Team Fortress 2 "OVERDOSE" - When you're better than Scout as Medic

This thing... Is a monster. The only primary you should be using.
Like many weapons, it sucks on PVP but its sweet glory on MVM (brass beast, fan-o-war, gas passer...)

I'll give it straight to ya: you should NOT be using your primary weapon. You're here to keep the team healed, not hurt robots for a total 70 damage. Let's see why the overdose is the exception to this:

"I am the milkman. My milk is delicious."

INFINITE MAD MILK, HOW'S THAT SOUND??
For 200$ you can milk ALL ROBOTS on the map for 5 seconds as many times as you want. On a team with several heavies or pyros (constant damage sources) this is basically a win button, if winning means healing harder than a rhyno's balls.

Example:

Look at 'em go! And you don't even have to do anything!
This function can be a game saver: your shield is about to run out, your heavy is overhealed at 650 hp, the giant is still at full health! Go back, milk the giant quickly after the shield goes down, and pull back while stinging the giant over and over. Heavy will heal himself until the robot dies! (Heavy deals about 1200 damage x second to giants, which roughly translates to 700 healing x second. So. Myeah.)

Bonus Fact:

Mad milk srynges healing gives you UBER!! Not a lot but a fine amount. Better than nothing. Even your own self-healing on hit!

+20% movement on weared based on ubercharge amount

This, paired with Movement Speed 3, boosts you to a wooping 158% movement speed.
Scout's base speed is 133%, and game's cap is 175%.
Pop this bad boy out and you'll be running at the speed of sound, like the quickest hedgehog around, to escape any situation, without an explanation!

Throw in your respective damage resistances and you can collect money like a discount scout, effectively making your team consider kicking him! (thats actually a bad thing... maybe make him change class to engineer?)
If there is nothing to heal and you spot blinking money and nobody gives a damn about it, you can rush in a second to get it. "Thank you, medic!"

Additionally, your insane high speed lets you reach dead players far away from you, and kill That One Robot Scout with the bomb near spawn that nobody saw but you totally did. You can also milk that scout before fighting him, all on your own!


THESE ARE A LOT OF GOOD THINGS FROM 1 SINGLE WEAPON! WHAT'S THE DOWNSIDE?

I think this deals less damage, idk. Not like its your job to deal damage. If you need to kill some off-hand robots you have your crittersaw.
