Information

The Übersaw is an unlockable melee weapon for the Medic class and a Level 10 Bonesaw. As of a June 23, 2008 update, it is only necessary to get 20 medic achievements, excluding Milestone 1 and 2, to unlock the Übersaw. It is especially useful for taking out Spies that may be attempting to Backstab the Medic's heal target. The Übersaw has a 20% slower attack rate than the Bonesaw, but will charge any secondary Medic weapon by 25% per successful hit. Hitting a Scout under the effects of Bonk! with the Übersaw will still charge the secondary Medic weapon; however, it will still not damage the Scout. The Übersaw has a large needle in the middle, which fills up a vial in the Übersaw with a team colored fluid as the Medic's ÜberCharge meter increases. Its critical hit animation is an upwards sawing motion.

The needle fills up as you heal teammates. If you deploy your Übercharge and switch to the Übersaw, you can see the needle slowly draining.

Changes to the Übersaw have been tested in the beta. One possible change is a -25% damage nerf, while another is the Medic losing 20 health on each successful hit. However, since these changes are still in beta, they may be changed or scrapped entirely.

Taunting with the Übersaw equipped will perform a deadly Spinal Tap attack. Doing so counts as two swings of the Übersaw, and as a result, adds 50% to the wielding Medic's Übercharge.
