This section needs revision. Possibly there needs to be a new section on how to place Sentries using the Wrangler, as many of this information currently assumes using the vanilla Sentry.

Title. The damage has been increased since the Blue Moon update iirc, so we need to update the damage numbers. [[User:Payn|Payn]] ([[User talk:Payn|talk]]) 02:12, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

<br>Guys, please. This hurts my soul and I am no where good enough to update it myself.[[User:Payn|Payn]] ([[User talk:Payn|talk]]) 01:14, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
  
I would suggest a whole new page called "Sentry placement" be created that contains a graphical guide to placing Sentries on the various maps, instead of relying on vague written descriptions, as well as different sections covering vanilla Sentries, mini-Sentries, and Wrangler Sentries.  This would be a large undertaking, so if anyone else is interested in creating this, please comment here.  --[[User:Aranarth|Aranarth]] 17:00, 10 July 2010 (UTC)

I added a couple of diagrams that I made to illustrate graphically some of the things I added to the Sentry Placement General strategies section which I reorganized somewhat.   --[[User:Aranarth|Aranarth]] 05:15, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
* Just for future reference avoid using bold italics -- the map specific section here was full of bold italic words which should be avoided.  Plain italics or all CAPS is better for emphasis, bold font is generally used to denote sections within an article.  The Wiki style guide explains this. --[[User:Aranarth|Aranarth]] 16:56, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
===Weapon Specific===
 
 
 
Try to avoid adding tips here that are redundant.  Please make sure you read through the section already to make sure you don't add information that's already been mentioned.  I would say that most of the significant strategy for the items has been mentioned, there's not need to "scrape the bottom of the barrel" for more possibilities, if you can see what I mean.  The purpose of this section is '''not''' to list '''all''' possible strategies for a weapon, but to 1) help new players understand what these items can do quickly
 
and 2) mention '''some''' possibilities that may not occur to most people but are definitely useful. 
 
 
 
An example of what not to do: someone recently posted a tip telling people to "Spy check" with the Gunslinger, and that its 3 hit combo can kill Spies.  First, that is not technically "Spy Checking" it's just "Spy killing" but more importantly most if not all players will do this without needing to be told that it's a "strategy" for this item.  Punching enemies or suspected enemies with this item is obvious and is similar to saying "a good strategy for the shotgun is to shoot it at enemies."  --[[User:Aranarth|Aranarth]] 17:26, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
===Toolbox Kill Icon===
 
I think it would be useful find a place where to explain what means the Toolbox kill icon you see when an engie is killed while hauling a building. I think here is the best page. Ideas? --[[User:Kid Of The Century|Kid Of The Century]] 13:18, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
:Sure.  Actually I think we should reorganize the page to include a small section on "hauling", explaining the mechanic and how to use it, since there are currently tips and notes involving it all over the strategy page it might be better to concentrate them.  We could include the information on the toolbox kill icon there too.  --[[User:Aranarth|Aranarth]] 21:45, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
 
:: Hauling already exists [[Buildings#Hauling|Here]], feel free to add to it, the toolbox kill icon is there as well, perhaps there could simply be links to it. --[[User:Firestorm|<span style="color:#FF6600;text-decoration:underline;font-weight:bold;">Firestorm'''</span>]] {{mod}} 21:49, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
Added a fun strategy of Mini-Sentry + Pistol DPS.--[[User:Ikimono1|Ikimono1]] 03:15, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

It's consistent now, it's just changing the numbers in the table.
