Hello everyone,

I have created a list of the unusual effects listed by popularity and value of effects that I have seen being traded in the past, these are just general guidelines and do not taking into consideration "themed" and "fitting" effects which may be worth more to a specific class or hat.

TOP - Most Valuable

It's a Secret to Everybody
Cloudy Moon
Burning Flames
Harvest Moon
Sunbeams
Scorching Flames
Stormy 13th hour
Purple Energy
Green Energy
Knife Storm
Flaming Lantern

Circling Heart
Haunted Ghosts
Misty Skull
Cauldron Bubbles
Vivid Plasma
Eerie Orbiting Fire
Searing Plasma
Stormy Storm
Blizzardy Storm


Orbiting Fire
Orbiting Planets
Circling Peace Sign
Smoking
Steaming
Circling TF Logo
Bubbling
Massed Flies
Purple Confetti
Green Confetti
Nuts n' Bolts

BOTTOM - Least Valuable


Please note this list is based party from my own opinion, experience and people I have spoken to about where they think the effects are placed. The list can be changed at any time if you feel an effect is placed wrongly please reply and give your opinion.

This is just a rough guide for newer traders so they don't totally get ripped off like trading a Burning Flames for a Confetti and to help gauge prices.

i think the new effect, eerie orbit fire should be just above blizzard. This is my opinion though.

[arand]

[trunk_slamchest]

unfortunately, weve been short on manne-power, and there are numerous updated we need to apply to the forums, but havent been able to get around to D:

Orbit fire is cancer of cancers, and p energy is only slighty above g energy, unldss we're talking about fros and tavish degroot experienceseseseseseses. Smoke and steam are top low tier, they get sold crazy cheap.

Nope. fetti is. It's amazing how many people still think flies<fetti, nothing personal, just saying.

A flies kabuto goes for quite a bit more than a fetti

Just a suggestion, but maybe put a listing of which classes are also more expensive, obviously themed hats will come up but just a general synopsis of what people should expect if they go 1:1 with the same effect but diferent classes.

[arand]

updated the list to a more recent pricelist

hmmm, a suggestion, can you also make a list of the least and the most valuable unusual hats of each class ? like for the heavy the least is football helmet and the most is team captain and such
also a list of the popular themed effects with classes , like nuts for engi and heart for medic ?

[arand]

I'll do it very soon in a different thread, ok

[The-Golden-Spy]
