My main account, squirrely520, has been unfrozen! It took about two months and I had given up hope. I am so relieved, and it's just in time for the Altador Cup too!

Sorry for the long buildup to my question. If I'm wrong about what's in the buildup, please correct me. If I'm right, maybe someone will find it useful.
So I've become really into battling in the 1 player battledome recently. I started out training my jubjub, Anarchy_3_3, specifically to get the meuka avatar sometime between last years faerie quest event and now. I got it eventually, and kept going. My jubjub has long since gotten me the ghost lupe and the black pteri avatars, and I hope to one day to have her able to beat the space faerie (I have her as a challenger already from one of the pieces of merchandise I asked my dad for years ago- before I even used the battledome). In the meantime, I discovered the usefulness of beating the other challengers within my range for the various prizes. There is something I don't understand though, and I can't find the answer anywhere. According to the source I'm using (Jellyneo's battlepedia) the amount of damage my own neopet can deal with an equipped item (assuming for the sake of simplicity that nothing is blocked by the opponent) is based on her attack stat and the number of attack icons that item deals. The amount of damage she can block with an item is based on her defense stat, the amount of icons of each type that item blocks, and what type of icons she was hit with. Anarchy_3_3 is level 63, has 138 hp, an attack of 81, and defense of 94 (Thank you to the latest faerie quest event for really adding to her training). Lets say she throws a shooting star muffin (15 icons, 5 each of fire, air, and dark). She has the potential to do 30 damage if the opponent blocks nothing or if she uses lens flare, since 81 attack means 2 damage per icon. For defense, lets say she uses the parchment cloak to defend from an opponent with her exact stats throwing the same muffin back at her. It blocks no fire icons, 5 air icons (yes, her intelligence is above 150), and about 2.6 dark icons. 94 defense means 2.5 damage per icon can be blocked. She gets 10 damage from the fire attack, the air attack is completely blocked, and she gets only 3.325 damage (not sure how it's rounded in actual battle) from the dark attack (2.67 icons multiplied by 2.5 blocked per icon), for a total of either 13 or 14 hp lost. First off, Am I right?
Main question: do the challengers in the 1 player battledome have stats that behave in the same way? All I can find on different guides regarding the opponents themselves is the hp each has on each difficulty level and each one's abilities and items. It would be nice to know, for example, how much damage Viras Winged Dagger's 8 icons of darkness can do when fighting her at a medium difficulty before I decide what items I should use to go up against her. I could always purposefully take a hit without trying to block anything to satisfy my curiousity, but losing isn't fun and my jubjub doesn't have enough of a hp advantage over medium toughness Vira for that to not be a major risk. Can anyone help answer this?

This is AWESOME news!!! I am usually on right at midnight Neopian Time (and used to get shafted out of the first day of events all the time as a result) so I am pretty happy to hear that :)
Also, in case anyone else finds this useful, I thought I'd share: 
This is a link I found once that has hyperlinks to most faerie quest items. I use it whenever I have a faerie quest and can usually get what I need from it: http://www.neopets.com/~margaritza

Oh wow! I'd never noticed that about dress to impress before! Another piece to the puzzle, I guess. Thanks!

I wasn't paying attention, so I don't know what the event said. However, I ended up with a Christmas Uni Morphing Potion in my inventory that I definitely didn't buy, so I must have gotten one. Nice!

I have a question about the same avatar. Does it have to be a two player battle? 

It's my first one ever!!! I very rarely check the Kadoatery, given how rarely it is that they want anything I can afford. I was checking someone's user lookup out of interest (She bought something from my shop and her username caught my eye as I was clearing my sales history), and it said she had fed 2 kadoaties in her list of trophies. She inspired me to try my luck, and one wanted a fig. It was in a shop for between 70,000 and 80,000 neopoints, was expensive but still manageable for me! From what I'm reading on the guide, I was lucky to have time to go to the shop wizard and buy the item. Now that I've done iot once, maybe I can do it again! I know the avatar is 75, and that's a long ways off.

Someone else posted (almost) the same topic here: http://www.tdnforums.com/index.php?/topic/47647-fed-my-first-ever-kadoatie/. I always thought Kad feeding must be expensive, but when I started Kadding, I found that wasn't often the case. In fact, I never bought an UB item and most food items I bought were under 5K NP. Hard part about Kadding is timing. I felt I was living life in 7 minute intervals. My goal was feed 2 Kads a day, while going for the avatar. That was do-able. Some days I got luckier and fed more. Some days were not so lucky and I didn't get a feed in. But I kept at it and got the avatar in about 2 months time. You can do it, too. The best information for Kadding and for timing is on the "Games" Neoboard. There is always a "Kad" topic and usually a "Kad" Neo icon is in the title. The first post has petpage links for lists of Kad foods and how Kadding works. Good luck, keep at it, and you, too, will be the proud owner of the Kad avatar!
