Let's have a slow paced and civilized conversation about the Medigun and GL. - Page 2

Rescue Ranger:
On hit: Allows you to track enemies by illuminating them to you for 5 seconds
+25% damage done
-4 shots loaded

Loose Cannon:
Bombs do not bounce, they stay where they land
No reload necessary
+25% damage
-3 shots loaded

vaccinator sounds like it's going to suck - literally
it might be a weapon that neutralizes projectiles (thought) - once it's full, it will blast out something.

awe... money

guncrashdx · 12-19-2012, 07:59 PM

Really curious what the stats will be

DrunkenBombers · 12-19-2012, 08:05 PM

Jeez, I'm shocked it wasn't a sword or shield. Quite amazed, actually.

Now let's see just how useless it's going to be.

I'm so glad I've saved up tons of loose Medic drops, so I can craft that medigun the day it comes out!

Well, here goes for the rescue ranger!

Upsides: Whenever your sentry is seriously wounded (the bar to the left of it gets red) and/or if your sentry was destroyed in the last 10 seconds you do an extra 50% damage or you deal all crits for 5 seconds. I.E: First cause for first effect or second cause for second effect.

Downsides: May god help me.

Vaccinator: Removes status effects in half the time of normal, can target 2 (or more, since generally vaccines are given to many people) patients simultaneously. Ubercharge build rate and ubercharge length decreases by 10% and 1 second per patient. I.E: If healing 4 players and using stock über effect, you only have 4 seconds of charge time and decreased ubercharge build rate by 40%.

Ubercharge effect: I have no idea!

Davidftw · 12-19-2012, 08:11 PM

I think you might be on to something with the new Gl... Shoots cannonballs (has a one shot clip) and the roll for a set amount of time then explode with a larger radius then normal gl pipes.

Lampshade · 12-19-2012, 08:13 PM

Something I've thought of: Cannonballs aren't typically know to "explode". They usually are shot to bust holes in ships from the weight of the cannonballs. So is Valve trolling us by giving us a non-exploding GL?

Demoman now has a Sandman. That he uses with his sword and shield.

Not sure which you are talking about.

I would actually kill myself. I would record me killing myself. And upload it to SPUF.

On Ubercharge, activates Vacuume, all projectiles, fire & liquids are removed from in front of the Medic.

Mister L · 12-19-2012, 08:28 PM

The Vaccinator
Ubercharge removes liquids and reduces incoming damage taken by 80%
+25% faster charge rate
Overheal bonus does not decay
-20% heal rate

The Loose Cannon
Hold Primary fire to load up to 3 cannonballs
Release primary fire to unleash the spam!
+150% damage bonus vs. buildings
+70% faster firing speed
No primary ammo from dispensers
30% slower reload speed
Overloading the chamber will cause a misfire
-25% damage penalty vs. players

The Rescue Ranger
On Hit: Heals all buildings by damage done
+40% more accurate
Deals crits while your sentry is being sapped
No random critical hits
-20% damage penalty
Healing done by Wrenches reduced by 35%

My take on stats for these weapons.

Looks pretty cool. Medigun seems a bit OP, though.
