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 21+. 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''' can also be used to dropmelt 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 dropmelt the enemy's [[Defense]], though it cannot be used alongside its golden variant, the [[Golden Pyromancer]] or other burn defense droppingmelting sources.

****Do note that only the [[Toxic Gunner]] or [[Jester]] is required to remove defense entirely, though other defense droppingmelting 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]].

*When the game was in Alpha, thisand towerfor 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 {{ColourColor|Platinum}} and {{ColourColor|Golden}} skins) did not affect enemies in their extra range, only affecting them in their initial range.
