Water Gun

A pump-action water sprayer whose one real job is watering planters from a few steps away. It does nothing in a fight, so keep it at home.

Overview

In-game description
A large water gun with pumpable pressure. Hold reload to pump!

Keep it at the farm. Fill it with fresh water and it reaches over a row of large planter boxes from where you stand, which beats carrying a water bucket to every box. That is the main reason anyone keeps one in a base.

It runs on pressure. Hold R to pump before you fire: the more you pump, the longer and stronger the jet, and an unpumped gun barely dribbles. Newcomers fill it, click, see a few drops and decide it is broken.

In a fight it does nothing useful, so leave it out of your roam kit. Water is said to put out the flames incendiary ammo leaves on the ground, but test that on your server before you count on it.

Want something lighter that shoots without pumping? The water pistol does that, with less reach.
