Best Team Fortress 2 Spy Weapons
Best Spy weapons in Team Fortress 2. Sappers are not included.This is my go-to choice when I'm a Spy. Using the Dead Ringer helps to get out of dangerous situations, especially after a backstab. It fools a lot of people, as it's not usually expected. With the new speed boost upon use, it is more powerful than ever. Overall, it's the best Spy cloak to date.
No doubt, this weapon is great. The Dead Ringer itself looks awesome, and you can survive one round without getting killed. Highly recommended.
The only problem with this weapon is that you turn into a crumpled body that looks like it was chewed up by a grinder. Other than that, it's a great weapon for getting away from battle.
This weapon is great in a game where there are many players since a backstab kill will not show on the kill feed, nor will the victim scream. You will also disguise as that victim, which will make you more unsuspecting to your enemies than ever.
This knife has a very steep learning curve since you can't disguise, but if you backstab someone, you will turn into that person. I guess you could call it Your Eternal Reward!
You backstab a Heavy being healed by a Medic.
You backstabbed the Heavy while the Medic was looking away.
You look at your team.
Medic heals you.
Later, you cloak and become the Medic.
Kill the whole team from behind.
10/10
This is probably the best spy knife you can have. It basically has all the benefits of the stock knife while allowing you to survive Pyro spy checks. Using it along with the Dead Ringer helps to fool Pyros into thinking you've died, as you won't end up on fire. The cracking ice noise can be revealing, but if you're stealthy, it won't be a problem. All in all, one of the best spy knives out there.
This knife is good for surviving against attacks from the Spy's most feared enemy: Pyros. It makes you completely fireproof for 2 seconds when attacked by anything fire-based, and it is also a silent killer.
Great for standing still when someone almost killed you. With the regeneration, you could spawn camp the intel without anyone knowing. It's great for getting away from a huge group of enemies when you're low on health.
Using this invis watch will make you practically invisible. You could be standing right outside the enemy spawn room without anybody noticing you at all! The only downside is the faster cloak drain rate.
You can stay invisible forever with this.
Great weapon.
Equip this with any invis watch, and you can be a terrifying Spy. The bonus cloak duration on hit makes the Spy's job much easier.
x10 mode = really long cloak time.
Normal gameplay = still really long cloak time.
Good weapon. Good life.
Amazing, really long cloak time. You can still get kills with this weapon.
This is really helpful when it's not possible to use a knife, like with Your Eternal Reward. You have to use the Ambassador, same with the Spy-cicle. I love how it does 102 damage on a headshot, but I wish it could do a regular headshot like a sniper rifle.
What kind of Spy can deal massive damage without relying solely on backstabs? A Spy with the Ambassador! This weapon can make you deadly even if you're not focused on backstabbing.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those with holes through their heads, and those wielding the Ambassador.
The knife. Nothing too special, but it's still a deadly weapon that lets you backstab people.
I honestly do not like the stock knife. It is only useful in x10 mode.
But if you do not have any other options (like me), then use it. Go backstab some people.
The knife is basically a great weapon! I use the reskin "The Black Rose."
It's pretty useful in some circumstances. After backstabbing opponents (which is likely), you save crits that you can use to shoot your enemies with ease. The problem with this weapon is actually missing your shots, and without crits, this weapon is useless. Before the update, it was pretty weak, but after the update, it quickly became my favorite.
This thing can deal a lot of damage. Each backstab and building you destroy with your sapper makes you even stronger. Minus 15% damage? Who cares? Each backstab gives you a crit shot, and you are a Spy.
Only does 20% more damage while disguised now.
Still a good weapon.
The weapon does 20% extra damage, making you almost like a battle Spy.
It's Japanese. Ninjas use it. What else do you want to hear?
First of all, the Spy never, ever goes into any firefights unless he has less than 5 brain cells. But moving on, if you're sneaky, you can pull off a stab and gain as much HP as a Soldier. Yeah, I know, it doesn't sound bad, does it? Basically, if you backstab someone in the middle of other people, you'll have enough HP to make it out alive. Plus, if you're in the middle of a lot of people and can't get a health pack, you can just trickstab someone and gain their health. It works great with the Dead Ringer and also helps with the Cloak and Dagger. I have used it with both.
The Newcomers
The Sharp Dresser is a very unique knife in its own way. It can only be crafted, and the chances of crafting it are only 1 out of 6. I tried crafting it 7 times, and finally, on my 8th try, I succeeded. I also know some people who have crafted at least 11 times and still have failed. The default knife is already really good, but its appearance isn't too great. The Sharp Dresser knows better. This is my first choice knife.
Sharp Dresser. This is the coolest knife ever. It's for experienced players and has its very own backstab animation. This and Your Eternal Reward are the best knives for Spy.
Ap-sap leaves no gibs of buildings after it finishes, so Engineers won't have metal to rebuild afterward. Also, if you're bored, you can take it out and listen to it speaking.
Great and reliable weapon to use. Some people prefer the Dead Ringer, but the Invis Watch is just as good. It just needs to be used more carefully and in different situations.
The best watch. It's not a cheap "get-out-of-jail-free card." *glares at Dead Ringer*
Unbelievably useful! Most people think it's useless because it drains your health, and you can just collect gibs from enemies to refill your cloak. But if there aren't enough gibs, you're in trouble. The Big Earner works REALLY WELL with the Dead Ringer since it must be fully charged before use.
The +30% cloak you gain when you kill lets you easily cloak after each kill and hide so you can go for another assault when ready. But the -15 health is a pain, though.
So, this takes away your health, and that's bad, but the Kunai does the same thing and is the best knife? Dude, the Big Earner makes you the fastest man alive.
Use this over the Diamondback. Diamondback Spies are cringe.
Just a stock weapon, but it can be deadly when used at the right times!
It is the stock gun, but it is the BEST. Notice that I did that in caps.
