Reverse GRU?

So last night I was drunk playing TF2.

I don't know how but I was doing great as spy (topping the scoreboard, weird).

Point is I was thinking about one of my favorite sub-classes, the shotgun heavy. I have always wanted to use the shotgun and the sandvich together, something like a shotgun + sandvich + GRU would be fun.

But now that we cannot drop sandviches for ourselves it would be quite a bit less fun.

Then it came to me!

A reverse GRU, heals you but makes you go very slow also it hits extra hard!

*shrugs* seems fun and it would let the shotgun heavy even more efficient.

Eifion? Is that YOU?

OT: Wow. That'd be cool.

Makes the Sandvich have a good healing alternative.

Yeah it seems interesting, I think even more healing would be needed but it is basically a safer option than the sandvich. You can quickly switch to a shotty/minigun or even try and slug em.

Gloves of Pootis Spencer (GPS)
Level 5 Boxing Gloves
While weapon is active:
+6 health regeneration
+50% damage bonus

Can't move

(If someone is unlucky enough to get in range of you, then they're pretty unlucky I guess)

Interesting. The only problem is that the Heavy's primary is damn useful, so giving him healing items in both of the other slots doesn't take much away from his power, and it makes him even more nearly-immortal than he already is.

If it somehow couldn't be equipped with Sandvich, I might like it better.

Hm, Maybe. But I think just the HP would be fine.

Yep, but it would no longer be Spencer, it would be just Gloves of Poot Doktor.
