Merge with Medic taunts article

I think this article should be deleted or merged with the medic taunts article. There's no reason to have so much information on a generic taunt that heals you for 10HP, especially now that the Medic has a real kill taunt. Thoughts? Steviestar3 03:59, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Well, I believe there's simply a page for any taunt with unique properties so that they are easier to find when new people are confused as to what its purpose is. We can revisit this idea after then Engy update, because it may then become the ONLY new non-kill-taunt. -- Firestorm 04:49, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

It's the only taunt that heals. I think that makes it special enough to deserve its own page, even more so than the numerous taunts that kill (who have their own page as well) — WindPower 04:52, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Today I have noticed some interesting facts that is not given here. For example, that it helps you obtain achievements and some statistics bugs. Or features? El Desperado 10:27, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Medic Oktoberfest Voice Line ReAddition

The latest update has readded the voice line to the Oktoberfest taunt, can anybody besides me test this and confirm this? Noskap 04:07, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

I tested and couldn't make him say the line. Perhaps a server mod? —Moussekateer·talk 04:08, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

I'm in a listen server, with no mods, running through my TF2 client, and he says the line. Maybe I'm losing it. Noskap 04:09, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

Anybody else? Try running a local server and taunting with the Kritzkrieg. If this is only me, I'm curious as to why the latest update did this just to my client. Noskap 04:13, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

I tried again and couldn't reproduce this. I also checked the patch diffs and there seems to be nothing related to this. —Moussekateer·talk 17:48, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

Healing amount?

Does anyone know exactly HOW much the taunt heals? Hawkshadow741 16:29, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

Uhm. It's in the section Healing and function times? --CruelCow ^(talk) 16:42, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

I think it heals 10. Tested. SandeProElite 05:24, 30 June 2011 (PDT)

Update History

It seems awkwardly worded. The taunt was added to the game with that patch. While the animations were always in the game, it wasn't until that patch, that the actual taunt was applied. Right now, the update news seems to imply that the taunt was always around and just modified during that update. There must be a better way to write the update news.

Video

I don't know how to add videos to this wiki, so here's a link to a video with the Oktoberfest taunt (although he does a regular taunt twice before doing the Oktoberfest one) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tymWVWPUvoE --PyroGothNerd (talk) 14:15, 25 December 2013 (PST)

The video once again isn't reallyy needed. Ashes (talk) 15:58, 25 December 2013 (PST)

It heals 10 hp not 11

I've used it few times and it heals 10 hp every time BloxxingBlocks (talk) 07:10, 24 October 2015 (PDT)

Have you ever turned off medic's health regen and tried? Darkid (Talk | Contribs) 08:58, 24 October 2015 (PDT)

I think it depends on the OS the server runs: Windows and Linux rounds numbers differently. So you are supposed to get 10 hp back, but on a Windows server you get 11hp. The scoreboard shows the correct value (because it might use the same rounding instruction as linux), but you get an extra hp.
