Explosive barrel

The Explosive Barrel was released within The Sacrifice DLC and has an effect that is a combination of the Gas Can and the Propane Tank. However it is almost completely stationary making it tedious to strategize with. Usually found in pairs, and when shot, one barrel will explode and spread a large radius of fire. The other barrel will be blasted a few feet away making the fire spread even further out.

Survivor Tactics

 * The barrels are a mix of a propane tank and a gas can, so you should definitely only shoot it from a good distance.
 * The barrels are great to stop hordes and are good against tanks as they damage them with the explosion and set them on fire

Infected Tactics

 * Try to incapacitate Survivors near the Barrels, as they are likely to hit them while trying to kill you and the fire and explosion will deal some good extra damage to the Survivor.
 * If a Survivor is incapacitated next to a Explosive Barrel do your team a favor and stand next to it. Survivor players are very likely to shoot you and make the Barrel explode. Doing some good damage to incapacitate survivors next to it
