Introduction
MvM is TF2’s co-op game mode where you and 5 other people all work together to defend manco. from robots. Each wave you survive you get more and more money and are able to buy upgrades to help yourself in the ever increasingly difficult rounds.
And today I will be telling you the best weapons for each class and how to more effectively use them.
Now not all weapons are created equally in MvM, some weapons that are good in casual like the Tomislav are useless in MvM whereas a weapon like the Brass Beast that is useless in casual is probably the best minigun in MvM(who needs a silent spin up and faster spin-up time when you can have more base damage).
Scout
Primaries:
Force-A-Nature
Great for knocking robots back. When using the weapon you should really use it to knock robots back that are in the way of you collecting your money.
Soda Popper
More offensive than the Force-A-Nature. Great for escaping a horde of robots with the charge-up multi-jump ability.
Secondaries:
Mad Milk
Good for getting health for you and your team in a pinch. Throw the Mad Milk into a big horde of robots when your Medic is having a hard time keeping everyone healed up.
Bonk! Atomic Punch
Good for running into a horde and collecting all the money. When there is a lot of money on the floor and you know you will die if you try to pick it up drink the Bonk! and your good to go.
Melee:
Fan-O-War
When you hit a robot with the Fan-O-War the robot takes mini-crits for every shot after for a few seconds. Not much more to say.
Soldier
Primary:
Black Box
Every robot you hit you heal 15 damage which can save you in a pinch. I would recommend upgrading the clip size to make up for the lost DPS.
Secondary:
Buff Banner
The mini-crits this grants when fully charged are a godsend. I would recommend upgrading the Buff Banner duration time and then playing more of a supporting role around your medic and heavy so you can charge your banner up and give your heavy mini-crits.
Melee:
The Escape Plan
Run fast when on low health, good for a quick getaway. I would upgrade swing speed to the max on tank rounds because it can deal good and consistent damage.
The Equalizer
Do more damage when on low health, could save your life against those pesky scouts. I would upgrade swing speed to the max on tank rounds because it can deal good and consistent damage.
Pyro
Primaries:
Stock Flamethrower
Does good consistent DPS and the air blasts are useful against crit soldier and demoman rounds. I would recommend maxing out the ammo capacity.
Phlog
Does better DPS than the Stock Flamethrower but it is a bit less consistent (have to charge it up to get maximum DPS). Can’t airblast so I would recommend upgrading your explosive resistance on your Pyro.
Secondary:
The Gas Passer
The first upgrade you should buy as pyro is the explosive Gas Passer upgrade. I would throw it at big hordes of robots as it can kill them all or do massive damage.
Melee:
The Power Jack
As Pyro you won’t really use melee as your Flamethrowers are close range. The Power Jack is good as it allows the Pyro to run faster and heal health on kill.
Demoman
Primaries:
Grenade Launcher / Iron Bomber
These two are pretty much the same, just use them in the same way as you would in casual. Not much more to say really.
Secondary:
Scottish Resistance
The best weapon for taking out the most robots in a single click. Just before a wave starts either get kritzed by a Medic or use a kritz-canteen then place down all 14 stickies for maximum damage.
Melee:
Stock
Not much to say tbh.
Eyelander
A bit riskier than the other options for melee but if you can take out a couple of low health robots you can get a nice health bonus.
The Scotsman’s Scullcutter
Deals more damage at the expense of movement speed. Use as a last resort.
Heavy
Primaries
The Brass Beast
Great for taking out robots just don’t rev down. I recommend upgrading rev speed.
The Natasha
Good for slowing down Scout robots going for the bomb and big robots. Just upgrade the damage on it.
Secondaries
The Stock Shotgun
Good backup for when your minigun runs out of ammo
Melee
The Gloves Of Running Urgency
Can run to get ammo faster or run-up to the front lines faster
Engineer
Primary
The Rescue Ranger
This is an essential weapon for Engineers in MvM. There is no way you can survive without the Rescue Ranger. When the sentry buster runs over to your sentry and starts to explode press Mouse 2 on the Sentry to pull it away.
Secondary
The Wrangler
The Wrangler is so good against Soldier and Demomen because of the shield that absorbs 66% of damage not to mention that using The Wrangler increases the sentries firing.
Melee
The Stock Wrench
Better than the Jag for tanking damage.
Medic
Primary
The Blutsauger
The Crusaders Crossbow is kind of useless when you can just upgrade your miniguns healing speed. With The Blutsauger you can shoot into a horde of robots to get some health back.
Secondary
Kritzkreig
The Kritzkreig is so much better than the medigun. Why just become invulnerable when you can get an extremely high DPS. You can also just buy an ubercharge canteen and then pair it with the Kritzkreig and take out anything.
Melee
Uber Saw
You shouldn’t really be actively pulling out the Uber saw to get ubercharge but if there is a sentry buster walking past you can get a few swings in to get your ubercharge back.
Sniper
Primary
The Hitman’s Hitmaker
When you build up the focus you don’t have to scope out of and you can just keep hitting successive headshots again after again and do lots of damage.
Secondaries
Jarate
The Jarate is like the baby between the Fan-O-War and the Mad Milk (deals mini-crits when you throw it at people). Use like the Mad Milk and throw it at a big horde of robots.
The Cleaners Carbine
Charge up the Crikey Meter to get mini-crits pair with The Bushwacka on the tank.
Melee
The Bushwacka
Pair with the Jarate for critical damage. Upgrade the max swing speed and combine with The Cleaners Carbine on the tank and you can pretty much solo it.
Spy
Let’s be real, the Spy is useless in MvM. His slow, meticulous, and sneaky play style just doesn’t fit the high DPS required for MvM. Just please don’t use Spy in MvM if you don’t want to get kicked or unless your playing with friends and they are cool with it. (I’m sorry Spy mains 🙁 ).
Conclusion
That’s about it thanks for your time and I hoped it helped 🙂
