Detonate on a MM is basicly having a mini nuke. Send in a pet (grant invis), hit the button.. BOOM. They never saw that one comming

And the bonus is you don't even have to slot the power for accuracy or damage because it doesn't help.

Someone in-game was claiming that the behavior of Detonate varies by pet type. For bots, it's scaled by pet, so battle drones do less damage than assault bot, but for ninjas it's the same regardless because the pets carefully set the bomb down, making it its own separate thing.
