Bat Outta Hell
“Let's go, let's go, let's go!” This article documents a recent addition. It may contain speculation, broken links or errors. You can help improve it by editing this page to include new information. |
The Bat Outta Hell is a melee weapon for all classes except for the Engineer and Spy. It is a skull with a jiggleboned lower jaw attached to a spine segment. This item can only be worn around Halloween or during a Full Moon; at other times of the year, it does not appear in gameplay, unless the server has Halloween mode enabled. However, it can be equipped at any time and can still be viewed on the loadout screen even when it is not visible during games.
This item functions identically to the wielder's default melee weapon.
The Bat Outta Hell was originally contributed to the Steam Workshop under the name "Yorick's Lament".
