Team Fortress 2 Item Drop Chances

team-fortress-2

Do the various items in Team Fortress 2 have an equal chance to drop? Are you just as likely to get an axtinguisher as a villain's veil?

Best Answer

From the tf2 wiki:

"While it has always been perceived that each weapon has an equal chance of being dropped to the player, it appears that certain weapons that form part of an item set will drop more often or less often than others. It is not known exactly which of these weapons are rarer or more common.1"

It mentions that in the old system the drop rate for hats was 1 in 28, but it doesn't mention any changes in the current system.
