Holy heck no way. What prompted this?
I cant understand these brackeds on IDB what does it mean?
Looks ghostkersworidsh but with less icons.

Ok wow it makes sense now. Wow the icons are real spread out. 29 max is pretty good. Its pretty crazy spread though.
I wouldn't buy one.

[BuckFutter]

o__O Would be even worse if some of those icons turned out to be partial icons

Wait for the actual test specs. They will give you the percentage out of 100 tests on how often they show.

Even if the minimal was 1, it might only happen once in 900 uses....

[Jonny1988]

They certainly look cool lol. I think Ill save for SoS instead

[thorgal]

The air makes it hard to block also the water makes it a great anti - ghostkershield.
If it has a good avarage then I think I'll buy one.

[Waser Lave]

Looks like a decent weapon, makes a change from the usual crap they put out.

[Tsunade]

this weapon is better than SoS in 2player since it doesn't get completely destroyed like SoS w/Gshield or ROTL.
TWB is averaging 17 icons according to the BDC.

[Kabia]

If you don't understand the brackets;

It does either 3,5,6,8 of water, air, light and 1,2,3,4,5 physical...

Avg seems to 16.5. I wish they'd power it up just a bit more tho for the 13m.

[Scot]

Yes ^
brackets means they go together so [] is going to be either both or none.

[jcrdude]

So, if we were to assume that the three sets were equally likely (which I assume they might not be)...

B = 3A = Baseline
Additionals:
X = 2A
Y = A
Z = 2A

Possibilities:

B, BX, BY, BZ, BXY, BXZ, BYZ, BXYZ
3A, 5A, 4A, 5A, 6A, 7A, 6A, 8A

Probabilities:

3: 1/8
4: 1/8
5: 1/4
6: 1/4
7: 1/8
8: 1/8

I'm going to run a quick analysis on the weapon as a whole assuming equal probabilities to see the average damage :3

[Waser Lave]

I've added it to the Battledome Simulator if people want to play around with it.

[Wangalang]

Looks fun, time to try this out

[moosejuice]

I agree that the spread is pretty nice. I might need to get this just for that reason

[Noitidart]

I've thought more and more about it. I think its junk definitely not worth 13m.

[Tsunade]

Junk, but IMO better than SOS if it were more reasonably priced. Although I'd much rather have a Kelpbeards Trident because who doesn't have the G-Shield and who bothers with faeries talbard and hobans hat,

[stirlingL]

not just junk.. serious junk by my thinking maybe if it was 4 or 5 million cheaper it might be plausible but not at 13 mil

[emerkeng]

at that price range and a minimum of 10 icons go for the pcc

[stellanox]

Way too expensive to be a decent weapon

[emerkeng]

Way too expensive to be a decent weapon

tell me about it it would have to 5-7 mil to even be considered worth it . . .

[Redemptionist]

13mill is quite a lot for a weapon tho...

damn I've been gone from neopets a long time O.O Just bought kelpbeards trident using it as a tertiary attacker (backup weapon) and it make's this weapon look like shit it has mass water and physical and it's like the same as sos in terms of icons . . . my recommendations if you're thinking of buying twin faerie blades and you only have a bit less than 100 mil buy sos, pcc, and kelpbeards trident. if you're looking for main weapons.

[Ziz]

This weapon is like a PCC combined with an Kelpbeard's Trident.
Averaging 16.5 icons is not so bad at all, I think it's a little bad, but not useless at all .
It averages more against an G-Shield than an PCC, it's not destroyed by F-Tab, and it gets 5 icons through burrow and sink, and it's not destroyed by reflectors or very downgraded by pet resistances.

However I still prefer either a PCC or a KBT for those specific situations

[Whyumad]

It might be worth 8 million for those icons but defs not 13..
