Revision as of 21:31, 3 October 2010
I'm going to start going through this page and rewriting it as more of coherent guide than a list of bullet points. Each section will be based on a different style of play, as opposed to the current system where it simply lists bits of strategies based around the individual weapons and unlocks. I'm going to try and use as much content from the current bulleted version of the article. If there are any disagreements, discuss them here. I think this will be a great improvement to tf2wiki!

A new Pyro combination. But one thing I must ask.
Before I ask, the Degreaser's fast weapon-switch ability makes it a useful weapon with the Axtinguisher, so right off the bat, we know Degreaser and Axtinguisher will be in the combination. However, what secondary should be in the combination: Shotgun or Flare Gun?
For Shotgun, you still have the ability to burn with the Degreaser, it is a good way to finish off the enemy (if he was being overhealed or is a Soldier/Heavy), and can be used in water. So you can simply puff, airblast, and quickly use the Axtinguisher, then finish off with the Shotgun if the enemy in question is not already dead (or Puff -> Airblast -> Shotgun -> Axtinguish).
For Flare Gun, there are two ways to burn, has a higher damage output (Puff -> Airblast -> Flare -> Axtinguish for around 236 damage at a quick time, thanks to quick switching), and alone it can shoot faraway. Which should be chosen? Or, should there just be two more combinations? AbeX300 20:42, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- Both loadouts have their advantages and disadvantages. Like you said, the shotgun enables more short-range burst damage, but the flares allow for combats at longer ranges. Using one or the other boils down to your personal preference and/or playstyle. And if you have an odd-leveled weapons :P - Mistah Phoenix 20:48, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- Right, so I suppose two combinations are to be created. :D Also, I forgot to mention that the Shotgun is more effective against other Pyros. Then again, the Axtinguisher isn't effective either way against Pyros. AbeX300 21:31, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
