| Pickup Type: | Crit Boost | |
Halloween Pumpkins are a pick up item unique to the event version of Harvest and Mann Manor. They drop irregularly from killed players and grant around 3-4 seconds of Crit boost when picked up. Players who collect 20 of them them during the annual Haunted Halloween Special will complete the Candy Coroner achievement, unlocking the Mildly Disturbing Halloween Mask. The pumpkins only drop when the Haunted Halloween Special is in season.
Strategy
- Use faster classes such as the Scout to swipe them before others do, as all players can pick up any dropped pumpkins, regardless of who killed the player that dropped it.
- Close range classes such as the Pyro and the Spy are able to pick up their owed pumpkins shortly after killing their targets as they are closer to their targets than for example, the Sniper.
- Try to melee enemies; You can get the pumpkin immediately when it drops.
- If you manage to get one as a Demoman, try to set up a Critical Stickybomb wall to defend a large area with few bombs.
- If picked up as a Heavy use your Shotgun instead of your Minigun to get the most out of your Crit boost.
