His primary weapon is the Radiation Blaster. It poisons plants, dealing three damage to them every second for around five seconds unless they are hit by another toxic attack, in which case the duration is reset.
It deals 15 impact damage at long range and 20 impact damage in close quarters. At point blank range, his weapon deals 25 spread damage.
An alternate ability of Sticky Explody Ball, Mega Heal Bomb is a huge ball like the Sticky Explody Ball with a bigger radius. Heals all zombies in its radius by 50 health.
An alternate ability of Warp, Energy Warp allows the Scientist to transform into pure energy (he is invincible in this state). The Scientist is able to travel freely but cannot jump or attack. It also gains a small speed boost.
An alternate ability of Zombie Heal Station, Armored Heal Station heals at a slower rate than the Zombie Health Station, and self-destructs the same time as the Zombie Heal Station. Its incredible size allows players to jump on it to get to most buildings.
The Heal Beam of Science is the Scientist's first activatable ability. Similar to Heal Beam, it will heal any zombie targeted by it, healing faster the closer the Scientist is to the healed target.

Strategies[]
With[]
Dr. Toxic is great in objective gamemodes as just by being near plants, he damages them. Keep your team alive using your healing abilities and try to flank your targets. Running straight at your opponents is not recommeneded, as your small health pool means that you can be vanquished pretty quickly. If you want to get closer to them, use your warp. Your damage at long range is good, but always try to get right up in your opponents face for maximum damage. One thing to be aware of while playing as Dr. Toxic is that plants will notice when you are by them, so it can be harder to sneak by plants because your toxic aura will poison them, and they will probably notice you. If you don't want to engage in combat with plants, you should try to stay away from them.
Against[]
Dr. Toxic is a tricky Scientist to get around. Try to keep your distance from him. If he gets too close to you, you will start taking damage (even if he doesn't shoot you) from his toxic aura. Shoot him from a distance where he is less effective and you should be fine. If you are a chomper try to ambush him from behind because, even though you will take toxic damage from being near him, you should be able to swallow him.

Trivia[]
Dr. Toxic actually resembles radioactivity more than toxicity. This is because the symbol on his blaster is the universal warning sign for radioactivity; this is a very common mistake in media. The game also mentions his weapon of choice is Urbrainium which is a parody of Uranium, a radioactive metal.
In terms of toxicity, the only thing toxic about this variant could be radiation poisoning, which is harmful to living organisms.
He can still take toxic damage, despite having a gas mask and being a toxic variant.
This is also the case with Toxic Pea and any other Toxic Variant.
He is one of three Scientist variants that wear two shoes, the other being the Paleontologist and the Zoologist.
In Garden Warfare 2, the glass in his gas mask is less reflective, making it easier to see his face.
His Radiation Blaster's appearance, the way it fires and its projectiles strongly resembles the Gamma Gun from Fallout 4.
It could also be compared to three nuclear reactors.
For some reason, the hat icon in the character booth is the same one as the Marine Biologist’s.
