I got Jarate last night!

Changed to sniper because I was just messing around and being useless, zoomed in, saw a guy and pressed the fire button, then my PC locked up for a few seconds. When it unfroze I was dead (pyro got me), but I ended up dominating the guy, which got me enough achievements for Milestone 2.

So right now I have:

- Cloak and Dagger

- 2 Ambassadors

- 3 Axtinguishers

- 2 Backburners

- KGB

- Sandvich

- Ubersaw

- Blutsauger

- 3 Jarates

- Flare gun

- Razorback

- 2 Huntsmen

- Natascha

- Kritskrieg

Missing: all of the Scout unlockables :hmmm:

I have every unlockable in varying amounts (1, 2, 3, etc). What I don't have are the hats, except for the Fancy Fedora. Anyone else have hats? I'd love to have the Sniper hat. I might even be willing to trade my Spy hat for one. Speaking of trading, Valve is taking awhile with that trading system.

You guys who have hats are seriously lucky. You have about 0.44% chance of getting a hat drop, in theory I could get 220 drops and get 1 hat (of course since it's all chance it could be much more or 0). I haven't got one yet anyway.

So i would advise against trading a hat for weapons since weapon drops are so much more common than hats.

These were collected over a day tracking about 2000 idlers drops, so it might turn out that hat drops are 0.5%, but it doesn't make much of a difference :p

I didn't do this by the way.

I guess these were collected off of the SpA servers? :) Looking at the percentages, they're pretty much equal, so at least Valve were speaking the truth when they said it was random :p I think I've had maybe 40 drops in total, I'll maybe luck out and get a hat soon!

@Minimoose: When I said "a few" I was thinking along the lines of "around 10" :p Pretty much, all the unlocks I don't have at that point (right now, I don't have: Ambassador, any Sniper, any Scout, KGB, Backburner, Axtinguisher).

For me, the Fro is useless as I never play Demoman :)

I've got over 300 hours poured into him.
*blink blink* 300.... 300?!?!? That's 10 TIMES more than I have played the engineer in TF2 and he's my favorite class!

This is madness.

Nope, someone made an idling application where you can have 10000 people on one server, he recorded all of the data off there over 1 day.

Here's what I can spare at the moment:

  • Ambassador
  • Huntsman
  • Jarate
  • Razorback
  • Force-A-Nature
  • Bonk! Atomic Punch
  • Killing Gloves of Boxing
  • Backburner
  • Axtinguisher

That's about 9 items. Is it a deal? :D

Anyway, those item drop percentages are quite daunting. I knew the hats were rare but not that rare. I guess I had a couple of rabbit's feet on me when I found the Fancy Fedora.

Aye, you have yourself a deal there :) When the trade system comes out, I'll hit you up with a trade :) If I get any of those unlocks between now and then, no worries (unless I get like, all but the Axtinguisher or something :p)

Cool. Valve is certainly taking their time with the trade system. I'm beginning to lose patience, haha.
