Editing Pipe bomb (section)

=== Damage ===
{{main|text=See also: [[Specimens]].}}
Without the benefits of the Demolitions perk, the explosion from a single pipe bomb inflicts 1500 damage. No player can survive this, but only the owner of the pipe bomb needs to worry about this unless friendly fire is active. The only [[specimen]] that can survive this under all circumstances is the [[Patriarch]]. The only other specimens capable of surviving can only do so under certain circumstances. Factoring in the Fleshpound's 2x weakness to pipe bombs, they can kill a [[Fleshpound]] with five or less players on normal, two or less players on hard and suicidal, and one player on hell on earth; anything else will leave the Fleshpound alive and raging. [[Scrake]]s have similar pipe bomb survivability; a pipe bomb will dispatch them with five or less players on beginner, two or less players on normal, or with one player on hard; on suicidal and hell on earth, the Scrake cannot be killed from full health by pipe bombs at all. The [[Husk]] and [[Bloat]] can also survive a pipe bomb, but only with more than four players on suicidal for the Husk and with more than five players on hard, and more than three players on suicidal for the Bloat.

As with any explosive, any player or specimen that takes damage but survives the explosion will burn with a small fire for a few seconds.  This deals no damage, but can be useful for easily locating invisible zeds such as the Patriarch and Stalker.
