The Widowmaker is a community-created promotional primary weapon for the Engineer. It is a futuristic, tan shotgun styled after the Widowmaker TX, a weapon available in Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
This weapon uses the Engineer's metal as its source of ammunition; each shot fired will consume 30 metal, making for a maximum of 6 shots able to be fired without additional metal, with no requirement to reload. Each point of damage done to an enemy player or building with the Widowmaker is returned to the Engineer as metal; as such, the amount of metal returned can be greater than the amount expended when fired if enough damage is dealt.
This item was awarded in Genuine quality to players who pre-purchased Deus Ex: Human Revolution on Steam before August 26, 2011.
The kill icon for the Widowmaker was contributed by Ani .
