Golden Wrench

There's going to be a limited number of these things (going by the first line), so keep an eye out and post here if you find a secret link, don't post on the forums. -Firestorm 01:02, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

I really want one of these love playing as engie .. "The man with the golden wrench" -Pokeymehlljordan 12:38, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

In-game joke

His name is DELL.

3rd life sustaining system built for the Announcer?

It sort-of makes sense. If you assume that Emily the Maidservant is the announcer, Saxton Hale needs no such life support, and Blutarch and Redmond also have devices, then it would make sense that the Announcer is using life support. Either that, or the Engi built a time machine, and is keeping Zephaniah alive. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Michael (talk) • contribs)

Guitar unlock?

Any theories? I doubt it's a melee, have you ever seen a guitar fix anything? Let alone a sentry? -- Smashman... _{(t • s)} 09:29, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

most likely a buff Valve have a thing about minicrits--Markd 09:36, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Ability to move buildings?

This was hidden somewhere on the update page. Significant? -- MistahFixIt 03:56, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

Very significant, but still speculation at this point. Do not publish it on any article yet — WindPower 04:30, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

Basic Strategy

Fix it. It's full of crap. Only supposed to be the actual tips in-game there. All strategy in the Engineer strategy page. -- Smashman... _{(t • s)} 11:28, 10 July 2010 (UTC)

48 dps mini-sentry

48 seems to be the determined dps, rather than 32. Should be changed? Also, why is it 100-125 hp?

What? Fire rate is the same as a level 1, just with halved damage. Why isn't it 32 DPS? </totalconfusion> -The Neotank ( | Talk) 16:04, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Fire rate is NOT the same, it's 50% faster (Valve never told us though). see the video here --Firestorm   16:08, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Golden Wrench has wrong icon

The Golden Wrench icon is the same as the default wrench. I have no idea how to change it, I'm just pointing it out.

Tyc 00n 21:05, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

They are different. -- Smashman... _{(t • s)} 21:07, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

"Most unlockable weapons in the game"

er... how exactly is this calculated?

The Engineer has: Lugermorph, Golden Wrench, Frontier Justice, Wrangler, and Gunslinger. Of these, only four are common.

The Demoman has: Scottish Resistance, Chargin' Targe, Eyelander, Pain Train, and Scotman's Skullcutter.

Of all the above, neither the Wrangler or Chargin' Targe are strictly weapons... but even if we're counting them, only the Chargin' Targe directly does damage.

If you're counting the Combat Mini-Sentry separately... why? It's counted as a normal sentry gun by the game's internal stats and logging.

You forgot the Southern Hospitality~ — Wind 22:03, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

Sadly, I didn't remember that until afterwords, but you'd already replied before I got back here to remove that. --Powerlord 22:09, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

Curiouser and Curiouser

Fellow wiki-patrollers, lend me your ears. What do you know about an enigmatic weapon lurking in the .gcf files, known only as 'The JAG'? The only thing I can tell you is all the textures and models are accounted for, and that it looks like a 1950's gear-puller, as opposed to a wrench. -- MistahFixIt 16:55, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

We know this. -RJ 16:59, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Durp. TF2 Wiki's search engine must hate me, cuz I didn't get a single hit looking for it. Also, I doubt its in a Supply Crate, since a) it doesn't show up on the supply crate manifest, and b) it's not on the items_game.txt at all. -- MistahFixIt 17:03, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Wrong Dischord guitar sounds

Capitalization of "building"

Minor point. Sometimes, especially when linking to the page on buildings, the word is capitalized. Sometimes it is not. Seems to me it should not be capitalized. I was going to start changing them but I thought maybe I should say something about it first.

Wrenches and Bionic Fists

I have always found it strange how the type of sentry the Engineer uses depends on the weapon he uses. And also how the Engineer has a set of wrenches that effect the original sentry in so many ways, but only one bionic fist that just builds the mini-sentry, and nothing more. This may not be that big of a problem now, but what happens when we get new types of sentrys, dispensers, and teleporters? Will we need new wrenches or shotguns just so we can build them? In my opinion, the way we choose different types of buildings needs major reform.Jarhead 01:27, 20 January 2011 (UTC)Jarhead
