Talk:Jag

Umm, where has this item been found? Is it even in the game? It's certainly not in the Mann Co. catalog. Any clarification would help, I'm confused about this item! Evang7 06:52, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

I'm not fully sure this is a functioning weapon. The model exists, but I don't think it exists in-game.  – Smashman _(talk) 06:58, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Could it be the rare item in the supply crates? Or do you thin that's the Frying Pan? -Shine[] 07:01, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

I was under the impression that that was just a normal item with an attached particle effect. Does the Jag exist in items_game?  – Smashman _(talk) 07:05, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

It doesn't exist here. So, I'm going with scrapped item.  – Smashman _(talk) 07:09, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

It doesn't appear like playable weapon, but you can see the model and texture in TF2 files or in Gmod.  – Jagoba RL _(talk) 17:12, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

Alright. BTW, does your Knife still sparkle? My RL doesn't. -Shine[] 07:12, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

No. They broke the Community sparkle effect. :(  – Smashman _(talk) 07:17, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

Maybe we should add it to the unused content page, as nothing links to this page currently. While I'd hesitate to immediately call it un-implemented, as the sapper isn't on the item list either, there's no reason to think it would be a building. :P MK 08:07, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Jag was pictured in the update news. Mechlord 00:33, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Design

Is it meant to be a Caliper? or a clamp of some sort? I mean it's not exactly what I would call a "wrench"... Webrunner 13:19, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

its pretty similar to oil filter wrenches like the one on the left of these [1] --Markd 13:25, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

Not really, the top yes but the bottom no it looks like a custom tool I for one have spent a good 19 hours trying to figure it out--Trilby 12:38, 16 October 2010

When I made it, I based it off some strange wrench I saw at a shop, there's a single picture of it on google if you search monkey wrench. The link leads to a 404 but the thumbnail shows it well enough. --Jman 17:22, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Here's the picture in case anyone wanted to see it: [2] --EvilDeadFan 19:33, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

It looks a lot like the symbol for pi (π), to me. Given the Engineer's level of intelligence, this makes a great deal of sense.Emperorbob20:55, 13 November 2010

No, it barely resembles it, but it was obviously not intended during the creation of the weapon. If you can cite some sources, or ask the creator, then it might be trivia worthy, but hardly as this stands. Not trivia. And sign your edits. Serg 01:35, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

I always felt it looked like a wrench Leonardo da Vinci would have used. ;D Sage J. Fox 00:25, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

Original Author and Future Inclusion Confirmation

I've received a PM at FPSBanana from the original author of the model, Jman. He confirmed that he submitted the model via the Contribute! site a while ago and sent me a picture of an email conversation he had with Robin about it. I've included this information on the page and am awaiting his response to asking for his Steam Community ID. Reorganize the information if need be; I don't make edits of this scale very often.  – Shugo 16:28, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks Shugo! This is just more confirmation of the perf update too! -- Pilk _(talk) 16:31, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

That's pretty nice from Robin. Thanks for the email, no more speculation about this little thing now. -- OluapPlayer _(t) 17:43, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

And now I want it even more. -- En Ex _(talk) 18:04, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Little Competition

What about we try to give Jag Stats?

Maybe some of ours will be used and Jag finaly go in-game :3 Something like this:

Jag Level 10 Jag +20% Hit speed 3 hits needed to destroy sapper

--Zomgcorp 16:33, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

This is not the place for this. Try the Steam forums. -- OluapPlayer _(t) 16:43, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

<See Oluap's response>, and I don't think hit speed would be a huge difference-- Trilby 19:18, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Well i may be a little late to the party with these posts, but i fully programed the weapon with my own stats.To the SPUF. -= M-NINJA =- 01:26, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Possible stats

I was talking to a guy that (claimed anyway) to have made the backpack icon for this wrench. When I asked about the stats he said they were undecided but it was supposed to be an offensive wrench. The pointed tip on the top could suggest it is used for impaling, maybe with longer swing time? Tryer 19:51, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

Well Valve decide the stats, not the modellers or backpack icon makers. Moussekateer 19:55, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

What if you use it to upgrade buildings to level four but you can't build buildings when its equipped. Vetterlinj 05:30, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Bug

I've tested this with another person on a server and submitted it to the wiki under the bugs section but ti was removed, so I would be appreciative if anyone else could test for me as well. It seems that when you use the Jag to build a building, it makes no difference to building speed. We counted down and dropped sentries at identical times and raced each other. The first time, we pounded the sentries with wrenches to make them build faster, me with the jag, he with a regular wrench. Both sentries erected and were online at the same time. During the second test, we just let the sentry build up on its own, and the result was the same. Both sentries erected in the same amount of time.

If your testing confirms this, please add the bug section back. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Palehorse864 (talk) • (contribs)

The speedup effect is there, but it's barely noticeable. Tried it with a dispenser, took 13 hits to build with the wrench and 11 with the jag. --Sky 18:33, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

How does it work?

So, does it only speed up the building, or does it affect upgrading or repairing? Aggregation 19:50, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

It's meant to speed up the build and redeployed of a building, but it seems broken or needs a buff. because it seems to be the same speed as the wrench in my testing. Rocketlawnchair 02:28, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

Were you actually hitting the building, Lawn? It doesn't speed up the building if you aren't striking it. Zoolooman 02:30, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

yeah it hit it.

I cannot edit this page.

Why can't we edit this page? I was going to add that it cannot be crafted. Serrix 17:55, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

The page was protected back in October to prevent speculation being written - the jag had no stats, it was unintentionally slipped into the game. I've unprotected the page now, edit all you like :D. -RJs 18:09, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. Serrix 02:53, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Crafting it?

how to craft it?--The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mardamien24 (talk) • (contribs)

If we knew it'd be on the article page. Also please remember to sign your comments with ~~~~. —Moussekateer·talk 05:30, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Sappers

Anyone know if the -damage means it takes longer to remove sappers? Grug 02:30, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

I can confirm that sappers take two swings to remove with the Jag, as normal. Graven Image 14:21, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
