Concussion Jumping is used in Team Fortress Classic to reach areas that are not easily reached by classes other than Soldier or Demoman. Classes with the Concussion Grenade time their grenade throw and jump over it at the moment of its detonation. Concussion jumps require some time to hone and master, but results in players being able to traverse difficult to reach places with less health sacrifices, since concussion grenades disoriented players, but did not do damage.
In Team Fortress 2
In TF2, grenades have been removed from every class except Demoman. This means that it's still possible to do an explosion-boosted jump with the Demoman, even when wielding the Chargin' Targe. However, this will hurt the player, unlike in TFC. This is also usually less effective than sticky jumping, and much harder to control. But when a Demoman is using the Charge and Targe weapon rather than the sticky bomb launcher, grenade jumping can be employed by shooting a grenade, and jumping above it just before detonation. This is similar to Rocket Jumping.
Trivia
- Concussion Jumping is one of two ways to get across 2Fort in Team Fortress Classic.
- This form of grenade jumping is often used in conjunction with bunny hopping to quickly speed across a map.
