Neomancer Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 The most frustrating random event is getting the Snowbeast challenger for Defenders of Neopia. I have refreshed at the Advent Calender forever. Now I just gave up. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassine Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 The Wheel of Knowledge -- I keep trying for the avatar, even though I only ever get pieces of "wisdom" or some 1 neopoint item. So I daily waste 400 neopoints. Lamppost 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderFoxgirl Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Somethings I dislike. I feel like venting. Sorry if it seems like a lot. XD 1.) When I get a quest from whoever and the items they want are seemingly ordernary things. So, I look them up and see they aren't too expensive maybe a couple hundred np, but aren't in stock. Well, I use the wizzard and people have them priced for thousands of neopoints. o_o I don't like doing quests for this reason. 2.) I also dislike what some others here said. The items you will probably never see on the market. Even if you can save up for them. 3.) The rarity of paintbrushes. I used to play as a kid and played for years and NEVER got a paintbursh. I have a new account and I doubt I'll ever get one. (I have a couple painted pets, but I adopted them.) 4.) I don't like the lausey amout of np you get from games sometimes. It might also be because I'm not the greatest at some of the games... 5.) I wish all neopet species were more avalible. Though I don't mind some being harder to get, like the Draik. I REALLY want a Cybunny. :( (I can't find a magical plushie and even if I did find one I doubt I'lll be able to afford it.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I REALLY want a Cybunny. :( (I can't find a magical plushie and even if I did find one I doubt I'lll be able to afford it.) A lot of PBs have become super cheap thanks to games and events. The ones put out by Key Quest are all buyable- Speckles, Camoflague, Tyrannian, etc. Snow and Christmas are both buyable. With a little work (or a fully leveled Habitarium) they can be reached in no time! Same goes for getting a Cybunny- morphing potions and stuff are expensive, but not as expensive as they used to be. I've always found the best part of Neo is to have goals- without them I get bored. If everything is easily achievable- can be saved up for in ust a couple days- is there any real point? The estimated price that you can see when you look up an item on the sidebar is NEVER accurate. I suggest that you don't even look at that- go straight for the shop wizard. :) Lamppost 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Charismatic Enigma Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 At least for right now, the inflation of all the codestones. Makes it so hard to train your pets :( Lady Lyuba 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Lyuba Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 At least for right now, the inflation of all the codestones. Makes it so hard to train your pets :( OMG. THIS ^ RIGHT NOW. I am totally suffering for it. :( I neeeed my codestones and it's draining my bank! And then there are the most superior weapons costing millions of NP when I'm not very good at making NP. Especially when I have to spend so much of it on codestones. I feel like achieving those weapons is a goal that is years away.... Hubrid Nox Memorial Shield, Ghostkerbomb, Jade Scorchstone, Sword or Skardsen, I'm coming for you! In...maybe 7 years or more.

It helps people get their dream pets (as long as it's a pet the lab ray can give). You don't even have to be a member, just read through their rules and you can submit wishes and if other people happen to zap a pet that someone has wished for they offer that person to adopt their pet. It's not a guarantee since the lab ray is so variable, but you can submit a wish for a faerie or zombie or even basic Cybunny and you may be give the chance to adopt one. Just a suggestion as it would be much, much cheaper for you :) karmacow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kris10ly Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Right now, it's definitely the people who ask redundant questions about factions/the war without bothering to skim the already existing boards (on here and on neo) that address their concerns. :P Lamppost 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_blubo Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 the dailies, I always see these amazing posts of people winning paint brushes from the fruit machine or winning a draik egg from the forgotten shore but then all I usually get from those things is 50np and a techa fruit or nothing of interest seems to be here today :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best thing I've ever gotten from the shore was a Discovered Treasure Chest, and that's only because I can sell them for a pretty decent profit. But what I really want most is a Pirate Paint Brush. Of course, if I ever do have the phenomenal luck to get a Pirate Draik Egg, that thing is going up on the TP or auction block faster than you can say 'Cap'n Threelegs'.

Wildbreeze Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 A bit frustrated right now that Coltzan upped my pet's level to 21, so now I have to pay double the codestones for training. :( Might make a point of visiting Von Roo tonight...

Cassine Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Ditto on codestone inflation. I remember they were really cheap when Key Quest was first released -- I should have bought more then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realize that you can train your pet at the Island Academy (Krawk Island) for a mere Five Dubloon Coin right? They only cost 4,400 NP or so. Unless you are in a hurry with training, this is way cheaper than codestones. Wildbreeze 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaylaTheHedgehog Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I wish the Dubloon-O-Matic worked backwards, so you could exchange a Twenty Dubloon Coin for four Five Dubloon Coins. Wildbreeze and karmacow 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to do this as you can't use the larger denomination coins for much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neomancer Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 If that would happen it would lower the price of dubloons even further. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaylaTheHedgehog Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 ^ I wouldn't complain too much about that. Do the shop keepers give change on Krawk Island. It just strikes me as weird that there's no easy way to break a high domination dubloon. To the editorial! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_microwave Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I have a brand new frustration! I just bought the Grimoire of the First Order, hoping to get the avatar by reading it to the only pet who I want to read books...and the response? "This book is so boring!" She won't read it!

Unbelievable! Change your language to something else. I do that a lot when my bookworm won't read a book. Go to your inventory, scroll down to the very bottom. Right beside where the search bar is (not the search bar below your neopet), there will be a 'select language' button. Switch it to something other than English. Keep trying different languages until they read it. :D Rebecca~, Wildbreeze and karmacow 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate it when I get an item that I think is pretty cool and it says it's rare, but I look up the item and it doen't sell for much. Bleh. I'm not good with pricing things.
