[QUOTE=vonripper;34095856]My reserve shooter kills people and that's what I want it to do :downs:[/QUOTE] isn't that the point of most weapons

[QUOTE=LaughingStock;34095816]I don't understand why so many pyros use the reserve shooter, aren't you pretty much useless at midrange+? If someone gets close enough to airblast wouldn't the axtinguisher be a better choice?[/QUOTE] I'd rather keep the Homewrecker equipped. You'll never know when you're going to need it. I'm still debating over the use of the Reserve Shooter / Default Shotgun though. Reserve Shooter is a sort of replacement "sting" to make up for not using the Axtinguisher. Less ammo and therefore hindering at midrange+, but it has been proven faithful to me recently. Also, I honestly don't see many Pyros using it. Most of the time, it is either the Default or the Flaregun, or I don't see them use their secondary at all.

I currently use Phlog+Flaregun+Volcano. When I do Pybro I go Degreaser+Shotgun+ Wrecker.

Homewrecker all the time 'erry time

I'm using the shotgun now, but a few weeks ago I wrecked everyone with the flaregun. It's so nice being able to kill a scout from across the map who's running for a health pack.

[QUOTE=HyperTails;34095847] Man I really dislike the Overdose. I really don't notice the movement increase at all.[/QUOTE] i have the overdose for the sake of having the item. cos most of the time i heal my people with stock and kritz fully before going into a chokepoint, and from then their abilities outweigh the OD.

I switch on and off with the Flare gun. I find it useful for awhile, rackin' up the kills, but then I encounter another Pyro and realize why I use a shotgun in the first place.

Phlog + Flaregun + Axtinguisher. Crit Machine.

Alright, I've been trying to fix this by myself for a long time but no luck, so I'll ask you guys. In almost all tf2 maps I play, the water is just a blank white. Any way to get the normal water? I tried verifying game cache, but that didnt work. Any help?

[QUOTE=Ern;34095997]Phlog + Flaregun + Axtinguisher. Crit Machine.[/QUOTE] Is this your normal loudout? I'd advise you to use the Manmelter with the Phlogjsdgvbhakaf so you can put out fires, and the use of the Axetinguisgher seems to be hindered without a form of fast weapon switching or "puffing". Plus it leaves you almost defenseless against another Pyro or underwater. I don't have the Phlogdjabkcvdv yet, so do share what it is like to use it. I may be wrong.

[QUOTE=HyperTails;34096095]Installed any custom skins or mods? Graphics settings?[/QUOTE] No skins that would affect water, no mods, graphics settings are pretty low to play on my laptop, but I still should see more than just blank white where water is. [QUOTE=marcus5;34096115]did you install any cfg? chris's config?[/QUOTE] I have a config installed, but the problem was there before I installed it too

Im the only one who use the flamethrower,shotgun and Backscratcher? I don't know. Feels good and you can defend yourself better when you find another pyro.

I thought about using the Homewrecker but I mentally compared how often I'd be around to do some unsapping vs how often I get kills I get with the Axt and decided the Axt was far more useful to me [QUOTE=DatHarry;34096045] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/GB7d6.png[/IMG] My avg pyro replay.[/QUOTE] Especially funny when you consider how Scout has the advantage in Pyro vs Scout edit: [QUOTE=t man;34095669]Can anybody help me out with this? I've been trying to trade this Muskelmannbraun Vintage Glengarry bonnet to TF2WH but Steam trading doesn't seem to want to recognize it, when I try to offer it this happens: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/dio3c.png[/IMG] Doesn't happen with anything else. I did reinstall Steam today, as Steam trading and some community stuff wouldn't load right on my computer.[/QUOTE] Reposting this for this page, any insight is appreciated!

Degreaser + Flare Gun/Manmelter + Homewrecker/Axtinguisher Manmelter and Axtinguisher on offence Homewrecker Flaregun on defence. Best setup.

[QUOTE==DarkStar=;34096135]Im the only one who use the flamethrower,shotgun and Backscratcher? I don't know. Feels good and you can defend yourself better when you find another pyro.[/QUOTE] I honestly have no use for the default Flamethrower anymore. Less burn damage on the Degreaser means nothing when you can switch THUPER FASSHTH to your shotgun or melee and kill them instantly. They might get away sometimes due to less damage, but the utility of the quick switch is so... dare I say... unbalanced, that I couldn't pass it up. Backburner is fine too for those ambushes, but I don't think I can ever return to the default Flamethrower. Some people think that the Degreaser is that one weapon that Pyro finally deserved to get a much needed buff. I feel indifferent at this. I did just fine as Pyro before the Degreaser, but now I can't go back.

[QUOTE=HyperTails;34096196] Wow, they buffed it?[/QUOTE] Well I know what loadout i'm using NOW.

"Once I'm eated my Fishcake in overheal - I'm have 650hp" hmm interesting

I need an All Father, orange paint, and security shades. Pronto. [img]http://theguitarbuzz.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Billy-Gibbons.jpg[/img]

I just traded for a Noh Mercy. But then I noticed the crafter's name. [url]http://tf2b.com/item/76561198022475704/636367836[/url] I have a genuine trollface crafted by RubberFruit. Worth millions. I don't even know how it ended in my friend's backpack v:v:v And before someone asks yes it's from the real RubberFruit, checked and re-checked.
