![]() Granted or earned critboosts from the Kritzkrieg's ÜberCharge or Crit Boosted Power Up Canteens are converted to mini-crits instead. The Cow Mangler is unable to deal random or guaranteed critical hits. ![]() However, damage dealt to enemies is reduced by items that offer explosive or fire resistances. The charged shot can destroy enemy stickybombs and disables hit enemy buildings for four seconds. This can damage and ignite the Soldier who fired it if they are close enough to the impact. This shot deals mini-crit damage to players and inflicts 6 seconds of afterburn damage, at the same rate as the Flame Thrower. This charging period lasts two seconds, after which a single charged shot is fired with the same speed and blast radius of a primary fire blast. During this process, the entire Mangler bar is consumed, the user cannot switch weapons and the Soldier's movement speed is reduced from 80% (normal) to 27%. When the Mangler bar is full, pressing the secondary fire button ( default key: MOUSE2) causes the weapon to begin charging up. The weapon does not incorporate the traditional ammo reserve used by other weapons and hence has unlimited ammunition, a feature it shares with the Righteous Bison, Pomson 6000, and Manmelter. After the bar is depleted, it is recharged through a reloading animation where the lever on the Mangler's side is cranked. The Cow Mangler 5000 features a "Mangler" bar in the HUD which serves as an indication of its ammunition clip. Projectiles fired travel at the same speed as those from the default Rocket Launcher at 1100 Hammer units per second (approximately 76 km/h or 47 mph). ![]() The blasts fired function similarly to rocket projectiles as such, rocket jumps can be executed similarly, and shots can be reflected by enemy Pyros. This weapon can fire up to four blasts of team-colored energy that deal about 20% damage to buildings compared to the default Rocket Launcher. Several portions of the weapon are team-colored, and arcs of electricity appear periodically on the frontal nodes. It is a large, shoulder-fired, retrofuturistic raygun. The Cow Mangler 5000 is a primary weapon for the Soldier.
