Mouseykins Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I'm having serious problems with the destroyers and is hoping that one of you more experience fighters could help me with a strategy. My weapons are: honey potion, scarab ring, thief dagger, greater healing scroll, snowglobe staff, downsize, leaf shield, and supersize (no idea why I have that).

shinystarters Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I'm having serious problems with the destroyers and is hoping that one of you more experience fighters could help me with a strategy. My weapons are: honey potion, scarab ring, thief dagger, greater healing scroll, snowglobe staff, downsize, leaf shield, and supersize (no idea why I have that). im not that good, but i think you should take away ur scarab ring and replace it with a p-pot or v-pot, and do the same with the thief dagger. If you need it, here's battle dante's guide on the pots or potions. Well. The V-Pot and P-Pot (and a few others, but those are xpensive) use reflected icons. In a normal case, a reflector (An weapon that reflects a certain type/types of icons) requires you opponent to use that certain icon type against you for them to have any effect. Since it is their attack you are returning, it logically uses their Strenght boost (This working usually to your advantage). It also ignores the Stance you use. (So if you use Defend, which normally reduces the damage you both deal by 20%. However, with reflected icons, your opponents stance is calculated, but yours is not (Thus, you can use Defend stance, and you will not get the "penalty" to the amount of damage you deal, while it still lessens the damage you take. Now, P-pot and V-pot deal automatically such reflected icons. This causes 2 things: They deal the damage everyturn, no matter wether your opponent uses those icons. You still get the beforementioned advantages of being able to use Defend to full extent and using your opponents DEF boost. There is one thing to mention here: P-pots will only use your opponents STR boost if you go second. (In 1-P, the challenger always goes first unless they are frozen) If you go first, they will use your STR boost and apply your stance like normal weapons, expect that they cannot be blocked. These potions are the main key to my success in 1-P battling, and they can be used indefinitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate Dante Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 @shiny: No idea on that one. I only ever sw that in 2-P. @mouse:Force a freeze on first turn and then bomb them. That's quick and efficient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadaw the Rampage Posted October 22, 2010 Author Share Posted October 22, 2010 The snowball staff is a freezer. Thats what he means I beleave, use that freeze kill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate Dante Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Yes. since he asked a strategy, I went with what he had, and that is quite basic trick: Use freezer on first turn untli it freezes. Just withdraw if it doesn't. then you are free to bomb them on the next turn. that said, I really need a pink paintbrush. Or a faerie. Which I'll get from the plot most likely anyways.

Pirate Dante Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Yes, it does not heal, but if you carry a healer, you can use Bob to heal against, and then withdraw at full hP. Pink PB cause I have to have my pet look like a meepit. :P seems the challenger sets no go in a formation: weakest, medium, hard, weakest, medium etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

om nom CHOMP Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 AAARRG. I knew I should have taken it slower. It's going to be nigh impossible for me to kill another Destroyer. Well maybe if I get a decent weapon... I guess it's time to selling absolutely anything of worth that I can find in my SDB, then. Oh hello, Advent Calendar prizes from year 4. :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riverus Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I am discouraged. These are my pets stats: Level: 38 Health: 32 / 32 Strength: EXCELLENT (45) Defence: EXCELLENT (44) Is there anything I can buy relatively cheaply to make up for that? The first two time I fought the 50HP guy I lost during the first round. The third time I used Heal all the time instead of Fierce Attack, then Heal, but I still tied. I'd really really like to keep up with this, but I'm not sure I'll be able to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogue_nine Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Do you have to start over? Can't you just sit on your 5 previous victories and wait for the zealots to come back? I missed a zealot due to lag too. I'm not touching any other challengers until their wave comes back before trying to start over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clairekundinger Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I don't think its fair that I don't get the last two teirs!!! Do you think neopets would let me retry them if I told them I was in the hospital for 2 days having a baby!!! Going to try for the tasks now! How much are the books worth? do they do anything cool?

om nom CHOMP Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Having a baby!? And now your worrying about the plot?! That is some serious dedication. Heck, I'll send you my tier prizes if you really want them. They're only worth under 2k each. The tasks are fairly easy if you have at least a lab pet, but the Six Up, Six Down is a time-consuming pain in the neck. I finally got it just now. <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antiaircraft Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 ^ What he said. :P And congratulations by the way. ;) Considering the deflation impact from being given out as prizes to a whole bunch of people, the books aren't really valued that highly at the moment. And as far as I can tell, they're just normal books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadaw the Rampage Posted October 22, 2010 Author Share Posted October 22, 2010 The books are normal books. And the tier prizes are worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
