Stranges with existing use

What happens if the filter is used on a stat that is already has some tracking? Does it reset that stat to zero?Nintyuk 14:05, 28 December 2012 (PST)


-- Yes just tested this, resets to 0 and adds a suffix to the counter. My new wrench has : "(Cloaked Spies Killed (only Egypt): 0)". Kyhas 07:14, 6 January 2013 (PST)

Counting Kills

Are kills considered "the tracking of a statistic", or do strange filter just affect strange parts? --Spider Shark 16:29, 28 December 2012 (PST)


-- If I follow your question correctly, they track any one statistic you apply it to. So on my wrench I can have the filter effect 1 of these: "Sentry Kills, Wrench Kills, Sappers Removed or Cloaked Spies Killed." So they do effect the non part kills statistic on weapons.

Multiple Filters?

Can you use more than one filter on a weapon? And if so, will it add multiple prefixes to the weapon's name? Like a Strange Spooky Canadian Technical Shovel? Redjarman 20:23, 29 December 2012 (PST)


-- I tested with this in mind, unfortunately it seems that filters on parts may not give the title. Cloaked Spies on the wrench(BotKiller) did not give me the "Egyptian" title from the filter I used. However I applied the "Hydraulic" to the kills statistic on my escape plan and got the title. Kyhas 07:23, 6 January 2013 (PST)

Additional testing needed

If someone could provide any answers to the following questions that would help greatly to myself and other players interested in filters.

1.)Do filters work on the main statistic of BotKillers, therefore giving them a title?

2.)Are there any reports of filters awarding the title when not on the main statistic?

3.)Filters work on the Spirit of Giving strange misc item. No idea if this means it only tracks gifts given on that map?

Findings so far

You can attach like-parts again once they have been filtered. E.g by filtering one cloaked Spies Killed part to only Egypt, you can now attach a Second cloaked Spies Killed part, for further filtering if you desire.

Filters cannot be removed, in doing so you remove the whole part.

Filters work on the Spirit of Giving strange misc item. No idea if this means it only tracks gifts given on that map?

Filters on "kill assist" on quick-fix don't give the additional prefix

I just attached filter for Harvest map on one of my s. quick-fix(and selected on "kill assist"), but it didn't give the "Fresh" prefix

so I guess this means s. medigun, s. krits, won't work in the same way either? Or, since krits name change based on kill assist, it might work.

I think I'm going to contact valve about this issue and see if i can get any help for this.
