Team Fortress Classic Hints

Where should I build this dispenser?

  • 1 of 3: Since most players do not use dispensers, you can probably forget about setting up dispensers for your teammates' use.  The only time they might come in handy is when your teammates are defending a position that is quite a ways from the nearest respawn room.
  • 2 of 3: Instead, use them as breach detectors.  Place some in doorways and passages that lead to your flag or into your base.
  • 3 of 3: Enemies who decide they want to get through will have to destroy the dispenser to get past it.  Once it is destroyed, you get a little message. With that message, you'll know someone has recently passed through the area where you originally placed that dispenser.
