    TNT released this new weapon as a staff challenge prize

    half the time it does 4 icons, half the time it freezes

    and it can be equipped with other freezers, this is pretty messed up, i think they are going for around 200k now

    im really not sure with this one, im just holding onto mine, but not buying anything more

    theyll probably change it so you cant equip with other freezers, but its still a 50% freezer, with a limited amount, just not sure how many were released


    EDIT: apparently they just changed it so you cant equip it with another freezer now

    Hrmm...it looks like now people have a certain advantage. Unfortunately I missed it. Was the description "Can only equip one freeze item per pet" always there ?

    Woohoo this is a good weapon for 1p (if you won it from the Staff thing)

    Otherwise, this could be a gamble in 2p (unless you sink/burrow/TTear/Downsize with it)

    I've tried testing the thing out and I have barely gotten the freeze even though it says 50%, another thing is if this item freezes, it breaks for the battle.

    Breaks for the battle = can be used next battle, right?

    so basically now that the item is fixed and you cant bug it anymore the item is basically only for low tier pets huh? Those who cant efford a lenny with ell or dont want to get shelling out for greater freeze scrolls?

    pretty much seems like it, looks like the price should stay pretty constant at whatever its at over the next few days

    gotcha, seems like a really nice item except for the lame 4 icons with 50% chance at that low of a level your probably better off using scarab rings haha, i guess its ok though since its gauranteed 2 icons through leaf shield, scarab ring, and sink.

    That seems like a good idea. Assuming the freeze rate is 50%, it's a lot higher than the current non-100% freeze alternatives and much cheaper than the 100% freezers.

    plus use this and diamond dust ( if you have it ) and you get 2 chances at freezing.

    In my opinion, too many of these for significant inflation

    I predict that around a plot time, these'll go for around 500k-600k.

    if you fgure that almost 60% of the neo population got these, it would tell us these wll not inflate much.

    I think the tnt are trying to make the bdome a better place for newbs

    They might inflate but it would tke forever! These items do break after they work right? cuz eventually there wont be many left if people keep breaking them =)
