| − | It appears that any weapon from a crate is now a strange weapon, We need to fully explore these new weapons to see if they have any other unique characteristics--[[User:Nintyuk|Nintyuk]] 04:25, 24 June 2011 (PDT)
| |
| − | :There aren't any. They count kills and "level up"; seems to be the limit of their functionality. ~ '''[[User:Ath|Ath]]''' ([[User_talk:Ath|talk]]) 04:43, 24 June 2011 (PDT)

| − | The Chargin Targe doesn't appear to tally any kills even if you kill with the charge, probably because it's not an active weapon, but a passive one. I haven't submitted a bug report on this yet, so if anyone wants to, be my guest. [[User:The Riet|The Riet]] 18:05, 25 June 2011 (PDT)

| − | There needs to be a full list of all the weapons. It seems some weapons do not have a "strange" counterpart. [[User:Havox|Havox]] 03:05, 12 July 2011 (PDT)

| |
| − | The article stated that "Strange quality weapons can be found by unboxing Mann Co. Supply Crates of a certain series" ... I'm now editing to reflect Nintyuk's statement above that all weaponss from crates come out strange. Edit back if that statement is wrong.

| − | *Only series >19 have strange quality (crates added during/after the Uber Update), but someone said "do not re-add the list of Crate Series #'s that contain Strange weapons" in the comments._. So I'll just revert it, I guess. [[User:Rocket Ship BBQ|Rocket Ship BBQ]] 10:30, 8 August 2011 (PDT)

| − | :::Often times, people will use Unusual rarity, then leave something in the notes like "Ignore "Unusual" rarity, I'm looking for Strange" or something, as most trading sites such as the TF2 Trading Post don't have "Strange" rarity in the system yet. At least, that's what I did when I put in a trade on the trading post for Strange weapons. I selected "Unusual" [[User:404 User Not Found|404 User Not Found]] 13:37, 26 June 2011 (PDT)

| − | :::::Technically, [[Horseless_Headless_Horsemann%27s_Headtaker|there is one Unusual weapon]], but it's fairly common due to how easy it is to trade for one or obtain the components needed to craft it. [[User:ButteredToast|ButteredToast]] 05:38, 1 August 2011 (PDT)

| − | == Strange Weapon Drops ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | While I have no good solid evidence, I have heard a few people say they actually had strange weapons drop for them. Has anyone seen some more solid evidence of this being the case?
| |
| − | ::It may be another instance of that bug where people got Scrap/Reclaimed/Refined Metal as a "drop", when in actuality it was the crafting system or something failing to properly give the metal. This might be the case with the crates. People may not have received the weapon properly from the crate and then later obtained it as a drop.

| − | How would I proceed if I were to add a bug to the strange quality section?

| − | :My instinct would be to put it on its own page, specifying that the item is Strange. I'm not entirely sure, but this is supported by the lack of a 'Bugs' section on this page. [[User:Shane Alvarado|Shane Alvarado]] 17:26, 20 July 2011 (PDT)
| |
| − | ::Shane is correct, such information is not relevant to the description of item qualities; and should be placed on the weapon page in question, citing the strange requirement for reproduction. ~ '''[[User:Ath|Ath]]''' ([[User_talk:Ath|talk]]) 08:10, 21 July 2011 (PDT)

| |
| − | ::: Me having a wiki cap does not make me immune to criticism. Don't worry about it, but I will say that this page comes very close to be technical documentation (but we still make a point to not cross that line). Because of that those that wish to make changes need to have some level of knowledge of the files in the GCFs. In fact it is a prerequisite and this page could not exist in the state it does now if we simply went by in-game observations. -- [[User:Lagg|Lagg]] [[File:Backpack_Stickybomb_Launcher.png|24px|link=User_talk:Lagg]] 19:32, 7 August 2011 (PDT)

| − | ::::::: I'm well aware of the bug. Which is why I noted that how we document it here is correct and took a screenshot of the relevant .res block where the tuples were.
