The '''Dynamite pack''' (also known as the '''TNT Pack''' or, due to its similarity in function to the [[Team Fortress Classic]] weapon, the '''MIRV Grenade''') is a [[scrapped]] weapon prominently wielded by the [[Demoman]] in both [[Trailer 1]] and [[Trailer 2]]. Based on allocation in [[Team Fortress Classic]], it may once have also been intended as a [[Heavy]] weapon. The Dynamite Pack itself consists of several sticks of dynamite strapped together which are swung from an attached cord by the Demoman, allowing him to physically throw it ahead of him. After the first and largest detonation, the strap breaks and the individual sticks of dynamite are scattered across the vicinity of the initial blast, after which they too explode with a slightly smaller individual blast radius. The Dynamite Pack was eventually replaced in function by the [[Stickybomb Launcher]].

The Dynamite Pack, also known as the MIRV Grenade, is a scrapped grenade for the Demoman. It consists of several sticks of dynamite strapped together and swung from an attached cord by the Demoman, allowing him to physically throw it ahead of him. The grenade weapon version has five sticks and is connected to a numeric keypad. The secondary version has three sticks all held together by a leather strap.

After the first and largest detonation, the strap breaks and the individual sticks of dynamite are scattered across the vicinity of the initial blast, after which they too explode with a slightly smaller individual blast radius. The Dynamite Pack was eventually scrapped when throwable hand grenades were removed from the game.

The Dynamite Pack is prominently wielded by the Demoman in both Trailer 1 and Trailer 2. It was originally intended to be a grenade, but got removed from the game after grenades were scrapped. The weapon would have functioned like its Team Fortress Classic counterpart.
