Calabazas explosivas

Las Calabazas Explosivas (en ingles, Pumpkin Bombs) son unos peligros ambientales únicos del evento Halloween 2009 que se producen en las versiones temáticas de los mapas Harvest y Mann Manor. Se generan en determinadas posiciones de cada mapa y explotarán cuando reciban daño, causando graves destrozos en un radio de acción moderado. Después de un corto periodo de tiempo volverán a resurgir, listas para causar destrozos otra vez.

A player can perform a 'pumpkin jump' by standing on or near a pumpkin bomb, and either jumping or attacking it point blank. This will launch the player up in the air in a similar fashion to a rocket jump. While this carries the player an impressive distance, it is a highly damaging technique and often instantly kills weaker classes.

Using this technique with certain classes such as the Scout has been deemed useless by some members of the community due to the amount of health that class has when not buffed by a Medic, as if you are not killed by the blast itself, you will most likely die by the fall damage.

• The Soldiers Gunboats do affect pumpkin jumps.
• The Soldiers Rocket Jumper currently prevents taking damage from any self-triggered pumpkin bombs.
• The Demomans Sticky Jumper currently prevents taking damage from any self-triggered pumpkin bombs.
• When the Huntsman, Jarate, or Mad Milk triggers an explosion of a pumpkin bomb it is possible to damage teammates.

The Pumpkin bomb kill icon

Any bullet, melee attack, or projectile may be used to explode a pumpkin (including Baseballs, thrown Jarate or Mad Milk), destroying the projectile used to detonate the pumpkin bomb. Fire, however, will not trigger an explosion.

• See the projectile article for a full list.

Errores

• Having the Rocket Jumper or Sticky Jumper equipped will nullify the damage you would normally take if you shot the pumpkin, even if it hits someone else. You take damage normally if an enemy caused the explosion.
• Standing in a Pumpkin Bomb's location before it spawns will freeze the player in place, being able to escape only by detonating the pumpkin or dying.
• It is possible to damage your own teammates with a pumpkin bomb if you trigger it with a Huntsman arrow, Jarate or Mad Milk.
