[0.88] Dual Blade

I have 4 questions , if someone who knows what they're talking about (e.g fiel) or someone reliable could answer these i'd be unable to express my gratitude

first off since its the most important to me, whats the deal with the lvl 13 blue maple? ( rarest item in the game atm )
2nd of all where do shoulder pads come from? gach only?
third the masks are theif only but is it acc tradeable? as in can i pass it to my cb.
also how is it you extracted the patch when its not even live yet? does that old FTP thing ( don't even have the link anymore ) still work or somthing?

There's a blue maple bandana exchange ticket that you can possibly get from the CS that gives you a blue maple bandana.
Dunno O_o
No
The patch has been up for like 3 hours or so already.
