| − | | |
| − | I've been testing this with bots and other players. The primary fire statistics are pretty much identical to the rocket launcher save for sacrificing the crit rockets for an extra round. The speed is exactly the same. I set up a local host with a bot mimicing me and set the host_timescale to a tenth of normal gamespeed. I used damage indicators to see through all the energy so I could tell when the soldier was injured. He took damage at the same moment I did over the distance of a fairly large room.

| |
| − | | |
| − | Can anyone confirm if there is a decreased splash damage radius on the regular shot (M1 fire for this weapon) compared to the default rocket launcher's splash damage radius, and what the difference in the splash radius of the regular shot (again, M1 fire for this weapon) compared to the charged shot (M2 on this weapon).
| |
| − | Several people have reported that there is a difference, but I haven't had anything come up, but don't want to post anything about it in the weapon stats either way, as I'm not sure.

| − | I added an edit below. Had I seen this first, I would have edited it here. I've done some testing and the splash for both modes is identical to the regular rocket launcher. All three have a splash of about 111 units from where the rocket lands.

| − | == Strange 'Finished Off' Message ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I was playing 2fort on a server when i met an enemy soldier in one of the small ways to the courtyard. I hurted him (so it counts as 'finished off') and then he used his Mangler and hit us both. I died and he survived with low health, but the afterburn caused by his weapon killed him later. The kill icon that appeared when he died, was my name, the Manglers kill icon , then his name. Like i would have killed him with the Cow Mangler.

| − | I played as scout and didnt own the weapon either. Im sure thats a bug. ( i have a screenshot if you want to see it) Should i add it to bugs section? or do you want to see a proof first.[[User:Zeno 01|Zeno 01]] 13:38, 21 July 2011 (PDT)zeno01

| − | == Death animations... ? ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I've been noticing that when enemies get killed by this weapon, sometimes, they will vaporise in strange poses and animations. Anyone else seeing this? Also, does charging the shots increase the probability of this happening? [[User:Reduxist|Reduxist]] 15:27, 21 July 2011 (PDT)

| − | == Projectiles reportedly causing visual lag ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I and several others have noticed that some lower end computers experience visual lag when in the middle of a Mangler explosion. Would this be something worth adding to the trivia section? I know someone may say "Oh it's just the because they have an under-powered computer," but I and the people I've heard only have trouble with this weapon's explosions in particular.

| |
| − | :The trivia section previously noted that it used the paint system instead of having team-colored textures, but it was removed.

| − | I'm not sure where this information belongs, but I came to this wiki to find it. When I found it wasn't here, I had a friend test it with me. I think it's a useful tidbit that people will be looking for, but I don't want to put it someplace inappropriate. I will leave it here just in case anyone happens to be looking.

| − | :It should not be given a special place. The wiki provides both the damage caused by the Cow Mangler and the amount of damage a sentry gun can take.

| − | == Taking down buildings ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Adding on to what Palehorse864 said ~ After some casual testing I found the following: 10 'rockets' for a lvl 1 sentry (29 while wrangled), ~11 for a lvl 2 sentry (34 wrangled), 14 for a lvl 3 sentry (~41 wrangled), 7 for a mini-sentry (19 wrangled). Since all other buildings (dispensers and teleporters) have the same hp/lvl as sentries, same applies to them. Useful tidbit if someone can confirm. [[User:Dweezy|Dweezy]] 16:39, 22 July 2011 (PDT)

| − | ==Airblast reflects the same as super-charge?==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Can anyone confirm if normal (not charged) Mangler lasers reflected with the airblast perform the same as a super-charged laser? Since super-charged lasers automatically mini-crit and ignite the target, and the airblast causes any reflected projectile to always mini-crit, does reflecting a normal Mangler laser turn it into a super-charged one that ignites enemies because it is labeled as a mini-crit? [[User:Cronie|Cronie]] 12:34, 23 July 2011 (PDT)
| |
| − | :I'd assume not - there's nothing to suggest a reflected uncharged projectile has any effect other than the added mini-crit.

| − | == Mentioning the taunt somewhere ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | I noticed the name of the taunt was recently removed from the page. I feel it's unique and worth mentioning somewhere (maybe trivia) that the taunt itself has an official name. The taunt itself was also highlighted as a major bonus on both the WETA site and the blog. [[User:Balladofwindfishes|Balladofwindfishes]] 08:46, 22 July 2011 (PDT)

| − | | |
| − | == Charge Shot stats box is confusing ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | It rightfully says the charge shot's Mini-crit is 146, but since it always mini-crits, therefore suffering no falloff, shouldn't its charge shot stats be changed to reflect that, listing the ramp-up of its Mini-crit instead of its base? --[[User:Vid-szhite|Vid-szhite]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | It suffers no "falloff" but at long range it doesn't get ramp-up. Basically, it gets the 150% or whatever damage box at close range, but at medium-long it uses the base figure, so it's best to include the base. [[User:Palehorse864|Palehorse864]] 18:42, 22 July 2011 (PDT)
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Explosion Radius ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The explosion radius for both primary and charged shot is approximately 111 units. This was calculated by spawning a medic bot in an open room and shooting at the ground in front of him until he started taking damage. I then used cl_showpos and walked a straight line until I bumped into his hitbox. I did the same with the regular rocket launcher and got the same result.

| − | == Reload Times. ==
| |
| − | I compared the reload time for this weapon to the regular RL. The regular one reloads 4 rockets in about 3.4 seconds. The same 4 rockets were reloaded into the Cow Mangler (That's a weird sentence) in 4.2 seconds. I would be appreciative if other people could test this.
| |
| − | | |
| − | How did I test this? I set host_timescale to .1 to slow the game way down and used a stopwatch when I began to reload. I then divided the result by 10 to get a fairly accurate reload time. When the last round was loaded, I hit fire to see if it was ready to shoot. Apparently as soon as that last number goes up, the gun is ready as it fired immediately.

| − | On July 26, 2011, Valve released a patch that "corrected the damage ramp for the Cow Mangler 5000". What exactly had been wrong with it in the first place? -- [[User:Kanosea|Kanosea]] 02:00, 29 July 2011 (PDT)

| − | :It used to ramp up to 150% (121 damage point blank), whereas rocket launchers are only supposed to ramp up to 125%. Was wondering if that was intentional or not. Guess it wasn't. [[User:Secret Agent Clank|Clank]] 04:03, 29 July 2011 (PDT)

| − | ::The charge shot deals the same damage as the regular shot, but with a mini-crit. Reflecting any mangler shot causes it to deal critical damage.

| |
| − | | |
| − | I have deflected cow mangler lasers and have them directly hit the target multiple times. Whenever I see it's a direct hit I also see the damage showing it to be 243. 243 is the crit damage of the lasers if they were able to crit without being deflected and I have never gotten any higher. Perhaps the number was seen incorrectly or somehow it was able to ramp-up? Could someone show a video or picture showing a deflected laser dealing 292 damage?--[[User:Moneypony|Moneypony]] 02:59, 15 October 2011 (PDT)

| − | The projectile appears to have a white diamond model where the rocket model would normally be (by comparison). This is inconsistant with the other energy weapons. I suspect that this is an oversight considering that the particles for this weapon have been altered many times. I know it's possible that this could be the collision model, but most collision models are invisible/not rendered. Should this be listed as a bug? [[User:SupaNeo|SupaNeo]] 12:10, 8 August 2012 (PDT)
