The Scorch Shot is a secondary weapon for the Pyro. It is a Flare Gun with a gray barrel with an orange muzzle. It shoots a flare that bounces off enemies as well as allies and explodes, igniting all enemies caught in the explosion and knocking back the player hit with the flare. The knock back from the explosion can also be used to flare jump in a manner similar to rocket or sticky jumping.

The Scorch Shot was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

Taunting with the Scorch Shot will cause the Pyro to point forward with the gun, and then shoot a flare that causes damage to those in range. The taunt consumes ammo.
