The Pyro on customized tools

The Powerjack is a melee weapon for the Pyro. It appears as an antique automobile jack with a team colored car battery strapped to its base with heavy, yellow rubber bands.

This weapon deals 25% more damage to enemies than the default Fire Axe, but does not randomly deal critical hits. The main feature is that upon killing an enemy while holding the weapon, the Pyro will be awarded 75 health. This is given regardless of how the player has killed the enemy, be it from the weapon itself or afterburn damage.

Should the Pyro's health be higher than 100, the Pyro's health will be filled completely and the remainder given as overheal, up to a maximum of 260. This extra health depletes over time similarly to regular overheal.

Bugs

  • The kill icon does not match up exactly with the weapon model; the crank on the car jack is not on the same side with the battery straps.
  • In world/third person view, the crank will clip through the Pyro's right hand.
  • While taunting with this weapon, the Pyro's right elbow clips through the head of the battery.
