What's the worst soaker
Well, everybody always has their favorite soakers and what they think is the coolest, most powerful, etc. How about a topic on what you think is the worst soaker. The soakertag lineup does not qualify though for obvious reasons.
I would have to say the backfire because I have used one and I swear, you get wetter than your opponent by the darn thing.
[edit] It's opponent, not apponent.

Are we talkin worst over all soaker? Or worst soaker for what it is ment to do.
My guess is the back-fire, although I havnt used one in a couple years.

I also vote backfire, I've used one before and the rear nozzle was better than the main nozzle, which points up at like a 70 degree angle and is nearly useless.
Well then, if you want to include overrated soakers then let's throw in the monster x and xl, no? I think the 4100 beats both of them.CPS 4100 because it's overrated.

I love the MXL. I would never use it for anything but base defense but I love it. About 50% of the people who own it like it/Don't. All the people who Don't own it hate it in spite of their lameness.
I just wish the pump on mine worked. Stupid QF only gun.

And the output matters nill because the range sucks. High output is useless if you can't get within range to return fire or attack. It takes forever to pump and is a great pain to carry around on a large battlefield. The only way I would use it would be as a supporting gun at the Reed Hill wall. Just another gun filled and pumped next to me in case I run out in a prolonged defense of the wall. I had about 4 guns ready lying next to me, and I would use the 21k's, 2500, and 4100 before even considering the mxl. Also to me the mxl is hardly intimidating, it is easy prey for my 21K's.

I Don't find the range lacking. At least on the 02' version. Sure it isnt amazing to say the least, but exept for my ocasional park battles, most battles (around houses) are close combat, and the MXL is a killer. Especially on the shower/fan nozzles. Those together could cover an entire pathway with so much spread. In a 'till they are soaked game, one well used PC could completely soak a guy. I know from experiance. (I've probably said this many times) Some guy came for our flag, and I soaked him to the bone, getting him out. They didn't try that technique again, not knowing that my pump didn't work, and I had no way of re-filling. Talk about intimadation. If the size doesn't get em, the outpoot will. I wish DA was here to back me up.

I'd say the backfire from what I've heard of it, but I have no personal experience with one, so I'd say the XP85 Triple Shot, because it's underpowered, underfed by a tiny PR, and one cannot turn off any of the nozzle to conserve limited water.
