It doesn't fit on knives even when it first came out.

It was probably to hard to fit on all the weapons they selected for us to have. So probably a good thing they decided to bring more weapons in instead of the effect

i hope they fix it. it's a really nice effect

I agree it's one of the better unusual weapon effects imo
From what I've heard, it's perma retired. It's speculated that something was wrong with it. Probably can't get it to work with melee weapons either.

Tinfoil hatty speculation: the team saw that Energy Orb was one of the "most unboxed" effect and they decided to remove it.
Non tinfoil: they just forgot lol.

That and there were multiple reports that it would actually crash basically everybody on the server

And yes, it is permanently removed

I've been wondering about this too. I hope if it was removed it will be fixed somehow and be readded. Isotope and energy orb are my favorite effects. D:

Do those who had EO unusual weapons still have them if they could potentially crash the game?

I'm wondering about this as well.

i assume the energy orb items would be replaced with a different (possibly new) effect

It wasn't an issue with crashing so much as it was buggy and had a tendency to disappear.

That's even worse than bragging rights before server destruction

Sucks it's the best unusual weapon effect it looks really good on a Minigun.
