What if when you fired, a ring of fire will burst forth and ignite enemies within (a short) range?

I need this so much even if it was just a cosmetic with no stats boost. Please Valve.
long chin man 26 Oct, 2019 @ 6:48pm 
please god no. im tired of pyro having broken god weapons please stop
cam 26 Oct, 2019 @ 6:27pm 
yes
Shyren 14 Oct, 2019 @ 5:37pm 
so just the back scatter but a shotgun for pyro?
cam 29 Sep, 2019 @ 2:35pm 
This looks badass like its a mix of the backburner and the panic attack and i mean what i say here what would be the ststa

100% crits player while on fire
5 shots
10% more damage while on fire

I NEED THIS, IT WOULD GO SO WELL WITH THE BACKBURNER
Riseph 16 Dec, 2018 @ 2:13pm 
@John Piss but its Festive, looks at item date, looks when ctf2w was created, look at the list of ctf2w's weapons literally linking back this page, yeah right copying
greg 13 Oct, 2018 @ 3:25pm 
Stop copying the custom items server
filiptuka2002 9 Apr, 2018 @ 8:55am 
i dont care about the stats. i would use it 24/7 even if it will be shitty downgrade.
Toaster 1 Apr, 2018 @ 2:29pm 
just like the backburner, except 1000x more creative in design.
Somerandomgit 16 Dec, 2017 @ 9:47am 
they should make it do mini crits from behind with a penalty of no random crits and slower reload speed.
Cadunkus 28 Sep, 2017 @ 11:35am 
I know what a few people have been saying here (mini-crits burning players) but I think then it will just become the new reserve shooter. The Pyro already has weapons that deal increased damage to burning players, all his flare guns and the axtinguisher already take the role of combo weapons.

Personally, I think it would be more interesting if it was made to make up for the backburner's insane airblast cost by destroying projectiles so the pyro can still keep his team from being completely destroyed by that crit-charged soldier or something.

I know the stats are decided by valve, but this is at least worthy of considering.
rrxii 28 Jan, 2017 @ 1:47pm 
Then again I just realized the stats are decided by valve, oops ;p
rrxii 24 Jan, 2017 @ 6:53pm 
Maybe lessen the dps, or even just take into consideration other comments or something in that ball park, and possible valve will push this as an item promised from the heavy vs pyro future update, as th weapon is idealistic, smooth, and definitely fits. In fact I'm shocked it has yet to be implemented.. but yeah.. tweak here and there and who knows?
Aqua Sauce 9 Jan, 2017 @ 9:06pm 
Make mag size bigger and this wep will be much more viable if ever added
Crazy Joe 5 Jan, 2017 @ 1:33pm 
Actually kinda fits the TF2 theme. Nice.
Crusty the Waifu Pillow 3 Dec, 2016 @ 1:09pm 
As a Pyro main, I love the idea behind this shotgun. Mini-crits on burning players. Heavies, one of few known hard counters to the Pyro, tend to suffer afterburn for a long time, so peppering a fleeing fattie with a few shots from the Calefactor to the caboose as he runs back to his medic should be enough to finish the job if your 'thrower of choice falls a bit short of doing so.
chunchunmemeo 3 Dec, 2016 @ 3:47am 
as the backburner is my favorite flamethrower i adore this so much, so i think that it's stats should be related to the backburner in some way like more damage behind or something like that i dont know I JUST LOVE IT TOO MUCH OK #BACKBURNER4LIFE
RoxxasTheDemonslayer 10 Nov, 2016 @ 8:25pm 
pyro reaaly needs his own shotgun.
WITH FIRE.
FlameThrowerFIM 10 Nov, 2016 @ 5:48pm 
About time we got a new shotgun for Pyro, we usually have either stock skins or flare guns. Nice job!
MINTJAM 29 Sep, 2016 @ 2:12am

novatrech177 27 Sep, 2016 @ 5:56pm

We need this for pyro badly.
Doever 10 Jul, 2016 @ 5:48am 
Pyro is winning the pyro v heavy war i hope this would be added
ArrowTheFerret 14 Jun, 2016 @ 5:24pm 
MINI-CRITS BURNING PLAYERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thats all I have to say.
jnjayat 7 Jun, 2016 @ 8:48am 
I have a festive shotgun. It's a killstreaked shotgun. It's a glowing shotgun. It's a strange shotgun. It's a strange specialized killstreak festive shotgun.

Not even that matches up to this.
bergamotaBR 22 Apr, 2016 @ 12:50am 
:steamhappy:
Lucky4449 10 Apr, 2016 @ 10:21am 
It would match the Backburner quite well in my opinion.
Hexeth 6 Apr, 2016 @ 2:39am 
I dont use a shotgun for Pyro, but it is perfect and I want it!!!
Munchakoopas Rex 22 Mar, 2016 @ 2:19pm 
BEST SECONDARY PYRO WEAPON EVER !!!!:steamhappy:
Aldebaran 3 Mar, 2016 @ 9:43pm 
This shotgun looks BADASS
Shirokuma 22 Jan, 2016 @ 3:47pm 
You know, if you change it a bit, it'd make for a great shotgun for most of the classes to use, call it the Snakebite, and it could cause bleeding damage.

I know it's from the back burner
But it's the panic attack and the back burner combined
amti 24 Nov, 2015 @ 11:47pm 
goood
Snare 17 Nov, 2015 @ 6:06am 
I agree, this should definetely become a thing. However, might i offer a suggestion: similar stats to a fair and balanced combo version of the back scatter with mini crits on the back, but some disadvantage such as the decreased clip size like the reseve shooter.
- Br0ozQy - 5 Nov, 2015 @ 10:10pm 
must add n make a combo with backburner
ArrowFlint22 18 Oct, 2015 @ 3:41pm 
THIS MUST BE ADDED!!! IT SHOULD BE RENAMED TO THE BACK SHOOTER.

xxxddddddd
Angryboss 1 Sep, 2015 @ 1:51am 
THIS HAS TO BE MADE, no pressure
Animal Mother 27 Aug, 2015 @ 10:26am 
very interesting design
OgglGoGs 24 Aug, 2015 @ 12:25pm 
very fitting for pyros demon theme.
Romania 18 Aug, 2015 @ 12:07pm 
amazing.
chillen 24 Jul, 2015 @ 3:01pm

ro kyu bu fan 3 Jul, 2015 @ 11:07pm
