For those of you that think pyro

Is just a "fun" class that can't do anything... these are for you. I believe pyros are the most underestimated class in TFC. The first pic I only capped once, the second, i can't remember.. heh-Oh, btw, i got the daily award today too.. WOOT ME!

ive never underestimated a pyro...you will always find me runnin' the opposite direction of one....or, if forced to, frag 'em

but honestly, the pyro is a class ive been meanin' to learn more about...for starters...how do you napalm jump?

That's nothing Whyb. I have gone 112 and 4 with Pyro on TVI. Of course, this is late at night when all the regulars are asleep

but that doesn't matter. Avanti is a great class for Pyro, and you are right, the class is very underestimated. There is no reason someone can't be very competetive as a Pyro.

I love hanging out behind respawn on Avanti. Once you kill someone there, they keep coming back for you. You can kill them over and over without having to worry about being killed in someone elses crossfire. You can also steal their nades, but don't attack anyone in Spawn.

Keep burning the place up Whyb, you put a good name to the Pyro class. Now for another challenge, try being a good Pyro against another Pyro

Even the fishy underestimates the Pyro when it comes to dueling his likeness.

It's no surprise that Whybkuul likes a flaming class

Whyb - Napalm grenades are excellent at taking down sg's. If you use enough of them it'll kill the engy hammering away at it then the sg as well.

Don't be so mean to the engies!

Monk · Posted: Tue May 28, 2002 1:07 pm Post subject:

The napalm grenade is one of the best anti SG weapons. Fire quickly kills the SG, and as Mike said, it will kill the engie if he tries to save his SG. If you can get out of range of the SG, it is good to keep harassing it with the IC because it will keep the engi busy and kill him slowly. Usually, you force the engi to choose between himself and the SG by continually flaming it. Just stay out of range of the SG and you should be fine.

One thing that takes a lot of skill is killing the SG with the Flamethrower. If you can circle the SG fast enough, it is possible to kill it. Any time you apply flames to the SG you take off a lot of health, so just keep burning it.

I play pyro in badlands on weekends. I like turning the enemy flagroom into a raging inferno. Pyro is a good class, but when people don't use grenades and run around like lunatics, they are easy to kill, bringing the usual thought of pyros to a substandard class. I've seen some very good pyros on other servers :/ As for napalm grenade jumping, it takes timing just like everything else. But you can get quite the velocity off one. I was skimming (what bunnyhopping used to be) off them in a lan game (i have a plugin that reenables it), and it's really fun.

Whyb you flame boy! But you are good at the class I got to admit. The good thing about flamers are those rockets man. I remember being in the middle of like five guys, and whyb shot a single rocket and all of us were rolling on the ground. Pyro can pwn if you use it correctly. Just like Monk, but too bad he is going away

If they made the class a lot stronger I would use it. It just takes a long time to kill the stronger classes though.
