The '''Shovel''' is the melee weapon ~~of choice~~ for the [[Soldier]]. ~~This~~ folding shovel deals 65 damage ~~per hit~~, ~~and~~ is ~~useful for up close and personal encounters~~, ~~or for finishing an~~ enemy ~~when~~ Soldier~~'s Rocket Launcher and/or Shotgun~~ is out of ammo.

The '''Shovel''' is the default melee weapon for the [[Soldier]]. It is a worn-out folding trench shovel with a damaged wooden handle.

The Shovel deals 65 damage and attacks every 0.8 seconds. Unimpressive even by the low standards of melee weapons, the Soldier's slow speed makes landing hits a difficult task, even if his high health gives him a higher chance of survival. Attempting to close the gap by [[Jumping|rocket jumping]] is counter-productive, as that rocket would best be shot at the enemy you are trying to kill. Regardless, if the Soldier is out of ammo, cannot reload before he is killed, and cannot rocket jump away from the enemy trying to kill him, it will remain a functional weapon that is best used as a weapon of last resort.
