  • Bit of a different video this time, looking at Spell Books because I find them interesting and found out a fair bit about them!
    Sorry if I sound a bit croaky in this vid, I was getting over a cold. Also this Halloween update broke OBS's ability to record at 60 FPS for some reason so this video was made and recorded at 30 instead.

    latin pronunciation pro tip: there are no soft Cs or soft Gs, and the V sound doesn't exist. If there is a V then depending on whether or not a vowel or consonant follows dictates whether or not you pronounce it as a W or a U respectively. i.e: Vticensis is pronounced as "Utikensis" while Veteris is pronounced as "Weteris".

    I am lucky enough to own Fireproof Secret Diary, its considered a collectors item nowdays. Funny fact - the effect you see on picture is same that you see when you cast the spell. But apart of the different book and its particle effects it behaves same as Spell magazine, you cannot add any pages to it or anything. Its just super rare, only 641 are known to exist.

    For those who are wondering, the Bombinomicon is an arcane tome used to conjure...cannonball-like bombs with a light-able fuse. The name is reference to the Necronomicon. It is a book that was conceptually made by H.P. Lovecraft that is mentioned in several of his stories. There is a misconception that the book has supernatural/arcane properties. The book is supposed to be "mundane" but the information contained in the book itself is supernatural and arcane revealing something eldritch. I guess you could argue that the Necronomicon is by extension supernatural/arcane. The one in Team Fortress 2 is one of the more comical interpretations/variations on the forbidden tome and a lot more sentient. The name of the item can very roughly mean "Name of Bomb(s)". The Lovecraftian book roughly means "Name of Death" or "Deadly Name", which I guess the true name of the book can cause death instead of explosions? Not sure.

    Sometimes tf2 items can be renamed or traded by accident, usually as an oversight or by doing something to bypass it's original design (like say adding a festivizer on an australium in the early days or gift-wrapping the black rose) however sometimes in impossibly rare odds; an item will be given to you bugged.
    Now these are impossbly rare but when it happens it's usually only ever 1 of them and often patched out before it gets bigger. The only cases I've seen about this was a "Self Made Crate" and the tradeable "Horseless headless horseman's headtaker".
    So the renamed spellbook could of been given renamable, it could of been altered during a buggy part of tf2 or just a fake someone uploaded to backpack(dot)tf. Like how I did a foundry map for an achievement and it somehow gave me that hat for getting 1000 youtube likes.... I have no idea how, it just did, even though I was after the foundry hat :/

    I'm gonna be honest, I don't care much for Scream Fortress. If you could earn non-Halloween hats from it, or if holiday items weren't limited to special servers (seriously, what gives? No other game limits cosmetics to certain times) then I'd try harder to get them.
    For clarity, I don't mind hats being limited-time in terms of when you can _get_ them, what bothers me is the limit to when you can _wear_ them in official servers. I mean its not even about "immersion" at this point, with all the crazy community-made cosmetics like making Heavy into fucking Jotaro Joestar.
