Heavy Tips

-------------------------------------------------
DESTROYING BABIES: THE CLASS
-------------------------------------------------

-Never forget this, because this is very important: YOU ARE A SUPPORT AND DEFENCE CLASS. You know what this means? It means you aren't there to run into the enemy spawn armed with a sandvich and the bravery of an eagle.

-Jump and rev around corners. It's pretty self-explanatory.

-You managed to bag yourself a loyal pocket medic? Well done you, but remember: You are not invincible just because a German is shoving lasers up your ass, you can still be easily taken down by 2 demos/soldiers or any class being played by someone who isn't a mouthbreather.

-Another medic point: HE ISN'T THERE FOR YOUR BENEFIT ONLY If for any reason the Nazi has stopped giving you his love juice, turn the fuck around. One of two things will have happened: If he's healing another player, just carry on as you were and call him WHEN YOU ACTUALLY NEED HIM, or two, theres a spy about to insert his manhood into your squishy spinal tissue.

-Learn2distance. All the miniguns have embarrassingly poor accuracy at anything past medium range, try to move into range and use cover, rather than wasting four gorillion bullets for 30 damage.

-Generally any indoor area that limits the amount of movement is a paradise for Heavies. Look for areas like stairwells, tunnels, small rooms and the like and you'll find they'll have more trouble "outsmarting bullets".

-When dealing with Demos and Soldier, prevent them from getting the high ground. They're especially vunerable to attack when airbourne, if you can manage to lay a few hits on them in midair the minigun's knockback will guarantee they plummet to their deaths.

-Generally, keep supressing fire on any enemy and allow your team to pick them off if they're too far from you for your minigun to do much damage.

WHO TOUCHED MY LOADOUT?!
-----------------------------------------------

-You have 4 primary choices and THEY ALL DO THE SAME DAMN THING. Default’s always good, Tomislav is good if you feel like jacking off by yourself in the enemy base, the BB is only good for being a sentry with a little bit of mobility and defense and turning into a midget with polio, and the Natascha isn’t. End of rine.

-You will use the sandvich or the shotgun for your secondary. The others are shit. Always give your sandvich to your medic. He needs it more than you.
NOTE: Sandvich recently got a HUGE nerf. Now, the Heavy can't toss it down and heal himself. It's still the best secondary, but only toss it to your pocket/bros that need health.

-There are only two real options for melee, and they depend on one factor: Do you have a pocket medic?
     -If the answer is yes, get the Gloves of Running Urgently (GRU).
     -If not, equip the Fists of Steel whilst running back into the fight.
