The Demoman is the damage dealer in Team Fortress 2. Just like in Team Fortress Classic, the Demoman works with a grenade launcher. The launcher fires the classic grenades which explodes when collide with an enemy player or an enemy building, but they explode automatically 3 to 4 seconds after they hit a ceiling, a wall or the ground. The new Sticky bombs remember on the second grenade type of the Demoman from Team Fortress Classic. As the name suggests these bombs sticks on ceilings, walls and the ground and explode on the player’s command. By pressing the fire button longer, the sticky bombs fly even further.

A Demoman is useful in both offensive and defensive gameplay. Sticky bombs help to defend a Control Point or other key positions. When attacking, his grenades can wipe out enemy players in no time when hit.

    The Bootlegger is a primary weapon for the Demoman. It is a single pirate's boot and a peg leg. Used when a pirate loses his leg in battle, the same way as the Demoman uses an eye patch (He loses his eye in battle.). This set is Pirate themed.
    
    This weapon functions in exactly the same way as Ali Baba's Wee Booties.

  • Ali Baba's Wee Booties

    
    • +100% turning control while charging
    • +25 max health on wearer

    Ali Baba's Wee Booties are a set of primary weapons for the Demoman. They are a pair of steel pointed boots, curved slightly at the tip.
    
    These boots provide the player with a 25 health bonus. In addition, it allows for a doubled increase in turning control while charging with either the Chargin Targe or Splendid Screen, allowing the Demoman's charge to be maneuvered much easier.

  • Loch-n-Load

    
    • +20% damage done
    • +25% projectile speed
    • Launched bombs shatter on surfaces
    • -60% clip size

    The Loch-n-Load is a community-made primary weapon for the Demoman. It is a break-action grenade launcher, with separate barrels for firing its two loaded grenades.
    
    The weapon fires grenades that travel at approximately 1331 Hammer units per second, or around 56 miles per hour. These grenades inflict slightly more damage than the Grenade Launcher upon a direct hit; however, the grenades will shatter harmlessly upon hitting anything other than an enemy player or building, causing no damage whatsoever. The grenades additionally deal increased self-damage to the Demoman who fired them, making close combat riskier.

  • Grenade Launcher

    
    • Damage: 64 - 132
    • Critical damage: 284 - 296
    • Total shots: 16 + 4 in the weapon

    With the grenade launcher, the Demoman can deal much damage in no time. Though, the grenades explodes by direct contact with an enemy player or an enemy building, otherwise they explode automatically 2 to 3 seconds after hitting a ceiling, a wall or the ground.

    The color of the lights differ between RED and BLU teams, RED team has red, yellow and green lights whereas BLU has blue, yellow and green lights. These weapons can be obtained by unlocking a Naughty Christmas Crate.
    
    The weapons were added in the Australian Christmas 2011 update.

  • Splendid Screen

    

    The Splendid Screen is a shield for the Demoman. It is an iron shield with four thick knobs in the cardinal directions, and a large boss in the middle.
    
    Compared to the Chargin' Targe, the Splendid Screen provides halved fire and explosive resistances. However, its charge ability is much more potent; there is no minimum distance required to deliver damage with a shield bash, and a successful charge bash delivers 70% more damage.

  • Sticky Jumper

    
    • + 200% max primary ammo on wearer
    • No self inflicted blast damage taken
    • -100% damage done
    • -75 max health on wearer
    • No random critical hits
    • Wearer cannot carry the intelligence briefcase

    The Sticky Jumper is a training secondary weapon for the Demoman class. Its appearance is identical to the Stickybomb Launcher.
    
    As a training item, the Sticky Jumper fires completely harmless Stickybombs, allowing players to freely practice sticky jumping techniques. The ammo count for the weapon is also tripled, giving the user forty eight extra Stickybombs to use. Unfortunately, the Demoman's damage vulnerabilities are greatly increased.
    
    Additionally, due to the self explosion protection, the user will take no damage from grenades shot from their own Grenade Launcher or Loch-n-Load, nor the explosion from the Ullapool Caber. If the player causes the explosion of a Pumpkin bomb, the damage done to the player will be nullified, but can still be used to harm enemies.

  • Chargin Targe

    

    Since the Soldier vs Demoman update, the Chargin Targe replaces the Stickybomb launcher. The shield increases it\'s werarers resistance against fire by 50% - against explosive damage by 50%.
    
    Furthermore, the shield enables a charge on the enemy. In doing so, the melee weapon is strenghened. Hitting your enemy with the melee weapon while charging at medium distance will result in a mini-crit hit, at high distance it will result in a critical hit..
    

  • Scottish Resistance

    
    • Damage:120
    • Crit-Damage:353
    • Total shots: 36 Stickys + 8 in the weapon

    With the Scottish Resistance, up to 14 stickybombs can be layed down. Plus, it can destroy enemy stickybombs. Furthermore, demoman gains the ability of detontaing seperate groups of his stickybombs.. So, several areas stay controlled and guarded. To detonate several groups of bombs, aim at them and press the button for secondary attack, as always.
    
    Of course, everything comes at price. As boosted defensive weapon, the SR is not designed for close range combat . The time to detonate the sticky bomb amounts to 0.4 seconds and with that its longer than the common stickybomb launcher's time.
    

  • Stickybomb Launcher

    
    • Damage: 120
    • Minicrit-Damage: 162
    • Crit-Damage: 353
    • Shots: 8 Stickys
    • Total Shots: 32 Stickys

    The primary purpose for the Sticky grenade launcher is to place sticky bombs for defensive purposes. The sticky bombs can be placed nearly at anyplace and can be detonated by command . They are an excellent choice to destroy enemy positions.Only disadvantages are high reload time and that they can be destroyed by enemy firearms.

  • Conscientious Objector

    
    • This item functions identically to the wielder's default melee weapon.

    The Conscientious Objector is a weapon equippable by all classes with the exception of the Engineer and the Spy. It is an uprooted road sign, with a worn sheet of paper bearing the Team Fortress 2 logo nailed onto the front; the image can be replaced with another by using the Decal Tool.

    This weapon functions in exactly the same way as the Bottle.

  • Nessie's Nine Iron

    
    • No random critical hits
    • -25 max health on wearer

    The Nessie's Nine Iron is a community-created melee weapon for the Demoman. It has the appearance of a golf club.

  • Persian Persuader

    
    • +100% increase in charge recharge rate
    • All ammo collected becomes health
    • No random critical hits

    The Persian Persuader is a melee weapon for the Demoman. It is a scimitar with a brass hilt and a bloodied blade.
    
    Having the weapon equipped doubles the recharge rate of the charge of the Chargin' Targe or Splendid Screen, allowing for more frequent use of the ability. In addition, it converts any ammo collected into health. If the Demoman's health is full he will receive ammo.

  • Claidheamohmor

    
    • 0.5 sec increase in charge duration
    • No random critical hits
    • -15 max health on wearer

    The Claidheamh Mòr, pronounced ˈkleɪf mɔər , is a community-made melee weapon for the Demoman. It is a greatsword augmented with a crossguard with side rings and a green and team colored tartan wrapped around the grip. The blade is splattered with blood.
    
    Similar to the Eyelander, this weapon has a large melee range and cannot roll for random critical hits. However, the Claidheamh Mòr only decreases its wielder's health by 15. It also will not collect heads from decapitated victims, and as such, killing enemies with the Claidheamh Mòr will not increase health or speed. When equipped with the Chargin' Targe, the sword will allow the Demoman to charge for an additional 0.5 seconds, effectively increasing the length and duration of the charge. Additionally, as an undocumented benefit, by completing the full charge, the recharge of the bar in the HUD is decreased by 2 seconds, resulting in a full charge being ready in 10 seconds.
    
    Taunting with the Claidheamh Mòr will perform the Demoman's Decapitation kill taunt.
    
    The weapon was originally created for the Fancy vs. Nasty Update as a replacement for the Eyelander, and has since been officially added to the game.
