| |
| − | The '''Manmelter''' is a [[Weapons#pyrosecondary|secondary weapon]] for the [[Pyro]]. It is a grey, retro-futuristic laser {{botignore|pistol}}, with a small vial that contains team-colored [[Jigglebones|liquid]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | The weapon fires flaming bolts of energy that are similar to the flares fired by the [[Flare Gun]], but travel 50% faster. Unlike the other flare guns, the Manmelter's energy bolts do not inflict additional damage to ignited players. The Manmelter itself has unlimited [[ammunition]], and cannot fire random critical hits. It requires reloading, but lacks a reload animation; instead, the Manmelter will play a distinct but quiet sound, similar to that of the [[Machina]] when it's fired without scoping, and produces a small spark slightly ''after'' it is ready to be fired again. When holding the primary-fire button (or firing as fast as possible), this sound and spark effect will not play.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Holding the alt-fire button will activate a vacuum-like function, pulling up dust from the ground and extinguishing teammates that are on [[fire]]. It extinguishes at roughly the same interval as continually airblasting with a flamethrower, although the player is required to press and hold alt-fire again to keep the vacuum going after they have extinguished a teammate. For each ally extinguished, the Manmelter will grant the user 20 health (similarly to a compression blast) and stores a guaranteed critical hit for later use, similarly to the [[Frontier Justice]] and [[Diamondback]]. Up to 35 crits can be stored in this fashion, all lost upon [[death]]. Firing a crit from the Manmelter shoots a burst of fire from the gun.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Enemies killed by the Manmelter suffer a distinctive death by incineration, wherein they disintegrate into smoldering orange cinders that quickly fade away.
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Taunt]]ing with the Manmelter equipped will perform the [[Hadouken]] kill taunt. As the taunt kill shares the properties of the Manmelter, enemies hit by the Hadouken will also disintegrate into cinders.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This item was named the "Manmelter 3600 ZX" in promotional materials from the [[Official TF2 Blog]] and Weta Workshop.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Manmelter was later [http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=6527 contributed] to the [[Steam Workshop]], at [[Valve]]'s request.

| |
| − | * If a friendly Pyro is inflicted by afterburn from the [[Gas Passer]], and the Pyro extinguishes the friendly Pyro, they will recieve points and health, but not a stored critical. <!-- Above bug needs clarification for other classes -->
