I'm always happy to see more gourmets come out, by little gourmet-eater is always hungry :D
 
I'm really liking the week's recap! Helps me keep track of things I might want to get.

I want an Order avatar released, please! I promise to be good and actually get some battles done :P

Do you mean here or on Neopets? Because on TDN, then no - it's not against the rules to ask for help on coding, content, etc. of a petpage. It's also not against the rules on Neopets. TDN's rules are here, which is pretty concise and straight to the point. I can see how you'd be confused by Neopets' rules, though.

Oh dear, look at those prices x_x Well, SSWed - it's the best I can do!

Cool, congrats! :D That's killing two birds with one stone, huh? If only we were all so lucky. xD

I think this can mean only one thing: AA Sans Quotes is actually Chuck Norris.
 
Chuck Norris doesn't get likes. Likes get Chuck Norris.

In theory, this would be a nice idea and a helpful service to offer our members. However, there are quite a few problems I can see arising from doing this.
 
1. We'll get people begging for cheap items/items for free. Many people would use this service responsibly, but with this kind of setup, you know there would be people saying "Well, if you're selling it for 50k, why can't you sell it to me for 40k? It's not that much less" or trying to get free items. Surprisingly, there are a large number of people who think the ALP is simply a gifting service. I can't imagine what kind of people would emerge for this kind of deal.
 
2. I really, REALLY prefer keeping ALP transactions to sand only. Technically, the ALP account is a side account, though it functions in the same way as a guild donation account which TNT does allow. Because so many people contribute to it and we're saving for such a large goal, I want to keep the transactions as transparent and upfront as possible. When you see sand for thousands of neopoints in a shop, as well as our description clearly stating it's a donation shop, we're clearly within the rules. However, once we start selling a bunch of different items, or selling a bunch of different items in trades or auctions, it gets a little more fuzzy and, as the account is technically a side account, I'd prefer not to risk any transaction being misconstrued as against the rules. This is why we've always kept the shop strictly sand-only Don't get me wrong, we love that people want to help by donating items, but it would really be easier, as well as better for the account, if you would sell the items yourself and just donate the neopoints by buying sand.
 
3. It's very generous that people would donate nerks, but I can see the demand FAR outweighing supply. We already see this with normal ALP items. Since becoming a fansite, we average about 5 new item requests a day. Sometimes we get fewer, some days many, many more. However, we average about 1 donation every 2 weeks to the shop. As is common with most avatar-related business, the demand outstrips supply by a large margin.
 
If people wanted to do this individually with their own restrictions and requirements via a petpage, or even in a thread here on TDN, that would be fine and greatly appreciated, but as far as something like this being run by the ALP, it's not something we'd be interested in pursuing right now, due to the aforementioned reasons.

You could buy more weapons, but I really think you'll get better use out of training. Your pet only has a strength boost of 3! With your two anagram swords and your strength boost, you can do an average of 36 icons at 3 boost, or 108 damage. If you were to put just 10M into buying Altador Strength Potions, which tend to cost around 400k (though the price has been fluctuating), you could gain 125 strength points, making your strength boost 5.5. Then, you would do, on average, 209 damage. You've just almost doubled your damage without upgrading your weapons.
 
Even if your opponent blocks all of the air icons with Shield of Faerieland, they still can only block 5 icons of fire. If they have a defense boost of 2.5, like you do, then they'll block 12.5 damage of fire. With your current strength boost and the Sword of Reif, you're dealing 45 damage of fire, but if you increase your strength boost to 5.5, you'd be dealing 82.5 fire icons.
 
As long as your opponent doesn't have a full blocker, increasing your strength boost will increase the amount of damage you do to them.
 
Alternatively, you could increase your defense boost. Armoured Negg is the cheapest item defense increasers, and it tends to go for around 45K. With just 10M, you could buy 221 Armoured Neggs, to make your defense 314, which has a boost of 6.5. Let's say your opponent attacks you with a Sword of Reif for 15 fire and 3 physical icons. If you defend with your HNMS and your FTab, with the 125 defense boost, you block 30 damage of fire and 30 damage physical. Your opponent need only have a strength boost of 2 to get any damage through. However, if you increase you boost to 6.5, you would block 65 damage of each type. Your opponent would need to have a strength boost of at least 5 to get any damage through.
 
This is all assuming that you want to item train. You would save a lot of NP if you trained with the training school, and so you could get an incredibly formidable pet for your 100M. It takes a lot more time, though, which is why I suggested a few items that are stat increasers.
 
Honestly, your stats are pretty low for the strength of your weapons, and you can easily afford to increase your stats to a 5.5 boost on only a fraction of your budget. Training is the best option for you.
 
If you're still not convinced, consider if you were to fight my pet. I have a pet with over 500 strength and under 125 defense. Let's say you upgrade to Illusens Staff and get to the 125 defense boost. Knowing my weapons, your best move is probably to attack with your Illusens Staff and Faerie Tabard. In this scenario, you would do 13.3-19 icons, which is 39.9 to 57 damage, and you would defend all water, 15 fire, 9 air, 9 earth, and 15 physical damage points. The Illusens Staff also defends all dark and reflects 75% light. Now, I have terrible defense, so I would probably attack you with my Kelpbeards Trident and Brynns Legendary Sword of Wraith Smiting, which together do 10 physical, 2 light, 3 earth, 3 fire, and 11.25-19 water icons. All of the water and light is blocked, but with my strength boost of 11, I'm still doing 110 physical, 33 earth, and 33 fire damage to you. With your blocking, you're still taking 18 fire + 24 earth + 95 physical = 137 damage. Even with reflecting 75% damage of 22 light, which is only 16.5, I'm doing 137 to you, and you're doing 73.5. That means I'm doing 1.9 times the amount of damage I took from you, even when you're attacking at maximum. As long as I have more than 73 HP, which I do, I would win in one turn.
 
Alternatively, if you spent your 100M on training, you could probably take my pet easily. You could spend 30M on Armoured Neggs at 45k NP each to get 667 more defense points and max out at a 15 defense boost. Then you could spend 48M on Altador Strength Potions at 400k NP each and max out at a 15 strength boost. Now, with one of your anagram swords and your Faerie Tabard, you do 11.25-19 icons of damage, which is 168.75-285 damage points, and you block all water, 75 fire, 45 air, 15 earth, and 75 physical damage points. I can still get 22 light and 35 physical through, but now you're taking 57 damage instead of 137. Now, this fight will last 3 turns instead of one, so I need to have more than 506 HP to have a chance of winning. Plus, you still have 22M NP left over, which you could use to improve HP so 57 damage isn't close to half your health.
 
If you're interested in increasing your stats using items in order to do it quickly, check out our Item Training Guide and our Negg Training Guide at the Battlepedia. It has recommendations for increasers for each stat.

Ick, prices are rising. It's double its original value. Not a lot, but due to the hype, still pretty annoying.

I doubt it goes for 180k now, just check the "wishlist" part of the trade - I can see one now that is asking for 100,000 NP for a Snorkle Snout. It only goes by that much nowadays.

Again, all SSW priced for your buying needs :P

Thanks everyone! :D I was so excited yesterday and I actually fell inlove with my pink buzz. Which is ironic because I'm terrified of insects haha, but maybe pink insects aren't as terrifying?

Hey everyone..
just wanted to say sorry because I haven't been back in the BD yet. I've been busy. I will try and get some battles in tomorrow though :)
 
Good luck to you all

Looks like inflation/hoarding has started :P Lots in stock though so hopefully you won't miss it!
