Disciplinary Action
“ | ” |
The Disciplinary Action is a community-created melee weapon for the Soldier. It is a riding crop with a wooden handle and a loose leather loop at the end.
Despite not being listed in the description, this weapon has a 70% longer range than most melee weapons, slightly more so than the Eyelander. However, it causes 25% less damage to enemies.
The main benefit of the Disciplinary Action is that teammates struck with this weapon receive a speed boost for 2 seconds, while the user receives a speed boost for 3 seconds; the boost amount varies by the class affected (see below). The boost is indicated by a wind breeze particle effect surrounding the affected class, visible both to them and any other players. Multiple teammates can be boosted at once. Disguised Spies are damaged by the weapon, but are also boosted.
