Conscientious Objector

From Team Fortress Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

The Conscientious Objector is a community-created melee weapon for all classes, except Engineer and Spy. It is a broken down wooden sign which has been ripped from the ground. The frame of the sign is slightly crooked, with several bloodstains and old nails studding its surface. A worn sheet of paper bearing an image of the Team Fortress 2 logo is nailed to the front of the sign. This logo can be replaced with another image using the Decal Tool.

This weapon functions identically to the wielder's default melee weapon.

The Conscientious Objector was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
