| Attack O' Lantern
Cause the deaths of 5 players by exploding nearby pumpkin bombs Difficulty: Medium How to: Try to get several of the enemies grouped together, as the bomb will do severe damage to all of them. The bombs will usually kill any class except a Heavy or Soldier in one solid hit. Keep your sights on pumpkin bombs near the busier areas such as by spawns and near the middle cap. Bombs located strategically around corners are also good for surprising pusuers. Note that only bullet firing weapons will detonate pumpkin bombs. |
| Candy Coroner
Collect 20 Halloween Pumpkins from dead players to unlock a hat. Difficulty: Easy How to: This achievement is rather sporadic so patience is the main requirement. There is roughly a 1/8 chance of a Halloween pumpkin being dropped by a player upon death. Remember that you can pick up pumpkins regardless of who killed the unfortunate victim that dropped it. If you're fast enough, you can even pick up candy that you dropped when you died yourself. Playing as a Scout may let you snatch those elusive pumpkins before slower classes can reach them. The pumpkins will also give you a short burst of crits, which can be used to kill any nearby players and steal any other pumpkins they may drop. |
| Costume Contest
Kill a Spy disguised as your current class. Difficulty: Easy How to: This one is going to take some luck if you plan on getting it without help. Spycheck anyone of your class with extreme prejudice. Remember: It only has to be your class, not your name. Common Spy disguises to watch out for if you are playing the class are the Pyro, Sniper and Demoman. Note that unlike most of the other Scarechievements, this achievement can be completed on any map, not just the event version of Harvest. |
| Ghastly Gibus Grab
Dominate a player wearing the Ghastly Gibus to earn your own. Difficulty: Varies depending on opponent How to: Pretty much exactly what it sounds like. Pick out a player with the hat and alter your tactics specifically to kill him. Watch him carefully and be cautious about your health and surroundings. Note that unlike most of the other Scarechievements, this achievement can be completed on any map, not just the event version of Harvest. It is worth noting this can be got at any time also, not just during the Halloween event period. |
| Scared Stiff
Kill a player scared by the ghost haunting KOTH Harvest. Difficulty: Easy How to: The ghost wanders the map frequently along set routes, and though easy to avoid, players often stumble into him before fleeing in terror, especially when it moves through busy areas such as the center point. Wait for some helpless enemy to be scared, (the words "Yikes!" should appear over their head and they will exude ghost icons) then quickly finish them off in the few seconds you have before they recover. Attacks that finish opponents off quickly are your best bet, such as rockets, grenades and backstabs. Be careful not to be scared by the ghost yourself when attempting this. |
