Is it possible to tell whether the Huntsman dealing non-critical headshot damage is a bug or not? [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] 13:36, 27 October 2012 (PDT)

The default 3D model (called "Default") is the green one.

:Not a bug. Merasmus' head hitbox is huge, and the huntsman's minor aim correction thing plays into that as well. Further, he takes critical damage from everyone when he's throwing bombs or stunned. ==[[User:FaxCelestis|Fax Celestis]] <sub>[[User_talk:FaxCelestis|talk]]</sub><small>[[Special:Contributions/FaxCelestis|contrib]]</small><sup>[http://wiki.faxcelestis.net/ home]</sup> 14:18, 28 October 2012 (PDT)

: Merasmus spawns in the green form and is in the green form for the majority of the boss fight. The green form is by definition his "default" state.

Is it safe to say at this point that Merasmus is simply the roommate of the Soldier, rather than the RED Soldier or BLU Soldier? It's been referenced on both teams in the comics that the Soldier's roommate is a magician. <small>— ''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' '''[[User:Bralef|Bralef]]''' ([[User talk:Bralef|talk]]) • ([[Special:Contributions/Bralef|contribs]]) 07:24, 28 October 2012</small>
 
 
 
I think you have to say he is the RED soldiers roommate since that was shown in the latest comic [[User:Sleutelkind|Sleutelkind]] 04:58, 28 October 2012 (PDT)
 
 
 
In the comics, RED Soldier is Merasmus' roommate, and BLU Soldier is friends with RED Demoman. They just don't have team-specific lines in-game, so both soldiers wind up saying the same lines. [[User:Redjarman|Redjarman]] 12:00, 29 October 2012 (PDT)
 
 
 
== Merasmus voice actor? ==
 
 
 
Anyone else think that Merasmus sometimes sounds like Wheatley from Portal 2? Cause some of the lines he says sounds like wheatley (including some of the sarcasm). Could make a nice trivia if it's found to be true. [[User:Ashes|Ashes]] 02:27, 28 October 2012 (PDT)

::It's definitely not Stephen Merchant, but I do wonder who the voice actors are for him and the Bombinomicon. It's the first time completely new voiced characters have been introduced, I think. EDIT: Listening to all the voice clips, I think it might actually be Robin Atkin Downes, the guy who voiced the Medic. It's just a guess, though. --[[User:Tinker|Tinker]] 04:49, 28 October 2012 (PDT)
 
:::If it is Robin Atkin Downes, I'd be pretty pissed off.. He can voice an entirely new character, but he cant give the poor Medic some Domination lines? Wtf! [[User:Untamed64|Untamed64]] 08:04, 28 October 2012 (PDT)
 
:::::Considering they put in a ton of Medic voice lines just for this event, they had him around anyway.--[[User:Tinker|Tinker]] 03:39, 29 October 2012 (PDT)
 
:::: Might want to listen to some of the lines Merasmus says. Especially the ones after you get Uber. You can hear a slight British accent in some of the lines. Also the sarcasm he gives as well. [[User:Ashes|Ashes]] 12:37, 28 October 2012 (PDT)
 
::::: Even if he does, that doesn't make him Stephen Merchant. --[[User:Tinker|Tinker]] 03:30, 29 October 2012 (PDT)
 
::::::I'm actually thinking this is Gary Schwartz for Merasmus (listen to the laughs he does... sounds like the Demoman), while the Bombinomicon is actually Nolan North, the voice actor for Uncharted's main star Nathan Drake.  Yes, even though Bombinomicon sounds like a weird and warped version of Speedy Gonzales with some "Bomb-head" intentions, it's still Nolan. :D  [[User:That Guy|That Guy]] 12:31, 29 October 2012 (PDT)

== Bombinomicon as a separate topic and page?==
 
 
 
After listening to endless new voice clips added in the new Halloween update, and the bigger role that the Bombinomicon has from both the Monoculus and the newer Halloween Boss, Merasmus, I see it fitting to give the Bombinomicon a newer page separate from its Badge page.  While the Bombinomicon is a book, it talks, interacts with players, and plays important story roles in both Halloween specials of 2011 and 2012.  Anybody agree?  I need a vote :P  [[User:That Guy|That Guy]]  12:41 29 October 2012

Default vs. Alternate model by default

The default 3D model (called "Default") is the green one. I believe the human-looking one (not green), which is the "Alternate" right now, should be the default, as I think that it would make more sense (the 2D model, for instance, shows the human-looking one).
