OmniSoaker

The OmniSoaker was a Gadget that could suck up almost any liquid. It was engineered by Vullards for use in Raritanium Mines. It could suck up water, Breegus nectar, and oil. Water could be used fill up Hydroplants that could then be used as bouncy platforms to get up to very high ledges. Breegus nectar could be used to distract Tetramites. Oil could be used to loosen rusty bolt cranks or catapults. Hyper-Striking oil or hovering over it with Hoverboots set it on fire, damaging enemies that touched it. The OmniSoaker was given to Ratchet by a Vullard in Krell Canyon.

The OmniSoaker bore resemblance to the Hydrodisplacer in both its appearance and functionality.

Behind the Scenes
In addition to water, nectar, and oil, the OmniSoaker was originally going to have two more liquids it could use: Lava and Gelatonium. Gelatonium was cut because the OmniSoaker could already be used to pump up Hydroplants to reach high distances, and another way to accomplish this with the same Gadget seemed unnecessary. Lava was cut because Ratchet already had a variety of weapons to destroy enemies, and using Breegus nectar to make Tetramites kill enemies seemed more "Ratchet-y."

Trivia

 * The skill point You're Fired could be acquired by maintaining an oil fire for 30 seconds.
 * An interactable lava pool can be found in the Insomniac Museum, but Gelatonium never made it into the game.
