The '''Batsaber''' is a [[Steam Workshop|community-created]] [[Weapons#scoutmelee|melee weapon]] for the [[Scout]]. It is a metallic tube with a rubberized grip that emits a team-colored beam of light that resembles the size and shape of the stock [[Bat]]. It emits an electronic noise when swung, may it hit or miss.
 
 
Enemies killed by the Batsaber suffer a distinctive death by vaporization: they turn black, hover in mid-air while surrounded by team-colored [[particles]], and then disappear into ashes while a loud, distinct vaporization sound plays. Like backstabs and headshots, there is a 25% chance that opponents will perform a specific disintegration animation if killed in this way.
 
 
This weapon functions identically to the [[Bat]].
 
 
The Batsaber may be inspected by using the inspect item key ([[List of default keys|default key]]: hold {{Key|F}}).
 
 
The Batsaber was [http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=314552430 contributed] to the Steam Workshop under the same name.

== Update history ==
 
'''{{Patch name|10|6|2015}}''' ({{update link|invasion update}})
 
* The Batsaber was added to the game.
 
 
'''{{Patch name|10|8|2015}}'''
 
* Updated Batsaber to use the '[[unique]]' [[Item qualities|base quality]].
 
 
'''{{Patch name|10|9|2015}}'''
 
* Updated the materials for the Batsaber.
 
 
'''{{Patch name|10|28|2015}}''' ([[Scream Fortress 2015]])
 
* Added inspect animations for the Batsaber.
 
* Fixed the Batsaber not showing the Killstreak sheen.
 
 
== Unused content ==
 
* The Batsaber is set up for paint but the ability to do so is disabled.
 
 
== Bugs ==
 
* The Batsaber lacks the description "Team Colored Weapon", and their BLU team variants cannot be viewed in the backpack unless playing on BLU team.
 
* If a Specialized [[Killstreak]] or Professional Killstreak Kit is applied to the Batsaber, the white glowing center of the weapon will turn transparent whenever the sheen appears. This may be a material error.
 
 
== Trivia ==
 
* The Batsaber is based on the iconic [[w:Lightsaber|Lightsaber]] from the ''[[w:Star Wars|Star Wars]]'' franchise.
