itsbeenawhilebut Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I was feeling a little down yesterday so as a surprise, my boyfriend gets me a $25 Neopets card! Now, don't get me wrong, I was and still am super excited about all the cool stuff I can get but I mostly feel overwhelmed by all the options I have. I'm a fan of customization but nothing really jumps out at me in the mall right now. I've been debating faerie quest cookies, mainly for the FFQ, and also as something new to look forward to... for a week anyways :) Any suggestions/opinions? Are faerie quest cookies worth it?

Mouseykins Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 You could get the history capsules for the History Adventure. There's a bonus prize at the end to those who get all the capsules from the mall. Just an option. As for the faerie cookies, I haven't purchased one so I don't know.

andaraen Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I bought 5 Faerie Fortune Cookies, used 3, and my pet has gotten a bunch of stats she wouldn't normally get, but no FFQ yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that the Faerie Quest cookies are the only cookie that are actually worth it. It can give you a FFQ, but also its good for battledomers like myself. Although from your pets stats I think it would be better to train since it doesn't take that long. So you should look at both the pros and the cons.

So you should look at both the pros and the cons. I agree with Pratik. Although I'm hoping for a FFQ, I'm still pretty happy with the stat increments c: And since you redeemed a cash card, you got gift boxes too (I assume) so you could look at 'retired' NC items and see if anyone wants to trade for something that's currently in the mall.

hrtbrk Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I'd wait if nothing currently interests you. Fall, Halloween and winter/Christmas are coming up and awesome items are usually available then :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OH! I never thought of doing that.. brb going to spend hours on dress to impress looking at all the old nc items :D But when you trade NC items with someone, how do you make sure that they don't just accept your item and not give one back? o.o I'd wait if nothing currently interests you. Fall, Halloween and winter/Christmas are coming up and awesome items are usually available then :D Another reason to look forward to Christmas :D Do you know when the fall items start coming in?

Fall items should be coming out during maybe late September. But I would wait for Halloween. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperAttackPea Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 They are worth it for me (Battledomer) but I don't have $ to buy them but the ones I got for free I'd have to say they saved me around 2 million neopoints in stats increasers. As for ffq, sure, but the odds are still pretty low, my friend told me about 1 in 200 quests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebecca~ Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 If you aren't bothered about your pets' stats, don't bother with the Faerie Quest cookies. I've bought 13 so far (and used all but one or two), and I haven't had a FFQ. I'm interested in increasing Ansteigen's stats though, so I am plenty happy with all the Battle Faerie quests I've been getting instead. :) Like others, my recommendation is to wait until the new items are out- should just be a couple weeks! - or try to do some trading. :) Best of luck!

Just be wary that some people might not be so well versed in trade etiquette and might accept before they send their share, so give them a minute before hitting report.

tazrandus Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 You need at least 1050 NC to complete the history capsule adventure to get the first bonus item. To get the 2nd bonus item, you'll need at least one limited edition item from each different type of capsule. Here's the TDN guide: http://customize.thedailyneopets.com/index.php/articles/viewarticle/adventure/ The deadline for the first capsule is the 2nd of September so if you want to make the most of this opportunity you better be quick! I thought it might be a great opportunity for you if you're interested because I'm sure a lot of people would want to trade the NC items in the future as they are limited edition. You can spend NC really quickly so use it wisely. I agree with the others saying that it is worth buying Faerie Quest Cookies but like what pratik said it's maybe better to train your pets up to the point where upgrading a stats costs a lot (such as 3 codestones) so that each faerie quest completed will seem like a more valuable gain. You don't have to use the cookies immediately after purchase so you can buy them and store them in your SDB for later use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I've been looking through at the capsules and the limited edition items and none of them are really catching my eye. Just my opinion, but some of them (i.e. Coltzan's floating ghost) just freak me out :P Just another quick question, does NC expire or do you have an unlimited amount of time to use it? :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they warn you and give you a 30-day time frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karmacow Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 From the FAQ: Does my Neocash expire? Yes, your Neocash expires one (1) year from its purchase date. Upon expiration, your unused Neocash will be automatically exchanged for a Neocash item(s) of equal value. Any Neocash items purchased with expired Neocash will be placed in your Inventory.

Saxen Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Awww that's so sweet of him!! <3 Bless. Personally I'd spend the whole lot of Quest Cookies XP I've bought 9 and gotten 2 FFQs, currently on my last cookie. I'll probably buy more :P So fun to have as a daily!

Aha yes it definitely made my day :D I was like, over the moon happy and I don't think he expected me to be THAT happy. I had to compare the NC card to him meeting his favourite sports team for him to understand :P Well I bought 2 of the faerie quest cookies and hoarded them in my SDB :) I don't really want to spend too much on the cookies since a lot of people have gotten me excited about the upcoming fall/winter NC items. 2 FFQs?! :O Lucky duck!
