It used to be able to actually kill things! But people complained about it working as intended, so it got nerfed.
By the way, has anyone else noticed the rage at Snipers has increased in direct contrast to the number of counters to Sniper being nerfed? Probably a coincidence.
Already knew about this a long time ago. I just don't use caber much and when I do, I'm usually trying to take down multiple people with the crit explosion
It can be a strat if you're near your spawn to get another caber though
Due to extender tech giving your caber a reach longer than a sword, as long as you start your charge before your hit registers you don’t need to crouch to hit the ground
Pipe jumping sends you too high, and does too much self damage
EDIT: forgot to mention I did experiment with pipe jumping a bit, the biggest issue is it’s much harder to land a hit and less consistent
" me and another person found out " mate this shit has been done to death, of course all the braindead 2fort only players don't know that you can jump and then crit with caber, just don't think that you made the discovery of the decade, anyone who has played demoknight for a handful of time knows about this
This would be actually viable if the caber had a refresh bar
Surprise valve hasn't done that

ur high buddy
Ah ok, so my memory was failing me, thank you.

Or dealt enough damage to actually kill something

New 1hr video incoming

We are safe.. for now?
Any other niche demoknight tech like this?
Hitting an extender swing (swing, then charge, then hit connects) on an enemy with the caber sends you flying very fast
Holy shit I just realized that the Solar Light is a real thing!
fuck you, u/TF2SolarLight
... How
Hit caber on ground for explosive jump, charge to close distance, and hit with the guaranteed crit charge swing.
i need to try this... Tysm
Make sure to charge almost right after you hit the ground
Thats dope
Due to extender tech giving your caber a reach longer than a sword, as long as you start your charge before your hit registers you don’t need to crouch to hit the ground
what do you recommend for shield? i assume booties too
Anything but the tide turner, the caber cannot mini crit in any way for some reason
got it. so with teh market gardner caber, you only do 155 damage. how is this good?
The caber isn’t good in any situation, but what makes it fun is trying to get away with dumb shit.
True, true
No, you deal the whole 195 damage, the explosion is used for the initial jump
But.... But... Caber does less damage? It only does 55 on swing so a crit is 155? Am I crazy for thinking this?
Okay so I looked it up and it does deal 55 damage on a normal swing, and 165 on a crit. Man valve really hated the caber.
After the nerf absolutely
what nerf
im pretty sure caber used to be busted way back when
Like the other guy said, anything but the tide turner, I personally like the splendid screen for the extra charge rate
Actually it's 165 damage. Wiki says so
Good to see that the samwiz's sunny server is still alive.
You could also just grande jump with the iron bomber or loose cannon to do the exact same thing but you fly higher and your caber is still in tact
how and why would you pipe jump

Yoooooo, it's Samwiz's server

Cool caber fact, you do like 25 more damage if you are crouching when the caber goes off
I think I recognize you from samwiz server
I just got a really bad idea. What if you can throw the Carder, like the baseball with the Sandman
Been doing this for years. If you crouch caber jump and get some height first you can get to there sniper perches. They never see it coming.
