One more time… “Protect your engies!”

[The Spanish Inquisition]

What is the penalty again for switching uber targets while mid-uber?

The rate that uber drains with one person is: 12.5% per second, this means it lasts 8 seconds base. This is where it gets interesting. After you stop healing someone they stay in the uber state for 1.5 seconds. You can switch to another person during this time and for every person in the uber state you will drain at an advanced rate. Here is a table showing the rates:

Uber 1 person: 12.5% uber/s = 8 seconds of uber

Uber 2 people: 20% uber/s = 5 seconds of uber

Uber 3 people: 25% uber/s = 4 seconds of uber

Uber 4 people: 31.25% uber/s = 3.2 seconds of uber

The higher rate is only while you have multiple people in the uber state. So, flashing someone makes you drain at a higher rate for 1.5 seconds. I hope this answers your question Spanish.

Thanks, I knew there were hard numbers somewhere. Sorry for jacking the thread.

I love to crop some engie ass with my disciplinary action, just ask Eggers.

About your medical duties when working with an Engie, I have a saying. "When the sentry is a beepin', it's the Engie you should be a peepin'" This is boatloads more important since they've nerfed dispensers (they don't "hold" an overheal anymore). When you hear the gun about to fire, heal the Engie.

In regards to ubering; be patient, do not pop it on the Engie- use it on a friendly initially but be ready to flash him. When Engies are taking fire from incoming uber I usually flash them at 50% health, instead of a much lower level. I feel it let's them know their Medic is watching them, and gives them confidence to hang in there and keep whacking at the sentry.

You did some great Engie ass-croppin during TVC. While they had tele exits in hand. Good stuff.
