Sandvich make me strong!
The Heavy

The Buffalo Steak Sandvich is a secondary weapon for the Heavy and was released as part of the The Hibernating Bear set. It is simply a slab of (supposed) buffalo steak.

When eaten with primary fire, the weapon heals no damage to the Heavy, but bestows a multitude of buffs; move speed is increased to 311 HU/s (roughly 35% faster than the Heavy's normal walking speed), damage dealt and damage taken are delivered as Mini-Crits, and the player is restricted to using melee weapons for the duration of the buffs. The buffs last for a total of 15 seconds.

Should the player use secondary fire, the item will be thrown to the ground and functions as a pickup similar to the Sandvich. The primary fire effects are not applied on dropped Steaks.

Damage

None. The user gives and receives Mini-Crits for the duration. Also increases movement speed.

Previous Changes

December 22, 2010 Patch

  • The Buffalo Steak Sandwich's speed boosting effect no longer stacks on any other speed boosting effect (i.e., the effect of the Gloves of Running Urgently).

Bugs

  • Attempting to drop the Steak Sandvich will drop a normal Sandvich instead. It functions in the same way as a normal dropped Sandvich.
  • It's possible to get the achievement "Retire the Runner" by killing a Heavy under the effects of the Buffalo Steak Sandvich, possibly due to the Steak having the same effects as the Crit-a-Cola.
  • The remarks that the Heavy makes after consuming a Buffalo Steak Sandvich are identical to those after consuming a Sandvich.

Trivia

  • The Peyote Cactus was originally intended to go with the Hibernating Bear set instead of the Buffalo Steak Sandvich, however play-testers thought some people might find a guy in a Native American Head Dress eating some Peyote and going on a rage killing spree offensive - hence it being replaced by the Buffalo Steak Sandvich.[1]
