What's the Huntsman good for, anyway? Besides pinning ragdolls to walls?

[Volatar]

The huntsman is a very different sniper rifle. It just works quite differently.

I have found that the sniper rifle is good for defense, and the huntsman for offense.

Sniper rifle is 50 damage uncharged and 150 fully charged.
 Headshot is 150 uncharged and 450 fully charged.
 Huntsman 44-58 damage uncharged and 103-137 fully charged.
 153 headshot uncharged and 360 fully charged.

 ...

 So yeah, it just charges quicker.

[fenrif]

Favorite is Heavy, because he's squishy and loves sandwiches. Just like me.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

And just like Heavy, if you piss me off I rip off your arms

Least is Soldier. He's mean.

Heavy is the best mercenary... Sandvich is second best mercenary.

Plus you don't go into that annoying zoom mode that kills your peripheral vision. So it's better in close quarters.

The arrow also somewhat slow moving, so you have to target ahead, Kind of reminds me of playing tribes, so it's some added fun when you can get one of those amazing shots against running people.

[Cheeetar]

Most favourite is spy.
Least favourite is demoman.

This. And the Huntsman has bigger hitboxes or something, so it's more forgiving in regards to getting headshots compared to the unzoomed Sniper Rifle. And the arrows can be lit on fire for added fun.

[SHAD0Wdump]

I quite enjoy popping heads as a sniper, I also like screwing around as a spy.

Targe demo is extraordinarily fun...

I like to burn peeps as a pyro.

I like a bit of battle engie too...

[Myroc]

I don't have a favorite class, I run around with whatever suits me at the moment.

I rarely go spy, but when I do I am pretty effective seeing as I appear to be the only person alive who knows how to switch what weapon you appear to be wielding when disguised. I can't remember how many people I've fooled by switching to the wrench as a disguised engineer.

[Sir Pseudonymous]

Spy. It's always fun, even though I tend to do horribly with it. The occasional streaks of luck where I don't run into any asshole pyros chasing me around the map several times as I keep dead ringering away (true story: I've done laps in arena maps as a burning spy while a pyro chased me the whole damn way, lol dead ringer) are more than enough to make up for it. So's disguising as a friendly medic in arena mode and running around spamming "I am fully charged!"

Unfortunately, my internet is shit at home, so much so that I can't even log onto steam with it. >:| Ten minutes to login then LOL CRASH TO DESKTOP.

[SHAD0Wdump]

Eyelander is so awesome. ;_;

I'm so happy I crafted it.

How do you do that?

By switching weapons, then redisguising as the class you are currently disguised as.

The "Last Disguise" button is good for this. I have it on b, I think that's the default.

[The Doctor]

Yeah.

As well as having fast weapon switch.

Scroll down, press 3-1 (what with the new 3-button disguise).

Then switch to your sapper.

Press b.

Now you're a medic with his medigun out!
