=== Overheal ===
'''Overheal''' is an effect where your health is increased above your base health, maximum health up to 150% of their base health. For example, a [[Heavy]] has 300 base health, and thus recieves 150 extra health with overheal, totalling to 450 health in total. For some patients with lower max health, for example a [[Scout]], if the overheal would end with a decimal, it is rounded down to a multiple of 5. So a Scout would only get up to 185 health with overheal.

Overheal is indicated to the player by their HUD health icon glowing and growing larger the more they are overhealed. Overheal is also visible to other players by the presence of overheal particles that come off of other players.

Overheal slowly decays with time, approximately 15 seconds, provided the person overhealed doesn't take any damage. The overheal decay time is the same regardless of your class. While a [[Spy]] can be boosted to 185 health and a [[Soldier]] is boosted to 300 health, they both decay in the same time.
