The Fire Retardant Suit is a scrapped primary item for the Spy that was available for use in the Team Fortress 2 Closed Beta. The Fire Retardant Suit is represented in the player's backpack by an image of the Spy's suit bundled and wrapped with a similarly-colored team-colored band that features the class icon of the Pyro.
Two variants of the Fire Retardant Suit are known to have been tested. The Fire Retardant Suit Beta 1 simply reduces incoming fire damage by 90%. The Fire Retardant Suit Beta 2 does not reduce fire damage, but instead grants the wearer complete immunity to the afterburn effect when the wearer is disguised..
With the Fire Retardant Suit equipped, the Spy gains increased protection against his strongest counter, the Pyro, but loses the ranged attack capabilities of his Revolver and other primary weapons.
