The Soldier

The Frying Pan is a promotional melee weapon for the Soldier and Demoman. It is a worn cast-iron skillet with a film of grease on the cooking surface and two spout-like openings on the sides.

This weapon functions exactly the same way as the Shovel or Bottle. Upon contact with a surface or player, it will play sound files from Left 4 Dead 2.

The Frying Pan, along with Ellis' Cap, are given to all owners of Left 4 Dead 2.

The kill icon for the Frying Pan was contributed by H.Gaspar.

Bugs

  • Taunting with the Frying Pan whilst playing as the Demoman will result in the Demoman attempting to drink out of the weapon. The weapon will also clip through his leg during the animation.
  • When taunting with the Frying Pan as the Soldier, the underside of the pan will just barely meet the Soldier's helmet.
  • In client view, the weapon is positioned at an angle, clipping slightly into the hand of the Demoman.

Trivia
