Amputator: heal 500 hp within 1 second

[Sicmendor Obscurox]

Edit: Before making a new post, please be aware of the new conditions of the contract:

Heal 3000 health in a single life (with the amputator)
Heal 250 healtih within 1 second (with the amputator)

The firsts posts were about when the objective was impossible.
--------
I've tried to do this objective, and I have to admit that it's really hardcore.

It's like the medic needs 8 teammates that have received 25 damage or more in a single place.

Does anyone know some tips to do this objectives or ways to accomplish it?

Impossible. How tf do you do this?

I don't know, that's why I'm asking x3.

Addition: I've tried taunting/alt-fire with the amputator and I didn't reach 500 hp of healing in 1 second.

Use the taunt of the Amputator with a bunch of injured teammates nearby

Just go onto 2fort. Last I checked everyone’s getting help with their contract (Exept me, I got all the pyro stuff legit).

so assuming your teammates all took dmg recently, you will heal at about 100hp/s, so you'll need 5 soldiers with half their hp to heal. Kinda lame and hard to do

You should try to use the amputator on targets with crit heals, so you'll heal at 300+hp/s
much easier but also unlikely without friends

It's more difficult than it looks.

However... I'm thinking that it may work if I spam the alt-fire of the amputator in an engie's nest, next to a dispender.

How do you make the 10k hp on a single life? I tried and couldn't do it with the medigun. Do I need to heal 10k with only the amputator?

It's like the Specialist achievement for the medic, but in this contract you have to do it 6 times.

And I think that it can be any weapon, but I'm not sure. I don't know if the bonus objective of this contract works or not.

Also, I've asked some people in a chat and they told me that the bonus objective of the 500 hp in 1 second is unreasonable and impossible.

Damn it... it's incredibly hard.

1. The medic heals better if he's mostly exposed instead of hiding against a wall or corner.
"The healing effect requires line of sight to the target, and therefore cannot heal teammates who are on the opposite side of an obstacle."

2. It is impossible to reach 500 hp/s if you keep spamming it. It can only heal 275 to the whole team with normal healing (25 * 11 = 275).

3. You'd need at least 7 teammates that hadn't received any damage in the last 15 seconds in order to perform the 500 hp in one second (75 * 7 = 525). This is also known as crit-healing and people can be jumpy about medics not healing on purpose -- some even can call vote-kick just for that.

4. To add insult to injury: the medic has to drop the good habit of healing everyone with the mediguns just to do the 500 hp in 1 second objective (or even have a chance at it), meaning that he has to purposely ignore teammates when they call for a medic, AND he has to wait at least 20 seconds to see if 7 of the teammates will remain there, waiting for the medic to heal them with a lot of patience.

And on the other side: doing 10.000 healing in the same life is possible. However it is really grindy and as I said before: the medic is performing the Specialist achievement 6 times.

I'm afraid that players won't pick the amputator contract once they read all this info. They may go for the sniper or spy contracts, which are way too easier.
And the ones who picked the amputator are stuck in this situation that requires heavy grinding for the 10.000 healing in the same life and pure luck for the 500 hp in 1 second.

If someone can prove that I'm wrong, I invite that someone to present his/her arguments here. Even a video performing the contract or 500 hp in one second successfuly can greatly help.

I'm sending an e-mail to the TF Team E-mail sent to TF2 team.

Well... this is one way to do it... kinda. The video is self-explanatory for the 10k healing.

This is why I took the sniper one and when I commenced on the doms being the main objective someone said I should of took medic XD

I wish had not picked the amputator contract, I can live with the 10k healing 6 times. It's tough sure, but possible. Just stay alive, I have time to do it, till february but the 500 heal in 1 second . . . valve should think about that objective. The Jarate one is advanced support too and quite easy compared to this. phlog I picked seem unreasonable too for me. At least nowadys it's difficult to get the 5 mmmph kills in one life 10 times, should be like 3 times like shotgun contract. But I can live with that one it's still possible. But the Amputator . . . pls Valve consider the objectives. 10 k in one life should be reduced to 7 k and the 500 health in 1 seconds should be either like 300 health in 1 second or 500 health in 3 seconds. Yeah contracts should be challenging but not frustrating.

It is possible to do the 5 mmmph kills 10 times if a medic pockets you. I helped a friend do that ^^.

And about the suggestions: 7k is perfectly fine for me, and for the 300 hp/s, it would need to crit-heal at least 4 teammates.

yeah as i said the phlog is tough but possible i have no worries to do it in the long run but amputator needs change

I do agree with that. I've sent an e-mail to TF2 Team regarding this contract and I didn't got any reply yet.
