Would in be practical to make homemade soaker balls or would it be better to use an ordinary sponge and would that even be practical.

If you are talking about the "soaker attack balls" that come with some new super soakers (mainly the Triple Aggressor), then I would not even attempt to make them because I believe that they will not really get your enemy wet. I do not believe that "soaker balls" would be useful because if you got hit by one it will only leave a small wet spot at most.

If you would really like to make one (I don't know why), you could use a sponge like you had said. You could also use some toilet paper, which would act like a giant spit wad.

I chucked my 'awesome super attack ball' that came with my 3XA. I will always miss its ability to completely drenchify opponents.

They really aren't worth it. Just use water balloons, they are much more effective.

I just bought a pack today, and honestly, they aren't worth it, at least for UWF games. Mine were an off-brand, so that's worse, but in general, the little spot of water won't even be noticed as compared to a water balloon.

them watter balls are onley good for puting "BIG RED SPOTS" on people. mabey you can get them wet enough if you scare the crap out of them, theyl wind up wet mostley around the pants, which is bad.

like it was said before "soaker balls" are nice for a small wet spot but nothing more.----->If you like them as much as it looks like you do, then count them as one hit kills or somthing. If not then stick with the water balloons

Water fight noob, this topic is really ageing, and your reply hasn't added to this topic - please check dates on topics before posting.

For most 1 HK fights, 5 ml of water is enough to cause a fist sized patch (I've checked), assuming it all hits roughly the same spot at reasonable velocity.

A soaker attack ball is more than sufficent for a 1HK - it can cover an area 2 to 5 times bigger than necessary (depending on size), and is reusable (not good for soakfests - they'll just throw it back).

A water balloon will deliver more water to the target in total, but isn't re-usable - use it for wbls or soakfests.
