Price/Power (2/5)
Price will be lowish due to Advent Calendar prize, but this isn't nearly as revolutionary as some items recently released... While the three icon block is nice, the heal and the fact it is once per battle is limiting. I think it'd be better if it wasn't "limit one healer" and it was "semi-fragile" with a small chance to block. Keep using it as long as you can then get a boost of healing. Bonus points if the healing increased for each turn you used it before it popped.

Countermeasures (1/5)
Three 100% blocks of common icons and a weak percentage heal; not bad but really underwhelming.

Alternatives Upgrades or Downgrades
The Feel Better Soup from last year would be much better despite the more limited icon range.

Other Points

Final Thoughts
My happiest memories on the site were not of the holidays- but of the hp increase we left behind.

This weapon was given out during the 2023 Advent Calendar.

Strengths:
This is a fairly interesting weapon in that it combines 20% healing with fully blocking 3 icons. As a freebie from Advent Calendar, this could be a potential beginner's upgrade from constant healers, depending on how its price settles and your pet’s total health. Fully blocking dark, fire, and physical for the turn is a neat bonus, making this like a budget Thyoras Tear if you know that your opponent will be attacking heavily with those icons.

Weaknesses:
I'm personally quite intrigued by the triple icon block, even if for only one turn per battle. However, the 20% healing is actually a bit of an awkward hindrance for this weapon, as it takes up a healing slot while being a tad weak. When your pet is trained up to the point that you'd want to consider percentage healers over constant healers, you may not be that far off from simply adding Parachuting First Aid Kit or Feel Better Soup to your set and skipping over this one, again depending on how prices settle.

Alternatives:
When it comes to beginner and intermediate healing, there are a lot of constant healers that may be more worthwhile if your pet has less than 100 HP, such as Lesser Healing Scroll and Greater Healing Scroll. But you'll need to do a little math to see whether these alternatives are more worth it, based on their current prices and your pet's total health.

Once your pet is trained up to 125+ HP, and depending on your budget, then you...
