The Scout

The Candy Cane is a melee weapon for the Scout. It is an oversized cane made of team-colored candy with a ribbon wrapped around with a double-looped parallel bow.

This weapon has the same basic stats as the default Bat, but small health packs will be dropped by slain enemies if they are killed with any weapon while the Candy Cane is equipped to a loadout slot. Health packs also drop from assists and any kill that counts as being "Finished off", but do not drop from a Spy's Dead Ringer. Equipping the Candy Cane will make the Scout more vulnerable to damage from explosives, such as Rockets, Grenades, the Ullapool Caber, and Sticky Bombs.
