#25 Weapon Balance Discussion in TF2 General Discussion

Yeah. You want a combat engi? Here, have 180 (or so) health. You don't have to care about your buildings since they take less work to build, but you still help. Play on the flank.

Every engi main I've shown this to has emphatically said "yes please".

Okay, I understand now. Though with this change, it will change the play styles of all engineers and it will render the wrangler useless as a combat engineer, which is very much part of the meta of an engineer in highlander.

Frost_bite Jag: Change to +15% swing speed.

This lets you upgrade your buildings faster.

Okay, I don't think I explained the jag well enough. As of right now, the jag's stats says it has a 30%+ faster construction rate. However, when hitting a building, the construction rate of the building increases only by 15.79% and not the 30% that was intended for the jag to do.

Frost_BiteGunslinger: Change to: No random Critical Hits. Teleporters cost 100 metal to build. Dispensers and Teleporters start at Level 2. +65 max health. Can't build sentries.

So, Valve is going to remove mini-sentries from the game?

Frost_bite Jag: Change to +15% swing speed.

Not sure if you did not read my previous post about the jag, but the construction rate of the jag is +15.79% rounded to +16%. If you want Valve to change the jag from +30% construction rate to +16% (15.79% rounded), the construction rate of a sentry gun will go from 0.75 seconds to 0.375 seconds. This is a HUGE downgrade if you want to use the jag.

Frost_BitePomson: Now bison reskin.
Wrangler: Split into two weapons. One shields and disables your gun. The other doubles the fire rate and lets you aim it.
Short circuit: revert to pre-buff.

Agreed.

According to multiple plat Engineers, Southern Hospitality is the best Wrench. I don't really understand it myself, because I think the Jag's extra build speed eclipses everything else.

It is because the jag is broken. To build a sentry gun, it takes about 0.75 seconds.
A 1.5 second difference is 32%
0.75 seconds is 16%, 0.75 multiplied by 2 = 1.5
16% times 2 = 32%
If it were a 1.5 second difference, it would be 32% construction rate, but it is not.

Personally, I run the southern hospitality, but I may consider running the jag if Valve fixes the weapon.
