A very useful upside of the Dalokohs bar is that it brings the resistance thresholds of the Brass Beast and Natascha up to 175 health instead of 150. While it may not sound that consequential, having that much more health and resistance that kicks in even earlier can make you unbelievably tanky when using these items together.

If Valve figures out how to fix the GRU and Dalokohs bar switch overheal exploit through its messy spaghetti code, then they should definitely bring back the overheal feature that the Dalokohs bar used to have as the only reason why it was removed was because this switch exploit used to be way more broken during Jungle Inferno where it would give the Heavy almost infinite health, and Valve only put an end to the infinite health exploit by nerfing the Dalokohs bar so it couldn't overheal anymore making the infinite health exploit impossible, but Valve technically never really fixed the bug.

Maybe, or they could just give it a 4 second speed boost after eating it, or faster eating animation, or something else, because the Dalokohsbar still sucked with or without the overheal. As Fish said, and sadly from a perspective, this exploit is probably the only thing that makes this weapon good over the banana.

The overheal was only removed because of a bug and if they manage to fix it, then I feel like they should bring it back assuming the GRU and Dalokohs bar exploit doesn't work anymore.

The Gru+bar bug also logically makes sense since in context the Heavy is running and pushing himself harder than usual, tiring him out (the hp drain), but the sugar rush of the chocolate bar replenishes his spent stamina in a short, small burst.

I’m a heavy main (yes I know) and I usually run the dalokohs bar. That extra 50 health really improves heavy’s survivability. In practice it feels like a huge buff. Plus, I don’t need to max up my health all the time. Sometimes just a quick 100 health boost is enough to get back in a fight and win it.

In the world of the unknown that is 90% of most of TF2 gameplay, I prefer relying on the chocolate more than expect a friendly Medic to rely on. Moreso than anywhere else, the DPS on Heavy is super important when you can't guarantee coordinated pushes or defenses and the chocolate helps you sustain that consistently. I'd never run this in comp or experienced gameplay, but the fact that I still use this thing at all is more than most of Heavy's arsenal will ever see.
@massgunner4152
11 ай бұрын
The problem is that you need to wait a long ass time to heal yourself since the thing got nerfed with a cooldown after eating it and you still have the unnecesary long animation of heavy eating the thing.
For the GRU exploit, you can quickly swap back and forth to the GRU to quickly lower your health pool as swapping to the GRU instantly lowers your HP by 30. That means if you need to fully heal but don't need to run too far away to heal, then you just spam swap to the GRU and then eat the chocolate to get the exploit. This makes it more viable for defense.
@cheese3764

Exploit? It's game mechanic!
I still think Dalokoh's as a weapon could be better overall, but honestly, the main problem it has is that Second Banana is just too good. Even nerfing the banana's recharge time to what it's listed as (50%, which would be 15 seconds, 10 seconds is 66% faster) helps Dalokoh's out quite a bit. That being said, even despite using both weapons quite often, I genuinely was not aware of the synergy chocolate bar and GRU had, that's actually pretty cool. If Valve ever get along to weapon rebalances sometime down the road, hopefully they don't go after that lol.

Despite the fact that sandwich heals up more health for your teammates, i think it's important to mention that both Dalokosh and Banana are way better for extinguishing people, basically you can save a teammate from dying to afterburn 3 times more often than with normal sandwich, and banana is usually still preferred to ve eaten by most heavies instead of veing given to some random burning teammate, while Dalokosh is so inefficient at actually healing the heavy that it's not really hurting him if he give it away, making it best item for fighting against multiple pyros.

Sure the 100 hp regeneration is under looked, but it's again, nothing impressive. Now the one upside you mentioned, that being the mind game aspect of this "weapon".

In my opinion, in casual the ranking of lunchbox items is as follows 1. Banana 2. Dalokohs 3. Sandvich 4. Steak The banana is often seen as the solo heavy's lunchbox item, but I would argue in any situation barring comp or being with a dedicated medic in a party, the banana is the best choice for healing both yourself and your teammates. You can have THREE small health packs out and to three teammates in the same time you will have a single sandvich. same goes for dalokohs. The dalokohs also allows you to survive three pipes from a demoman, paired with the fists of steel and you make one of the easiest classes to catch off guard and kill one of the hardest because of the higher health and damage reduction, and this is without a medic. Dalokohs exceeds when your team has no medic, in fact that's really the only time it's good. For comp the ranking is a bit more like 1. Sandvich 2. Banana 3. Steak (Speed boost) 4. Dalokohs

I want him to have an Ice-Cream Sandvich, which doesn’t heal much, slows you down, and has a lengthy cooldown, but makes you immune to crits and have a great damage resistance. The slowdown ailment lasts longer than the immunity, and because it slows down the heavy, it makes him a greater target and makes it harder to use away from the front lines and in retreating. As for healing, he doesn’t get that much, in exchange for being basically immortal with a medic.

the dalokohs bar is completely underated and everyone i know besides me hates me for using it, im so glad to know that other people agree
This item is surprisingly very synergistic with a lot of aspects of the game. Namely any effects that cause healing is suddenly way more appealing, as the biggest source of healing in the game (Medic) is made strong due to the fact that players don’t need to actively take damage to utilize his capability, as abusing Overheal to its maximum potential is paramount to his role on the team. More base HP opens more opportunities to utilize health sources that can’t overheal but usually are harder to time, due to having to be missing Health in the first place. Things like Mad Milk, Concheror, Health kits, Dispensers.. heck, Medic still greatly benefits from it, with the Crusader’s Crossbow, and the Amputator. Max HP is a statistic that is handed out incredibly loosely, with most classes having to trade something extremely valuable to gain even a small sliver. This was the reason why the old Pocket Pistol was broken, as Scout basically had 15 Health for the low price of just a slightly worse pistol. Heavy gives up the sheer strength of his healing item to gain max health, and even then, only temporarily. The only case remaining in the game that might defy this logic is the battalions backup, with how strong its effect is coupled with 220 Health that lets him walk away from fights with 1 HP way more often. The Kunai is another unique case, but it’s more reasonable given the innate risk. It’s also worth noting that the chocolate synergizes with the Vaccinator. More base hp to get Uber off of, and keep their higher heal rate, less overheal doesn’t really matter too much since a Vac medic doesn’t usually fully overheal anyone anyways. It means you’re even more of a nightmare to counter with single damage types.
This has always been my favorite food item for heavy even though i dont think its very powerful, it just helps with that extra health for being even tankier

I always use the Dalokohs because I don't expect to have a Medic with me. That said, other players preferring you to have a sandvich instead is just because they prefer a bigger heal for *themselves*. If you can spread heals among multiple people I'd say you have a decent additional source of healing that is more consistent and you can leave the healthpacks so you can run on two cooldowns independent from each other. The only direct downside compared to the sandvich is that if you have a Medic pocketing you it will be difficult to keep him healed at crucial times.

I’ve been stanning the chocolate for years. Now, in my video I paired it with the fists of steel, but I regularly use it with the Gru too. I wasn’t aware of the health trick you mentioned though! The Dalohkohs also is a great Boone for Tomislav users. In a heavy VS heavy battle the Tommy’s lower short range DPS is mitigated by having higher HP than the other heavy. Also as you mentioned, it breaks many damage thresholds (even more with the fists of steel) and is great for quick fix medics (as a former quick fix medic main myself, I appreciate that). It also in general helps your medic gain Uber charge, as you don’t hit over heal for 50 extra HP.
I think this video might be my favorite of yours so far, and I've been watching your stuff for a while. Good work 👍
This was a great and educational video focused on my favorite secondary for Heavy. As a Heavy main myself, the GRU combod with the chocolate bar was something I was unaware of (I primarily use the KGOB), and can see myself utilizing it in the future. Thanks for making this video!
Oh hey, who's that sexy scout at 12:46 :D Something else to note about the Dalokoh's with the Fists of Steel is that it effectively counteracts the overheal penalty of the Fists of Steel, allowing you to get over 600 effective health with a medic on you while tanking damage with the fists!

Also there is one downside to the Dalokohs Bar that you didn't mention. And that's that using it too much can result in you randomly dying from type 2 diabetes.
I like all the lunch box items, the sandwich is if I feel like helping medics, bananas if I’m selfish, the chocolate if I want to be tankier and the steak if I want to be a boxer heavy for fun
I’ve been running the church of chocolate for years now, just the fact that demos need to hit 4 pipes instead of 3 to kill me makes all the difference. Hope to see more people use it, or just more people playing heavy for that matter.

there's sth like tactical choc, and it's absurdly healthy for you. you can actually survive on it and it lasts way longer than most foods. yes, it's even more time durable than canned food.
thank you for this, i honestly spent like a few days last week trying to figure this weapon out in game and failing miserably, but this just makes much more sence then whatever i was trying to do xD
I’m glad that this topic is being brought to light, the dolakoh’s bar has always been a gem in rough. So glad about awareness being spread
The Dalohkos and Steak always needed a faster eating taunt than the Sandvich and Banana; the GRU bug shouldn't account for that.

@@catke590 Y'know what? Provided the eating part is faster, a longer recharge time would actually be fair enough. The main problem with the Dalohkos is that you take forever to eat it just to apply a buff that ultimately lasts less than 30 seconds, so half the time that you're alive you're out-of-battle taking your sweet time eating, which makes for an extremely clunky gameplay loop at best.
I've always been a huge fan of both HP boosting items, the chocolate bar and the battalion's backup. The number of times the extra 50 (or 20) max HP has saved my ass is kind of nutty. Plus, they both have good utility besides! The chocolate is great for topping off HP as you said, and I feel that the buff from the backup is criminally undervalued, even outside of niche situations where it's completely busted (pushing sentries with no medic, giving the middle finger to an enemy kritz medic, etc.).

My first strange quality weapon was the dalokoh's bar, and i bought that willingly. I also wanted this video to come out so the price goes up. We will se how it works out
I love how Fishstick will give a sincere attempt on a bad weapon and will either find its secret/niche OP or totally unviable. Its really cool to see someone really get into the game like how I do with Pokemon
God I miss the dalokohs creators server. "Play awesomely and be awesome... Yeah..."
The candy bar do be my favorite "2fort pub Im about to stomp into the dirt with the brass beast and boxing gloves" secondary
I must say that I have always been quite attached of this secondary, having been the first "consumable food" that I obtained and that in the past I used actively, therefore seeing new methods or even simply seeing how to use it better; it fills me with joy, thanks Fish.
The chocolate bar is my favorite lunchbox item! The HP boost helps out a lot against the explosive classes!
There's also a neat little bit of use when paired with the brass beast, which makes it even stronger still on defensive plays
Honestly cool to see a video on this. Dalokhos Bar has always been my go to pick for a heavy food item whenever I choose one. Still prefer the shotguns tho in personal preference but that Dalokhos bar comes in clutch a lot quicker than you think.
I like the synergy between the GRU and the bar, it's like you're running off the downside of the chocolate
If you eat the Bar while using the Brass Beast on defense, you become the ultimate sentry heavy. On that note, the resistances of the Brass Beast triggers on health thresholds, right? Do they trigger on the modified health given by the Bar or do they work always on the normal health?
Seeing you defend this was quite the surprise. A welcome one though.

I mainly use Dhalokos bar along with Brass Beast, taking flank routes that has med packs nearby or dispensers, using them to mainly hear. The Dhalokos bar is just for the extra 50 health and some extra healing when needed, or just healing faster at a dispenser.

In defense of the Dalokohs bar... _it's tasty._
2:45 Throwing a hard metal object with sharp angles towards the direction of the only healer isn’t the brightest idea
I still remember when the gru and dalokhas bar were broken after the jungle inferno update 200000+ hp was ridiculous lol
Great video. I've always been a fan of the "in defence of" videos. I think it could be worth making the Dalokahs Bar a clear best choice for playing with a medic by letting the extra health stack with overheal and making it a medium health pack drop. Maybe increasing the cooldown as a counterbalance
I need more of these "this weapon thats underwhelming is actually very good and heres how" videos
The Dalokohs Bar was my first lunchbox item. I got it from an item drop and it showed me that the Sandvich wasn't the only edible item in TF2. It will always have a special place in my heart for that.
You forgot to mention it stacks with Brass Beast and Natascha's 20% extra damage resistance while at half health. Basically you get the bonus at 175 health instead of the 150.
I tend to use the Dalokohs Bar pretty frequently actually whenever I play as Heavy. The fast recharge is pretty busted.
This is my favourite health item for heavy, thank you for making this!

Unrelated to your comment, but I adore your profile photo!
not to mention, the extra health that the dalokohs gives paired with the fists of steel allows you to survive a fully charged headshot from all the sniper rifles (except the machina) if at full health
In defence of the meat: Medieval mode... Yes that's pretty much it lol
It's probably worth mentioning as well that it pairs well with the Brass Beast and Natasha if you're trying to be tanky, given it means you're damage resistance will trigger sooner, at 175hp rather than 150hp.
Another important thing is that with larger healthpool you get more health from healthpacks, that extra 25 health is just nice to have.
Fsoas: Boy, I sure do love the GRU + Chocolate bar combo Also Fsoas removing the combo on the rebalance server: Fuck you, I do what I want
In my experience, the chocolate has a lot of sinergy with the Natascha since then dalokohs makes it so that the 20% resistance kicks in sooner! I found out that you can survive 4 direct pipes or 2 quickscopes + 1 bodyshot if revved up
for some reason I really like the chocolate texture when used as a background also video quiet

I’m glad you made this an In Defense video. Is it the meta option? No. Does it deserve to be the meta option? Also no. But it is a perfectly fine option that can very much accentuate specific items like the Brass Beast, Natascha, and the Fists of Steel. The first two benefit enormously from the Dalokah’s Bar as it increases the threshold with which the damage resistance activates, and the last option makes you ludicrously tanky and laugh off all but the highest charged of sniper headshots. Its benefit of amplifying the effect of health kits is also very sneakily powerful, and of course, it makes you incredibly tanky once you get that full 350. This is something that loner Heavies can very much use to their advantage to compensate for the Dalokah’s Bar’s lesser burst healing. Those small and medium health packs can now much more easily compensate to bring your health back up to max. I never knew about its application on the GRU, that is insanely useful to know about now. It’d demand a very different approach to your rollouts though, so I wouldn’t be surprised if others thought you were a bit crazy for this one. It might take time for the community to accept this being very useful and helpful.
I've been using the Dalokohs for a few years if i want to play a more supportive heavy role. Its health benefit also pairs nicely with the Brass Beast and Natascha thanks to their damage resistances at low health, effectively giving Heavy even MORE health to absorb damage with. Which also pairs particularly well with the QuickFix. I can only imagine how hellish the Natascha-Dalokohs-GRU-Quick Fix combination would be to fight.
Suggested Dalokohs bar fix: turn the eating animation into Heavy shoving the whole bar into his mouth in one go, with just a single "NOM" sound effect. Plays in just over a second, making it easier to snack on the go.

In my opinion I think they should bring back the old feature of food items where you can throw them to yourself for quick health exclusively to this item
Dalokohs bar + fists of steel = hilariously tanky payload pusher
You can also quickly equip/unequip the GRU/Eviction Notice a few times just before eating to get the regen benefit
