What Is a Strangifier in Typical Colors 2?
A strangifier is a special consumable item in Typical Colors 2, the class-based team shooter on Roblox from Dorcus Digital. When applied to a compatible weapon, it converts that weapon into a Strange version. Strange weapons keep the exact same stats, damage, and handling as the original — the only difference is that they now record your performance, most notably your total kills.
Think of it as a cosmetic-progress upgrade rather than a power upgrade. A Strange Scattergun kills exactly as fast as a regular Scattergun, but every elimination you land is added to a permanent counter displayed on the weapon's name plate. For players who main a specific class or weapon, this turns a favorite loadout piece into a long-term trophy.
| Aspect | Regular Weapon | Strange Weapon |
|---|---|---|
| Damage and stats | Standard values | Identical to standard |
| Kill counter | None | Tracks total kills |
| Name display | Weapon name only | Prefixed with Strange tier |
| Trading value | Base value | Higher, grows with kills |
| How to obtain | Unlocks and drops | Apply a strangifier |
A strangifier never changes gameplay balance. Use it on weapons you love, not on weapons you think will become stronger — Strange quality is purely about tracking and prestige.
How to Obtain a Strangifier
Strangifiers in Typical Colors 2 come through the game's item economy rather than normal weapon unlocks. Availability shifts between updates, so always verify current sources in-game before planning a purchase.
In-Game Store
- Purchased with Funds or premium currency
- Stock rotates between updates
- Check the item shop each season
Crates and Keys
- Found as possible crate rewards
- Requires Keys to open crates
- Drop rates are randomized
Events and Giveaways
- Occasionally tied to limited-time events
- Community codes have historically granted Keys and Funds
- Follow official announcements for drops
The game's milestone and community codes — such as past rewards like the one-billion-visits Funds code or free Keys giveaways — can help you build the currency needed for strangifier-related purchases. Redeem active codes through the in-game code redemption interface, and note that expired codes cannot be reused.
| Source | Currency or Requirement | Availability |
|---|---|---|
| Item store | Funds or premium currency | Rotating stock |
| Crates | Keys per opening | Randomized chance |
| Event rewards | Event participation | Limited-time windows |
| Community codes | Free entry in code menu | Short redemption periods |
Store stock and drop tables change with patches. Confirm the strangifier you want is currently obtainable in-game before spending Funds or Keys, and never trust third-party sites claiming to sell or generate strangifiers.
Applying a Strangifier: Step-by-Step
Applying a strangifier is a one-way operation, so follow the process carefully. Once the item is used, it is consumed and cannot be recovered.
Confirm the target weapon
Read the strangifier's description. Each one names the exact weapon it can upgrade, such as a specific primary or melee weapon. Double-check that you own that weapon.
Open your inventory
Locate both the strangifier and the target weapon in your inventory. Make sure the weapon is not currently equipped in a loadout you may want unchanged.
Use the strangifier on the weapon
Select the strangifier and apply it to the matching weapon. The game converts the weapon into its Strange version immediately.
Verify the Strange quality
Check the weapon's name plate. It should now display the Strange prefix with a kill counter starting at zero.
Equip and start earning kills
Add the Strange weapon to your regular loadout. Every verified kill in matches adds to the counter going forward.
A strangifier is consumed on use. If you later prefer the original version for trading or collection purposes, you would need to acquire the weapon again — so apply strangifiers only to weapons you genuinely main.
Which Weapons Deserve a Strangifier?
Since strangifiers are valuable and consumable, target selection matters. The best candidates are weapons you equip in nearly every match with the class you play most.
| Class | Strong Strangifier Candidate | Why It Works |
|---|---|---|
| Flanker | Scattergun | Main kill tool in almost every fight |
| Trooper | Rocket Launcher | Primary damage source, consistent kills |
| Brute | Minigun | Sustained damage generates steady counters |
| Marksman | Sniper Rifle | High-value picks every round |
| Annihilator | Stickybomb Launcher | Area denial converts into frequent kills |
| Doctor | Syringe Gun | Lower kill rate, weaker return on investment |
Classes built around damage output — Trooper, Flanker, Brute, Marksman, and Annihilator — rack up kill counters quickly because their primaries are their kill tools. Support-focused picks like the Doctor's Syringe Gun tend to accumulate kills slowly, making them lower-priority targets unless you are a dedicated Doctor main who wants the flex.
Play a class for several sessions before committing a strangifier. If you find yourself switching primaries often, hold the item until your loadout settles — the counter only grows on the weapon you actually equip.
Value, Trading, and Common Mistakes
Strange weapons carry weight in the Typical Colors 2 community. A Strange weapon with a high kill count signals experience with that class, and strangified weapons often hold more trade interest than their standard counterparts.
Before You Apply a Strangifier:
- Confirm the strangifier matches the weapon you own
- Verify the weapon is your true main, not a phase
- Check current store and crate availability in-game
- Apply it outside of an active match to avoid misclicks
- Equip the Strange weapon in your default loadout
Common mistakes worth avoiding:
- Applying to situational weapons. A melee you rarely swing gains almost no kills.
- Hoarding without a plan. Rotating stock means waiting can work, but only if the item returns.
- Expecting stat boosts. Strange quality changes nothing about performance.
- Using third-party generators. There is no legitimate external strangifier generator; obtain items only through the game itself.
| Mistake | Consequence | Better Approach |
|---|---|---|
| Wrong weapon target | Wasted strangifier | Read the item description twice |
| Low-use weapon | Counter stays near zero | Choose your most-equipped primary |
| Expecting buffs | Disappointment | Treat it as prestige tracking |
| Third-party offers | Scam or account risk | Use only official in-game channels |
A Strange weapon you equip every session becomes a running record of your time in the game. Players who strangify their true main often watch the counter climb into the thousands across seasons.
FAQ
Q: What does a Typical Colors 2 strangifier do?
It converts one specific weapon into a Strange version that tracks your kills. The weapon's stats, damage, and handling remain exactly the same — the strangifier adds stat tracking and the Strange quality prefix only.
Q: Does a strangifier make my weapon stronger?
No. Strange quality is cosmetic and statistical tracking only. A Strange weapon performs identically to its regular counterpart; the difference is the permanent kill counter and its increased collectible value.
Q: Can I apply one strangifier to multiple weapons?
No. A strangifier is weapon-specific and is consumed on use. It names the exact weapon it upgrades, and once applied it cannot be recovered or transferred to another weapon.
Q: How do I get a strangifier in Typical Colors 2?
Strangifiers are obtained through the game's item economy, such as the in-game store, crate openings with Keys, and limited-time event rewards. Availability rotates with updates, so check current in-game sources and official announcements before planning a purchase.
