 ”

The Bushwacka is a community-created melee weapon for the Sniper. It is an enormous Bowie knife with a serrated spine, a small hole near the back of the blade, and a wooden handle with brass pommel and guard.

When attacking with this weapon in a situation where it would normally deliver a mini-crit, such as against a Jarate-sodden foe or when buffed via the Buff Banner, it instead performs a critical hit. On the other hand, this weapon cannot deal random critical hits and the Sniper has an additional 20% damage vulnerability to all sources while the weapon is active.

The kill icon for the Bushwacka was contributed by Psyke .
