The '''Gloves of Running Urgently''' ('''G.R.U.''') are a  [[Weapons#heavymelee|melee weapon]] for the [[Heavy]]. They are similar in appearance to the [[Killing Gloves of Boxing]], but designed with flame decals and orange rings around the cuffs.

The '''Gloves of Running Urgently''' ('''G.R.U.''') are a  [[Weapons#heavymelee|melee weapon]] for the [[Heavy]]. They are a pair of large, padded, team-colored boxing gloves, similar in appearance to the [[Killing Gloves of Boxing]], with flame decals and orange rings around the cuffs.
  
While the Gloves of Running Urgently are the active weapon, the Heavy moves 30% faster - at 99.67% base movement [[speed]], a rate of 299 [[Hammer unit]]s per second (about 13 miles per hour). While this effect is active, the Heavy is vulnerable to [[mini-crits]] and will remain for 3 seconds after switching out, indicated by a [[Particle effects#Marked For Death effects|skull and crossbones]] appearing above him, and a skull icon on the [[HUD]]. The increased speed effect does not stack with other effects, such as being hit by the [[Disciplinary Action]] or eating a [[Buffalo Steak Sandvich]]. As the downside, The Gloves of Running Urgently deals 25% less damage and switch-away to another weapons 50% slower.
+
While the Gloves of Running Urgently are the active weapon, the Heavy moves 30% faster at 99.67% of the base movement [[speed]], or 299 [[Hammer unit]]s per second (roughly 20.4 km/h or 12.7 mph). However, each time the gloves are deployed, the user's max health is instantly lowered by 20 and then further drained while the weapon is active at a rate of -10 health per second. The user's max health does not decay below 100. Holstering the weapon allows the user's max health to begin regenerating at the same rate. As this occurs, the user's current health changes in a way that keeps their health percentage constant; a Heavy at half health remains at half health no matter how this weapon modifies his max health (aside from rounding errors). The user's max [[overheal]] is also reduced when deployed, remaining at 150% of the user's current max health and 125% when using the [[Quick-Fix]].  
  
As with the Fists and most of the Heavy's melee weapons, primary fire swings the left fist, secondary fire swings the right fist, and the critical hit animation is always a right-handed uppercut.

Ooohhhh, run, run, I'm coming for you!
The Heavy running urgently to the front-lines

The Gloves of Running Urgently (G.R.U.) are a melee weapon for the Heavy. They are a pair of large, padded, team-colored boxing gloves, similar in appearance to the Killing Gloves of Boxing, with flame decals and orange rings around the cuffs.

While the Gloves of Running Urgently are the active weapon, the Heavy moves 30% faster at 99.67% of the base movement speed, or 299 Hammer units per second (roughly 20.4 km/h or 12.7 mph). However, each time the gloves are deployed, the user's max health is instantly lowered by 20 and then further drained while the weapon is active at a rate of -10 health per second. The user's max health does not decay below 100. Holstering the weapon allows the user's max health to begin regenerating at the same rate. As this occurs, the user's current health changes in a way that keeps their health percentage constant; a Heavy at half health remains at half health no matter how this weapon modifies his max health (aside from rounding errors). The user's max overheal is also reduced when deployed, remaining at 150% of the user's current max health and 125% when using the Quick-Fix.

As with the Fists, and most of the Heavy's other melee weapons, primary fire swings the left fist, secondary fire swings the right fist, and the Critical hit animation is always a right-handed uppercut.

The kill icon for the G.R.U. was contributed by flutterravie.

  • Three variants of the Gloves of Running Urgently were featured in the closed beta, the attributes of which were leaked by testers. They did not have their own texture or taunt and instead used the Killing Gloves of Boxing's model and the High Noon taunt as placeholders.
    • G.R.U. Beta 3 was identical to the weapon as it was originally implemented in the Mann-Conomy Update.
  • The Mann Co. Catalog has two instances of the Gloves of Running Urgently, one using the weapon's stats from before the Jungle Inferno Update; this version is exclusively used for Heavyweight Champ robots in Mann vs. Machine and is not accessible in-game by players.
