baiting out projectile reflects and getting to your melee weapon quickly, which can be crucial when running the Homewrecker.
