The Blutsauger is an unlockable primary weapon for the Medic class. It is similar in appearance to the Syringe Gun, but has a solid, partially team-colored and pill-shaped tank in place of the syringe canister. A team-colored heartbeat monitor line is painted on its sides.
This gun fires syringe projectiles at a speed of 990 Hammer units/61.88 feet per second, similarly to the default Syringe Gun. Additionally, whenever a projectile hits an enemy, three health is replenished to the player – indicated by a team-colored medical cross appearing over a Medic – and a green '+3' appears on the bottom of the HUD. (However, successful hits on a disguised Spy do not display the '+3'.)
As compensation, the Blutsauger reduces a Medic's passive healing ability by 2 HP per second, so a Medic that has recently taken damage will regenerate 1 HP/sec, at a maximum of 4 HP/sec. Like the Syringe Gun, the Blutsauger's projectiles have a travel time and follow an arced trajectory, so it is necessary to lead a moving target and aim upward to compensate for distance.
The Blutsauger is automatically given to any player who obtains the Medic Milestone 1 acheivement.
The kill icon for the Blutsauger was contributed by NeoDement.
