What's Pyro's true DPS with his flamethrower?

[Spiffyo™]

This does sound dumb, but in lieu with Jungle Inferno I wonder if that since the flamethrower is more consistent, is it's damage increased, or is it still at around 150 dps?

Still around 150, probably 153-156 max

people just think it got buffed cause it's more consistent with damage now

It was fixed is all, but it's just something I wondered due to how easy it is to kill as pyro now

I'm fairly certain it's just placebo, but if it isn't, a small DPS boost for Pyro isn't the end of the world since everyone else still outdamages (and outranges) him.

According to TF2 Wiki at point-blank DPS is 173,3, subject to fall-off (50% damage reduction at maximum range).

I just hear that people say that pyro's damage is weak when compared to other classes like heavy who has 540 dps, however I do think that consistency does make pyro stronger, and is stronger against scout, soldier, and demo following the rework to him

I don't know the numbers, but there are a few videos floating around showing how ridiculous the damage is now.
