I'm still hoping they don't add anything NEW for Day8, but it WOULD be JUST LIKE TNT to do that, the stinkers! LOL

 They WOULDN'T! ...would they?! Lol, guess we'll just have to wait and see.  I'll get my big girl panties ready in case I have to put them on to deal with it

God, I hope they don't add a 2nd assassin, that would royally STINK!

Although I just had this idea, what if TNT decides to put moving pieces into the game in the next few days. That would really make it hard. I hope they don't. 

 

EEK, don't give them any more fiendish ideas haha! 

Just completed day 7 - 1 assassin, 2 decoys and 12-16 units to place. As I said on a previous day, don't be afraid to restart levels as you often end up with an easier board 

Mine keeps switching between horizontal and vertical boards between levels too, I certainly find one less confusing than the other.

DAY 6! Much the same as Day 5 but there is one more decoy and a few more units to place.

I'm grateful that they at least increase the points per round each day, otherwise this would be impossible

Ok, thanks for your help. Funny I couldn`t find info, must not happen very often, lol. Cheers!

Happens to me sporadically, just withdraw and start over - not a huge deal.

Yup, it will. But the good news is your win/loss count doesn't really have an impact on... well, anything

 

 So true lol

Haha, thanks for the vote of confidence, but no I really can't. >_< Because of my MS my brain's processing speeds are about on par with an old computer running on Windows 95. To be honest, everything about this game is things that my brain struggles mightily with, so I'm just happy that I got gold on Days 1 and 3. I'll try all the days, but I'll know quickly each time when to give up, lol.

Oh sorry, I didn't know about your MS! Keep up the good work 

Really a challenging one today!! I certainly recommend what others have said about restarting levels because you often get an easier board to contend with - that's what I found anyway.

Assassin is most definitely quicker today.

Don't lose heart people! You can do it!!! (I'm talking to you @jellysundae )

If not for Malum I'd be Brute Squad all the way this time, because I'd want to try for the only avatar I need out of the 3 factions... BUT Strength of Mind boon is the only chance I'd ever have of defeating that @#$% on hard so I'll be choosing Seekers and praying for a win.

Here's hoping he's still in battledome when the skirmish is over - and that Seekers win of course!

But there's an achievement for completing 4 battles on release day and for completing all 8 battles on release day.

@Musical_Shoyru maybe some generous Neopian will help you out if it's a stamp or other collectable. All hope is not lost!

Oh, I see.

Haha, you can tell I'm still very new to this type of site event.

Ooh just noticed the title had changed!

THAT'S AWESOME

So I was sick and missed day two (although I could of sword I did it)... I'm guessing I'm not going to get the prize for clearing all the areas the day they were attacked, which is going to really bum me out if it's a stamp or something. They really need to give people some slack on these things. Things happen :(

Fairly sure you can still complete it. A friend of mine did days 1, 2 and 3 all today and received all achievement prizes.

Definitely achievable.

My strategy was just to ignore the assassin and if he annihilated one of my placed pieces I just quickly replaced it. I managed to get required points first try. So don't stress about him or check his timer or anything because that will just slow you down.

Sounds like you're doing everything right. It did take me a heck of a lot of refreshes to get this one, just takes persistence 

First try 1344, then seemed to get in the swing and got 1506 on second attempt.

Not looking forward to the future days, they're gonna tax my poor aging brain haha. Perhaps should try to relish the challenge, they say these things might help ward off alzheimers and dementia after all 

So sad to read, just when i was feeling excited about having completed my first ALP lend and was looking forward to some more!

Now I'm worried about losing something myself  OMG I'd feel AWFUL!!

Have made a couple of purchases to try to help out .

My failure today is just having missed a Magical Pea Chia Pop on the Money Tree.

I guess not quite as bad as the failure of the person who donated it in the first place because they must not have known it's value! 

On a mish today!

It is listed in Jellyneo's item database https://items.jellyneo.net/item/54475/ - there just don't seem to be that many around any more. I think I saw one on the Money Tree a while back. Looks like you should be able to sell in your shop for around 6300 NP.

Oops, on seeing the entry below, it seems I've misunderstood your issue - just ignore me! :)

If the style or formatting of the JN guide isn't working out for you, this is the one I've used on all three modes and I've found it very helpful (and more detailed): http://www.neopets.com/~winnie_1964. And I use this for maps: http://www.neopets.com/~__Ale__#Western. 

Fabulous, thank you @kayahtik, I'll definitely take a look at those.

And what a price lol! Might have to wait til the third Wednesday of the month... 2029

I just finished NQII yesterday in normal mode. I used the JN guide the whole way through, and it WILL tell you if there is someone you need to specifically talk to. On occasion, there will also be whole areas you can skip. None of this will effect you earning the trophy. The thing to be aware of, however, that wasn't made particularly clear in the guide - are the rest stops. If your characters are not in need of a rest to top off their health meters, or if you're just trying to save money, think again. Those rest stops are also save points of a sort. If you were to 'die', you'll start again at the last rest stop you visited. Thankfully this never happened to me, but I didn't even realize it until I was over two-thirds of the way through the game. Good luck!

Oh, ok thank you! I must not be reading thoroughly enough 

Thanks @kayahtik yes I'm following the jellyneo guide. It doesn't seem to specifically say I NEED to talk to a certain person so do I just ascertain that myself by scanning the conversations to see? For instance picking up Mipsy and visiting the guy who gives a password etc? Sorry I'm such a noob in this area of neopets, previously only played the flashgames.

Haha, I'm glad it's not just me @jellysundae, I already feel like I'm going insane with the sheer length of this thing! 

Hi there, I have a question for all you seasoned NQII players ( @rntracy1 @kayahtik maybe?) - is it necessary at each stop to visit every person?

Will I still get the trophy at the end if I skip a lot of them? I have just arrived at Lakeside and there are soooooo many people. I find visiting each one very tedious. Life is short and I am old...

Oh good grief it's that easy?! Haha, I didn't realise that would work with something that included an animated image and was fiddling about trying to 'insert other media' with the url 

Thank you @etrnldarkness

Aah February 4th, how I've waited for you...

I'd be ever so grateful if someone could tell me how to properly post the actual notification rather than a snip of it as I've been doing. Thank you in advance!
