According to Valve, the next Team Fortress 2 update is tentatively scheduled to go live on Thursday, April 17, or possibly on Friday, April 18. With the news, come extra details on the major makeover for the Medic class. Check out the latest list of the 36 new Medic achievements that’ll be heading towards a series of tubes near you.
Helpful healers can look forward to three new unique items to customize their Medic with as they unlock the 36 new achievements.
The Blutsauger: Earn 12 of the 36 new Medic Achievements and you’ll be able to pimp your doc with this replacement for your Medic’s Syringe Gun. It’ll feed you 3 health points anytime you hit an enemy, but the drawback is that it will never yield a critical hit. This weaponsounds especially useful for keeping you alive while retreating from an enemy. Say goodbye to those Heavy-killing Pyros trying to chase you down.
The Critzcrieg: Earning 24 Medic Achievements will unlock this new Medigun. Instead of granting you and your target invulnerability, using an uber-charge will grant your target a 100% critical hit chance. We’re not sure whether Medics will like giving up invulnerability for critical hits. While there’s no doubt that unlimited critical hits will cause a lot of damage, we’re not sure how effective this new weapon will be for making a big push forward. Perhaps this new weapon will lead to some creative new ways for Medics and other classes to work together.
The Ubersaw: Only the most hardcore Medics will receive access to this new weapon once they earn all 36 of the new Medic Achievements. The Ubersaw will charge your uber meter by 25% with each hit. So the next time you’re caught unawares and whack an opponent with a melee strike, you’ll be well on your way to being “fully charged.”
Above: Each of the new Medic weapons has a really cool bonus. But none of them come without a drawback. Even the Ubersaw comes with a 20% speed cut
