The Engineer testing ranged weapons

The Wingstick is a promotional Miscellaneous item for the Engineer. It is a three-bladed propeller with cloth wrapped around one of the blades, hanging from the Engineer's belt next to his orange power cord.

This item was awarded in Genuine quality to players who pre-ordered RAGE before 10AM PDT on August 8, 2011. It will also be awarded in Unique quality to players who purchase the Quakecon Bundle before 10AM PDT on August 6th, 2012.

Update history

August 3, 2011 Patch

  • The Wingstick was added to the game.

August 9, 2011 Patch

  • Updated the Wingstick so it can be purchased/crafted/traded/found.

Bugs

  • Because the Wingstick lacks team-colored yellow, on team BLU the wires attached to the item will not match the colors of the Engineer's power cord.
  • This item's level does not show up in the backpack or loadout. This is because the item type is assigned to a text string that does not exist.

Trivia

  • The Wingstick is featured in the trailers of RAGE; it is a boomerang-like weapon that can be thrown, with the cloth on one end serving as a handle.
  • RAGE was one of several games not available for pre-order in Russia, originally preventing consumers in this region from directly earning the item in Genuine quality.
