Overview:
Pew pew pew! I loved playing around with water guns as a kid, so this weapon has my respect for that alone. This was also a pretty solid weapon when it released, so how does it hold up today?

Accessibility: 2/4
The price has hiked up a bit, and the meta has pushed the standard back more and more. It's not bank breaking by any means, but you might still wanna think twice.

Viability: 2/5
13 icons can be reached by a ton of cheaper weapons, but this has the saving grace of blocking a bit of fire as well. It faces stiff competition with The Omelette Sceptre, however, which you can get for free and swaps the fire defense for a debatably better multiheal.

Alternatives:
Omelette yummy

Bonus points:
None provided.

Final notes:
I miss water gun battles...

Price at Time of Rating: 345k

This weapon was a prize from Daily Dare in 2017.

Strengths:
A total of 18 effective icons (13 attack + 5 defense) is pretty decent for an intermediate weapon, especially if you know that you're going up against an opponent with heavy fire attacks.

Weaknesses:
Since it's dual duty, it's not quite as useful in today's BD compared to weapons that are attack-only with a few more icons. The 5 defense icons only help if your opponent specifically attacks with that, otherwise this is only as powerful as beginner-tier weapons like Poisonous Mushroom Tea.

Alternatives:
For similar dual-duty weapons, there's Cobrall Utility Blade and Dacardian Swords of Valor. The gold standard for dual-duties under 1m though is still Roxtons Trusty Bowie Knife for its percentage defense.

Price/Power (5/5)
13 base icons AND blocks 5 of the hardest to block icon? Yeah, I think the rating here is evident.

Countermeasures (4/5)
Water is a very common icon type, it has basically been the staple of value for money items ever since the Kelpbeards Trident started the trend and items like the Dr. Sloths Personal Bath Buddy continued it.

Alternatives Upgrades or Downgrades
The main upgrades here are hidden tower, you could go for a Sword of Tawre to retain water icons if you want, but really at that point losing the water icon crutch would be wise. Try getting a Sword of Reif or Sword of Ari instead. If you want to deal with fire, a Clawed Shield or Frozen Cyodrake Shield are the best options.

Other Points

Final Thoughts
Still not a fan of dual duties as a rule, but this one is certainly OP.
