The Heavy

The Cow is a melee weapon for the Heavy. It appears as a two-dimensional wooden cutout of a cow with perpendicular planks to keep it upright.

This weapon, when struck against enemies, has the ability of inflicting bleeding and milk status for 12 seconds. As a downside, the Heavy's movement speed is reduced by 20% whenever the Cow is the active weapon. The swing speed and damage are identical to the Fists.

The critical hit animation is an overhead swing with the flat side of the Cow. Should the critical hit connect with an enemy player, the Cow's head will shatter on impact, leaving a broken stump. This effect is similar to the Bottle and is purely cosmetic.

  • The item was added to the game.

Bugs

  • As the weapon uses the same taunt as the Minigun, it clips with the Heavy's hands and chest.
  • The weapon lacks a unique kill icon.

Trivia

  • The item was first seen as a static prop in 2Fort, featured in an out of bounds area in the RED team base. It serves as a visual representation of the agricultural facade.
    • Additionally, the sound of the Cow can be heard briefly in Trailer 2.
