Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Crossover Mission: This mission introduces the Heavy. You will need to build 2 Pillboxes, make 3 Sandviches at the Bakery, and kill many Rebels. The mission costs 3 hours and 600 Gold, rewarding 350 XP. The Heavy's dialogue reveals he is looking for his comrade Scout.
  2. 2
    Good Old Fashioned Shooting Contest: A follow-up mission where you fight Rebels with Ramsey and the Heavy. The mission rewards 400 XP. The Heavy challenges Ramsey to a shooting contest to prove his skills.
Tips
  • The Heavy excels at close-to-mid range combat due to his high damage output.
  • Always try to stay with your team, especially Medics, to mitigate your slow movement speed and high vulnerability.
  • Use your Sandvich to heal yourself or teammates, providing crucial sustain.
  • Protect your Medic at all costs; they are your lifeline.
  • Be aware of your surroundings and potential flanking routes. Heavies are easy targets for Spies and Snipers.
