    How do you guys all know the names of these things? o_0 What am I missing??? I also like the outfit. Can't see the first of the three paints (currently) though, as it's a cog. Clouded leopards are one of my favourite big cats, so that one's definitely exciting, and the tiger stripes are neat. @Angeló I am the same? I also think it looks like a GoT reference, but haven't seen any to know for sure. **shrugs** I am also slightly creeped out by the mouths on the two elderly pets. I know it's meant to be wrinkles, but for some reason they look like they're stitched shut to me.

    Well, I cannot beat the snowager on easy mode. I got him about 2/3-3/4 before his second hit finished me off, using the grenade/pea for the first round, then the pea/mystical tablet, then the pea/please let Illusen's staff do a bit of. . . nope, dead. Ah well, at least I know now!

    I've been sticking to hard difficulty because that way I get all my NP rewards early, and only have to play a few more to get all the regular rewards (and the koi warrior's dome supposedly has a higher chance of dropping codestones so I can train more!) after. Do the others give better rewards that'd make up for it if I sold them? And more NP, so I wouldn't need to play quite as many rounds per day to finish? I know some of the littler guys (like poor old Boochi) on easy mode only give like 15 np per battle, so that'd take forever.

    Woo hoo! I haven't tried stronger (yet, haha) but am itching to at some point. I mean, if nothing else I can go up against Boochi a few times using my healer, haha. I was floored when I saw it. I didn't even know it was in the prize pool until I saw a (TON OF) thread complaining about it on reddit, then a couple days later. . . I VERY quickly ran to my inventory and equipped it because I wanted to take no risk that something would happen to it.

    **looks sheepish** Welll, turns out I'm one of the lucky ones and got a seasonal attack pea from the advent calendar. Erm, wow! It's doing twice as much damage as the other weapons I have. So for a good strategy for anything potentially powerful in the upcoming plot, should I use the pea, either the grenade (first) or staff, maybe the shield, and my two faerie abilities? (ha. I need to look up when I can get more, and what is good, don't I?) This thing is ridiculous. It can take out the koi warrior (codestones!) in one shot without me needing a second weapon, AND I can use it with one of the other weapons to take out the Giant Spectral Mutant Walein!

    And don't forget (like I ALWAYS!!!! manage to!!!!) that the snowager is hibernating this month

    I wonder how the tinsel would look on my Zelda usul? Hahaha, terrible, if it showed up, I'm sure! Hm. The ribbon tail is cute, but I'm not 100% sold on the ruff. Don't like the plant one at all. Something about the bromeliad tail is weird to me, and the succulent ruff is okay at best. I really like the tinsel one, though. It's cute. Only bit I like from the roller derby (? I never know what these are called. . .) one is the ruff.

    I finished my dailies way early (NP time at least) this morning, but I really hope they let anyone who didn't have extra time on the daily quests for this. If someone's on their last day it'd really bite to miss it because the site was down. Same with Trudy tomorrow depending on how long it takes to fix. I've been getting errors for ages now. Figured it was just expected, haha. Playing Sakhmet Solitaire takes forever some days because it just times out or gives a 504 on at least 1/3 of the pages.

    Are shields actually worth it? I think I've asked this before. Like, the shield did around 35-40 damage, but my normal attacking weapons do 70-90. Small healing aside, why is it more worth it to do less damage and draw a fight out vs. doing more and ending it more quickly? Again, though, I've not ever gone for opponents that take (usually) more than one round to kill, so I'm not used to fights that go on a few rounds or more.
  10. GillyTook
    So I'd be using it a shield that also does a bit of damage and heals? Just to confirm.

    My weekly quest this week gave me a The Mystical Tablet (**eye twitches at the grammar**). Jellyneo rates it really high. Should I put it in my lineup? Oh, and I took your advice and just kept the Sword of Malum (wait, thatw as it, right? Eh, the one you said to keep) Illusen's Staff, healer, and pinberry for now. It's working, though I still don't tend to go for anything I can't beat in one round.
  12. GillyTook
    Might be saying this too early, but it seems to have been back at full functionality for the last hour or so. Hopefully it stays that way

    I adopted one named pteriteet from the pound a week or so ago. I'm SO tempted to make my parakeet look like a cockatiel for the sake of the ridiculousness now. Wouldn't even have to decide what to paint him as since it'd cover his existing feathers.

    hacking?

    GillyTook posted a topic in Neopets Help

    I'm assuming it's just that my browser is getting angry over all the timeout errors I've been getting lately, but has anyone else been getting the occasional message that the site isn't safe? It seems I can refresh and it goes away, but it's still a bit unsettling. I've gotten it at least once at the pound/looking up pets from lost and pound, once on the money tree, and a bunch of times in solitaire.

    I sold the soup and the knife because I didn't know they were good. **facepalm** Is the ghostkerbomb also once per battle, then you get it back, sort of like the pingrenade? I might hold off on that (I'm STILL trying to get to 100 million np in the bank, slowly as can be.) but could be a good upcoming purchase. For shields, I'm assuming I'd be using one weapon/one shield, right? So instead of doing double damage with two weapons, I'd be doing one weapon's worth of damage, plus blocking some of the attack coming at me? That's sort of why I've just been sticking to two weapons, really. I'll decide if I want to sell a second or get a bunch of other stuff (I'd be about 10 points short of everything I wanted if I got the second staff, so unsure right now!) Ohhh, and thank you

    It's fine! So I only need to look at the number of icons, and don't need to worry about defence much since I only do the 1 player BD? Edit: Also, though I'd miss some other prizes, would it be worth it at all to get a second Illusen's staff for a weapon, or just overkill when I could likely find something better? It didn't seem to do too much more damage than the other ones I've got did.
  17. GillyTook
    Okay. SO! If a weapon does icons in some random stat (light, dark, whatever) does that mean only opponents weak to that are hurt, that they have to block it separately/can be less effective if it's say light vs. a light enemy, or is it just a different way of doing the same thing? I think that's one of the things still confusing me.

    If you're using windows, you can also use the snipping tool to get screenshots. (unless microsoft has removed it) Search for snipping tool in the search bar, and it'll give you a little thing with a box that says "new"! on the side. You can drag it to select a portion, unless the ad goes away really quickly. You can also hit the windows key+r, then snippingtool (no space) in the run box to open it. Unless they're closing, I've yet to run across anything that the snipping tool won't let me grab.

    I got the names on those files backwards. Oops. Either way, insert the first, then the Spongebob "a few moments later" meme card, and we have the second.

    Have you run a virus checker lately? Sometimes it is because there is some sort of adware on your computer that is shoving them at you.

    The leafy wings are cute. Not enough so for me to get a korbat, but still cute.

    I have a tutorial quest to paint one of my pets. **groans** I had just gotten my account back to what it was before the faerie festival. At least the kacheek from a side account I want to make royal can't use my fountain faerie dip.
  23. GillyTook
    Happy (belated) birthday, @Pascalla The site has been taking up to 30 seconds to load/regularly not loading (504s or timing out errors) since the faerie festival for me. Honestly I didn't even notice the difference caused by this, haha. The tutorial is weird. I'm being asked to activate my account, but it has been activated for decades now. . . Also, I seem to be still getting the same quests, so when I get to work (aka have time to do some) I'll have to see if I can get the reward on both sides, or just the one. Edit again! I'm fairly certain some of my weekly progress reset. Quite interesting and irksome. I want to say I had 3-ish of it, but now I only have one. Hopefully that page doesn't reset when I get to work so I can confirm.
  24. GillyTook
    Awesome! I didn't even think about the healing springs. Thanks!

    Do you know if this is a limited time thing, or a continuous (so long as they don't get TOO too many complaints) thing? I don't like the wording on this. Does buy from any Neopian shop mean user shops as well? Because as much competition as there is from bots, the main shops are nearly impossible. Especially with the constant timing out. Edit: No, items from user shops do not count. Do we have to do all of them to get extra prizes at the end of a set time, or is it just I like this one, so I'll do this, or I like that one, so I'll do that? Especially since one is to feed my pets and I JUST put them in the neolodge. I'm not wasting the np unless it's necessary. Second edit: BE CAREFUL ACCEPTING REWARDS! It appears (unless it's a glitch) that you have the same list for daily and weekly, but can only claim it for one of those. So if you do all the quests and claim them on daily, you do not get any progress towards the weekly prize. Cheers, NP team. Much appreciated.
