Basic Information
Used by:	Medic
Slot:	Unknown

The Syringe was originally intended to be the secondary weapon for the Medic. In the first trailer for Team Fortress 2, the Medic is seen holding it in his right hand. Functionally, it may have acted similarly to the Medkit from Team Fortress Classic. The weapon was removed before release however, as Valve wanted to add a healing weapon which would be easier to recognize for its purpose, and would fit in with their goal of providing easily identifiable class silhouettes. As a result, it was replaced by the Medi Gun with its conspicuous healing beam.

Damage

Unknown. Would heal allies.

Trivia

• A number of Syringes can be found inside a tray in an Engineer's level 2 or level 3 Dispenser.
