Characteristics
Overview
A pumpkin basket to help you collect candy much faster during Trick or Treat events with left click. Use right click to throw candy
Carry it when the Halloween event starts a trick-or-treat round. Its text says left click collects candy much faster, and right click throws candy, which is mostly good for teasing a teammate or tossing a few to a newcomer.
You cannot craft or research it, whatever recipe you see listed, so every basket comes from loot or a trade. If one turns up before Halloween, keep it in a box rather than feeding it to the recycler on a slow evening.
The Halloween candy you gather turns into a small loot bag ten at a time, and that is the whole reason to want speed. Once the event ends, the basket does nothing. Recycle it then for some metal fragments and a bit of scrap.
Recycling
At power grid stage 2 a green recycler works at 60% instead of 50%. Yields depend on the recycler.
