Plants vs Zombies 2 - Penny's Pursuit - Seedium Showcase - Fire Peashooter - Aug 2024

Plant of the Week - Fire Peashooter - was offered between August 4, 2024 through August 11, 2024.

Fire Peashooter is a member of the Pepper-Mint family.
Fire Peashooter costs 175 Sun. (-25 Sun at levels 6, and 10.)
Fire Peashooter fires a flaming pea which deals 40 damage. (+20 damage per level.)
When given plant food, Fire Peashooter shoots a flame down the lane dealing 225 damage to all zombies in said lane. (+25 damage at levels 3, 6 and 9.)
Fire Peashooter is immune to being frozen.
Fire Peashooter can melt nearby frozen objects.

Commentary:
Fire Peashooter is a strange plant, apart from the obvious. Fire Peashooter does decent damage which increases at decent rate as it levels up. But the plant food effect is rather weak - 1/8th the damage of last week's plant of the week - Jalapeño. The ability to melt ice and immunity to freezing winds is great in Frostbite Caves. But there are also levels where the heat generated is minimal.

Bottom Line:
Fire Peashooter is a situational plant. This much is obvious. If cold is not a problem with a level, there are plenty of plants which cost less and do more damage.
