The damage reduction hasn't made a difference, it's just that teams stopped consisting entirely of soldiers and demos now. There was never anything wrong with the targe, people are just thick as shit.
That, and heavies are completely fucking up the game right now. ANY close range class is screwed until they nerf this crap.
even if there weren't 10 explosive classes on each team back when the targe got released, i still think 65% was a little over the top
Bad targelanders are easy kills for pyro because they don't know when to stop so you can just airblast and burn but good ones switch to pipes after you airblast them and are charging for more burn and pipe you in the face and you explode.
Is this a joke? After the targe update it was like a field day for playing pyro. Stupid Demo rushes you, airblast before they hit you, puff once, and then axe-tinguish.
Ohhhh that'll explain it. Try to get the pyro achievements so you can get one. It makes the Pyro awesome in closed spaces/1v1. Honestly, the only times I've ever been killed by a targelander as a pyro are 1.) I was running out of my base and I just -happened- to get caught and 2.) if there is that "you get hit with a melee attack even though they werent in range" type of lag.

It's like. Easy mode, guys.
It was a field day for Natascha heavies actually, and I played the HELL out of that while I waited for the targe nerf

I don't think Eyelanders get that lag as often as bottles do. It is to the point where I run in fear when a demo busts out his bottle because he can hit me from like. 10 miles away with that thing.

The culprit is not the weapon, it's the netcode. If the bottle seems like it can hit you from 10 miles away, the eyelander will seem like it can hit you from 20 miles away.

Feel like I have to defend my chosen play style with all the hating.
If they're good, they'll just double tap a pyro trying that with a pipe. Or even juggle him if they want.
Targe is very strong as long as you see it as a back up to pipes; keeps you mobile and lets you 2 -1 shot anything that get's in range. Especially with the new axe.
Playing pyro in the current condition is purposefully gimping yourself. You see a Heavy and you just have to run - no way in fuck you're gonna kill him. Except for when that awesome medic (I forget who now, sorry) ubered me on granary and let me axetinguish two of them.
Also I reflected an arrow from one huntsman sniper and headshot a different huntsman sniper. Feels good, man.
I haven't seen a decapitation ever since I had to reinstall an old video card into my PC. Do they get automatically disabled under DX8 or something? Is there a console command to turn them back on?

Play on a pub. Pyro is actually a lot of fun.
I suppose one could argue that it sucks to have to play versus idiots to have fun playing pyro, but I don't care. Fun is fun.
The two times TF2 has crashed so far in this evening were both when loading a website in the overlay browser. Maybe I should stop using it when playing TF2.
Probably won't help with the cases where I crash on map change, though.
If you guys are crashing after the map finishes loading, try turning off HTML MotDs in the options.
Thanks for the suggestion, but I think I did that when they first added the option.
I hate the Deep Undercover achievement and I hate some of you. You two know who you are.
O shit I'm one of those two people. I didn't know you were trying to get an achievement, I thought you were just reveling in killing me so many times. When you mentioned killing me one more time I thought you were jeering me, so my "sure" reply was sarcastic. I thought it was odd when you thanked me for a sarcastic reply. Now I feel bad .

Not saying overpowered, just saying aggravating.

ditto
got the homewrecker, though
edit: wait so a lot of the time then
looking at this list, how long have there been icons for "Grenade", "Head", and "Building" tokens?
it may have even been before the damage buff, but I don't quite remember and can't be bothered to check
I hate you more.
i think those have been there since the soldier vs. demoman update
ah
I haven't looked at that list in a while, I think
I say play heavies more and I get more free stabs
Since the day tokens were added, IIRC.

Half of the classes currently are pretty gimped and/or boring.

If you're heavy and being charged, it's a free kill.
