Medic Robots appear in Mann vs. Machine as enemies. When spawned, their secondary weapon will always be trained on another robot, usually a giant, and will only heal that robot until it is destroyed, whereupon it will find another robot to heal.

Normal Variants

Über Medic

Icon	Name	Primary	Secondary	Melee	Attributes
	Über Medic (Type 1)	Syringe Gun	Medi Gun	Bonesaw	Spawns with full ÜberCharge  +100% faster ÜberCharge rate  +400% faster heal rate  Übercharge lasts 8 seconds (normal)

Icon	Name	Primary	Secondary	Melee	Attributes
	Über Medic (Type 2)	Syringe Gun	Medi Gun	Bonesaw	Spawns with full ÜberCharge  +400% faster ÜberCharge rate  -90% slower heal rate  ÜberCharge lasts 5 seconds (3 seconds shorter)

These Medics don't appear often as other robots, but when they do, they usually accompany Giant Robots, sometimes even as many as twelve Medics on one Giant. Über Medics are equipped with a Syringe Gun, Medi Gun, and Bonesaw. They spawn with full ÜberCharge and will deploy their charges on whatever robot they are healing as soon as the Medic or patient takes significant damage, although it is both possible and often desirable to inflict enough damage in a single attack to kill the Medic without giving them a chance to deploy their Übercharge. There are two kinds of this robot: one has a very fast heal rate, and the other has a much faster charge rate, but a slower heal rate and an ÜberCharge that lasts three seconds shorter. When Medic robots are separated from their heal target or cornered by a player, they will fight with their Syringe Guns and look for their patient.

Quick-Fix Medic

Icon	Name	Primary	Secondary	Melee	Attributes
	Quick-Fix Medic (Type 1)	Syringe Gun	Quick-Fix	Bonesaw	+900% faster heal rate  -90% slower ÜberCharge rate

Icon	Name	Primary	Secondary	Melee	Attributes
	Quick-Fix Medic (Type 2)	Syringe Gun	Quick-Fix	Bonesaw	—

Quick-Fix Medics heal teammates much faster than Über Medics but have a very slow ÜberCharge rate, and are also equipped with a Syringe Gun and Bonesaw. They tend to appear in larger numbers than Über Medics. A second variant of Quick-Fix Medic only has a standard heal and ÜberCharge rate.

Giant Variants

Giant Medic

Icon	Name	Secondary	Attributes
	Giant Medic	Quick-Fix	4500 HP  Spawns with full charge  +40% knockback resistance  +19900% faster heal rate  -50% movement speed

The Giant Medic heals its patient (almost always a Giant Robot) at 200 times the heal rate of the standard Quick-Fix, fast enough to instantly outheal any kind of damage the players can inflict. It spawns with a full Übercharge meter, and has a considerable amount of health, second only to Giant Heavies, "boss" giants, and Tanks. When the Giant Medic is heavily damaged, it may deploy its Ubercharge, completely refilling its health and essentially becoming indestructible until the charge is finished.

Icon	Name	Primary	Secondary	Hat	Attributes
	Giant Medic (Type 2)	Syringe Gun	Quick-Fix	Surgeon's Stahlhelm	4500 HP  +40% knockback resistance  +19900% faster heal rate  Regenerates 40 HP per second  -50% movement speed  -99% slower Übercharge rate

Although it doesn't have an Übercharge, it will regenerate health slowly, which can allow it to recover a large amount of health if left to do so.

Unused content

• There are three unused Medic robot types all using the Vaccinator in the game files. Each one uses a different resistance type on the Vaccinator.
• There are three unused Gatebot lights left in the game files. One adds a light to the chest and the back of the head, one adds a similar set of lights, but with more metal around them, and the other one adds two lights to the ear section of the head. The final Gatebot light also puts a light with a small cable hanging off of it, made to resemble a fez, on top of the head.

Trivia

• The wheel lacks a set of hitboxes, but instead uses the ones from the original Medic's legs despite them being off with the animations.
