(if you're monstrously good, soldiers and demomen may be hesitant to attack you).

With competent soldiers and demomen, this is always the case. They know how to fire their rockets off at rates that trip you up, so unless you have the reflexes to dodge a bullet and the ping to see a rocket within the half-frame it takes to hit you at close rnage you rely on 'feeling' when the opponent will fire a rocket at you.

 Also, Buff Banner only boosts sentries when the banner influences the engineer. Just on the sentry does nothing. You can boost an engineer in the spawn who has a snetry out there and the sentry will recieve the boost.

I mean hesitant to engage you at all; good soldiers will usually pull their shotty (afterburn improvement made Equalizer no longer an automatic win vs. Pyros) and good demomen will use stickies if they have the space.

 I dunno. A good pyro could avoid the shotgun blasts by using the flamethrower as a sort of smoke screen, moving and flaming in such a way as to avoid being seen and predicted. At close range the flamethrower can wreck you. Soldiers that can completely prevent you from airblasting reliably, on the other hand, are the real threat.

 Also, pyros that can reflect flares. What the hell?

[Pandarsenic]

Fire screen doesn't really work 'cause you just aim above the legs or into the middle of the fire. It's really not that difficult to deal with.

Pyros that reflect flares/huntsman arrows/etc. are insane, but hitting with them is easy 'cause their hit areas are the size of a large truck.

[Jakkarra]

I consistently reflect hunstman arrows.

Y'know what's most fun? Airblasting a sniper JUST as he throws his Jarate to put himself out, he kills HIMSELF with his own piss and the afterburn.

I have done that twice, and both times it was satisfying.

And you get the crits too

Also, pyros that can reflect flares. What the hell?

Sending flares back and forth is all people do in the beginning of a round of Dodgeball, especially before players can move (Dodgeball maps are open). Reflecting flares is not too hard to get used to doing. Reflecting Huntsman arrows is more difficult, though.

[Jakkarra]

I wouldnt say so, you just need to get the timing down.

[Pandarsenic]

Another matter is huntsman arrows don't glow but flares do. I think that, visually speaking, that makes a difference.

Oooooooooo.
Fancy/Nasty day 4.

And how do the Fancy vs Nasty things work?
I just download it and what.

[fenrif]

The heavy metal gloves look cool.

Is there any reason why these fancy/nasty things aren't in the community items thing? Seems like this is pretty much exactly what that system was set up for... I wouldn't mind using them, but I don't really wanna replace any of my other stuff.

[Duke 2.0]

 I think they are just skins. I think.

I think they are just skins. I think.

There's some new items being dropped, including hats. Nobody knows what they actually are since they haven't got names, but we know they exist. They're probably going to be released later today. The same thing happened when the first Community weapons were added.

Dropped?
As in, getting rid of?
