==Crafting Bug?==

{{Talk archive
I crafted a Sun-on-a-Stick today, using only tradable items, and it resulted in a non-tradable weapon. Does this happen to everyone?

:Yes, if you craft something with non-tradeable metal, you end up with an non-tradeable item.

==Bugs?==
 
Is it actually a bug that it shares its sound with the bat or just Valve being lazy? It would only be a bug if there was an unused soundfile made for it. [[User:Bujeebus|Mssive Mountain of Hat]] 01:41, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
 
==Crafting Recipe==
 
Does it take 3 reclaimed, 1 refined, or either? The recipe for the Pyro axe says 1 refined so I'm thinking it could actually be either. [[User:Bujeebus|Mssive Mountain of Hat]] 01:39, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
 
:I crafted it using 3 reclaimed. 1 refined doesn't work [[User:Balladofwindfishes|Balladofwindfishes]] 01:52, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
 
::Definitely takes 3 rec + Boston basher. I had to craft down my ref to make it, which is silly. This must be craft only since it costs so much to make. I doubt they will add it to regular drop table and it will help bring down ref inflation, at least until everyone crafts 1 of each for themselves. [[User:Turtlebolt|Turtlebolt]] 02:44, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
==Genuine quality==
 
You get genuine quality when you get Son-On-A-Stick as a promo, so genuine is the new vintage!! [[User:Turtlebolt|Turtlebolt]] 06:31, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 
*Except the new vintage is useless in trading since Genuine to taken away when given to someone else.  [[User:DennoCoil|DennoCoil]] 20:04, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 
:It should remain genuine quality after traded [[User:Turtlebolt|Turtlebolt]] 07:40, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
 
::Considering the front page says so. [[User:GeminiViRiS|<font color="green" size="2px">GeminiViRiS</font>]] [[Image:User GeminiViRiS Doubleface.jpg|20px]] [[User_talk:GeminiViRiS|Talk]] [[Special:Contributions/GeminiViRiS|Contribs]] 07:42, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
 
:It does stay genuine after trading, like vintage. [[User:Bujeebus|Mssive Mountain of Hat]] 01:36, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
==Quote==
 
Is the description really a quote from somewhere?
 
Can anyone provide a link? [[User:Squidfeeder|Squidfeeder]] 00:57, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
its from the article From Hell at www.teamfortress.com 20:20 9 February 2011
 
 
 
==Usage==
 
It does bonus damage to burning enemies but less to non burning. Its basically an Axetinguisher but the scout is forced to rely on a nearby pyro or follow a pyro around to make this weapon useful. [[User:Turtlebolt|Turtlebolt]] 06:04, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 
: You are worng, it does less damage to BURNING enemies.
 
::No, you are wrong, it does 35% more damage, and 45% LESS damage to NON-BURNING players. [[User:PredatorDuck|PredatorDuck]] 15:26, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
 
:::Oops, sorry, how confusing. [[User:Jagoba RL|Jag Gentleman]] 15:28, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
They improved this weapons effects to deal mini-crits to burning target, but deal 15% damage. Still feels like a downgrade over the regular bat despite the extra effort of go after burning targets or following a pyro. [[User:Turtlebolt|Turtlebolt]] 07:46, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Regarding the itembox ==
 
 
 
Should we change the item quality in the itembox on this weapon and the [[Sharpened Volcano Fragment]] to Genuine? It seems kind of obvious, seeing as how the weapons are currently only obtainable in Genuine quality. That is the case until the pre-order period ends, of course. [[User:404 User Not Found|404 User Not Found]] 16:27, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 
:So I've went ahead and changed the quality in the itemboxes of both RIFT weapons to "Genuine", seeing as that's the only quality they come in (at the moment). However, I've noticed the names on the itemboxes now say "Genuine The", at the beginning. That's not the case though. Take a look at [http://www.tf2items.com/id/404UserNotFound my backpack on TF2Items.com], page 18. I have both of the RIFT weapons, and the prefix is just "Genuine", not "Genuine The". Is there any way to correct this and remove the "The"? [[User:404 User Not Found|404 User Not Found]] 18:23, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 
:Yes, add an attribute prefix = no, or something like that, to the infobox. I can't check at the moment so check the template documentation if that's wrong.

::Ahh, alrighty. I shall do just that. I hit the "Edit" button on the Backpack item template and took a quick look at the coding of it....wow. I didn't want to edit it because I was afraid I'd break something. But thanks for the tip, Moussekateer! [[User:404 User Not Found|404 User Not Found]] 18:37, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 
:::Weird. I tried setting 'prefix' to "none", "no", and "false". Nothing worked. I guess the backpack item template just needs to be updated. [[User:404 User Not Found|404 User Not Found]] 18:41, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
== First person view picture ==
 
 
 
Uhh guys, have you noticed that in that picture showing the viewmodel, the SOAS is in the middle? It should be more to the right. [[User:Mentlegen|Mentlegen]] 23:26, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
 
:It is on the middle since it just shows the hand picture only, not the position. Shock394 23:44, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

To me the Item Box's name is colored black, against the background you cant read it, could someone fix that? [[User:Gamecrazy009|Gamecrazy009]] 03:04, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

== Incorrect name ==
 
 
 
The official name for this item, via tf_english and the API is "Sun-on-a-Stick" note the lower case "on" and "a". I feel this should be moved to correct this mistake. &ndash; [[User:Smashman|<font color=#507D2A>Smashman</font>]]<sub>&nbsp;([[User_talk:Smashman|talk]])</sub> 17:16, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
 
: Sun-on-a-Stick already exists as a redirect so it would just be a case of swapping the contents around.

== Droppable? ==
 
 
 
So, now that the item can be crafted, was it also added to the random drop system?  Frankly, I don't feel like spending 1/3 of a random hat on an item that only works in certain situations.
 
--[[User:Powerlord|Powerlord]] 03:41, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
 
 
 
Nope.  [[User:Thespy|Thespy]] 03:48, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
