Is Ray blind? (Think about it-it might actually explain a lot of weird Zaps, right?) Betone_Cheykie turned Ghost yesterday so today being Zapped Ghost (again) is NOT a "CHANGE"! Maybe we need to get Ray Thick Glasses?

You're welcome @mewthree21, I'm glad you found a reasonably priced upgrade to the Flaming Oven Gloves! As for which you should equip. I would say leave that to your playstyle and which opponent you fight. For example, against the Giant Space Fungus, you check his profile, https://thedailyneopets.com/battledome/challenger-giant-space-fungus and click on his equipment to see what each piece does. In battling him. Your Hanso Charisma Charm and Hubrid Nox shield, would stop almost all of his damage, though you could change it up and use your Craftsmans Lens to reflect half of his light and earth back at him while blocking any/all dark with the Hanso Charisma Charm which also does 10 icons of damage as a dual-duty weapon. In which case you wouldn't need either sword, "technically" speaking. The current list of all challengers is on this page, but the ones currently in the BD are the Active Challengers. https://thedailyneopets.com/battledome/secret-challengers I don't know why we don't have a page specifically for the actives and one for retired/past plot opponents, but I don't make the pages, and those staff have a lot to handle already. Anyway, if you wanted to go against, something with Fire weapons, say, Edna the Witch. https://thedailyneopets.com/battledome/challenger-edna-the-witch That would be a time to switch in your new Golden Garfir Helm for the fire/light combo defense. I recommend keeping some of your slots fluid, so that you can fight with say, 6 main pieces of equipment, and have 2 slots that you are alright with switching out if needed based on what a new opponent has in their arsenal. Whenever the next battle-plot happens, TDN staffers will be fighting to figure out what weapons and abilities each new opponent has and then get that info into the challengers database as soon as possible. Hope this answers your question.

Thank you @Aquamentis12! I ended up buying Downsize! And the Golden Garfir Helm which I found blocks 5 fire and 5 light so it is an upgrade to Flaming Oven Gloves 5 Fire and 2 Light it was also affordable I got it for 10k so more than Flaming Oven Gloves I saw those going for under 200! I know that the extra light might seem useless but sometimes I tend to only use 1 shield at a time so that is why I went with the Golden Garfir Helm for a little extra protection. As for what weapon I will be replacing it will be Craftsmans Lens. My playstyle has me using both swords at the same time often so unequiping one won't do... So I am left with a choice which I would like your thoughts on... Do I equip the Golden Garfir Helm for fire or Downsize! for the 50%?

@mewthree21, lol Considering what you must've spent on that battle equipment, I can understand you being nervous. lol But don't worry, that set is quite good and is more powerful than any of my weapons or shields that I regularly use. I've thought about getting a Sword of Reif, but I've been in "saving-mode" for so long, that I just can't part with that much NP right now. lol My DREAM weapon would be Skarls Sword, but I'll need another decade or more to afford it of what few exist out there. Skarls Sword is actually not terribly powerful, but it would be a useful dual-duty weapon and I really love it's graphic. lol Anyway, you've got a pretty top-notch set. The only thing that would make it stronger would be the Pea-family of weapons. Which everything is inflated now because of the rumor of an upcoming battle plot in the new year. For Defense, consider getting a Downsize!, as I suggested to Granny, and switch it in if you find yourself taking too much damage from an opponent that your shields won't block icons from. It will reduce damage taken by 50% once per battle. A lifesaver at times, and it's cheap. lol If you are worried about switching an item out, you could temporarily equip it to one of your other pets, until you need it again. Looking at your shields, you don't have anything to block fire-icons. Hanso's Charimsa Charm takes care of Dark while attacking with 10 icons, and Hubrid Nox's Shield takes a chunk out of earth, wind, water, physical, and also 100% of light. But your Craftsmans Lens is a bit redundant in that it reflects 50% of Earth and 50% of Light. Granted, this can be a good way of defending and attacking at the same time. But you should consider something with Fire Defense. A simple and CHEAP shield, Flaming Oven Gloves, block 5 Fire and 2 Light icons. And they are VERY cheap. Having one of those in your inventory to switch out with either Sword or your Craftsman Lens would be a good idea if you fight an opponent that has fire in their arsenal. There are other fire blockers and reflectors, but they are a bit more pricey and rare. Fire always has been a tricky icon to block for some reason. I can't restock either, so I understand the limitations that brings by way of funds. I play Trudy's Surprise daily, and for stats, I also visit Coltzan's Shrine. USUALLY the stat I get help with is intellect, but rarely I'll get a Strength or Defense boost of a several points. Also, for training, you might consider Kitchen Quests on Mystery Island. Doing these quests can SOMETIMES yield a 1 point gain in a random stat. Any except for intelligence. That includes Agility. But, since the item and NP prizes you can also get are rather low-value. I'd recommend limiting yourself to 5,000np per quest. That's what I do. If you get a stat point, great, if you get np, you'll be out around 4k np, if you get an item, it might be worth that much, it might not be. But you can go with whatever amount you feel is worth the gamble. You can do 10 on-site quests per day. That means that Kitchen Quests, Edna's Quests, Snow Faerie Quests, etc. all count toward those 10 completed quests per day. The count resets at midnight NST. I think that covers everything, let me know if I missed something or if you have any other questions.

Thanks @Aquamentis12 I will take your advice and train Shimmer in her other stats while saving agility for faerie quests! However those three yellow bars bother me XD So I may start training some agility once the other bars turn green... Hopefully I won't have too and I will get Air Faerie Quests semi often. Anyways um... I kinda spent a fortune on my battledome set lol I have had the same account since I was a kid its an 18+ year account but I just finished the set last month I'm a horrible restocker so I only buy books on half price day each month and I battle Jetsam Ace everyday because I think he drops more nerkmids then the Giant Space Fungus most days I get 1 or 2 nerkmids but a few days I have gotten 3 or 4!! I think it's because he has a lesser drop pool then the Giant Space Fungus so nerkmids drop more often. But um I looked up some info on what weapons are best Aquamentis12...I hope that you think my setup is good because omg the price I really don't want to have to change anything! I'm also scared that the pant devil will come and steal one of my weapons if I unequip anything! That honestly would make me cry like a little kid again lol. With that being said please be honest! I'm a grown woman I can take it! Ok I'm ready deep breathes... Aquamentis12! I am ready for you to review my battle dome set (GULP) lol
