The Medic

The Amputator is a melee weapon for the Medic and was released as part of the The Medieval Medic set. It is a saw with angular edges and a distinct team-colored handle with the Medic's logo in the middle.

Despite being almost identical to the Bonesaw, when the player taunts with this weapon a Medicating Melody is produced and all nearby teammates are healed. This process allows multiple healings to occur at once.

Should teammates within the taunt's area successfully kill an enemy, the Medic will be credited with an assist kill.

Notes

  1. In mid taunt with the Amputator, the player could disconnect from the server, but the healing effect would remain for surrounding injured players, giving them infinitely regenerating health, even after death, until they disconnected or the map changed.
