 The Powerjack |
|
| “ | Vintage 1950's automobile jack paired with an equally painful car battery. Packs a devastating melee punch with the weight of the battery and steel.
— Powerjack publicity blurb
|
” |
The Powerjack is a community-created melee weapon for the Pyro. It is an antique automobile jack with a team-colored car battery strapped to its base with tan leather straps.
This weapon deals identical damage to the Fire Axe, and upon killing an enemy with this weapon, the player will be awarded 25 health. While this weapon is active, the player is granted a 15% speed bonus. As a downside, the player suffers from an additional 20% weakness to all damage sources when the Powerjack is active.
The kill icon for the Powerjack was contributed by Psyke .
