Overview
Pyromaniac wields flamethrowers and manipulates fuel. Great for crowd control during night waves and strongholds. One of the most expensive classes in the game, comparable to the Robot class.
Skills & Level Progression
Flamethrower (Starter)
Continuous cone AOE that applies burning over time. Very strong vs groups but consumes fuel rapidly.
Fuel Canisters (Resource)
Carryable consumable that refills flamethrower fuel. You can use them mid-combat to extend uptime.
Level Unlocks (Class Ranks)
Lv.1 — Fuel Canister refill & automatic food cooking when throwing food.
Lv.2 — Improved fuel efficiency (more fuel per canister).
Lv.3 — "Pyro Momentum": movement speed boost while nearby enemies are burning.
Recommended Equipment
| Item | Why |
|---|---|
| Flamethrower (Starter) | Primary AOE weapon, keeps consistent burn on grouped enemies. |
| Fuel Canisters | Extends combat uptime — carry multiple for prolonged fights. |
| Oil Drill (Support Tool) | Provides nearly unlimited fuel resources to keep your flamethrower supplied. |
| Food with Healing Effect | Auto-cook synergy: quick field heals while keeping hands free. |
Tip: Always keep at least 1 spare canister in your inventory when entering night waves or dungeons.
Gameplay Tips & Strategy
- Fuel management: Only spray when it chips enemy groups — avoid wasting fuel on single isolated enemies.
- Choke control: Position yourself at choke points with teammates (Brawler / Guardian Knight) in front to maximize AOE value.
- Auto-cook: Use thrown raw food to instantly get cooked food in the field — saves time between nights.
- Mobility: Use Level 3 speed bonus by ensuring some enemies are burning near you.
- Fallback plan: When low on fuel, switch to secondary weapon or kite until you can refill.
- Resource priority: Always prioritize collecting fuel resources to keep your flamethrower operational.
Counters & Who Counters Pyromaniac
What to watch out for and who counters you in matches:
- Enemies with high mobility that avoid the cone will reduce your effectiveness.
- Stuns and interrupts prevent continuous fire — coordinate with teammates to protect you.
- Single-target bosses with heavy armor are less affected by burning damage; bring an Assassin or Cyborg for single-target push.
- Be cautious of forest fires: The flamethrower may ignite the forest environment, potentially causing unintended consequences.
