Just move along. Nothing to see here.

This is a relic of a bygone era. With items such as Leaded Elemental Vial being mass released and easily accessible, there is no reason to have any percentage healer less than the guaranteed 100% ones. At one point, this was a step up from the low, set HP amount healers, and worked as a stepping stone to those higher percentage healers. That class of healer is now irrelevant and are nothing more than niche collectibles.

Price/Power (0/5)
Given it's set price you may be forgiven for thinking this is due a higher mark here. Unfortunately, given it will likely take upwards of four turns to get off the heal, there are better options out there.

Countermeasures (0/5)
A 100% heal is great, but you need reliability. When you need to heal you need to heal fast; having to lose one of your weapons for multiple turns is a hard ask when you are scrambling for that re-do.

This item is now a little more out of date.

At a Glance (1/3):
Fully heals you, but it has a 25% chance of success. Breaks for the battle afterwards.

In-Depth (1/4):
One thing about healers is that you need them to work exactly like you want them to, when you need them to. You can't do this with this scorchstone.

Picture this: if you are about to dive into the deep ocean, are you going to use a submarine that has a multitude of cracks and leaks? Would you expect it to keep itself strong when the pressure's on?

Price (0/2):
I cannot justify a 3m price tag with a weapon that *might* save you. Still, it is a lot cheaper than Leaded Elemental Vial. Worth it? Only if you're a crazy, risk-taking battler.

Bonus (0/1):

I would rather have Velms Healing Potion than this... but barely...

Final Score: 2/10
