The burning you feel? It is shame.
The Heavy

The Huo-Long Heater is a primary weapon for the Heavy. The name comes from the Chinese word for "fire dragon" (火龍, huǒlóng). It is an antique wooden machine gun with team-colored portions. A traditional Chinese dragon's head is mounted on the muzzle of the gun.

While deployed, a flashing ring of flame and smoke surrounds the user; this ring lights any enemy within the flame's radius on fire and inflicts afterburn damage, but will not damage buildings and cannot deal critical hits (though it can deal Mini-crits). However, the Huo-Long Heater consumes 6 ammunition per second while spun up, even if not firing. In addition, the Ring of Fire will not take effect if the weapon is out of ammunition.

This item was awarded in Genuine quality to players who pre-purchased Sleeping Dogs on Steam before August 14, 2012, or August 17, 2012 in Europe.

The Huo-Long Heater was later contributed to the Steam Workshop, at Valve's request.
