Everybody thinks that witches are evil. But how can a transformation of the evil warrior into a tiny sheep be a bad thing? The fact that you kill it afterwards with a bazooka is your business.

—Weapon description in the Gallery

The Witch's Sheep Cauldron is a Special weapon introduced in the 16.5.0 update but was unavailable until the 16.6.0 update. It can be obtained for a limited time as part of the Trader's Van event in the armory.

Description[]

Witch's Sheep Cauldron is a magic-themed weapon that shoots out magical purple "water". This weapons deal high damage (when fully charged) with a decent fire rate, high capacity and low mobility. 

Appearance[]

It takes the form of a small cast iron cauldron with a sheep's skull at the front, holding a bubbling purple potion. And a small wand with a small sheep figure on top of it.

Since it has the charge shot attribute, the player will stir the wand in the solution until the fire button is released, when released, it shoots a purple projectile, which will turn an enemy into a Sheep upon hit.

Performance[]

When the fire button is held, the player will start charging the gun by stirring the cauldron. When the weapon is fully charged, a purple magic power will appear, notice that the next shot will turn the enemy into a sheep. 

When an enemy is turned into a sheep, he/she cannot use any weapons or gadgets and the camera will switch to a third-person perspective. The screen will also say "You turned into a sheep". As a sheep, the affected enemy can move, jump, and attack, in the same way a pet sheep would. The affected enemy will revert back to normal 5 seconds later.

When the weapon needs to reload, the player will modify the cauldron, make the magic water inside it boil again and continue the battle.

It has Fixed Delay. This means that once the player switches from any weapon to this weapon, the Witch's Sheep Cauldron will always have a pull-up delay lasting around half of a second.

  • Formerly, there was a developer oversight where the text notifying that a player has turned into a sheep will be in Russian, regardless of the language.
    • This issue was fixed later.
  • This weapon might be a reference to the wizard zombie from Plants vs Zombies 2 as the zombie turns plants into sheep.
  • It is the second most expensive coin weapon, costing 3850 Coin or 1000Tickettrans to obtain.
  • In the Armory, if one is patient enough to watch the animation of the player holding the Witch's Sheep Cauldron, he or she will notice that the player in question is drinking something from it (but no liquid is shown dripping towards the player).
  • If you use this weapon while monster hunting and hit the monster with a full charge you will turn them into a sheep and when the transformation is over they turn into a normal player although they have floating monster arms, they will have all there weapons but they don't do damage, the full extent of this glitch or intended feature is unknown.
