This thing ain't on auto-pilot, son!
The Engineer on manual punishment

The Wrangler is an unlockable secondary weapon for the Engineer. It seems to be the remains of a wooden Pistol handle implemented with a joystick and radar dish.

When selected, the Engineer manually takes control of his Sentry Gun's aim. During this period, the Sentry Gun will stop aiming and firing automatically. The Wrangler produces a semi-transparent shield around the Sentry Gun that absorbs 66% of all incoming damage. Furthermore, the gun's firing rate and missile launch rate (for level 3 Sentry Guns) are doubled whenever fired using the weapon's bound keys. A laser sight is emitted from the Sentry Gun which auto-aims the Sentry Gun and its rockets toward the center of those targeted by the Wrangler. Other players can see this laser and use it to quickly ascertain the location of the Sentry Gun.

When switching to another weapon, the Sentry Gun is left defenseless for 3 seconds with its shield, after which time it will resume normal operation. On the Engineer's death, all effects are removed but the Sentry Gun remains idle for 3 seconds.

The Wrangler allows a clever Engineer to get to high places through the use of a Sentry Gun jump.

Trivia

Radigan Conagher holding the Wrangler.
  • The Wrangler, as with the Frontier Justice, the Gunslinger, and the Southern Hospitality, appears to have been designed by Radigan Conagher, the Engineer's ancestor. This is shown by a hidden link in the Engineer Update.
  • The main component of the Wrangler bears a striking resemblance to the control pad of the Atari 2600.
  • Humorously, the Engineer's hand appears to get cramps after rotating the Wrangler's joystick for a period of time.
  • At this time, the laser emitted from the Sentry Gun while using the Wrangler will travel through some walls.
  • A Wrangled level 2 or 3 Sentry Gun can survive Taunt attacks that would normally destroy any building instantly (such as the Pyro's Hadouken or Soldier's Kamikaze).
  • Players that kill themselves with their Sentry Gun's bullets using the Wrangler will have the kill icon appear as the Wrangler's. However, a player killed with their Sentry Gun's rockets using the Wrangler will cause the kill icon to appear as a level 3 Sentry Gun.
  • Being stunned by the Sandman leaves the Engineer unable to fire, but keeps the Sentry Gun in the Wrangled state, effectively disabling it.
  • The Engineer appears to be able to fire missiles and bullets with the Wrangler by simply moving the joystick forward.
  • When the Wrangler is used on a Mini-Sentry, the fire-rate increases close to the fire rate of a level 2 Sentry Gun. Use that advantage to make good use of the Mini-Sentry's large ammo capacity.
