| obtain-level = Medium-Hard
| obtain-text = Unless another Heavy is attempting to get this achievement as well, it is uncommon that two Heavies would be "boxing" each other. In most situations where you would encounter a Heavy, that player would most likely have his or her [[Minigun]] out and is most likely being pocketed by a [[Medic]]. The easiest way to get this achievement is to have a Medic ÜberCharge you, and punch an enemy Heavy to death. The slower attack speed of K.G.B. makes this harder, but if you can get the Crit-boost from killing another player then the Heavy should go down with no problem. This achievement also works when using the [[Fists of Steel]] or [[Warrior's Spirit]]. Using the Fists of Steel can give you enough survivability to kill lone Heavies, but puts you at a disadvantage should that player switch to melee. Getting kills during [[Sudden Death]] also count toward this achievement.
+
| obtain-text = It is rather uncommon to find two [[Heavy|Heavies]] "boxing" each other, unless it is for fun. If possible, ambush an enemy Heavy after acquiring the K.G.B.'s critical boost from another victim. [[Medieval Mode]] presents more opportunities for the achievement's required scenario.
[[Arena]] maps are also quite conducive to this achievement; given the Heavy's survivability and the general higher probability of end-of-round scenarios boiling down to 'for fun' melee duels, Heavy boxing matches can be quite common.

| obtain-level = Medium
 
| obtain-level = Medium
| obtain-text = Since most Heavy vs. Heavy fights come down to who has fired or Crits first, it is recommended that you have an [[ÜberCharge]] from the [[Medi Gun]] or [[Kritzkrieg]] to give you an advantage. Upon the death of their patient, most Medics will turn tail and run, so try to damage the Medic during the fight as well, and if you are ÜberCharged go for the Medic first so that you can pick off the much slower Heavy at your leisure. If the opposing pair has an ÜberCharge ready for deployment, it's best to focus more on the opposing Medic to pressure a premature deployment.  If no ÜberCharge or Kritzkrieg is available, look for the element of surprise and attack the pair when they aren't expecting it, especially when the Heavy's [[Minigun]] isn't revved up.
+
| obtain-text = To win such an encounter, ambush the opposing pair or have your Medic deploy an [[ÜberCharge]]. If not ambushing, aim for the enemy [[Heavy]] first, then kill the Medic as he flees. To defeat another Heavy, the standard [[Minigun]] or [[Brass Beast]] is preferred for its raw damage.
 
 
Also, keep in mind that your primary weapon also plays an important factor if no ÜberCharges are available for either side. Dueling with an enemy Heavy while wielding [[Natascha]] puts you at a disadvantage due to its lower damage, but using the [[Brass Beast]] can give you a considerable advantage as the enemy cannot retreat very easily.

| obtain-level = Easy
| obtain-text = While the Heavy can survive a single melee Critical hit strike, all other classes besides the [[Soldier]] or a [[Demoman]] who has collected four or more heads with the [[Eyelander]] (assuming full health) will die in a single hit unless they are overhealed by a [[Medic]]. Whenever you're locked into a close-quarters battle, simply take out your fists and try to kill the enemy.  Eventually you will land a Crit and kill something. You can also equip the [[Killing Gloves of Boxing]] and kill an enemy player to use the 5 seconds of Crits for this achievement.
+
| obtain-text = Switch to your melee weapon and hope that you get a Critical strike. The [[Killing Gloves of Boxing]] or [[Buffalo Steak Sandvich]] can also be used for guaranteed crit-boosts.

| obtain-level = Easy-Medium
| obtain-text = Since the Heavy is rather slow, quick action is required since most often it will be [[Scout]]s that try to steal the Intelligence. When you hear the alert, watch your Intelligence compass to determine the enemy player's escape route and move to intercept. This is easiest on [[2Fort]] since there are only 2 entrances to the Intelligence room. Using [[Natascha]] to slow the runner down can make this achievement somewhat easier.
+
| obtain-text = The Heavy is rather slow, which means chasing a fleeing enemy is almost impossible. When an enemy player takes your Intelligence, use the Intelligence compass to locate and intercept him. [[Natascha]] can be used to slow the runner down, while the [[Tomislav]] can ensure that you're able to get some shots off.

| obtain-level = Medium
| obtain-text = The Heavy has enough health to survive a Critical rocket from full health, but players will rarely find themselves in a position where they have full health in such an occasion without a Medic. It's highly recommended that you keep a Medic with you when fighting Soldiers, if you see a Critical rocket and you have enough health to survive it, jump in front, although this is also largely unnecessary as any rockets that are fired close enough for you to intercept are probably aimed at you anyways. Note that surviving afterward is optional (though preferable), you only need to survive the hit from the Critical rocket itself. Be wary of Critical rockets from the [[Direct Hit]] though, as those do enough damage to kill you unless you are overhealed.
+
| obtain-text = While the Heavy has a large pool of health, keep a [[Medic]] nearby to stay [[overhealed]] and easily survive a critical rocket as you fight on the front lines. Critical rockets from the [[Rocket Jumper]] and [[MONOCULUS]] will also count toward the achievement.
It should be noted that a crit from the [[Rocket Jumper]], despite doing 0 damage, will also award the achievement.

| obtain-text = For this achievement, stay near a Health source for your Medic, and an ammo source for continued firing. It's recommended that you stay in friendly territory and let the enemy come to you. If you or your Medic are in danger, retreat immediately and remember to keep your guard up for [[Spy|Spies]] and [[Sniper]]s. This achievement coincides with the Medic's "Big Pharma" achievement. Having an [[ÜberCharge]] ready for emergencies will greatly increase your chances of survival. If your Medic has a [[Kritzkrieg]], then ambushing a large group of enemies with it can net you several kills very quickly, allowing you to complete the rest at your leisure.
+
| obtain-text = This achievement coincides with "[[Obtaining Medic achievements#Big Pharma|Big Pharma]]", a corresponding achievement for the Medic. Be a good [[Medic buddy]]; save your [[Sandvich]] for him and play conservatively. If possible, keep an [[ÜberCharge]] ready for emergencies.

| obtain-text = The fact that Natascha can slow the Scouts gives you more time to deal damage, and can prevent them from getting around a corner in time. Using Natascha, you can easily kill Scouts who attempt to circle strafe you or try to run away. While Scouts will normally try to get within close range in order to maximize the damage from their [[Scattergun]], this also works in your favor due to your weapon's inaccuracy at longer ranges, and Natascha's slowdown effect diminishes at longer ranges.
+
| obtain-text = While both the Heavy and the Scout excel at close range, you have more health. Use Natascha's [[slowdown]] to keep Scouts pinned down and unable to dodge your fire.

| obtain-text = A grind achievement, you do not have to get all the kills in a single life. Due to the fact you are "leashed" to the dispenser, this achievement can be slow to come by. Ask for a Dispenser in choke points to make this easier, but also watch out that the Dispenser isn't easily destroyed.  Kills while pushing the [[cart]] on a Payload map also count. This is somewhat easier to accomplish on defense, as the enemy will come to you, but beware of [[ÜberCharge]]d [[Demoman|Demomen]] who may attempt to destroy the [[Engineer]]'s nest. Because the Engineer achievement "(Not So) Lonely Are The Brave" requires an Engineer to keep a Heavy healed with a Dispenser while he gains five kills, you may be able to work with an achievement-hunting Engineer on this one. If you have the [[Brass Beast]], you can take advantage of its increased firepower since you will not need to move around as much anyways.
+
| obtain-text = This achievement partially coincides with "[[Obtaining Engineer achievements#(Not_So)_Lonely_Are_the_Brave|(Not So) Lonely Are the Brave]]", a corresponding achievement for the [[Engineer]]. Ask that a Dispenser be placed near chokepoints to allow you to stay near the front lines. If on the defensive, staying near a Dispenser turns you into a slightly more mobile [[Sentry Gun]]. Any kills made while pushing a [[Payload#Carts|Payload cart]] will count toward this achievement, as a payload is a mobile Level 1 Dispenser.

| obtain-level = Easy
| obtain-text = Due to the Heavy's slow speed, it is next to impossible to walk from the Teleporter and kill someone within five seconds. However, you may end up lucky and use the Teleporter just as someone attempts to destroy the base on the other side. If you somehow manage to [[telefrag]] someone, you will also earn the achievement.
+
| obtain-text = Obtaining this achievement will also count toward ''Riftwalker'', a general achievement. Immediately after teleporting, look for any nearby enemies to kill. If you manage to [[telefrag]] someone, you will also earn the achievement.
 
 
If you know the enemy team is making a push, for example, during a payload, and a teleporter to the vicinity is still up, you may be able to teleport and try to kill an enemy player in a suicide rush.
 
 
 
This achievement has the same requirements as the general achievement "Riftwalker," so completing this will get you two achievements simultaneously.

| obtain-text = Hang around on defense on a control point of your own and kill them there; if you are just respawning as your team is losing a capture point, try to quickly get onto the next point to prevent [[Scout]]s or [[Spy|Spies]] from trying to quickly capture the next point. [[Gravel Pit]] is an easy map on which to attempt this achievement. Sitting next to a [[Dispenser]] can make this easier since you don't need to move around for health and ammo, and kills would also go for the "Factory Worker" achievement. As you need to stay on the control point in order to earn points toward this achievement, using the [[Brass Beast]] can give you additional firepower to earn this achievement more easily.
+
| obtain-text = On most maps, action happens most frequently near the control points. Standing on a control point will prevent enemies from capturing it, leaving you free to open fire.

| obtain-text = At $200 a cartridge, $200,000 requires you to fire 1000 rounds; approximately 1 minute and 45 seconds of continuous fire is needed to obtain this achievement. It can be done, without the risk of being killed, inside of the respawn point next to the resupply cabinet. If you want to do it within actual combat, sitting next to a [[Dispenser]] or on the [[Payload cart]] can get you the achievement.  
+
| obtain-text = If each cartridge costs $200, you will need to fire 1000 rounds to spend $200,000. This equates to approximately 2 minutes of continuous fire. It may be easier to attempt this achievement during [[Setup]].

| obtain-text = This should come after a reasonable amount of time playing as the Heavy. As you've already killed a player three times without being killed by that player in return in order to earn a Domination, you probably are already killing him or her repeatedly anyway. The only thing to watch out for is the fact that they will attempt to single you out over nearby teammates in order to get Revenge. Be wary, since some people will switch classes to [[Spy]] or [[Sniper]] solely for the purpose of Revenge. If so, simply have your teammates watch your back for Spies and don't spin up your [[Minigun]] in open areas.

+
| obtain-text = The Heavy is designed to absorb large amounts of damage, so keep a [[Medic]] nearby and stay at the front lines. Lethal damage that exceeds your current health, such as that from a [[backstab]], counts toward the total requirement.

| obtain-text = You should get this after a while playing Heavy. Just spread a wide spray of bullets in open areas with lots of enemies, mainly at the beginning of the round, and hope someone else takes the enemy out. [[Natascha]] is a good weapon of choice when going for this achievement as you are more likely to get assists, rather than kills due to its lower damage. This works best if you team up with another player, such as a [[Sasha]]-wielding Heavy (which will also quickly net you the "Soviet Union" achievement).
+
| obtain-text = This achievement will naturally be obtained after a modest amount of time playing as the [[Heavy]]. Although the [[Minigun]] deals less damage at longer ranges, you can still use it to provide support.

| obtain-text = Simply keep eating Sandviches and it should come naturally. This is made much easier by the Sandvich's unlimited supply. Sandviches eaten during the setup phase count towards this achievement, so you can simply eat Sandviches until the round begins. It is unnecessary to "grind" for this achievement since you will eventually eat that many Sandviches anyways. Consumption of the [[Dalokohs Bar]] and [[Buffalo Steak Sandvich]] also count towards this achievement.
+
| obtain-text = Consume the Sandvich between firefights to stay healthy. The Sandvich does not have to actually heal you, so you could continually eat while at full health. Consuming a Sandvich that was dropped by another Heavy will count towards the achievement.

| obtain-text = Most players are not familiar with moving around in water, so try to ambush them whenever possible. [[2Fort]] is an ideal map to get points for this achievement, as any player that jumps into the water will likely be injured. If you have a [[Pyro]] on your team this will be more effective as you're likely to get people diving in to extinguish themselves. Be sure not to camp the water for long periods of time, however, as you will run low on ammo after a while, and the other team may actively hunt you if you do it for too long.
+
| obtain-text = [[2Fort]] and [[Well]] have bodies of [[water]] situated reasonably near areas of combat. If an enemy retreats into a body of water, follow them in to finish the job, using the Shotgun if they continue to flee.
 
 
Alternatively, another good place to work towards this achievement is to lurk in the water-filled trenches in [[Well]]. The bridges provide enough cover for you to surface and breathe without being seen.

Killing them in either of the situations counts towards this achievement, and you'll typically get it after playing for some time as Heavy.

| obtain-text = Whenever possible, try to ambush the Demoman from behind where that player is not expecting it, don't go directly in front of him or her because he or she will either see you or blow up the stickies in your face. In regular play, try to kill every Demoman you see and hope they had a mine field laid down. This is easier to accomplish if you ambush Demomen that are using the [[Scottish Resistance]], as bombs laid by the weapon take longer to prime, thus giving you the advantage in a confrontation, and it allows the Demoman to lay up to 14 stickies at once. When you are [[ÜberCharge]]d, Demomen will often try to lay stickies at your feet and detonate them at the end of the charge, so always single out any nearby Demomen in these situations.
+
| obtain-text = At close range, the Heavy dominates the Demoman. Killing a Demoman will automatically remove all of his active Stickybombs.

It is not recommended to ''allow'' an enemy to injure your Medic before killing them, since they could possibly kill your Medic. Simply keep a close eye on your Medic and kill anyone who approaches.

| obtain-text = For this achievement, a [[Medic]] and nearby ammo source are essential. [[Dispenser]]s gives you health and ammo, and the Medic can overheal you and use [[ÜberCharge]]s on you. Stay out of open areas to prevent being killed by [[Sniper]]s, and have your teammates watch your back for [[Spy|Spies]]. Stay near a corner so that you can retreat without having to un-rev your Minigun, and pick up dropped weapons that are close to you to refill your ammo. Under certain situations, you may be able to accomplish this with a single [[Kritzkrieg]], as it will allow you to quickly kill everyone in the immediate area, without having to deal with fall-off damage. This achievement may be easier to accomplish when defending on an attack/defend map like [[Dustbowl]], as enemies will come to you, eliminating the need to move around much. Keep in mind that if using the [[Brass Beast]], you move much more slowly and thus are considerably more vulnerable to attack.
+
| obtain-text = It is easier to keep your Minigun continuously active when in a defensive scenario where enemies are forced to deal with you, such as when standing on a control point or pushing a [[Payload#Carts|Payload cart]]. Continuously keeping your weapon revved will render you nearly immobile, so equip [[Natascha]] if you want to prevent foes from fleeing. Stay near a [[Dispenser]] or grab dropped weapons to avoid running out of ammunition.

Some [[Medic]]s may encourage this though, as there is a Medic achievement, "Bedside Manner," for when their patients get an achievement while being healed.

You will get one capture every several seconds or so, so constantly staying near the cart will quickly rack up points for this achievement.

| obtain-text = Being shot, burned and hit with explosives comes naturally to the Heavy; being bludgeoned by a melee weapon, however, does not. If you've already taken explosive and bullet damage, there is one main occurrence where fire and melee damage come commonly: a [[Pyro]] who has unlocked the [[Axtinguisher]] will burn you, then attempt you melee you to death with the Axtingiusher. This should give you the achievement, but if you wish to survive, kill the Pyro after the first swing. Note that the [[Scout]]'s [[Sandman]] baseball counts as a bludgeon attack, so if you see a Scout with the Sandman, try to goad that player into hitting you with it if you have already been hit with the other three types of attacks.
+
| obtain-text = While at the front lines, keep a [[Medic]] nearby to stay healthy as you soak up damage. You must be shot by a [[hitscan]] weapon, such as the [[Sniper Rifle]] or [[Shotgun]], [[Fire|burned]] by a [[Pyro]], bludgeoned by a [[melee]] weapon, and receive explosive damage from the [[Rocket Launcher]] or similar weaponry. Items such as the [[Sandvich]] and [[Fists of Steel]] might make surviving all this incoming damage a bit easier.

| obtain-text = The easiest way to get this achievement is to intentionally empty out your Minigun ammunition, take out your Shotgun and hunt down a weak class, such as a [[Medic]], [[Spy]] or [[Sniper]]. Avoid fighting strong close range classes such as the [[Pyro]], [[Scout]], [[Soldier]] or [[Demoman]]. The Heavy has a considerable amount of HP and is quite mobile with the Shotgun, so most enemies will be easily surprised. Be sure to avoid standing near [[Dispenser]]s or picking up any ammo crates or dropped weapons until you get the kill.
+
| obtain-text = Intentionally empty your Minigun ammunition by avoiding dropped weapons and ammo packs. The Shotgun is a deceptively powerful weapon; using it will increase your mobility and allow you to chase fleeing enemies more easily. This achievement can be completed with the [[Family Business]] instead.

Take note that being healed by a [[Medic]] or [[Dispenser]] will not work here, and only health that is healed (not the maximum the kit can heal) will count towards this achievement.  
+
| obtain-text = [[Control point (objective)|Control points]] typically have Health and Ammo kits nearby, which you can use to stay healthy. Healing done by a [[Medic]] or a [[Dispenser]] obviously won't count; not having a Medic actually makes this easier.

| obtain-text = This is pretty straight-forward. Since assists count towards dominations, you should be able to earn the Medic (and yourself) a domination by killing the same enemy 4 times without that player at least killing the Medic. This can be easier if the Medic has already gotten prior assists with other teammates, which means that you do not have to personally kill the same enemy 4 times.

| obtain-text = You must kill an enemy by using the Showdown taunt. Unlike other taunt kills, the Showdown has a fair amount of range, so you can use it to kill enemies that are outside of immediate melee range. Furthermore, the taunt can be aimed and will go in the direction of your crosshair, so try to use the range and precise aim afforded to your advantage. Keep in mind that you cannot change the direction in which your taunt fires once the taunt starts, allowing enemies to simply move to the side and avoid death. It may be best to try taunt kill an immobile target, such as a scoped [[Sniper]].
+
| obtain-text = Find an unaware enemy, such as a scoped Sniper, and perform the [[Fists]]' [[High Noon]] taunt on them. Alternatively, strike an enemy's back with the [[Holiday Punch]], and you'll have more than enough time to kill them.

This works best on maps where there are narrow corridors that only allow one person to pass through at a time, such as Stage 1 of [[Dustbowl]]. Be sure to tell your Medic to help block as well.

[[Assist]]s count, so don't worry too much if someone else scores the kill.

Try to keep the element of surprise.  Even if you aren't successful in clearing the enemies in the cart's presence it should still count towards the achievement. Try to use vertical drops and ambush players on the cart from above, which will allow you to spin up your Minigun as you fall.

Incidentally, this achievement also works during [[Sudden Death]], [[Arena]], and [[King of the Hill]], so camping the central point is a viable strategy for scoring you the achievement.

Latest revision as of 17:26, 2 May 2024

Borscht Belt
Borscht Belt
Kill 10 Heavies with The K.G.B.
Difficulty: Medium-Hard
How to obtain: It is rather uncommon to find two Heavies "boxing" each other, unless it is for fun. If possible, ambush an enemy Heavy after acquiring the K.G.B.'s critical boost from another victim. Medieval Mode presents more opportunities for the achievement's required scenario.


Class Struggle
Class Struggle
Work with a friendly Medic to kill an enemy Heavy & Medic pair.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: To win such an encounter, ambush the opposing pair or have your Medic deploy an ÜberCharge. If not ambushing, aim for the enemy Heavy first, then kill the Medic as he flees. To defeat another Heavy, the standard Minigun or Brass Beast is preferred for its raw damage.


Communist Mani-Fisto
Communist Mani-Fisto
Kill an enemy with a critical punch.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: Switch to your melee weapon and hope that you get a Critical strike. The Killing Gloves of Boxing or Buffalo Steak Sandvich can also be used for guaranteed crit-boosts.


Crime and Punishment
Crime and Punishment
Kill 10 enemies carrying your intelligence.
Difficulty: Easy-Medium
How to obtain: The Heavy is rather slow, which means chasing a fleeing enemy is almost impossible. When an enemy player takes your Intelligence, use the Intelligence compass to locate and intercept him. Natascha can be used to slow the runner down, while the Tomislav can ensure that you're able to get some shots off.


Crock Block
Crock Block
Survive a direct hit from a critical rocket.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: While the Heavy has a large pool of health, keep a Medic nearby to stay overhealed and easily survive a critical rocket as you fight on the front lines. Critical rockets from the Rocket Jumper and MONOCULUS will also count toward the achievement.


Division of Labor
Division of Labor
Kill 10 enemies with a Medic assisting you, where neither of you die.
Difficulty: Hard
How to obtain: This achievement coincides with "Big Pharma", a corresponding achievement for the Medic. Be a good Medic buddy; save your Sandvich for him and play conservatively. If possible, keep an ÜberCharge ready for emergencies.


Don't Touch Sandvich
Don't Touch Sandvich
Kill 50 Scouts using Natascha.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: While both the Heavy and the Scout excel at close range, you have more health. Use Natascha's slowdown to keep Scouts pinned down and unable to dodge your fire.


Factory Worker
Factory Worker
Kill 20 enemies while being recharged by a dispenser.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: This achievement partially coincides with "(Not So) Lonely Are the Brave", a corresponding achievement for the Engineer. Ask that a Dispenser be placed near chokepoints to allow you to stay near the front lines. If on the defensive, staying near a Dispenser turns you into a slightly more mobile Sentry Gun. Any kills made while pushing a Payload cart will count toward this achievement, as a payload is a mobile Level 1 Dispenser.


Five Second Plan
Five Second Plan
Kill an enemy in the first 5 seconds after you exit a teleporter.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: Obtaining this achievement will also count toward Riftwalker, a general achievement. Immediately after teleporting, look for any nearby enemies to kill. If you manage to telefrag someone, you will also earn the achievement.


Gorky Parked
Gorky Parked
Kill 25 enemies while you're standing on a control point you own.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: On most maps, action happens most frequently near the control points. Standing on a control point will prevent enemies from capturing it, leaving you free to open fire.


Heavy Industry
Heavy Industry
Fire $200,000 worth of minigun rounds in a single life.
Difficulty: Very Easy
How to obtain: If each cartridge costs $200, you will need to fire 1000 rounds to spend $200,000. This equates to approximately 2 minutes of continuous fire. It may be easier to attempt this achievement during Setup.


Icing on the Cake
Icing on the Cake
Get 20 kills on players that you're dominating.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: If you are dominating a player, you are probably already repeatedly killing them anyway. Be aware that the player you are dominating may decide to single you out for the sole purpose of obtaining Revenge.


Iron Kurtain
Iron Kurtain
Take 1000 points of damage in a single life.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: The Heavy is designed to absorb large amounts of damage, so keep a Medic nearby and stay at the front lines. Lethal damage that exceeds your current health, such as that from a backstab, counts toward the total requirement.


Kollectivization
Kollectivization
Get 1000 assists.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: This achievement will naturally be obtained after a modest amount of time playing as the Heavy. Although the Minigun deals less damage at longer ranges, you can still use it to provide support.


Konspicuous Konsumption
Konspicuous Konsumption
Eat 100 sandviches.
Difficulty: Very Easy
How to obtain: Consume the Sandvich between firefights to stay healthy. The Sandvich does not have to actually heal you, so you could continually eat while at full health. Consuming a Sandvich that was dropped by another Heavy will count towards the achievement.


Krazy Ivan
Krazy Ivan
Kill 50 enemies while both you and your victim are underwater.
Difficulty: Medium-Hard
How to obtain: 2Fort and Well have bodies of water situated reasonably near areas of combat. If an enemy retreats into a body of water, follow them in to finish the job, using the Shotgun if they continue to flee.


Lenin A Hand
Lenin A Hand
Help 5 teammates get revenge on their nemeses.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: If a teammate is being dominated, help him get revenge by targeting his Nemesis.


Marxman
Marxman
Kill 10 enemies in mid-air with the minigun.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: Players commonly jump to avoid fire and reduce damage. Follow them with your crosshair as they do so.


0wn the Means of Production
0wn the Means of Production
Remove 20 stickybombs by killing the Demomen who produced them.
Difficulty: Easy-Medium
How to obtain: At close range, the Heavy dominates the Demoman. Killing a Demoman will automatically remove all of his active Stickybombs.


Party Loyalty
Party Loyalty
Kill 50 enemies within 3 seconds of them attacking your Medic.
Difficulty: Easy-Medium
How to obtain: Because of the healing the Medic provides, he is often the most targeted teammate. Be a good Medic buddy and protect him before he is killed.


Permanent Revolution
Permanent Revolution
Kill 5 enemies without spinning down your gun.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: It is easier to keep your Minigun continuously active when in a defensive scenario where enemies are forced to deal with you, such as when standing on a control point or pushing a Payload cart. Continuously keeping your weapon revved will render you nearly immobile, so equip Natascha if you want to prevent foes from fleeing. Stay near a Dispenser or grab dropped weapons to avoid running out of ammunition.


Photostroika
Photostroika
Provide an enemy with a freezecam shot of you taunting while invulnerable.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: Taunting while under the effects of an ÜberCharge can be rather detrimental to the team effort, so only attempt this after you have killed the last enemy in an area.


Purge
Purge
Kill 15 enemies capturing a control point you own.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: Stay near control points when on the defensive, killing any nearby enemies.


Pushkin the Kart
Pushkin the Kart
Get 50 caps on payload maps.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: As you push the Payload cart, you will steadily accumulate points for capturing it. Use your raw firepower to prevent enemies from mounting an effective defense.


Rasputin
Rasputin
In a single life, get shot, burned, bludgeoned, and receive explosive damage.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: While at the front lines, keep a Medic nearby to stay healthy as you soak up damage. You must be shot by a hitscan weapon, such as the Sniper Rifle or Shotgun, burned by a Pyro, bludgeoned by a melee weapon, and receive explosive damage from the Rocket Launcher or similar weaponry. Items such as the Sandvich and Fists of Steel might make surviving all this incoming damage a bit easier.


Rationing
Rationing
Kill an enemy with your shotgun while you're out of minigun ammo.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: Intentionally empty your Minigun ammunition by avoiding dropped weapons and ammo packs. The Shotgun is a deceptively powerful weapon; using it will increase your mobility and allow you to chase fleeing enemies more easily. This achievement can be completed with the Family Business instead.


Redistribution of Health
Redistribution of Health
Heal 1000 damage with med-kits in a single life.
Difficulty: Medium-Hard
How to obtain: Control points typically have Health and Ammo kits nearby, which you can use to stay healthy. Healing done by a Medic or a Dispenser obviously won't count; not having a Medic actually makes this easier.


Red Oktoberfest
Red Oktoberfest
Earn a domination for a Medic who's healing you.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: A Heavy and Medic working together make a powerful force. You should be able to earn the Medic a Domination as the two of you rampage across the map. Protect the Medic to ensure he does not lose his Domination progress.


Show Trial
Show Trial
Kill an enemy with a taunt.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: Find an unaware enemy, such as a scoped Sniper, and perform the Fists' High Noon taunt on them. Alternatively, strike an enemy's back with the Holiday Punch, and you'll have more than enough time to kill them.


Soviet Block
Soviet Block
While invulnerable and on defense, block an invulnerable enemy Heavy's movement.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: The best way to counter an ÜberCharge is to deploy another ÜberCharge. Prevent the enemy Heavy from advancing through a chokepoint by simply standing in front of him.


Soviet Union
Soviet Union
Get 25 enemy kills where you either assist or are assisted by another Heavy.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: Coordinate with a friendly Heavy to destroy the same targets.


Spyalectical Materialism
Spyalectical Materialism
Kill or assist in killing 10 cloaked Spies.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: When you notice the shimmer of an enemy Spy's cloak, use the Minigun's wide spray of fire to scan the area and keep him from escaping. This is easier in an enclosed area.


Stalin the Kart
Stalin the Kart
Block the enemy from moving the payload cart 25 times.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: The Heavy is rather slow, so it is more difficult to intercept the cart as it moves. Ambush players who are pushing the cart; the element of surprise should give you enough time to rev your Minigun and successfully defend.


Supreme Soviet
Supreme Soviet
Get ÜberCharged 50 times.
Difficulty: Easy
How to obtain: A Heavy makes a prime ÜberCharge candidate. Lead your team's advances during your charged state. Respawning in Mannpower will count toward this achievement.


Vanguard Party
Vanguard Party
Be the first on your team to start capturing a control point in a round.
Difficulty: Medium
How to obtain: As a Heavy, you will take great part in the initial fight for the first control point. Make use of the G.R.U. or Buffalo Steak Sandvich to reach the control point before the other faster classes do. It is possible to obtain this achievement during Sudden Death and in Arena, where capturing points takes less priority over killing enemies.
