How to unlock the Firing it Up! achievement in Warhammer: Vermintide 2 - Definitive Guide
Warpfire Throwers are distinguishable by their large backpacks which while similar to those of Ratling Gunners, have a large green illuminated section. As with all special enemies, they can also be heard muttering their unique audio queues, so keep an ear out for them.
I'd highly recommend attempting this on easier difficulties where both ranged and CQC weaponry have a shorter time-to-kill, with weapons such as the Empire Soldier's Handgun, Dwarf/Elf/Witch Hunter's Bows & Crossbow's, and the Witch Hunter's Repeater Pistol & 'Locked & Loaded' special ability being the most ideal ranged weapons to deal with Warpfire Throwers, as well as any special enemy.
Abilities which stun and knock-back targets, including the block-push ability, Valiant Charge (Foot Knight) and Holy Fervour (Zealot) can also stop the target before it is allowed to open up on you and your allies.
Staying vigilant for the enemy type you're looking for is key. Good Luck!
