Stats

Actually, if you go to tf2items Item list (http://www.tf2items.com/allitems.php), they are NOT the same as the Axtinguisher. You may want to change that.Borg184 00:02, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Droppable?

This seems like a rather must-have item for it to be only available by pre-ordering a $50 game which costs $15/mo. Are we sure that it won't drop or be craftable? I don't think any other promotional items have been obtainable outside of the promotion, right? Pez 00:15, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

We don't know yet. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 00:16, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
I'd think it'd almost have to be seeing as it has unique stats. But who knows. Sage J. Fox 00:19, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
We have our answer. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 00:20, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
Nice, thanks. Pez 03:39, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
The promo item loses its genuine quality when you trade it so it will be same value as one that you can craft later on, unfortunatly. Turtlebolt 06:12, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
Not true, read the sitenotice at the top of the site. User Moussekateer signature sprite.pngMoussekateer·talk 06:13, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for pointing that out i read on a different page that you would lose the genuine quality which seemed silly in the first place. Turtlebolt 06:23, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Eternal flames?

I've tested this weapon out, and when I hit anyone, the afterburn seems to last forever. I even tested this out on a Heavy, and it went for over 40 seconds before he died from it. Is there an actual end to this afterburn (aside from the other options of getting rid of it, such as Medkits, Medics, etc), or is it just really long? AbeX300 00:41, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

  • Seems to be a bug at the moment. Jenkson 02:16, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
  • Maybe it was meant to be that way? You do get them by buying a $50 game... Vetterlinj 03:40, 4 February 2011 (UTC)Vetterlinj
  • But then you are able to craft it sometime during the pre-order period. AbeX300 03:51, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
  • But maybe its only with Genuine? why not make them Vintage? Why create a whole new title?Vetterlinj 04:12, 4 February 2011 (UTC)Vetterlinj
Well before Genuine was added, there were 3 unused qualities, Genuine being the former rarity2. Obviously Valve decided to finally put one of the 3 into use. I'm starting to wonder if all promotional items will gain Genuine quality. 404 User Not Found 16:29, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Are we for sure its a "Bug"?

After all, the description does say "On Hit: target is engulfed in flames" instead of "On Hit: target is ignited".

I believe this was an intentional feature of the axe, given that it is made from lava and does not spew/cause fire like the Flamethrower(s)/Flare Gun so much as just giving the target a very, very bad burn. --KajiVena of TheVille 20:33, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

It's most likely a bug. -- En Ex (talk) 20:37, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
