I'm just getting warmed up.
The Sniper

The Darwin's Danger Shield is a craftable secondary item for the Sniper class. It appears as a crocodile hide, complete with tail, stretched over a broken wooden frame. A bird skull is tied to the body strap.

Similar to the Razorback, the weapon is a passive item, worn as a shield protecting the back. It provides an additional 25 max health to the Sniper wearing it, encouraging players to venture further into combat. It does not, however, protect the player from backstabs.

Trivia

Original design with legs.
  • The name of the weapon may be a reference to a multitude of things. Firstly, Darwin may refer to the capital of the Northern Territory in Australia, the Sniper's home country. Crocodiles are also often found around Darwin. On the other hand, Darwin may refer to Charles Darwin, who is known for proposing the scientific theory of natural selection.
  • The first version of the shield had jiggleboned legs, plus had the crocodile skin stretched over a full shield instead of being tanned on a stretching board, but these were removed in the creation process.[1]
