While playing as Sparks I felt like her second pistol should be removed because nobody is going to use it while her medi-gun should become her primary since it does relatively good damage.
Current loadout:
Machine pistol
Semi-auto pistol
Knife
Medi-packs
Medi-gun
Suggested Loadout:
Medi-gun
Semi-auto pistol
Knife
Medi-packs
It’s just intended to clean up the loadout and make it less confusing.
I have to disagree. I’ve been loving Sparks and constantly use both her Pistols, usually winning me a gunfight.
I love Sparks, she’s my favorite medic, but her primary needs to change, she can’t fight anyone Meduim to close Range, she needs an SMG or a Shotgun. I hate it when an Aura can fight off a Rhino but Sparks gets destroyed by another Medic
SMG/Shotgun
Pistol/Machine pistol
Knife
Med kit
REVIVR

Yeah why not just make her the best merc ever!
It seems that people don’t get that her medi-gun is a ful fledge no-scope sniper rifle dealing tons of damage. She doesn’t need another main weapon, that would overpower her. I’m saying her main weapon is a sniper/healing gun, her pistol is either the machine pistol or semi-auto, and then her knife and medpacks.
If your using her REVIVR as a sniper rifle then your doing something wrong. Its meant to Revive, while yes it can do a lot of damage if you charge for a bit, but charging it for that long drains your battery and looking at the pace of the game, you can’t hit people that are jumping everywere, and if you do hold the charge for the gun waiting for the enemy to get done moving, then half the time your weapon has near to no charge for reviving or you over heated it.
She is the weakest out of all the other Medics:
Sawbonez Med Packs are insanely strong with the added 30 health compared to other Medics
Aura’s healing station can hold a postion with ease
Sparks medic packs are decent, all her weapons scream “I CAN’T DEFEND MYSELF!”
And Phoenix the Medic they are working on has 100 health and he can revive himself
If she gets rushed, she dead, and with Recons killing her every chance they get, it just becomes harder for her to survive in the backline.
What are Rhino’s and Nader’s main weapons? A Grenade Launcher and a Minigun. Hmm, but they get a shotgun and an SMG just in case they get in a bad situation without their special weapon, What does Sparks get, 2 secondaries.
The obvious trade-off is her long range revive. She doesn’t get a powerful main. Fini.
Uhm Sparks is a Sniper/Medic hybrid, she is ment to stay at long distances/out of sight. Her reviver deals 65/130 on a full charge that is a onehit headshot for everything below Fragger. It is a sniper rifle and arguable her primary weapon. Granted it is harder to use and has quite a few drawbacks compared to Vassilis rifles but guess what, he doesn’t have the ability to revive and refill HP.
So stay at longrange. If you find yourself in closecombat you got 3 options.
She got enough firepower as is. She simply isn’t designed for the engagements you are bringing her into.

What do you not get about her medi-gun being an infinite ammo sniper rifle that can also long range revive allies?
