Starduster publicity blurb

The Starduster is a community-created cosmetic item for the Sniper. It is a waist-high, team-colored cape that sways when walking, extends the Sniper's vest's collar, and adds white straps across the chest.

The Starduster was contributed to the Steam Workshop.

Update history

October 6, 2015 Patch (Invasion Community Update)

  • The Starduster was added to the game.

Trivia

  • A duster is a long coat typically made of light leather with a slit from the bottom of the coat up to the lower back. The most common use was to keep dust off of horse riders clothing without hindering their riding abilities.
  • Stardust is actually ice and dust particles found on extraterrestrial bodies of mass, specifically comets, that cling onto metal and clothing.
  • The Starduster, given its design, could be a reference to Jotaro Kujo and Star Platinum from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure due to its design having a popped-up collar like Jotaro's coat and a scarf-like garment wrapped around the neck like in the design for Star Platinum.
