equalizer survival

Can someone confirm it is possible to survive this by a being overhealed and under a low roof while performing the taunt, i suspect gunboats may also be required ??--Markd 15:23, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure, but I know it is possible to survive it normally by using the last weapon key to switch weapons to something other than the equalizer, so you can be healed while executing the taunt. Hackett 15:28, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
The Gunboats do nothing to aid you in survival in this situation. A bug previously existed which would lower the amount of damage took from the taunt, but it was corrected and patched a while ago. The way to survive the taunt is by being over-healed, using the weapon switch taunt glitch, allowing you to taunt with the Equalizer, and then quickly switch back to a weapon which will allow your Medic to continue healing you throughout the Equalizer taunt animation. Which obviously will mean you can survive the explosion and fall damage, even without a low roof. Infi^ 15:32, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
