 Crusader's Crossbow |
|
| “ | This thing might look like an old crossbow of before. However, it's nothing more than a regular syringe gun!
— Crusader's Crossbow publicity blurb
|
” |
The Crusader's Crossbow is a community-made primary weapon for the Medic. The Crusader's Crossbow is a wooden crossbow with a metal barrel attached to a canister which houses a syringe until it is fired. The Medic's icon is present on both the canister and the frame of the Crusader's Crossbow.
The Crusader's Crossbow fires a syringe that travels in a slight arc with a team-colored healing streak trailing behind it. The Crusader's Crossbow does not require the user to charge their shot before firing, and the time spent reloading is less than the Huntsman; however, the syringes cannot score headshots. Syringes fired from the Crusader's Crossbow will damage enemies and heal teammates, allowing a sharpshooting player to deal damage to an enemy or heal a teammate from a great distance. Any player hit with an syringe fired from the Crusader's Crossbow will appear to have a syringe sticking out of their body, a mere cosmetic effect.
Syringes function on a reversed damage falloff scale; the further a syringe travels, the greater the amount of damage it will deal or health it will heal. The amount of health replenished is not affected by whether the teammate has been recently damaged. Healing teammates with an syringe fired from the Crusader's Crossbow does not contribute to the Medic's ÜberCharge meter.
A Pyro can deflect a syringe fired from the Crusader's Crossbow back at the Medic, or into their own teammates to give them a health boost. Disguised enemy Spies will be damaged by reflected syringes, rather than healed.
The kill icon for the Crusader's Crossbow was contributed by Template:Steam profile link.
