This article is about the Claidheamh Mòr itself. For other uses of the name, see Claymore (disambiguation).
| “ | Right about now you must be wondering how in God's name you're supposed to pronounce Claidheamohmor. The answer: you don't! If you're remotely near one you'll be dead long before you're done injuring your vocal chords anyway!
— Fancy vs. Nasty Update description
|
” |
The Claidheamh Mòr, pronounced ˈkleɪf mɔər , is a community-made melee weapon for the Demoman. It is a Template:W augmented with a crossguard with side rings and a green and team colored Template:W wrapped around the grip. The blade is splattered with blood.
Similar to the Eyelander, this weapon has a large melee range and cannot roll for random critical hits. However, the Claidheamh Mòr only decreases its wielder's health by 15. It also will not collect heads from decapitated victims, and as such, killing enemies with the Claidheamh Mòr will not increase health or speed. When equipped with the Chargin' Targe or Splendid Screen, the sword will allow the Demoman to charge for an additional 0.5 seconds, effectively increasing the length and duration of the charge. Additionally, as an undocumented benefit, by completing the full charge, the recharge of the bar in the HUD is decreased by 2 seconds, resulting in a full charge being ready in 10 seconds.
Taunting with the Claidheamh Mòr will perform the Demoman's Decapitation kill taunt, but will depict the Eyelander's kill icon upon a successful beheading.
The weapon was originally created for the Fancy vs. Nasty Update as a replacement for the Eyelander, and has since been officially added to the game.

Update history

Bugs
- One of the spikes on the blade clips with the Demoman's head in world view.
- On the kill icon, the Claidheamh Mòr's left side of its hilt curves upwards, while the right side curves downwards, while on the actual weapon's model, both sides of the Claidheamh Mòr's hilt curve downwards.
Trivia
- Claidheamh mòr is the Template:W form of Template:W, literally translated to "sword big". It is pronounced "clai", as in the name "Claire" - "v" or "ph" - "more".
- Although it is named after the Scottish Claymore sword, it appears to be more closely modeled after a Swiss or German Template:W, with parrierhaken guards above the Template:W.
