  1. I have a BFC from the old days. I used to have an RFC, too, before I gave it to my brother who lost his old account info.

     

    BFC has the best freeze percentage for 2p. Garbage icons for either of them, but I tell ya, playing defensively it is heartwarming to watch your opponent scream at your statistically likely "lucky freeze" on the third or fourth round.

     

    Going head to head against Snowglobe Staff, alot of users give up the possibility of getting lucky since they lose a slot creating yellow snowballs or breaking. Frost Cannons deal more predictable icons but also are guaranteed never to waste your time by breaking before they freeze.

     

    Since the freeze is my win condition more than the icons, I'll take the better freeze chance, so BFC for me.

  2. Are the Ghostkerbomb and Ghostkershield classified as hidden tower items or as something else?

    ??

     

    They are both currently available to purchase from the hidden tower. I most certainly have no idea what "something else" could be.

     

    Let's hope they don't retire them too soon as they are staples of the higher end battledome sets.

  3.  

    Each day I am buying something more. That way it does not seem so bad spending my precious np lol

     

    Level: 32

    Health: 47 / 47

    Strength: EXCELLENT (46)

    Defence: EXCELLENT (41)

    Move: GREAT (24)

     

    Ick. You could probably take on my pet in a couple days, rate yer goin'.

     

    That being said, you are at least around Meuka level (gives avatar).

     

    Blessing your pet to get you Sink, Burrow, Drain Life, and a 33% restorer (there are different ones) only goes so far, so don't bless your pet with abiities you don't need.

     

    Stone Muffin is a 13.5 iconer. Water muffins are better, but since you are going after the avatar, any muffins you get for free (from fruit machine) might do the job at sufficiently high boost. You don't really need a healer if you freeze abuse, but if you are going to use a healer, greater healing scroll isn't too expensive an upgrade.

     

    The space Faerie apparently has 550HP. To get to that high level of Battledoming requires alot of expensive training (more than 10 times what you've already spent on codestones).

     

    However, if you are patient, the damage calculator says you can beat the space faerie for less if you use a lab rat.

     

    Step 1: Get the lab ray. Maybe it takes you a few months... or much longer to get a pet with 600 strength.

    Step 2: Freeze abuse with snowglobe staff or invest in a Scroll of Freezing. (Downsize will lower the healing expense, though lab rats tend to have high hp).

    Step 3: Berserk Attack with two Ornate Fighting Fan (or other 15 iconers).

     

    Note that Berserk Attack requires level 50, which is entirely possible with lab rat, or cheap enough if you already have 600 Strength.

     

    To beat Space Faerie otherwise requires overcoming her Jade Scorchstone. She's an older Battledome challenger, so her weapons are comparable to today's midrange and luckily she doesn't have a freezer, but that doesn't mean you won't be in for a long fight if you take her on. Either way, unless you have MAD BANK you are looking at a longue view of getting those last couple of pesky battledome avatars.

  4. Another question. While searching the battlepedia, I found the basic wepons sets. Now I am only going into battle to get the avatars, is the basic set good enough, or should I get the intermediate or the advanced. I am willing to invest to get the avatars, but what I don't want is to buy the basic, battle a couple of times then find out with harder opponents it does not work and I need to spend more np to get more wepons.

     

    Any and all advice is welcome

     

    IIRC, most of the avatars are about finding the right opponents. Some websites list helpful BDers that are willing to challenge/be challenged to get you most of the avatars. I'm not even sure you need to finish the match to get the avatar in some cases (2-player based). I'm not sure the hardest one to get, but I know that the Space Faerie is near it. You need a strong pet with strong/expensive weapons to beat her.

    This article on TDN gives a few tips.

     

    You'll probably want to look up the speed training guides as well. Get a pet to top tier combat readiness, equip it with a few tried and true anti-whateveropponentyouarefacing weapons, and take care of them then resell all your BD items to recoup costs.

     

    FYI, most really good BD items tend to go up in value over time so they are actually an investment.

     

    Hope this helps.

  5. Even the garbage is useful, if you have a skeith or a grarrl. I have four pets and when I remember to fish with at least a couple of them, I never have to spend extra nps on my skeith's food. These items are commonly sold in shops for 1np, so thanks to an underabundance of active skeiths and grarrls these items are bulking up Neopia's shops.

     

    I destroy these items when I get the chance, but my Skeith can only eat so much. Also, I don't know if the 'discard' function actually eliminates these items or just donates/rubbishes them.

     

    Just trying to do my part to keep inflation down.

  6. So I was lucky enough to restock one on a lazy Saturday morning. Attaching my surprising first test. Anyone more officiating want to take her out for a spin to fill in the TDN battlepedia (before those FH guys?)

    Note: I don't know if google photo lets me use these links right.

     

    In any case, the in-shop value is just over 30k. It can do 10 icons.

     

    Further testing required!
