Ratings - Prickly Potion
Rating:
1
As of June 2024, this potion attacks with your own strength boost and not your opponent's strength boost, so it is far outclassed by other beginner weapons.

Power: 0/5
The time of 6 iconers is long gone and reflected icons currently use your own boost, so this isn't worth it.

Counters: 0/3
Reflected icons are blockable and reflectable in the new dome as well, so this will cut in half by Leaf Shield, Shiny Shoal Shell Shield, etc.

Uniqueness: 0/1
One of three icons dealing reflected icons - the other two being Voidberry Potion and Glowing Cauldron

Bonus: 1/1
This used to be quite awesome for pets with a low strength boost, but that time is over - too bad.

Price/Power (4/5)
6 Icons may not seem like much power, and normally you would be right however this item's bonus ability means that 6 icons can be very impressive indeed. This weapon causes 6 unblockable icons which use your opponents strength boost. Now if you are using a lab rat with only like 120 strength, versing something with 750, you will instantly see the difference in your damage. Couple together this item with a high HP stat common to lab rats and you have one killer item. It is good for both plot battling, and getting further in the DON battles.

Countermeasures (4/5)
Since it is a reflected icon attack, blocking is less of an issue. However, do NOT use these potions when the opponent is frozen. They can not reflect properly when they are.

Alternatives, Upgrades or Downgrades
Buy this or the Voidberry Potion. They are both identical in actual use so buy whichever is cheaper at the time. These two potions both represent a downgrade of the more expensive Glowing Cauldron.

Other Points (All the points reduced)
This item is apparently broken based on some initial tests. The reflecting of damage boost mechanic is broken and thus this item is worthless unless fixed.

Final Thoughts
An amazing item for people with a lower then normal strength boost. But always retain a backup main for when the opponent gets frozen
