TF2: The Immortal Soldier

Ойындар

The Black Box is a pub favourite, but how does it really stack up?
I've learn a lot in the process of making this video, so I am excited to bring more TF2 content like this in the future! Also, yes, that's a Naruto bit at the start, what are you gonna do about it?

    I think I know why you got crits more often. You said it lets you stay in the frontline longer. Your chance of getting a crit increases the more damage you have recently done. The black box gives you sustain. I imagine you had many moments where you would weave in and out of extended skirmishes one after the other while it heals you enough that you can take the next fight.

    Soldier is the opposite of mobile if you use a melee weapon except if you use the escape plan it will be hard to kill most classes with melee weapons because most of them is faster than soldier. If you have a melee weapon that damages you if you change into your primary you’re pretty much gonna give your opponent the upper hand since your chances of killing them with the half zatoichi is low unless it’s another soldier or demo using the same weapon.

    and if the medic does decide to heal you you're basically invincible in a team fight outside of charged headshots or backstabs. Downside of having one less rocket doesn't matter when you have all the time in the world to reload. Pretty cancerous in pubs. Can just hold a chokepoint forever on defense which I don't find fun even when I'm the one doing it.

    I found from playing with my brother that having a Black Box and a banner doesn't let me get much value from an uber because I run out of steam too quickly, but pairing it with a Shotgun lets me really milk a Kritz charge because the BB healing helps me survive the attention a charge brings my way, and the shotty enables me to keep shooting if there are still targets after the BB is empty or to kill a low value target without spending a rocket.

    the black box DOES actually let you still play hyper aggressively! remember that last rocket you use to jump away? YOU DON'T NEED IT. jump in, kill everyone involved, use the health on hit to HOLD YOUR GROUND. let your team advance to where you just cleared everything out while you're reloading, then play some more hyper aggression to further push the enemy team back, while continuously extending your fallback line by allowing your team to move up behind you. you're suddenly both a team player AND a hyper aggressive 260 health explosive flying scout. EVERYTHING must learn to fear you.

    Personally that lost rocket bugs me a lot so I've been getting back to basics with the Shotgun; Having it means I can spend a rocket and some health to jump in, spend the other two rockets getting the first kill for a health rebate, and still have 6 shells and 200HP to brute force a solution if I've got no time to reload. Without an offensive secondary I find that loadouts with the Black Box run out of steam too fast for me to get the value I want from ubercharges and banners, and I also find that enemy players using the BB with a banner are easy kills when I've got more ammo to outlast them with or a method of deflecting their rockets.

    I can explain the BB's seemingly higher crit rate. TF2 has a mechanic whee, if a player is performing well and doing a lot of damage, they will have a higher crit chance. but it's not just from doing damage, it's also boosted by HEALING. so you are damaging the enemy and healing yourself, your random crit chance will be higher than other launchers.

    Alright, here are the facts as I understand them. Personally. I see BB + Conch too much in casual. You make a good point, the soldier in question does give up a lot to use it. But when it's a problem is coincidentally where I see it the most, tryhards with a medic up their ass. BB is usually aussie, but they just abuse it to no end. I'm so specific because that's the only time I actually notice it really, because it's well balanced enough to fit into the game. BB + Panic Attack is the gold standard. That's a frontline brawler, have fun reloading though. BB + gunboats is my guilty pleasure. It is too much fun if you play around health packs, roamer is just too much fun with sustainability.

    I've always found that BB with a non-shotgun leaves me unable to reliably engage when it's not just a straggler or two. I just don't have the firepower to do what I need to do and get out. It'll take at least two BB rockets to do anything beyond mopping up someone who's already half dead, and that leaves you reloading. Hence why like you said I like running with the panic attack. BB + Concherer is great for straight engagements, but everyone knows that jumping is where the joy of soldier comes from. A shotgun lets you follow up if you just barely missed a kill, or lets you surprise someone who was expecting you to try and jump away or something.

    Another thing you should mention about the conch is that it is TERRIFYING when you jump right into a group. You can chuck rockets at targets in breathing distance and just heal your self-damage back, even more if there's multiple enemies cramped up. Great for suicidal group wipes or medic bombs.

    I think I know why the black box crits so much is because the more damage you do in a certain amount of time the more likely you will get a crit and the black box allows you to survive and because you heal on hit be more aggressive making your Crit chance higher and higher.

    One thing I've realized recently... This combo also gets EATEN by pyros. You can't Splash Damage them out and hit a direct, because having 175 health means they become a bit of a problem past the 90 damage range. This means they can get up close and wreck you with flames, and since this combo is so common, you don't have a shotgun, AND if one of your rockets get reflected you may not have enough damage output to take them down without reloading, this combo certainly adds to pyro hate.

    i'm pretty sure the reason the black box random crits more is because healing is also counted towards the 800 damage dealt the last 30 seconds that increase your crit chance and since you are healing your self quite a bit i assume that's the reason it random crits more.

    The increased Crit thing is due to how crits are calculated, its the same reason that medic crits so often and why the half-zatoichi used to crit all the time before random crits were removed from it entirely. You have an improved crit chance the more damage and healing you do, and these stack, so if you are doing both damage and healing you have a much higher crit chance than just standard weapons.

  • @Asdf-wf6en

    I like to use the black box, panic attack and disciplinary action. The black box lets you heal, the panic attack is good for combo'ing which mitigates the decreased ammo capacity and the disciplinary action gets you to the battle faster and makes you less dependent on rocket jumping.

It's a shame because the video isn't a bad video, but that plug considering everything that's going on - and the fact that it's just free advertising, despite falsely believing you can separate that (lol) - is tone deaf at least.

Jumper, and any melee, then I work on getting 4 kills, then I’d rocket jump into the air and then once I start falling (with the base jumper equipped) I’d activate the parachute, reload, then rain hell on the enemy team, it is so much fun for me. Or if I’m using the conch, I’d get up high, regain my health then do the same thing just without the parachute
