Hello, Fräuleins!
The Medic

The Beta Syringe Gun is a primary weapon for the Medic that currently exists in Team Fortress 2 Beta. The Beta Syringe Gun uses the Syringe Gun model.

This variation of the Syringe Gun deals 90% less damage than that of the stock Syringe Gun, and fires needles at half the rate. However, as the medic builds us his Übercharge, he will move up to 10% faster.

Since the Beta Syringe Gun is still in an unreleased stage, these attributes may be changed or the weapon may be scrapped entirely.
