The '''Equalizer''' is the unlockable [[melee]] weapon for the [[Soldier]]. It is simply a worn pickaxe, leading to it often being referred to as 'the Pickaxe'.
 
  
−
Uniquely, this weapon has a damage potential that is inversely proportional to the player's current [[classes#health|health]], dealing low damage at high health and high damage at low health. This can make the player vastly powerful, able to destroy [[buildings]] in two hits if at low heath. Additionally, the speed of the wielding Soldier is also inversely proportional to his health, his movement speed increasing the more he is hurt. Medics cannot [[heal]] a Soldier who is holding his Equalizer. For its [[Critical hit]] animation, the Soldier swings the Equalizer in a backhand fashion, attacking with the sharp end. This animation is identical to the [[Shovel]].

[[Taunt]]ing with the Equalizer will perform the Soldier's [[Kamikaze]] kill taunt.
+
The '''Equalizer''' is an unlockable [[Weapons#soldiermelee|melee weapon]] for the {{cl|Soldier}}. It is a pickaxe with a gray head and blood on both its pick and chisel.
  
−
==Damage==
+
This weapon's [[damage]] scales inversely with the player's [[health]]. While at full health, the Equalizer deals less damage than Soldier's other melee weapons, but at low health, it can deal enough damage to kill even a Soldier in two hits. Additionally, the player receives 90% less healing from all {{cl|Medic}} weapons when it is being held (healing from [[Health#Health kits|health kits]] and [[Dispenser]]s is unaffected). Its [[Critical hits|Critical hit]] animation is a backhanded swing, striking the enemy with the sharp end of the weapon.
−
{{See also|Damage}}
 
−
Scales inversely with health. Approximately '''113.7 − 0.81''x''''' (113.7 minus 0.405''x''), where ''x'' is the amount of health the player currently has as a percentage of their max health, with a minimum of 33 when the player is at or above 100% health, and a maximum of 113 (before [[Damage#Random Modifier|random damage and Critical hits]]).

==Speed==
+
Originally, the Equalizer increased the player's movement speed as their health diminished, along with the increased damage. These attributes were separated in the [[Beta Split Equalizer]] in the ''[[Team Fortress 2 Beta]]'' and added to the game in the {{Patch name|6|27|2012}}. The Equalizer's present attributes are taken from the Beta Split Equalizer 2, while the [[Escape Plan]] takes its attributes from the Beta Split Equalizer 1.

Speed values are based on player's current health.  For reference, the standard movement speed is 100%, which is 300 velocity units per second (the speed of the [[Spy]], [[Sniper]], [[Engineer]] and [[Pyro]],) whilst the [[Scout]] moves at 400v (33% above the standard movement speed.)

The Equalizer's damage scales inversely with health. The approximate formula is '''107.25 + (0.37295 &times; ''H'')''' (107.25 plus 0.37295 multiplied ''H''), where ''H'' is how much damage the player has taken as a negative number. The damage value has a fixed minimum of 33 when the player is at or above 100% health and a maximum of 107<!-- when the player has 2 remaining health points or less (verification needed; the math checks out but source engine nonsense might mess that up)-->. ''TF2'' rounds upwards to the next highest integer if the decimal is 0.5 or over.

The {{item link|Battalion's Backup}} gives the player 20 extra max health, but does not change the minimum and maximum damage. As a result, the damage increases more slowly as the player becomes injured, but is greater at identical health values.

“
Get close enough to death, and you will become Death himself.
— Equalizer publicity blurb
 ”

The Equalizer is an unlockable melee weapon for the Soldier. It is a pickaxe with a gray head and blood on both its pick and chisel.

This weapon's damage scales inversely with the player's health. While at full health, the Equalizer deals less damage than Soldier's other melee weapons, but at low health, it can deal enough damage to kill even a Soldier in two hits. Additionally, the player receives 90% less healing from all Medic weapons when it is being held (healing from health kits and Dispensers is unaffected). Its Critical hit animation is a backhanded swing, striking the enemy with the sharp end of the weapon.

Taunting with the Equalizer deployed results in the Grenade kill taunt. A variation of the taunt is available to players who equip the Lumbricus Lid.

Originally, the Equalizer increased the player's movement speed as their health diminished, along with the increased damage. These attributes were separated in the Beta Split Equalizer in the Team Fortress 2 Beta and added to the game in the June 27, 2012 Patch. The Equalizer's present attributes are taken from the Beta Split Equalizer 2, while the Escape Plan takes its attributes from the Beta Split Equalizer 1.

The Equalizer is automatically given to any player who obtains 5 Soldier achievements.

The Equalizer's damage scales inversely with health. The approximate formula is 107.25 + (0.37295 × H) (107.25 plus 0.37295 multiplied H), where H is how much damage the player has taken as a negative number. The damage value has a fixed minimum of 33 when the player is at or above 100% health and a maximum of 107. TF2 rounds upwards to the next highest integer if the decimal is 0.5 or over.

The Battalion's Backup gives the player 20 extra max health, but does not change the minimum and maximum damage. As a result, the damage increases more slowly as the player becomes injured, but is greater at identical health values.
