The Homewrecker is a community-created melee weapon for the Pyro. It is a large, two-handed sledgehammer.
The Homewrecker's primary function is the ability to destroy enemy Sappers placed on friendly Buildings. This allows the Pyro to better support Engineers. However, this ability isn't unique, as the Neon Annihilator, another Pyro melee, shares this ability. The advantage of the Homewrecker is that it only takes one swing to completely destroy a sapper, rather than the two swings it would take either the Neon Annihilator or most Wrenches to do so, or the three swings that the Jag would take to do so. This makes it more effective than the Engineer's own weapons at destroying Sappers.
Additionally, the Homewrecker deals 100% increased damage to enemy buildings, taking out Combat Mini-Sentry Guns in a single swing, and all other unattended Buildings in a mere two (although destroying a sentry will be quite difficult).
As a downside, the Homewrecker deals 25% less damage to players. Also, keep in mind that the Homewrecker will not repair or upgrade friendly buildings.
The kill icon for the Homewrecker was contributed by NeoDement .
