Tactical Information

  • The Pyrotech is capable of spreading flames far and wide due to its ability to spray sparks in the surrounding area for a few seconds before it detonates. This makes it great for quickly dealing widespread damage to nearby enemies.
  • While being stated in game as only having medium armour penetration, the Pyrotech can reliably take down larger enemies such as Hulks and Factory Striders, as well as Chargers less reliably. This is due to the fact that the fire produced by the grenade can penetrate more armour than the grenade itself.
  • 2 Pyrotech grenades, thrown near the foot of a Factory Strider has enough damage to knock it out. However, it should be noted that this is more consistent in multiplayer, as additional sparks seem to spawn during multiplayer sessions.
  • Due to the large area of effect in the initial stage of the grenade, and the powerful anti-armour capabilities, the Pyrotech is an effective grenade for both anti-heavy and crowd control/area denial. This gives it significant utility and versatility over all fronts.
