MvM Loadouts

Ok, so this is a bit of a different game, what are your MvM loadouts and why?

Ok, I'll start, I haven't played with a power container yet so this doesn't have that in this write up.

Medic:
My Loadout for Medic right now in MvM is going to be Crossbow/Medigun/Amputator, I haven't seen the upgrades for the Ubersaw but unless they're like you get 100% uber for hitting someone I don't think it would be worth it. In my round that I played, as Medic you probably won't be using weapons very much, with the sheer amount of robots that come in you're probably going to want to stay back from the fighting to stay alive which rules out using the ubersaw alot to build uber. With how fast you end up building uber the Vita Saw isn't really worth it as you shouldn't be dying enough for it to be a factor other than -10 health. The Head whatever it's name is could be useful but I think the extra 1 health per second of the Crossbow/Amputator set is more useful usually. As for the Medigun that's all personal preference, but I prefer the Uber in most cases and with the full upgrade the uber lasts forever, I haven't used it yet but I assume the sharing of the powers will let me uber and crit at the same time which will be cool.

Im running my normal loadout, later in a match once the rocket launcher is upgraded alot might be worth it to swap off shotgun to buff banner, once reload speed is buffed you wont be forced to use your shotgun. Its interesting to run whatever you want because the upgrades can really make up for the weaknesses of any weapon..

Its great that you can sell back some upgrades if you want to go a different route with them or switch classes. It helps to know whats coming your way. Pyro if you need to reflect or blow back enemies or tank if you have a bunch of pyros, engie if its scouts... stuff like that. As far as loadouts go, it all differs on whats coming our way and what my team is rocking.

I want to play a round tonight were I just run the Righteous Bison, no ammo worries, can get increased all kinds of stuff and it should hit the tank multiple times... might be able to mow down groups to cause they all run so close together.

Damn, I haven't even played yet and y'all are optimizing load-outs.

Is there use for a brass beast heavy?

Sure, lots of choke points and you can buff your health and fire rate out like crazy. If your really wanted to you could increase your movement speed. I wonder how well a natasha heavy would work... No one uses it that much cause you normaly loose but the bots arnt the most accurate or prepared, could be interesting to see its effects on bots. Only thing Brass Beast would have to worry bout are the crit soldiers.

I stood on top of a tank and unloaded 600 rounds into it with a Brass Beast. So yes.... there definitely is.

Hitman's Heatmaker is awesome, once you build the charge you never have to unscope. Ever. With upgrades it also probably has one of if not the highest DPS in the game against giants, almost 1000 damage a second.
