Price/Power (3/5)
11-16 icons isn't terrible. It just feels a little un-needed when you can get solid items which do almost as much all the time.

Countermeasures (1/5)
It runs with its worse icon types as its core icon types. That brings it down in my eyes.

Alternatives, Upgrades or Downgrades
I'd prefer a Flask of Liquid fire if I was aiming for these icon types

Other Points

Final Thoughts
It is kind of crazy that I can rate a 10 icon weapon this low- but with all the choice and better options out there right now I just feel like there are better things for you even released in that same plot.

Rating History ▼
When this was initially rated, it was given a 9 with the thought it would go to a 10 if not downgraded, and rated lower if it was. In spite of the downgrade, averaging a bit over 13 icons per use for almost free is going to be extremely useful to most budget battledomers, and the nature of this plot should ensure all participants get 1 if they want it, but supply will be inherently capped. Still a pretty solid option IMO even if it's a bit underwhelming.
