— The Engineer on texan guitar combat
|
” |
Upon taunting with the Frontier Justice equipped, the Engineer pulls out his trusty guitar, plays a few choice notes, and then bashes it over the head of anyone too slow, unaware, or unfortunate enough to be in his way. It is necessary to kill someone using this taunt to gain the 'Honky-Tonk Man' achievement.
As a taunt, this can still be used during Humiliation (despite being visually disarmed) to kill the winning team members as they come barreling into your spawn, as well during Stalemate, although the achievement cannot be obtained during these modes.
