Set advice for a lab rat

Featured Replies

My pet's current stats are:

 

HP: 333

Str: 151

Def: 44

Mov: 34

 

My current set is (it is really a cheap set, so I'm sure I need to upgrade):

 

Golden Compass

Rainbow Scroll

Leaf Shield

Greater Healing Scroll

Downsize

 

 

I have around 4 mil in my bank account, but I'd really prefer not to spend it all. Plus all weapons are inflated because of the war. I think the least I should do is upgrade my constants/dual duties. I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but I was thinking of just getting two constants instead of having any dual duties to take advantage of my strength boost... since my def boost isn't that great. I'm hoping my high HP will cover for me. Any thoughts?

Agreed. Don't bother with dual duties or shields since they won't help you much. You have a lot of options for upgrading your constants. Here are several to consider, roughly in order from smallest to greatest upgrade:

You could also look into a freeze/bomb strategy, which is really good for lab rats. If you want a freezer, consider Randomly Firing Freeze Ray or a faerie ability like Lens Flare. If you want a bomb, your best option is probably one-use 15-icon bombs like Brain Muffin or Golden Muffin. You could also do the more-affordable 13-icon Jar of Meepit Eyes, unless you choose a constant that does at least 13 icons, in which case don't waste your NP on a 13-icon bomb.

 

Also, if you want a healer, the most popular one is Greater Healing Scroll, but consequently it is pretty inflated right now. Since you have a lab rat, I recommend you get the Velms Healing Potion. It's not as good as GHS for you right now, but if you plan to keep zapping, it will become better. Plus, it is better for your than Lesser Healing Scroll, the most recommended alternative to GHS. Plus, it's pretty cheap, compared to the others!

Do you think the Scroll of Knowledge would be good? I know it gives 11 icons, but the variety is a bit much I think. Or would Scuzzys Comb or Ramtors Spellbook be better?

 

I just bought the Wand of Reality btw. Which is why I'm hesitant to get Ylanas Blaster or Altador Cup Throwing Star, both around 1.4mil now....
