The Vaccinator is a secondary weapon weapon for the Medic. It roughly resembles a Medi Gun, with a team-colored liquid-filled glass attached to the lower middle section, a small monitor left of the main body and additional cables and valves.
The main feature of the weapon is the Medic's ability to select the desired resistance that will be applied both to him and his heal target. The player can cycle through bullet, explosive and fire resistances by pressing the Special Attack button (default key: MOUSE3) and an appropriate icon will appear over the ÜberCharge meter.
Compared to the the stock Medi Gun, the weapon has a 50% faster ÜberCharge build rate but a 66% slower overheal rate. While actively healing, the Medic and his heal target gain a 10% resistance to the selected type of damage and the before mentioned icon will appear above the health meter on both Medic and heal target's HUD and over their heads. When the ÜberCharge is deployed, both the Medic and his heal target gain 75% damage resistance to the selected type of damage and in addition the Medic heals 25% of matched incoming damage to his heal target.
Instead of a single ÜberCharge bar, the Vaccinator builds up to four smaller bars of ÜberCharge, which can be deployed independently of each other. It is not possibile to change the type of resistance in the middle of an ÜberCharge, however keeping the alternate fire button pressed maintains the ÜberCharge through all the charges left with no interruptions in between.
The Vaccinator was originally contributed to the Steam Workshop under the name "The Hot Coffee".
