TF2: Pyro next to get achievements

I've found it can be a useful class at some points defending on the goldrush map as its good for noob-charging the people lurking round the cart.

PK!
 
I love the pyro and have enjoyed many a clan-fueled "PYRO RUSH!" on dustbowl!

I just love the panic that onsets when you get the flames roaring and charge towards people - hillarious! :D

Pyro was good for a laugh.. what with its range being a joke though it was hard to be any more than a bit of fun though

I gave up before the updates, i would hope this has since changed... but dont think ill be comin back to the game despite liking both the medic and the pyro

The pyro was buffed up fairly soon after the game was released.It's my second favourite class behind soldier and is just as powerful/useful in its own right as other classes. Give it another try.
 
I have to say that the pyro is far from underpowered. I find it very easy to get multiple kills per spawn as a pyro, often topping the leader board. You just have to take advantage of your class. Concentrate on closing the ground before the enemy see you. Use corners and less travelled routes. Try and circle round behind the enemy.

PS. Pyro is brutal on Goldrush for clearing the area around the cart! Everyone all bunched up, ready for a BBQ. :p

tru dat :)

I'm pretty much always in the top three, and I'm playing pyro only atm..

I'm looking forward to the pyro acheivements, but not to the fire spam.. mostly because no-one will get DoT damage from my flames :(
 
i can easily get 4+ kills with the soldier a round no problem.. without being too big headed one of the reasons i have given up tf2 is the large percentage of the community offer no challenge at all and i come top pretty much every round

with this in mind i still come top with the pyro, u just have to work a lot harder than u would if u were a soldier! :)

its all about the crits really, if u get a couple of seconds of crits even heavies drop in an instant

their normal damage isn't that bad either really i just feel they move waay too slowly and can be kited too easily.. so either a speed or range buff would be nice i think

I use the Pyro a good bit and I think he is slightly underpowered. The increased speed helps but he's just too easy to juggle with Soldiers, out-range with Scouts, Snipers, HWG, sentries now also with Medics etc. How many clan matches feature a Pyro?

I think Valve recognise he is just slightly underpowered and that's why their giving him achievements next. He's not the least-played class, as was the case with the Medic.
