Arsonist

Mostly QOL and parity, Airblast is commonly (in the TF2 side of things) complained about due to how spammable it is. It has been nerfed for that exact reason. Airblast now has the same cost as the Degreaser's old Airblast Cost.

However, to compensate, Airblast Pushforce has now been buffed. TC2's airblast has developed a notorious reputation recently for being completely and utterly useless when it comes to defending against anything but projectiles, so it's been given extra pushforce.

Added back an old stat. The Interceptor as of now is basically a direct upgrade given how inconsequential a damage penalty is on a Flamethrower.

Note the airblast actually costs 70 and not 50.

The mentioned shotguns all suffer from an issue where they just encourage using the shotgun as a primary, rather than a secondary to fall back on. I'm still keeping stock as it is for newcomers, but these 3 Shotguns will all

The Flare Gun is, despite how much I love it as a concept, kind of anemic and hard to get into for newcomers. One major issue they suffer from is making Arsonist, the guy who's already useless against buildings, more useless against buildings.

The two new stats should make the Flare Gun generally a lot more easier to get into for newcomers, as well as make it.. marginally better against buildings.

The Detonator is a weapon that is great. For exactly the wrong reason. Let's be real, has anyone ever used this thing for its detonation gimmick? It's always been used because of the fact that it has a blast jump that allows the Arsonist to basically do full on dive-bombs into the enemy team, or clear gaps that you are really not supposed to clear as an Arsonist.

This rework aims to make the Detonator, purpose-wise, a lot more faithful to what the original TF2 version was meant to do, which is to do a more precisely-timed input to get more damage.

Stats are now compared to the flare gun

Something to increase the mobility of the weapon, and also ensure that comboing will at least kill a light class, whilst reducing the annoyance factor of missing.
