^{For the perk in Killing Floor, see Demolitions.}

They were added to the game with the Incinerate N' Detonate update, during Early Access.

XP Objectives

Dealing damage with Demolitionist Weapons
Killing Fleshpounds with Demolitionist weapons

You do not have to be currently playing as a Demolitionist to level it up, as long as you use Demolitionist weapons it will count.

XP is not awarded until an enemy dies. No matter how much you contributed, as long as you hit it once you will get the full experience value. If you hit an enemy with weapons from multiple different perks, the XP will be divided equally among them.
