Ratings - Fire Mote
Rating:

This weapon will only be rated for Regular 1P/2P use, since it doesn't have any niche or league use.

Price (0/3): Even for free, this is... No.

Power (0/5): Fire is good, but the amount there is so low you might as well get any other weapon. To make it worse they're not even full icons, and you also get a chance to do absolutely no damage. That's nothing, cero, nada. Absolutely beautiful. You know what's better? the chance of doing nothing is 3 out of 4, so most of the time you'll only have a 'weapon' that defends 2 water icons. This truly lives up to its name.

Uniqueness (0/2): Motes are common, weapons with at least this much power and icon types are common, worthless weapons like this are common.

Overall It's as useful as most motes are, so don't even bother. Because of that its final rating is 0/10. I can't give a rating of 0 however, so it gets a shameful 1 instead.

Price/Power (0/5)
Fire IS a useful icon type- but not when it breaks.

Countermeasures (0/5)
However with only 2.3 icons this is too easy to block. Even before noticing that the extra fire attack only has a 20% chance of being used this item is worth discarding.

Alternatives Upgrades or Downgrades
If you want to use fire in an effective and cheap way go for the Flask of Liquid Fire instead. It is much better and won't break.

Other Points (1 Bonus)
For how happy it looks, how can I not rate that face higher?

Final Thoughts
Would be a better petpet then it is a battledome item.

Price/power (0/5): You'd have to pay me to have me use this one. Like most other motes, this is so bad that it should cost a negative amount of NP.

Tactical (0/5): Bad for defense, seeing that it only defends against 2 water icons. Attack is negligible even when it does attack.

Bonus (1/1): The system is generous enough to ensure that even the worst motes get more than a 0.

Closing remarks: Even a Cheap Fire Ring is better than this, and that's saying something. Get yourself a Scroll of the Fool, Ridiculously Heavy Battle Hammer, or anything else that's worthwhile.
