The Pyro Grenade is a Light, Medium and Heavy class thrown gadget that sets an area on fire to deal damage over time.

Effects

The Pyro Grenade can be deployed by throwing it. The moment it impacts on a surface or contestant, it instantly spreads fire to all surfaces in a spherical area, even through walls. Any contestants that come into contact with the fire take contact damage over time and will also be set on fire for a few seconds to take additional damage.

The fire will quickly spread to nearby foliage, and if there is goo nearby, it instantly engulfs the goo in flames and destroys it after a few seconds.

Usage

The Pyro Grenade can be selected as one of three gadgets of any Light, Medium or Heavy build loadout.

Holding the primary trigger will prepare a high-velocity overhand throw. Holding the secondary trigger will prepare a low-velocity underhand throw. While preparing a throw, the gadget's trajectory is indicated up to the point where it triggers on impact. Releasing the trigger will execute the throw, whereas swapping to a different item will cancel it.
