Pan

The Pan is one of the six Melee Weapons added in 0.5.0, a.k.a the "Air drop it like it's hot" update, and the rarest. It takes appearance as a classic Cast Iron Pan. The Pan has a high damage per swing, meaning that you can easily finish off someone with it if you've done at least 40 damage. Because of this, the Pan has the highest damage out of all melee weapons in the game and is widely considered the best.

Strategies

 * The Pan is great for finishing off players who are about half health, and you can quickly swing them and do up to 60 damage. (Ambushing them might be better than outright charging them)
 * The Pan is very hard to find, so don't expect to see one every game.
 * The Pan can ricochet bullets when it is unequipped and on your back, so try and face people pan-way forwards if you're reloading, or not in range.
 * This ricocheting feature can also be used in battle while your teammate uses a sniper(like the Mosin Nagant or SV-98) to get surprise attacks in through weird angles. For example, positioning yourself partially behind the enemy with the pan facing them, so when your teammate fires, it will rebound off you, and kill your opponent. This strategy is best used with a 4x or higher scope.

Trivia

 * The Pan is one of three melee weapons which have no alternate versions (Hook, pan, and Fire Axe), while the four knives (Bayonet, Huntsman, Karambit, Bowie) and the Wood Axe do. The fire axe is stated as a different weapon in the changelog and has different stats than the Wood Axe.
 * The Pan is a clear reference to Players Unknown Battleground's Pan, due to how they both are able to ricochet bullets off. However, this is highly unrealistic as even the weakest bullets such as .22 Long Rifle can penetrate through a cast iron pan. The pan in-game may be made of a stronger material, however.
 * One of Duck.io's videos stated that the AWM-S could shoot through the pan. However, this is false.
