The Demoman

The Loch-n-Load is the new secondary weapon for the Demoman, released for The Expert's Ordnance Australian Christmas update set. It appears as a break-action Grenade Launcher, with separate barrels for each of the two grenades it fires.

The grenades fired by the Loch-n-Load are much faster, and inflict slightly more damage, but are more hazardous to the Demoman that fired them, and will shatter harmlessly if they hit something other than an enemy player.

Trivia

  • As it is currently the only craftable secondary weapon for the Demoman, it is more efficient to craft the Loch-n-Load via the generic slot token + class token + scrap metal blueprint, which requires a total of 8 items, compared to 13 for the item-specific recipe given above.

Bugs

  • The Loch-n-Load uses the same reload animation as the Grenade Launcher, thus making it appear as if the demo is putting the grenades on the side of the barrel instead of in it.
  • The Loch-n-Load has been known to bounce off certain dynamic surfaces (such as the moving walkways of Nucleus), as well as opposing team players, and also players on your team.
