Pumpkin Bombs are an environmental hazard unique to the event version of Harvest. They occur at certain spots on the map and will explode when shot with a weapon, causing high damage over a moderate radius. After a short amount of time they will respawn, ready to be blown apart again. With the pumpkins being amazingly funny to explode and watch your enemys instantly gib it's highly recomended not to shoot them when team mates are near as the pumpkins will deal friendly fire damage and you wont be very popular by killing your team.

In order to obtain the Attack o' Lantern scarechievement, players must cause the deaths of 5 opponents by exploding nearby pumpkin bombs. This achievement is only available during the annual Hallowe'en Special.

Pumpkin Jump

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 the Rocket Jump. While this carries the player an impressive distance, it is a highly damaging technique and is not recommended for weaker classes.
