Upsides:

+30% longer afterburn time
+10% afterburn damage
+25% larger radius
Alt fire spews flammable oil on the ground to serve as a trap for unsuspecting enemies.

Downside:

-30% direct damage
No airblast

I'd like to see either a constant, weak knockback when firing, or a suction effect (bringing ensemy back to the nozzle).in place of the airblast

Upsides:

+20% longer afterburn time
+50% afterburn damage
when enemy is on fire the fire can spread to more enemies, but the more it spreads the less ammo you have.
any over heal turns into ammo
airblast attracts enemies

Downsides:

-50% airblast cost
+15% melee damage to you
-25% direct damage

Alt click starts up the turbine engine sucking up projectiles fired in front of your weapon. Any projectile you suck up is grinded to pieces in the fan and this does a small amount of damage to you, but adds to your flamethrower ammo.

I feel valve is trying to regulate the damage and burn time of the flamethrowers to be more or less standardized but there is plenty of room for new airblasts. After all the airblast was the biggest change ever made to tf2 and it hasnt been touched since introduction.

I invented a new mechanic for this cool weapons. still no weapons Pyro is diverse, I think this mechanic is that it is fresh. I hope you will appreciate.

Left button - ignites enemy (cost of 15 per second), the right button "inflates" the fire on the enemy at a distance of 5 yards longer than the usual jet flame thrower. Damage is around 10% more, but the angle of the particles scatter more at 30%. To further distance comparable to damage normal flamethrower. Fanning cost = cost of fuel consumption normal flamethrower. Near the jet throws players on the usual distance. Can`t reflect projectiles.

(Ignites pyromaniac to standard time but deals 1 damage every 2 ticks that would be able to inflict damage on pyro) effects Axtinguisher to set fire pyro will not work.

Hold right click to spin up the turbine, release to store charge and then use left click to use the stored energy to increase range and power. However, the more charge you have, the more ammo the charged attack will use up.

Alt fire : hold the alt fire button and turbine starts up, while this is happening no fire emmits from the gun but the airblasts charges up while holding the alt fire button and when let go makes a huge airblast that can push people back for miles

-- ammo

+ fire damage

Whaaaaa?

instead of an air blast, it should launch you into the air, like the name says
for tactical pyro looking to do some sierous damge on the enamy team, or distract them so there team can complete the objective!

You definitely should be able to charge an airblast with this : with a fully charged airblast, perhaps you could do an airblast jump at the cost of more ammo?
+ 25% length of flame
- ammo depletes 10% faster
- 15% direct damage
= can charge airblasts at the cost of more ammo

+no damage dropoff (deals 100% damage at maximum range)
+25% increased damage (8/second)
-25% thinner cone of flame particles and airblast cone
-10% shorter afterburn duration

Extinguishing Teammates increases movement speed
+30% Airblast Force
+15% Airblast Range
-15% Move Speed on Wearer
-10% Damage

Thanks, I think it encourages Teamplay and also rewards the player for extinguishing teammates. I think it is still too powerfull as the negative stats can be reduced.
