“
Here at Mann Co., we take care of our mercs. After you’ve completed your first mission, you will get, free of charge, one Mann Co.-brand canteen. It's equippable in your action slot and filled to the damn brim with life-giving air. If air’s not your thing, these canteens can also be filled with a variety of power-ups at an Upgrade Station.
”

The Canteen is an action slot item used in the Mann vs. Machine game mode. The Canteen is received by completing your first Mann vs. Machine mission, and once filled at an Upgrade Station it is valid for up to three uses. Using the Canteen will alert your entire team via a sound cue as well as a message in the chat box.

The Power Up Canteen also doubles as a cosmetic item, showing up on your class model on the belt.

As a Medic, applying the 'Canteen Specialist' upgrade for your Medi Gun once will apply the Power-Up effects of your Canteen to whom you are currently healing. In addition, the Power-Ups will also have an increased duration of one seconds and reduced cost of 10 credits for every point invested in the upgrade. This will not work if the Canteen is activated while the Medi Gun is not healing an ally.

Buff types

There are currently 5 buff types. You can only fill one canteen with the same buff, each with up to 3 uses. After being filled, the canteen changes its appearance, though they all glow.
