The pan is a weapon appearing in Dead Rising 2: Case Zero and Dead Rising 2. It is commonly found in the kitchen areas of many restaurants in Still Creek and Fortune City. Its attack animation is nearly the same as the lead pipe. Although the pan is differently named from its Dead Risingcounterpart, it retains the ability to be heated on a stove and use the "face-searing" attack it gains after being heated.
The alternate attack becomes available after pressing at a stove with an 'Examine' prompt while a pan is equipped...
In Off the Record if a pan is left on a stove long enough and the player is wearing at least one peice of the bbq chef skills pack the pan will spawn an infinite amount of meat based food items until it is removed from the stove.
