Revision as of 02:29, 5 November 2013

Template:Dablink

Quality is a property of items. It is represented in-game by the item's prefix. Under rare circumstances, an item's Quality can be changed by Valve.

Quality is a purely cosmetic property, and has no effect on gameplay. Items can have both a Quality and a Rarity value.

CF6A32

Main Article: Strange

CF6A32 is a special prefix for items that track a count of a specific in-game event. Doing so will upgrade the prefix itself.

Example: A newly unboxed CF6A32 will become an CF6A32 once it has made 10 kills, which will become a CF6A32 once it has made 25 kills, and so on.

Tracked counters are viewable by other players. Other than this, Strange items are no different from regular items. Strange items are obtained from opening hero-specific Treasure Chests. More counters can be added to a Strange item by using a Strange Modifier.

Main Article: Unusual

8650AC is a special prefix for items that have a special particle effect. To date, only couriers can have unusual quality. Unusual couriers are found in Treasure Chests at an approximately 1-2% chance.

Main Article: Vintage

8650AC

Main Article: Tournament
