Tranquilizer Gun

On Hit: Color blind victim, slow their movement, and decrease ranged gun damage for 5s

Tranquilized enemies take guaranteed crits from melee attacks

This weapon will reload when not active


"In your dreams, chéri."

The Tranquilizer Gun is an alternative primary weapon for the Spy. It fires small darts with a team-colored tracer, dealing 20 damage regardless of range, that tranquilizes enemy players for five seconds. While tranquilized, that player will have their movement speed reduced by 20% and ranged damage (excluding afterburn and bleed) reduced by 30%, with a black-and-white colorblind effect that fades over time. In addition, all melee weapons, including the Spy's own Knife, will deal guaranteed critical damage against that player. The Tranquilizer Gun can also damage enemy buildings, but it will not apply the tranquilize effect.

The dart travels extremely fast, is 100% accurate, and is only affected by gravity by a small amount, making it viable to shoot enemies from a long distance away with minimal compensation. Like most projectiles, the dart can be airblasted by an enemy pyro.

Trivia

  • The Tranquilizer originates from Team Fortress Classic, and was originally intended to return in Team Fortress 2, making it as far as the game's first trailer. It is unknown what the Team Fortress 2 version's stats were.
  • Even though the Flight or Fight Day 3 update page states that "Tranquilized enemies now deal 20% less damage", the actual reduction in-game is 30%.
