Haxwehttam's Guide for Heavys

Unread post by Haxwehttam »

you have a big gun
they dont


HEAVY WEAPONS GUY
aka Heavy

Weapons

Minigun
500/sec - 540/sec crit 1080/sec

Unlock Natascha 320/sec - 720/sec crit 720/sec
slows down enemies by 25 percent

note miniguns have a tendancy to get weaker the farther away you are from the opponent, this is due to that the bullets go in a cone extending out from the minigun, the damage is spread across that cone to a point where its only 3 damage on a person far away


Shotgun 60-90 crit 180

Sandvich heals 100Percent right click throws sandvich to other players

Dolokohs Bar heals 60 health and if full health then you get an extra 50 health for 30 seconds

Fists 65 normally crit 195
THEY ARE MADE OF STEEl

KGB 65 crit 195 20% slower and 5 seconds of kritz for every killing blow (does not stack)




vs Scoots
natascha is byfar the best for this
well the scoot is your opposite
just aim at them and shoot (nothing u can do to evade anyway) also try to look up once in a while

also fists shotguns andkgb could kill a scoot

vs Soldiers
shoot at them while walking forward and slight straffe
try to get them around corners and while theyr not looking cause if they have diret hit you have a much better chance of loosing

vs pyros
shoot at them while they get closer
if they are far away dont both unless theyr kinda close (or you have a shotty)
if u get set onf ire just eat something or yell for a medic, if ur team has one then mostlikly they would have already been following you or someone else whos close

vs demos
dont get in theyr sticky fields
recommended shotty or just to shoot at them
they die quickly if theyr close enough

vs demoknights
killthem instantly as they charge at you
also watch your back they like to lob off your head when ur not looking

vs engis and sentrys
engis are easy
lvl1 sentrys easy
lvl2 kinda easy, easily killed when you jump around a corner
lvl3 uber or other help required
no real trick just shoot but dont try a lvl 3 on your own


vs other heavys
point and shoot qwhile getting closer to them
if your natascha you will loose unless aided by a medic
whoever starts shooting first will usually win

vs medics
aim for them first if u can, makes the heavy hes healing easier to kill

vs snipers
theres no way to watch out for them
if you are close enough to damage them go ahead

vs spies
if you see any indication of them SHOOT DIRECTLY AT THEM
it doesnt matter if there is a heavy in your face shoot the spy if you dont ull die regardless of whos winning

Explination for ease
the heavy is a strong class with the most health, slowest speed, biggest target, and can help on defence or offence easily
the only problem is alone your chances are survival are cut slim
pyros will ambushyou and before you can take out a minigun your already half way dead
a demoman can lay 3 stickys before you notice him and shoot in his general direction
a sniper can line up his shot easily on your head

if possible follow your team or have them follow you
you cant hold a point alone like a soldier can

your the biggest target and the greatest game to hunt, go in packs to avoid death

even a scout can kill you if your not prepared (even if the chance of that is slim unless bonked)


on a better note you can kill any class quickly if they get too close


tip: jump around corners while revving up to suprise the enemy AND be ready to fire


any criticisms, mistakes, comments or other then post them
if its an update it will come shortly
now go out and Mow Down
