***Not to be confused with Potato (Throwable), a throwable that shares that same name.***
The **Potato**, referred to as the "**Super Potato**" in the Changelog's update note, is a Crate exclusive to the Potato Map. They are extremely common and could be found almost anywhere on the land-based portions of the map. There are three types of Potatoes: a dark-colored Potato, a light-colored one, and one somewhere in between.

## Update log

"Due to budget cuts, PARMA's food science, terraformation, and molecular synthesis divisions were recently merged together. And now the unthinkable has happened: a gross infestation of oversized PARMA "super" potatoes all across the Island. Also, a lot of regular potatoes.

We've deployed our best people to find out what these super potatoes do. So ... good luck, survivrs!"

## Loot

* A random Melee Weapon (including Fists) (If the Potato is destroyed by a Melee Weapon)
* A random Gun (not Melee Weapons) (except Potato Cannon and Spud Gun) (If the Potato was destroyed by a gun)
* A random Throwable (except Snowball) (If the Potato was destroyed by a throwable)
* Any random loot from any map-exclusives can be dropped (AN-94, Stone Hammer, Strobe, .45 ACP guns, etc.)
* An item from Tier Potato Perks

*The loot of the Potato will replace the weapon you are holding.* *Your newly received Item will show as an emote.*

## Trivia

* The Potato crates and throwable serve as an April Fools Day Trick.
* The Potato can also give you Fists if you are unlucky. However, the first one can also be a Naginata if you are lucky enough.
	+ However, fists, Knives and Knuckles are identical, so it isn't that big of a deal.
* The Potato is currently the only crate to have a chance to drop Fists and it has the widest range of weapons that can drop.
* Dropping your melee weapon before breaking this is a good idea, as you might get a good weapon, for example a Katana, replaced by a Karambit, or even Fists.
* Due to there being a simple way to get rare weapons, Bunkers like the Chrysanthemum Bunker often remain untouched; the Potato can potentially give the whole team Katanas and Naginatas.
* Potatoes regrow 60 seconds after they are destroyed.
* After potatoes have regrown, the residue image still remains underneath.
* There is a glitch where you can get two separated Pistols instead of one dual pistol, it happens when you hit a potato, get a single pistol, hit another potato with your secondary weapon, and get the same pistol you got before as a single too. For example, you have an AK-47 and M416. You hit a potato using your AK-47, get a single OT-38, hit another potato using your M416, and get another single OT-38.
* Punching a potato 4 times deals 96 of the required 100 damage necessary to destroy it. You can use this to your advantage to weaken a potato before finishing it with a weak weapon you want to reroll like M1911, OT-38, or Potato throwables. However, since you don't retain magazine ammo from a rerolled weapon, it's generally faster to just shoot a potato.
