The Medic

The Amputator is a melee weapon for the Medic, similar in appearance to the Bonesaw, but with angular edges and a distinct handle. When one taunts with the Amputator, all other players nearby are healed, displayed with the same effects as the Buff Banner or Battalion's Backup. The healing does not count towards the ÜberCharge percentage nor does the healing work for disguised or cloaked Spies.

It is included in the Medieval Medic set.

Bugs

  • There is a bug which makes the Medic invulnerable while taunting.

Trivia

  • Amputating a patient was quite common to prevent diseases to spread to other parts of the body. Its use sharply declined in the 1950s when medicine was able to save a patient more than amputation from diseases.
