For players that earn one third of the 36 new medic achievements, they will be given a new syringe gun. Called "The Blutsaugher," this new weapon no longer has the ability to score critical hits against an opponent. Instead it will draw health from enemies each time a syringe hits. Especially useful as a weapon to retreat away from the fight while staying alive.

The Critzcrieg
Once a medic has earned two thirds of the achievements, they will be granted "The Critzcrieg." This new medigun uses its ubercharge not for invulnerability, but to give its recipient 100% chance to fire critical ordinance. Medics and the player they are charging need to be careful though, because as much fun as it is to fire critical rockets as fast as you can, the other team will see what you're up to and try to put a quick stop to your plan.

The Ubersaw
For the determined medic that has earned all 36 of the new achievements, they will find themselves the proud owner of "The Ubersaw," which will take damage done in melee attacks and convert it directly to ubercharge. Four hits with this new weapon will fully charge whatever medigun the medic has equipped.

The second one I'm cautious about. I can definitely see some balancing issues, although I'd like to hope Valve sees them too and has addressed them.

The third one sounds pretty ridiculous, although to be honest I can't see a medic able to get in four bonesaw hits and get away long enough to set up the uber happening very often. Also, iirc some of the medic achievements will be frickin' hard to get, so this isn't something people will get out of the box. Of the three I can definitely see almost everyone choosing this one over the normal bonesaw though. :S

I'm definitely still on the fence about the weapons, but I love the idea of more achievements. Just neat things to try out to keep the class interesting.

I do like the train thingy though, especially how it blows up and kills you when you win XD.
