Which weapon do you guys think is more fun to use? The Snowball slingshot or the Ice conker? (Prepares to kill anyone who says "Ice Club.")

Umm, neither. Battledome is about fighting in winning and enjoying winning along with learning from your loses. But the utmost inportance to anyone is winning. So with that said I would not use either and but I would use Ice Club.

Shaken-up Can of Neocola. Oh, wait, you didn't list that.


I never actually used the Ice Conker, and the only reason I remember it at all is because Khaled uses it as his avatar. That aside, it's just a random amount of icons (and a few types, which gives it some points). Yoyo of Death probably wins over it for the extremity of random icons, and I'm sure there are one or two other weapons that are more impressively "fun."

I pick the Snowball Slingshot because it was taken seriously as a weapon, and it simply does two different things with a slight amount of randomness. Your Opponent has four icon types to worry about instead of three, and Air (as far as I can recall) has always been hard to block, leaving the Physical as the only reliable aspect that can be blocked.

That's your view and I respect that. But where I find entertainment is the suspense of the battle. You never know what will happen on the next turn and I like to maximize that thrill. Saddly, the most unpredictable thing today's battler can expirience is someone NOT using a club-golden compass combo...

You know, I should've listed the can! It only has 2 outcomes, but they are extreme enough to be entertaining.

It was really fun during the six-iconer era when all three of those items were used (like I said, I never encountered the Ice Conker, but I remember having friends that ran the Can and Slingshot). And even though they averaged less than six (well, apparently Ice Conker didn't), they were still solid Two Player weapons.

I have a (very inexpensive) fun set on a Pet on a spare account including the Can, Slingshot, and a few other items I either liked the appearance or the name of. Some of the HT weapons would be really good in a fun set, too, if someone had the cash to kill on them.

I am depressed that I'll probably never be able to get Aisha Myriad. That is the ONE item I would take if I could have any one Item in neopets. That has to be the MOST amusing weapon ever made. Hubrids Odial Sphere is a close second place, but giving up half of my HP really shortens how much fun I'll be having. Unless I keep pumping out Jade Scorchstones and Magical Marbles of Mystery that is. And the 6 icon era must've been a blast near the end. Too bad I became a reborn neopian during the 9 icon era, or not because my set is totally unique now.

Magical Wheel Potion could have been fun during the 6-icon era, but it's not as good now. Still, unpredictable items are neat -- I agree that Aisha Myriad would be a lot of fun to use, and Smugglers Treasure Chest, too. Pocket Lab Ray could be amusing, as well.

I'm not a fan of random weapons, but I do see the point of your post, heh. I would say the Ice Conker. It has a larger variable. Nice for a "AARGGHH! EEK! NOO! YESSS!! DANNGG!!! OHEMGEE!!!" type battle.

I'm very fond of the thought of a pocket lab ray in my stolen item slot
