Thanks for the warm-up, sister.
The Sniper after taking damage

The Shahanshah (Template:W: شاهنشاه, 'King of Kings') is a melee weapon for the Sniper. It is a Template:W with a leather hilt that is reinforced by dull golden bindings.

This weapons functions to reward players at the cost of risk. When the player's health is equal to or above 50% of the maximum, the Shahanshah will deal 25% less damage than the Kukri. However, should the player have less than 50% of their max health, the weapon will deal 25% more damage.

The item was previously tested in the Team Fortress 2 Beta as the Beta Sniper Club 1.
