The '''Überspritze''' is an alternative melee weapon for the [[Medic]]. It is an oversized, metal syringe containing a team colored liquid displayed through measuring glass. It has two finger rings around the bottom and has blood stains around the tip. The liquid inside increases alongside the Medic's ÜberCharge percentage.
The '''Überspritze''' is an alternative melee weapon for the [[Medic]]. It's an oversized, bloodstained syringe containing a team-colored liquid. The liquid inside increases with the Medic's ÜberCharge percentage.


When the Überspritze hits an enemy, 25% ÜberCharge is given to the user regardless of damage. This occurs even on cloaked enemies, but not invulnerable or disguised ones, nor enemies that are cloaked and disguised at the same time. As a penalty, the Überspritze removes 10 points of maximum health from the user, bringing the [[Medic]]'s base health down to 140 (215 when overhealed). Its stats are otherwise identical to the [[Bonesaw]]. Because the Überspritze can increase the Über meter faster than it drains, it's possible to indefinitely sustain an ÜberCharge by attacking enemies while one is active.
Hitting an enemy player with the Überspritze gives 25% ÜberCharge to the user. This also occurs on cloaked enemies, but not invulnerable or disguised ones. As a penalty, the Überspritze reduces the maximum health of the user from 150 to 140 (210 when overhealed).


Taunting with the Überspritze, or pressing the alternate fire key, activates the Überslice kill taunt, where the Medic stabs into an enemy and pulls the weapon out. The initial stab deals 1 damage and stuns for 3.7 seconds, filling the Über meter by 25%. The pull out deals 500 damage, does not stun, and fills the Über meter by 100%. The initial stab stuns invulnerable enemies, but does not give Über. The pull out gives Über on invulnerable enemies, or regardless of if the enemy dies. The taunt has a longer range than the regular melee swing and cannot deal critical hits, but can deal mini-crits. It will not damage buildings.
Because the Überspritze can increase the Über meter faster than it drains, it's possible to indefinitely sustain an ÜberCharge by attacking enemies while one is active.
