“A firearm that dispenses destructible globs of Goo”
Overview
The Goo Gun is Specialization for the Heavy build that enables powerful environmental manipulation. Activating the ability will equip the Goo Gun, allowing the user to shoot blobs of Goo. It has a maximum capacity of 14 Goo blobs before it needs to be reloaded.
Interactions
- Once the shot Goo blob touches a surface, it sticks to it and expands rapidly to then solidify.
- Blobs of Goo block all projectiles and bullets, and therefore are commonly used as cover.
- Fire quickly destroys Goo, and spreads to adjacent Goo clusters.
- Goo can be used to block the line of sight of turrets, effectively disabling them.
- Blobs of Goo can displace Cashout Stations upon expansion.
Strengths and Weaknesses
- The Goo Gun is a powerful tool for objective control. Creating cover for your team can be a key element of a good defense, and can force opponents to think on their feet. When on the offence, disabling turrets could make the difference between a team wipe and a game-winning Cashout steal.
- Using the Goo Gun leaves the user unable to use a normal weapon while it is equipped. Goo is countered by Fire, which will quickly destroy it and leave the team exposed to attack.
