- In this video I detail the differences between a Level Two and a Level Three sentry gun, including the situational advantages of fully upgrading to Level Three or deciding to hold back with a Level Two to gain a specific advantage. You might be surprised to learn some of the the stats of the Engineer's most famous building!

*Mini Sentry*
Engineer if you say so
Agreed
Well I can't question the engineer
Level 1 best

This video reminds me of the time I was on this 2fort server, and there was this kid playing engineer. He had a level 2 sentry, and everyone was screaming at him to upgrade it, but he wouldn’t because he said he liked the way it looked.
Emvee That kid had 800 iq. He was simply outplaying the other team.
Nice
The mad man
The look is the most important
One of them could have went Engie for a moment to go upgrade it themselves.
Important point: splash damage
Corner peeking a sentry becomes much harder against a level 3, as a rocket can easily kill you while behind the corner
It's not splash damage, it's the huge hitbox of rockets.
you dodge rockets once, then can cornerpick safely for few more seconds
@@user-25352 yeah, but then you have given the engi extra time to repair his sentry or for someone else to come along and kill you.
@@user-25352 better then NO corner peaking protection
there have been many times where i've wrangled a sentry and rocket'd someone that was behind a corner
When I usually play on 2fort I tend to build a lvl 2 sentry behind the desk in the intel room.
Why? You may ask, well it’s all thanks to the intelligence, as it has no hit box.
So the enemy will receive bullets from your sentry not knowing from where they come from.

I don’t use the level three for the rockets, I use it for the extra health your sentry gets.
1 time I used a lvl 3 a spy sapped it and I removed the sapper just as the sentry was at 20 hp
If I used lvl 2 I’m pretty sure it woulda died
He said that too
@@yingames275 Yeah it would’ve, lvl 3 is +36 health so lvl 2 obviously would’ve died.
Same
Yeah and the rockets are a nice plus. Why not some extra damage from the rockets if you're defending? Rockets are effective against peeking enemies.
Something that's not often talked about but can make a huge difference is that each level of a sentry increases its turret turn speed as well, which means it can more effectively switch targets and cover multiple directions. A Pyro could run tight circles around a level 1 and never get shot at, and a Scout can do that against a level 2, but not against a level 3. That isn't even on the wiki, but it is an important stat that changes and I'm surprised it's not listed anywhere since AFAIK everyone knows it.
nuh uh
no one knows this lol
Does that include the turning speed when it isn't actively in a fight?
you forgot one thing: sentry rockets can be airblasted, meaning level 3's are easier to destroy for a pyro. much, MUCH easier.
edit: so uhh this got controversial. Let me explain:
I said EASIER, not EASY.
Yep
I would always check if there a pyro before maxing it
@@carsonyeohkaisheng7542 I usually also ask if the pyro knows the meaning of mouse2.
The problem is I’m so bad at TF2 and I have so much lag that it’s impossible for me to air blast basically anything.
@@gameniscord_5167 oof
The pyro would be dead by the time it can airblast 2 rockets, also the engineer would keep on bapping his sentry
So basically....
Lvl 2 for offensive (BLU) Engie, Lvl 3 for defensive (RED) Engie.
why would you have LVL 2 on offence?

@@flameguy8025 I think that may get patched very soon

@@Niiue good point, still going to get you banned on comp
I like how the sentry shoots the whole casing as well. That’s got to be at least 35% more bullet per bullet
i get that reverence
My two cents is that having a level 3 is very important for a truly defensive position that forces players into close quarters, ideally in an elevated platform.
The rocket salvo isn't very fast reaching, BUT it "sprinkles" that little bit of additional damage that either kills surprised players or dissuades players who wish to push past it.
A level two sentry will just as quickly deal with about 6 of the other classes, but the classes to truly do pose a serious threat to your sentry are the Soldier, Demo, and in certain situations, the Heavy, and that's where the rocket salvo comes in handy, since these classes are slower than most others, and the rockets have a higher chance of splashing damage on them.
Of course, if a good pyro can reflect those rockets it becomes dangerous even to the engineer himself, but that's not common, and usually it will only hit if you are in a really bad position.
So I'll put it like this: Level 2's can be justified if the enemy team lacks any sort of competent soldiers or demos that could destroy your sentry.

I am actually more intimidated by a level 2 since if it has been like that for a long period of time, it usually means the engineer is up to something else, something far more damgerous as he can either have left it to place a sneaky teleporter behind my own team or be a horrifying version of the battle engineer that mows down entire teams with random level 2's

It seems as though the level 3 sentry’s rockets aren’t meant to kill people directly so much as to incentivize them to move in certain ways. Tracking becomes easier when the rockets are flying, as for that moment you just have to predict what direction they’ll move to dodge the rockets, so you can take advantage of that while fighting alongside a level 3. Actually hitting them is a very juicy cherry on top.

If you are moving a gun, upgrade it to lvl 2 and put another 150-175 metal into it, then move that gear up. That way you can get the best of both worlds.
Gun starts fireing quicker and you can finish the upgrade at your discretion with one or two swings
But it will upgrade while you are repairing it in combat. I think that's a horrible idea

0:33 oh god this is already to complex
I believe it’s important to note how Pyro can take advantage of level 3 sentry rockets, killing the engineer in one hit, or at least leaving him extremely vulnerable to your teammates, as well as damaging the sentry a whole lot as well.
I didn't even realize this was something debatable. I always figured highest level = best result. I might start leaving a gun at level 2 more often when on offense or while I'm trying to get a nest up. The extra HP is important when you're fully set up, so I see no point in leaving it at level 2 if you have everything else upgraded, aren't moving, and have 200 metal to spend, but I can see situations where the build speed and extra metal for my teleporter might be more beneficial.
👍😃👌
+Uncle Dane get your emojis outta here and back to facebook
+Kevin (Emayerage) Level 2 is a requirement in my book for any form of nest, but lvl 3 is a wait thing most of the time unless your playing disposable sentry(was more common before gunslinger). I usually get the 3, then ensure dispensers up to at least 2 before worry about lvl 3 gun. Also the size thing, lvl 2 lets it peek over most things so its good for surprise buttsechings folks with odd placements ;).

@Poe Soul yeah and half life 2 episode 2 is from like 2007 or something lol
@@terri4994 I was one year old when that happened
no wonder they were fucking annoying
fucking hated those things
Same thing for the combine sniper's
As a Pyro main, a level 3 sentry is essentially strapping a bomb to it.
Based on my experience if the sentry and enemy player are in a small or somewhat enclosed space then the rockets will hit the enemy player fairly consistently.
Question about the larger hitbox: does it matter when:
a) Sentries are stationary, since I always imagined that hitbox size matters primarily when dodging, which requires mobility
b) The sentry has no "vulnerable" hitboxes, like a head which snipers can exploit
Incog Elbowtross yes and no. its simply allowing a soldier, scout, whatever to more consistently hit it. now becuase its a stationary target, sure, but in the middle of a fight one or two more bullets from a heavy could decide everything.
you can peek the ramp for final cap badwater
you can peek final cap rock on dustbowl
and many more!
a scout can do more damage from longer ranges because of the bigger hitbox but, let's be honest, if a scount is close enough to do max damage to a sentry he won't be there for much longer
Hitboxes matter. smaller one requires more skill to damage. and technically the engie is the sentry's weakspot. It's a team based objective game. everyone has a role.
there’s a spot in the intel room on 2fort where a level 2 sentry is practically invisible while shooting but a level 3 can be easily peeked
It's also worth noting that even though the firing speed for the Level 2 and Level 3 sentries are exactly the same, the Level 3 has a noticeable increase in the bullet firing *sound* that it makes, so it can be a bit deceiving. Interesting stuff. Or at least I think so. Hope ya enjoyed. ;)

It's also worth noting that that the sentry causes knock back with its bullets and because of this the sentry's rockets can land a liiiiiiittle reliably when the opponent is grounded, because now the sentry is pushing them in a *straight* line away meaning the opponent is now moving in the same direction the rockets are traveling, still not reliable, but it wasn't covered in this video because the medic was invincible in the demonstration. Food for thought
Peter The Homie that that
Totally wrong, the bullets add a velocity perpendicular to the turret but doesn't modify the other 2 axis velocity so, being pushed back makes it even harder to hit the rockets.

I can't believe this video was made 6 years ago. Time just flows so rapidly
I tend to use level 2 more than level 3 because, atleast in my experience, if you're the only engie and you've got a sentry set up, the enemy team will work together destroy it eventually, no matter how good the placement is. It's usually advisable to move your sentry every few kills, just to keep them unaware of it's position, but that's hard with how long a level 3 takes to build. A level 2 with the jag equipped goes up pretty damn fast, so I like to be able to pack up and move as much as possible, as quick as possible, and for as cheap as possible. The lvl3's rockets and extra health just dont stack up to these other benefits imo.

Level 2 looks cooler. Expect Level 3's better. Don't argue with me this is the only thing i'll post.
I just realized that in the intro, there's a snow-like crunch when Dane puts the toolbox thingy down.
I dont kniw why I'm watching this, I dont even play this game and yet I'm entertained by this video
I look at it like this: In defensive situations a lvl 3 is required while on offense a lvl 2 is good enough.
#minisentrymasterrace
Not really, in offence a Gunslinger is required
ShadowOfAres No, a gunslinger isn't 'required' for offense. It's merely a supplement for bigger sentries. Also, mini sentries aren't as effective at holding the line if the defending team tries to make a push.
I meant in general, you are much more likely to use the gunslinger offensively rather than any other wrench because the extra setup speed of the mini sentry is what your team really needs to quickly get into an area and eliminate all enemies, remember leveled sentries are used for area denail, to prevent the other team from accessing an area, not for rushing and clearing enemy territory.
You may have forgotten that a good and clever Pyro can deflect level 3 rockets and possibly kill the engineer if he's there, since they will do 135 damage on direct hit. All you have to do is have a health kit around or a medic, and you can peek around the edge and wait for it to shoot a rocket.
+BonziBUDDY I thought about talking about this, but I've only seen that happen like 5 times in my entire life. It's certainly not a valid reason to keep your sentry at Level 2, imo.
+Uncle Dane Well I suppose it's pretty hard to get the distance right to not be blown up instantly but for the rocket to actually reach you in less than a second and a half . . .
+natchu96 I tried this but it is hard to trigger the rockets without getting killed. Then if the engineer is hiding behind the sentry you have to step out again
+Uncle Dane it's actually really easy to do idk why pyros don't do that.
I agree with Dane. As a pyro, Ive only managed to reflect the rockets a few times, and all of those times were last ditch efforts that horribly failed due to the sentry's bullets.

The ad I got before this was for "teacher simulator" and it had a kid give you a paper with USA, France and Russia on it.
You put a checkmark on USA and Russia. Put an X on France.

Im a spy main yet I’m here watching your content and why do I enjoy it?
Level 2 = better. The reason is that level 3 fires rockets or explosive projectiles of which the enemy pyro can reflect back at the sentry or the engi or the engis team so there's that
Level one does a stack of damage per second

If I’m planning on building a sentry one place and immediately relocating it to somewhere else, I like to upgrade a sentry to level 2 and put 175 metal into upgrading it, that way if I need to put the sentry down to defend myself it or am rushed to put it down it can start working faster, but I can easily upgrade it with a single swing of the wrench if everything goes as planned
I wish we had a pda or wrench that could limit sentry level to two, would be good for offense or revengineering packing some power but still being replaceable somewhat
a big upsidee for the lvl 3 when being put down is that when it finishes the animations for lvl 2, it will auto lock onto a target, meaning it doesnt have to wait anytime after becoming lvl 3 to start shooting, you can tell it has autolocked because in the time after the lvl 2 animations finish and level 3 begin, you'll hear the sound of a sentry gun that has no ammo shooting
Dane: Purple where is your defence!?
Purple: I am the defence!
People who have seen “how it feels to play engineer” will get this
Meanwhile on lazy purple servers "someone kill the Uncle Dane wannabe!"
0:20 holy moly, that almost sounded like idubbz
no way
It was actually, Uncle Dane is friends with idubbz.
Holy doody, it does sound like Idubbz
In short:
Level 1 Sentry: Fast to build, low damage
Level 2 Sentry: Fast to build, high damage, perfect for assualt
Level 3 Sentry: Slow to build, huge damage, perfect for defending
