## Miscellaneous

Applejack is the first pony to have her name abbreviated in the show. In S1 E4 [Applebuck Season], Twilight Sparkle calls her **"A.J."**.

In S2 E5 [Sisterhooves Social], Applejack appears wearing a green bandanna, however artists have found a better color that would suit Applejack more, so a lot of art with Applejack wearing a red bandanna was drawn. And thus the red bandanna became more popular than the original green one, which lead to the first SFM Applejack model to also feature a red bandanna, which is the reason why her model on the server has it too.

Applejack's current model in the files is called "yeehaw", instead of the character's name.

During the match, Applejack will say "Nah" everytime she takes damage or use any kind of voice command.
If the Applejack player has a "The Buzz Killer" set equipped on his Engineer loadout, Applejack's "Nah" will be affected by the voice change. Also using the command /voice will affect the pitch of her voice. Entering water also affects this.

Having two Rage sounds, they are not set equally (50/50) to play, instead the quote **"Yeeehaw!"** has a 1/3 chance to play, while the other has a 2/3 change to play.

The ÜberCharge was previously showed by Applejack having pure white eyes and a golden hat, this has been changed however and now it's normal ÜberCharge effect with the pure white eyes.

## Fighting

### Strengths

* Good mobility with Super Jump.
* Rage stuns foes around the Hale, can be used to finish off an enemy or kill a group of players.
* Über and knockback immunity on rage makes the boss sturdy; cannot be stopped by knockback.
* Rage can be used while cornered to prevent large amounts of damage taken.
* Low health loss requirement for Rage.

### Weaknesses

* Stunned foes can still move, experienced players are able to dodge AJ's melee attacks or bait her to miss.
* Wizard can still cast spells while stunned, can use Jump spells to dodge attacks.
* Medics not caught in the fear radius can come in and save their teammates with Über.
* Players affected by the Quick-Fix übercharge cannot be stunned by the rage.
* The active effect of Battalion's Backup makes stunned players tank multiple hits before dying, effectively wasting the duration of the rage.

### Battling as Applejack

Applejack is one of the simplest bosses to play as, since her rage is straightforward and easy to use. She fears nearby enemies for 6 seconds, stuns nearby sentries for 8 seconds and she becomes invulnerable for 10 seconds, which allows a wide versatility in usage of her rage. Her rage can be used on any situation, but the most often times it would be the best to be used would be:

1) Chasing down a single player who's extremely skilled/annoying and hard to kill.

2) Near an engineer nest so you can destroy all the buildings/kill players in the general vicinity without dealing with sentry knockback.

3) In the midst of a group of enemies, killing as many players near you as you can.

If there are medics nearby, try and pop the rage either before medics pop their uber, or after their uber runs out as their uber negates your fear on themselves and they can flash their uber on the targets you try to hit. Also be aware of any soldiers with the Battalion's Backup equipped as the resistance the banner gives will slow you down heavily on killing enemies with the rage.

### Battling against Applejack

Applejack is one of the simplest bosses to play against, but that doesn't mean you should let your guard down when playing against her. Her rage is very lethal if she decides to target you, scaring you for a whole 6 seconds and unable to use weapons to escape. Your best chance of surviving if she rages next to you is to move erratically and hope she can't hit you within those 6 seconds.

If you're outside the range of her rage, try and save teammates by either ubering them as medic keeping your teammates alive or distracting her with any class with high moblity. Make sure you pay attention to how much damage she's taken, and try not to clump up into groups as her rage is most effective while in the center of many mercenaries.
