I always thought it was kind of weird that the Bonk! Atomic Punch makes you invulnerable to damage because he's presumably going so fast, but he actually runs at the same speed. Why don't they have a drink that actually lets you run faster! :mad:

what are you talking about? he gets 3 new weapons

The Rainblower, The Lollichop and the Scorch Shot....

The Scorch Shot was what I was referring to(which apparently sucks pretty hard, lol). Everything else is a reskin. So no, I don't count the others as new weapons.

+10% damage buff to Flamethrower is nice, though, I guess.

Valve aren't going to go out and buy a buttload of new hardware for a 24 hour period. There's a reason the event's for a week.

THOSE POOR, POOR SOLDIERS.

Goodness.

QuickFix still sucks. I'll probably be practicing more with the Crossbow.
Click to expand...
being a Medic main, and I do agree with you on this, but he Quick-Fix still has it uses...

And I use this to keep my team alive while there two other medic on the field, but depend on the map and the situation. Other wise, I'll stick with my medi-gun.
nothing wrong with the Crusader's Crossbow.

I'm talking about the QuickFix from a competitive aspect. No buffs is brutal.

Of course it'll have uses on pubs. You can just fly around the map with a Demoman / Soldier while you airshot with the Crossbow.

Never anything wrong with the Crossbow, but I'd rather have reliable immediate damage output via standard needles. With the reload speed buff however it's definitely more usable.

I may never update in time. I'm at 57% and 14 KB/s. I'm doomed.

default flamethrower got buffs while the other flamethrowers got nerfs. yesssssssssssssssssssss.

No, they just didn't get buffed. Losing +10% damage when you gain 10% base damage = 0 change.

So I've got 3 strange Rainblowers. I was talking to a guy in a trade server and he said they will skyrocket as soon as crate 46 as well as the scorched keys go out of stock. He said to look at stuff from series 40 like the Machina, Fish, and Gunslinger and they were all like ~20 keys.

Is what he saying right? If so, keeping them all for now.

I got a cute parrot too.

In the Scorched Crate how common is a Rainblower? I'm getting a couple of keys tonight so I wanted to know exactly how uncommon it is if it's anything unlike the other strange weapons

It's one of two strange weapons in the crate, with 11 other hats/miscs so the rainblower is 1 of 13 potential items. But, strange weapons are generally much more likely to drop than a hat/misc, so the strange rainblower is probably somewhere between 10-20% likely to uncrate, as is the strange lollichop, with the remaining 11 hats/miscs spread evenly with the remaining 60-80%

And I'm guessing you can still get an unusual

I think the big difference is that #40 is kind of rare and right now everyone is drowning in scorched crates (I got 4, anyone want to buy? :p)

edit: on a fun sidenote $10 would net you about 25.55ref if you were to buy scorched keys
