Welcome back to Team Fortress 2 Weapon of the Week. Today I want to Talk about a Extremely well Balanced Side-Grade to the Stock Wrench, the Jag
The Jag is a Melee Weapon for the Engineer.
The Jag Provides the Engineer to Build his buildings Faster by hitting the Building with this Wrench. It Also Swings faster then Normal.
There are also some Heavy Downsides. 1, there is a Slower Repair Rate, 2 There is a Small Damage Penalty, and 3 a Damage penalty against Buildings.
This Weapon is Really Good for Building and Upgrading Buildings, but bad at Keeping them up, The Damage Penalty means its not so great in combat, and the Damage Penalty against buildings mean it takes 3 hits to Kill a Sapper instead of the normal 2.
These Downsides are not so bad thanks to the Swing Speed bonus, it kinda Makes up for the Slower Repair rate, and 3 hits to Kill a Sapper.
Overall the Jag is Pretty Good, Its Great for getting started on a Next, but Terrible for Keeping the Nest Active for a Long Period of time, Personally I Recommend it for more Aggressive Engineers.
And thats the Jag in a Nutshell, Any other Weapons I Should Talk about? Please tell me Below.
I usually use the Jag, just because it feels so much better in play to me. I don't know why, but the 15% swing speed boost feels more like 50% to me.
