==Description==
The '''Golden Pyromancer''' is a golden perk for the [[Pyromancer]], obtained from the [[Golden SkincrateCrate]] for {{Coins|50,000}}, if you own the [[Pyromancer]]. It is mostly regarded as a support [[Towers|tower]], though its high normal and burn damage with piercing capabilities also makes it effective against crowds of enemies. Its main gimmick is its ability to burn enemies, dealing extra damage over time and later reducing the enemy [[Defense]].
 
If an enemy is set alight, the flames will be applied to the enemy until the burn time runs out. There are two types of damage the '''Golden Pyromancer''' can apply. The first is ''Normal Damage'' which is non-burn related. This can pierce through multiple enemies, not including [[flying]] enemies, which it is unable to damage, even if it gainswithout flying detection through other sources. Its flame can initially only hit four different enemies, but with upgrades it increases to ten enemies at once. The second is ''Burn Damage'' which is applied for every second an enemy is set alight. Both damage typesmethods can damage [[Lead (Attribute)|Lead]] enemies. The '''Golden Pyromancer''' will attack any enemy, even if the enemy is on fire. However, if there are multiple enemies in its range, it will attack the first enemy that is not on fire. Unlike its normal counterpart, the '''Golden Pyromancer''' can detect hidden enemies from Level 0.
 
The '''Golden Pyromancer''', in comparison to the [[Pyromancer]], has increased normal damage, burn damage and burn time, cheaperat placementone costpoint and the Level 2 upgrade is cheaper, buthaving it is slightly more expensive to upgrade on the lastbe threeeffectively Levelsinfinite. This is considered to be an all rounder tower.

==Strategy==
*The '''Golden Pyromancer''' is considered an early to mid-game tower, because of its cost efficiency and moderate damage.
**TheIt '''Goldencan Pyromancer'''be faresused bestto againsteasily hordesdeal ofwith weakerweak enemiesenemy ashordes itlike can damage them all at once. Groups ofthe [[Mystery|MysteriesNormal]], [[Heavy|Heavies]] andor [[ShadowQuick]]s areand easilyat defeatedhigher by a Level 3 '''Golden Pyromancer'''Levels, whileit acan Leveleven 4-5take oneout canhigh takehealth onenemies hordeslike ofthe [[Normal Boss]]es orand [[Elite Abnormal Boss]]es.
***Although it is unable to outright defeat hordes of higher-health enemies like [[Giant Boss]]es, it can still do substantial damage to them.
**Even though it is considered as such, it is still highlyhas usefulcertain usage in the late game to chip down the health of bosses due to its DPS and to reduce defense.
*Be aware that if an enemy is quick enough, such as the [[Error]] or [[Circuit (Hardcore)|Circuit]], they may get out of the '''Golden Pyromancer's''' range before they are set on fire.
*The '''Golden Pyromancer''' will set every enemy in its range on fire. In what order the '''Golden Pyromancer''' will choose its target is based on its targeting.
**If there is only one detectable enemy in the '''Golden Pyromancer's''' range, then it will always target that enemy. This also occurs if all current enemies in the '''Golden Pyromancer's''' range is set on fire.
*As the '''Golden Pyromancer''' can set lots of enemies on fire at once, due to its pierce and targeting of multiple enemies, it can be very effective against hordes of enemies such as [[Breaker (Disambiguation)|Breakers]].
*The '''Golden Pyromancer''' has hidden detection from Level 0, allowing it to deal with [[Hidden (Attribute)|Hidden]] enemies quite well early on.
*The '''Golden Pyromancer''' can also be used to dropmelt an enemy's defense[[Defense]] by half when it is Level 3+.
**The '''Golden Pyromancer''' can be used alongside other defense droppingmelting towers, like the [[Freezer]], [[Electroshocker]] or [[Toxic Gunner]] to dropmelt it further, though it cannot be used alongside the regular [[Pyromancer]] and other fire defense droppingmelting sources.
***As such, with these towers, an enemy's defense[[Defense]] can be removed entirely.
****This can be useful since it can harshly decrease the defense of enemies with very high defense like the [[Vindicator]], [[BulwarkReaver]] or [[Slow King]].
***Do note that this may be impractical as it requires you to bring several support towers, even though the tower slot could be used for more important DPS towers.
*The '''Golden Pyromancer''' is less effective against those with [[Burn Immunity]], such as the [[Molten]].

==Trivia==
*The '''Golden Pyromancer''', alongsideand the [[CommanderTurret]], isare the only towertowers that hashave hidden detection at Level 0.
**WhileThe [[Accelerator]], [[Paintballer]], [[Ranger|Outlaw]] (now the [[Ranger]]), [[Jester]], [[Commander]], doesand [[Necromancer]] used to have hidden detection at Level 0, ithowever, cannothidden attackdetection anywas enemieseither untilmoved itto isanother upgradedlevel toor Levelremoved from these 2towers.
*The Level 5 upgrade's name comes from [[wp:Kagu-tsuchi|Kagu-tsuchi]], who is the god of fire in classical Japanese mythology.
**The [[Accelerator]], [[Paintballer]], [[Ranger|Outlaw]] (now the [[Ranger]]), [[Jester]], and [[Necromancer]] used to have hidden detection at Level 0, however hidden detection was either moved to another level or removed from these towers.
*The Level 5 upgrade's name comes from [[wp:Kagu-tsuchi|Kagu-tsuchi]], in classical Japanese mythology.
**The full name, Kagutsuchi's Fury, is also likely a reference to the upgraded [[w:c:callofduty:Staff of Fire|Staff of Fire]] from ''Call of Duty: Black Ops II Zombies''.
