Viridian Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Hey! I was wondering if people could help me making my pets ready for the battledome and explain me how everything works there. Maybe there's some newbie guide to it because I've honestly never really had a battle in the battledome before(that was successful, anyway :P ) Please help me out here. I just want to battle for avatars mainly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephie23 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Thats what I did it for!! I'm still not anything close to an expert. What I did was go to the MI training thingey, and the first thing I focused on was HP (hit points). Now I'm raising strength and defence, but I still personally think that HP are one of the most important things. (of course any one stat can only be twice your level, so if you have level 40 then max strength is 80). Next I went out and bought some really expensive Battledome items. I used TDN battledpedia to seek out some items that sounded good... (I avoided the hidden tower though.. lol a little too far out of my price range) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yishie Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 battledome is one of my favourite things x) the most important thing is training and strategy a good battledome set and faerie abilities are extremely helpful the 1st thing to do is train your pet this can be done in many ways for me, I used the lab ray and kitchen quests to train my pet. I supplement the training with schooling (I usually train level, strength and defence at the schools becase the lab ray raises my pet's hp alot, which can unbalance my pet's stats and make it untrainable--> I like balanced and trainable pets xD ) If you're just going for the avatars, there's TONS of guides on beating specific challengers, so you really don't need to worry much about strategy since the guides give you good ways to defeat the challengers 2-player strategies require more thinking, but you're only going for the 1-player avies, so don't worry about it. x) I don't battle much anymore on my new main with my new battle pet anymore, but I can still remember most of what I used to do x) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 YAY FOR NEW BATTLERS! tdnBP has tonnes of guides, and of course, reviews for a lot of the good weapons... and the not so good weapons. It also has a full list of 1-player challengers. Training is the first thing that you'll have to do before you go into the arena, and so the Fast Training Guide and the Item Training Guide will be good for you -- I know they were for me. The other training guides there are also helpful. Looking for some avatars, eh? Then look no further than the 1-player Challenger Guides on the BP! With FULL guides for the Black Pteri, Defenders of Neopia 2, the first DoN, the Meerca Henchman, Meuka, Snow Beast and the Space Faerie, you'll the never lose another battle against them again! And, for DoN, you'll earn some slick trophies. And, if the challenger you can't beat doesn't have a guide, find their 1P profile. That'll give you their stealing order (if one has been found, it will have information about a stealing order on that page), difficultly, HP and where to find them. A full list of BD avatars can be found on this Neo Avatars page. Of course, as you can see, I love the tdnBP. I'm on trial there, so this post is all biased. :P Also, some other guides that are helpful are the Faerie Abilities guide, the Damage Calculator (useful for choosing good weapons for certain challengers) and the Obtaining Tonu and Jetsam avatars easily guide. I hope all of these links help, and just ask if you need anymore help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephie23 Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Okay Im so finding this post extremely helpful Lion! :) you are the best!! :P I think I waste np. I barely raised my defence and now im paying 3 codestones a time to get up there. And I taught my pet every faerie ability you can (maxed her right out! :P lol). Oh well! :) its only fake money anyways ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viridian Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 Wow thanks a bunch for those links Lion! I'll go check them out after doing my dailies :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephie23 Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 somehow i managed to beat the black pteri with little to no trouble :P I wish I had of known there was a guide for it though!! If I ever get that space faerie code I will be using her guide for sure!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viridian Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 Hmm so it's mainly a lot of money involved.. blah :P Oh well, better get started on that training! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephie23 Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 ya Ive been training at mystery island recently, and I forgot how costly it can get to move up just one point (mind you I had to use 3 eo codestones, I have no luck what so ever!) :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alt1981black Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 All my pets are still pretty weak in their stats. I really need to start training them some more. That's one thing I don't do too often with my pets. Some have high levels but low hp, and one has high hp and low level. I really need to buckle down and work with them some more.

Hanakochan Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 is a lab ray a map? ... everyone keeps talking about it but i have no clue what it is. Yeah, in order to get to the lab ray you have to buy a pretty expensive map. xP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kex Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Yeah, in order to get to the lab ray you have to buy a pretty expensive map. xP The ray is what, 800k right now? For what it does, I'd consider it extremely cheap. If you zap long enough, your pet's overall stats WILL go up, although typically their level won't be very high(in my experience). I personally think the ray is completely worth it; I recommend it to everyone, for training or just for giggles. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephie23 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Unless of course you like the species/colour of your pet, then the lab ray isn't the best option. .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kex Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Unless of course you like the species/colour of your pet, then the lab ray isn't the best option. .. ...Yes, this is true. XD I'm actually hand-training Algae for just that reason, so I'm not sure why I forgot to mention it. Lab training IS faster, though, and overall cheaper, but if you want your Pirate Draik to kick everyone's butt you'll have to go about it the long way. ^^; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephie23 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 or (as in my case) your maraquan chomby :P ... but w/e its cheaper to raise it via MI than it is to repaint him maraquan (or worse lose the chomby) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viridian Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 I'm handtraining my kougra iriskuppen too now. I don't zap her cus im scared she'll change into some gnorbu or something :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Wow BFL, I really didn't have any idea just how many resources were out there for BD newbies like myself. Thanks for putting them all in one post! A quick question though... are all items one use? I don't really want to spend like 100 000NP on a sword or something, only to lose it after a battle against say Punchbag Bob... - Apollo ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephie23 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Some items are one use (ie. smoke bomb, muffins) Some items are limited use or 'breakable' where they last for a certain amount of turns, or up to (can break at anytime - ie. scroll of freezing). Then some items are usable only once in a battle, so they dissapear after one use, but come back after each battle (ie. scorchstones, freezing wand thingey). Then lastly theres the unlimited use, they never disappear and they can be used multiple times in battle (ie. prickly potion, leaf shield, golden compass, etc.) I hope that was helpful...

Hanakochan Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Um, how does training work exactly? I know this is probably a really silly question, but I read the TDN Fast Training Guide, and I was a little confused. I know the Mystery Island School has a method to gaining the max number of points for certain levels, but is it the same system for the Swashbuckling Academy too? Sorry for the dumb questions. xP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viridian Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 I'm doing pretty good! My pet was already lvl 32 so right now I'm just training hitpoints to the max level before leveling up even more. After that I'll do strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
