2 or 1 Hazard Area

is there 2 or 1 hazard area in coal town for pyro to airblast? Hecarimz 08:07, 20 August 2012 (PDT)

I've only seen one. dendodge 10:04, 20 August 2012 (PDT)

I've seen, and fallen in, both. One on the left lane, one on the far area of the bomb-site square, too far to airblast easily from the hole itself, though. Sinez 16:49, 21 August 2012 (PDT)

I request Community strategy

Some sections on this page are edited with community tips, could there be a Community Strategy for classes and weapons? TNS 09:12, 23 August 2012 (PDT)

Spy tips

The spy tips say "Whichever disguise you decide to use is largely irrelevant", then goes on to suggest pyro or engy. If disguise doesn't matter, wouldn't scout always be the best option, since it gives a speed boost?

Also, does anybody know if sapped robots give a bonus with the Diamondback? --Itsacon 02:28, 27 August 2012 (PDT)

Scout disguises do NOT give speed boosts; it's actually a way to tell a fake Scout from a real one. As for the Diamondback, I'm not sure. ShadowGlove 05:08, 27 August 2012 (PDT)

I always thought you got a small speed boost, but not the full scout speed. But I just read Disguise again, and you are, obviously, right. We live and learn... --Itsacon 00:07, 29 August 2012 (PDT)

Diamondback does not give any bonus crits from sapped robots. --Piemanmoo 13:03, 30 August 2012 (PDT)

Upgraded Buff Banner

First Soldier Combinaison : "The upgraded banner enables Mini-Crits for the whole team", I could be wrong, but is it really necessary to upgrade Buff Banner for sharing mini-crits for the whole team ? Brucelian 04:39, 30 August 2012 (PDT)

In my experience, it doesn't actually affect your whole team, instead using its regular radius. ==Fax Celestis _talkcontrib^home 12:04, 30 August 2012 (PDT)

But the only upgrade which exists for the Buff Banner just increase the buff duration.Brucelian 12:43, 30 August 2012 (PDT)

Right. Does that say anything about increased radius? No. ==Fax Celestis _talkcontrib^home 16:28, 30 August 2012 (PDT)

As far as I'm aware, there was at launch an option to upgrade the Banner to affect the whole team, but it was swiftly removed. I could be wrong, but the point is that no such option exists now. This tip should be removed. ==Reginald Cuftbert 11:14, 23 Septemper 2012 (PDT)

Bot Symbols

We need to add the symbols for the different bots next to their titles. I'd do it myself but it's late and I don't know where to find them. Any help either way would be appreciated. Guybrush20X6 16:34, 11 November 2012 (PST)
