What to do with Haunted Metal

**Zelmon** · 10-16-11, 11:57 PM

Now that Valve has released it's 9000'th item I realized I still had haunted metal from last Halloween Event. Still haven't crafted into anything yet. However, can't decide what to do. Make the Axe? Hat? Leave it pristine? Just curious what ya'll think, also do ya'll have items that you can't decide what to do with?

Same. Just holding onto mine right now as nothing looks enticing to craft it with...

I actually still have 2 sitting around, since my friend wasn't playing at the time I got his. I've just been saving them until I had 8 refined and nothing better to do with them.

I made a axe with it, I wouldn't recommend it now though, just because it feels like there are already 15 other eyelander reskins that you could get for cheaper.

If anyone wants their Haunted Scrap and didn't get it last year, the achievement is active again.

Easiest way to get it (and the pumpkin hat):

Make your own game from main menu on cp_mannor_event (or whatever its called)

Type

sv_cheats 1; buddha; noclip; tf_halloween_force_boss_spawn; sv_cheats 0

in console

No clip and melee the boss to death while invincible.

Was going to finally craft my Haunted Scrap but...

Voodoo Juju - Official TF2 Wiki | Official Team Fortress Wiki

Using the Fabricate Halloween Headgear recipe yielded a 50% chance of crafting either a Voodoo Juju or Spine-Chilling Skull. As of the Very Scary Halloween Special Update, this is no longer possible as the recipe only results in one of three 2011 Spine-Chilling Skulls.

No more Juju, only the 2011 Skull that is 3 different hats instead of 1 hat with 3 styles like the one you could buy from the mannco store. Also for some reason when they changed the skull for 2011 they changed the teeth from pointed to silly looking buck teeth.

C'mon Valve, seriously... Time for the Hunted Scrap to sit in my backpack for another year.

Oh wow, I had no idea that they did that. I already thought that the introduction of the new skull was kind of silly because it didn't look that much different than the old skull.

I never plan on using my haunted metal, since all the craft recipes are pretty expensive for not very good hats/weapon reskins, in my opinion.
