they are like 1.10 skill value...the same as a regular nail gun and flames are only 1.00. i don't think they are as hard to kill with like flames and nail guns. also, do pyro rocket kills count as flames or rocket kills? just bored...

They are tough to kill with. It requires a lot of skill to shoot one and det it in someone's face. I hardly ever use them because of this. I'd rather use the GL Grenade because it self dets.

i know they aren't easy to kill with unless you are camping, but is it as hard to kill with pipebombs as it is to kill with a normal nail gun or even flames

The pyro's incendiary cannon kill will count as an incendiary cannon kill ONLY if it is the blast from the actual hit that gets them. If it hits and then they burn for a while, it counts as flames. I also think that the real reason it is hard to blow up a pipe in somone's face is because it has this weird delay where you can't blow it up right after you shoot it. Here's a few tips:

TIP: Try backing up as you shoot.

TIP: When you shoot, don't lay down 6 pipes and then detonate them. Shoot one, and click the detonate button until it blows up. Or, if they moved to a new spot, shoot again.

TIP: If you miss, detonate the pipe or you might step on it as you detonate the next one.

TIP: If you are being pursued, shoot a pipe in front of you, or at the wall as you round a corner. Run past it, and detonate it once you are clear. If you are lucky, they will be right on top of it as you detonate it.

And if you use the wall bounce method jump as you explode it so any effects throw you further ahead and the enemy either dead and/or backwards. Giving yourself valuable time to recoup or...
Just be careful your health may not take it.

golden spy, there is no incendiary cannon weapon in the stats. only rocket kills (which are the soldier rockets) and flame kills. anyhow my point with that was that it kind of sucks if pyro rocket kills count the same as soldier rocket kills since the pyro rockets are a ton weaker
