__TOC__
==Description==
The '''Pyromancer''' is an intermediate [[Towers|tower]] that costs {{Coins|1,250}} to buy from the store. It is capable of dealing burn damage to enemies, damaging them over time even when not directly targeted. At higher levels, it can also melt defense by up to 50% of the listed value. For example, an enemy with 50% defense will have its defense decreased to 25%.

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 '''Pyromancer''' can apply. The first is ''Normal Damage'' which is applied every 0.258 when the enemy is colliding with the '''Pyromancer's''' flame. This flame can initially only hit one enemy, though it upgrades it increases to five. This can pierce through multiple enemies. The second is ''Burn Damage'' which is applied for every second an enemy is set alight. Both damage types can damage [[Lead (Attribute)|Lead]] enemies. The '''Pyromancer''' can also detect [[Hidden (Attribute)|Hidden]] enemies at Level 1+. The '''Pyromancer''' will attack any enemy, even if the enemy is on fire, as long as it can detect it, though it will prioritize enemies that are not on fire.

The '''Pyromancer''' is best combined with other towers since it deals little damage by itself but can deal area of effect. Some enemies are immune to burn, like the [[Molten]]. This does not mean the '''Pyromancer''' cannot attack them; it only means that it cannot light them on fire.

==Strategy==
*The '''Pyromancer''' is considered an all-round tower, due to it being useful at every point of the match.
**It can be used to easily deal with weak enemy hordes like the [[Normal]], [[Heavy]] or [[Quick]] and at higher Levels, it can even take out high health enemies like the [[Normal Boss]] and [[Elite Abnormal]].
*The '''Pyromancer''' will set every enemy in its range on fire. In what order the '''Pyromancer''' will choose its target is based on its targeting.
**If there is only one detectable enemy in the '''Pyromancer's''' range, then it will always target that enemy. This also occurs if all current enemies in the '''Pyromancer's''' range is set on fire.
*The '''Pyromancer''' can also be used to melt an enemy's [[Defense]] by half.
**The '''Pyromancer''' can be used alongside the [[Freezer]]/[[Frost Blaster]], the [[Electroshocker]] and the [[Toxic Gunner]]/[[Jester]] to further melt the enemy's [[Defense]], though it cannot be used alongside its golden variant, the [[Golden Pyromancer]] or other burn defense melting sources.
***As such, with these towers, an enemy's [[Defense]] can be removed entirely.
****Do note that only the [[Toxic Gunner]] or [[Jester]] is required to remove defense entirely, though other defense melting towers can be used to speed up the process.
****This can be useful since it can harshly decrease high [[Defense]] enemies like the [[Vindicator (Legacy)|Vindicator]], [[Reaver]], or [[Slow King]].
*The '''Pyromancer''' is less effective against those with [[Burn Immunity]], such as the [[Molten]].
**However, the '''Pyromancer''' can still deal non-burn damage to them.
*Due to the '''Pyromancer's''' low range, the [[DJ Booth]] is recommended to increase this tower's range.
*The '''Pyromancer''' is best placed near the beginning of the path. This lets it kill weaker enemies and decrease the defense of enemies before they reach your other towers.
*The '''Pyromancer''' will not be able to set enemies on fire when placed on high grounds, like those on [[The Heights]].
*Since the '''Pyromancer's''' burn damage does not stack if you have multiple '''Pyromancers''', you should generally only place down one '''Pyromancer''' instead of multiple.
**The '''Pyromancer's''' burn damage also does not stack with burn damage dealt by other towers, like the [[Archer]]'s flame arrows.
**You can also spread out multiple '''Pyromancer's''' along the path; this will make it so that enemies remain set alight continuously as they walk towards the exit.

==Trivia==
*When the game was in Alpha, and for a while after BETA release, the '''Pyromancer's''' upgrade stats were not displayed on its upgrade description. It was simply referred to as "''sans flamey gun''".
*Prior to the [[Overhaul v1.0|Overhaul Update]], there was a bug where any [[Range Buff]] applied to the '''Pyromancer''' (including {{Color|Platinum}} and {{Color|Golden}} skins) did not affect enemies in their extra range, only affecting them in their initial range.
*The '''Pyromancer''' was inspired by the [https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Pyro Pyro] from ''Team Fortress 2''.
**The '''Pyromancer''' was originally based on the [[w:c:roblox-tower-battles:Flamethrower|Flamethrower]] from ''Tower Battles''.
*Prior to the [[Overhaul v1.0|Overhaul Update]], this tower used to slow down enemies.
**After the [[Overhaul v1.0|Overhaul Update]], the '''Pyromancer''' sped up enemies that were on fire, though this has been removed.
*In the [[Frost Invasion Event]], the '''Pyromancer''' dealt twice as much damage to enemies that spawned there.
*The '''Pyromancer''' used to appear alongside the [[Scout]], [[Commander]], [[Sniper]] and [[Minigunner]] on the "Triumph" screen before the [[v1.8.0|Community Maps Update]].
*The '''Pyromancer''' has one of the oldest firing sounds in the game, having kept it since 2020.
*Despite having the "-mancer" suffix, the '''Pyromancer''' is not a mage.
*The '''Pyromancer''' in the game has been shown and said to be a great cook multiple times.
