    Flares that hit a burning player at mid-to-long range will crit

    Lokiamis, this is not a backburner nerf assuming they are talking about the listed damage increase on the item.

    It now does 15% more than the 10% increased flamethrower, which is marginally more than its old 20% more than the unmodified flamethrower.

    Unless they are being morons.

    Will the flaregun still mini-crit enemies on fire at close range? I'd assume that's the case, but I'm not sure.

    Why do I even care? It's not like I ever play pyro.

    Very nice Flare Gun buff. The rest is okay. I think whoever writes the changelogs on the TF2 team is retarded at math so they probably mean 90% damage for the Flamethrower and 105% for the Backburner.

    The Homewrecker knocking off saps is quite possibly the thing that solidified me pay pyro above any other class. I can do a whole hell of a lot now.

    I dunno about anyone else, but I'm excited for the Backburner buff.

    Yes, buff. By math, if correct, it should be doing more damage than the pre-nerfed flamethrower.

    Why use the regular axe? I wouldn't mind if hte Fireaxe could be a thrown weapon. In fact, I'd love it. Puff-toss-crit.

    Yeah, it should be. Remember the Backburner's damage boost uses the normal Flamethrower as a baseline.

    Stealing the math from the *shudder* Steam forums...

    Originally, both did 100 damage.

    The nerf put the FT at 80 damage (-20%) and the BB at 96. (+20% of the FT's damage.)

    Today's buff puts the FT at 88 damage (+10% from the nerfed version) and 101 damage for the BB (+15% over the FT).
