The P.D.Q. is a scrapped melee weapon for the Engineer from the closed beta, the attributes of which were leaked by testers. At the time of its leak, the P.D.Q. did not possess a unique model, texture, or animations, rather using the same as the regular Wrench. The P.D.Q. did not have the ability to be used to upgrade buildings, instead increasing the Engineer's rate of construction by 150% percent. It was never known whether damage values varied from the regular Wrench or not.

It is possible that the P.D.Q. was an early prototype of what is now the Gunslinger. While Dispensers and Teleporters build at the normal rate, it can build Mini Sentry Guns which build much faster than normal Sentry Guns, but can't be upgraded or repaired.

Trivia

  • The name is a reference to the abbreviated acronym for "Pretty Damn Quick" (alternatively "Pretty Darn Quick" or "Please Do Quickly"), sometimes appended to the end of an instruction or command to communicate urgency.
