The '''Powerjack''' is a [[melee]] weapon for the [[Pyro]]. It appears as an antique automobile jack with a team-colored car battery strapped to its base with heavy, yellow rubber bands.

This weapon deals 25% more damage to enemies than the default [[Fire Axe]], but does not randomly deal [[critical hit]]s. The main feature is that upon killing an enemy while holding the weapon, the Pyro will be awarded 75 health. This is given regardless of how the player has killed the enemy, be it from the weapon itself or [[afterburn]] damage.

The '''Powerjack''' is a [[Steam Workshop|community-created]] [[Weapons#pyromelee|melee weapon]] for the [[Pyro]]. It is an antique automobile jack with a team-colored car battery strapped to its base with tan leather straps<!-- The arrangement is physically impossible for rubber bands, and if the Gas Jockey has a Model T jack, he has a Model T fan belt. -->.
  
Should the Pyro's health be higher than 100, the Pyro's health will be filled completely and the remainder given as [[Healing#Overheal|overheal]], up to a maximum of 260. This extra health depletes over time similarly to regular overheal.
+
This weapon deals identical damage to the [[Fire Axe]], and upon killing an enemy with this weapon, the player is awarded 25 [[health]]. While this weapon is active, the player is granted a 15% speed bonus. As a downside, the player suffers from an additional 20% weakness to all damage sources when the Powerjack is active.
