I have only gotten shards lately. I think in the past week (when I have done quests that is) I have only gotten shards. The Mage has not been liking me that is for sure.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if restockers complained now too that the tome prices are too low. yes still bitter about them complaining about the price of amulets

Oh my gosh I am 5 stats away from Tier 10 but out of exp and the mage was a jerk headdesks oh well. Tomorrow's goal then!

- ughhh I hope not. I like boosting, but it's rapidly moving outside the realms of my price range if the mage has been hit. I am equally still bitter, so I completely understand ;)

Seems normal to me. You need samples of 100+ to really get a good feel for the ratio. Turning in small numbers will just make it seem off, even if it statistically is the same.

- ahh okay thanks for that. It just seemed odd as I had consistently been getting 4-6 for the past couple of weeks, so it seemed a sudden decline. Obviously just bad luck then! Thank you for clearing that up ^_^

@ Virus

BRING ON THE DANCING LOBSTERS Y'ALL.

GOT A TON OF BADASSES IN HERE.

Yo, congrats on T10~ ;)

When do people stop using the trainer and start using only boosters? Is there ever a time?

You stop autotraining when it's not worth the cost. Regular training doesn't need to stop. It's cheaper than boosters. ;]

Thanks~ I just wasn't sure if training ever stopped being worth it. I mean, once you get to higher levels and it takes so long and costs so much idkidk

I know. Everything costs a lot when you're higher up. I was horrified when I was new at how much people with big pets spent, but you get used to it. Just like you get used to spending a billion for a weapon.

Eek. I know, I haven't gotten there quite yet, but I know. My biggest weapon was a Swashbuckle (Which I can't use quiiiiite yet) at 100m. I spent 40m on a weapon, and one or two got 20m spent. I'm building my wealth back up (At about 90m right now so broke~~~~)

Also this just happened!!

Unlocked Battle Royale! Finish off opponents in battle quests. 4500/5000

YES! You've managed to find all the pieces to my bracelet! To thank you for this, I am giving you one of my very special items!

[item2=Essence of Shinwa]

One hundred amulets. Little trip to Shadowglen. Fourteen tomes. 29 level(s) 27 strength 29 defence 31 intelligence 29 health points 28 speed points

I know this isn't the motivational training board, but I kind of want to talk about Pacifist's stat gains in the past month? I worked hard, making sure I did everything I could to earn her stats this month. I did Shinwa every day, battle quests every day and Quentin every day, no matter how tired I was because I wanted her stats up for "free" to see how much I could get in the month. I did all of the training I could, minus generally, one a day when I was sleeping because I didn't want to spend my CSC on training no matter how much I love her.

In total - Shinwa boosting, training, oracle, BQs, amulets - she gained 651 stats this month.

idkidk I love her and I'm proud of her.

Only if you're training health, boosters have been so low for the past few months that the cost is the same or more for the other stats.

To me you don't stop using the training center (unless you're locked out), but instead of becoming your main source of stats like it his for the first few tiers, it becomes your one-in-a-hundred stat.

IMO once your level is pretty high like 2000-2500, you should be locked out of the training center because each training session takes a whole day, and enter another training facility where you'd pay with battle tokens and training would take way less time. That way you actually have to battle and grind tokens to be able to keep training.

Thanks everyone! Still a bit shocked to be honest but heh I'll be fine!

Gotta do BQs in a bit and today will be the day after n a long time that pet 2 gets nearly all the quests! He cannot take on Prodigy, Crawbeast, or Chase yet but that is fine. All in due time!

Damn double post!

omg, yes this right here!! That will actually make battle tokens worth something and make me want to grind for them.

Or, y'know, they could give higher EXP payouts for 10+ wins...

I'm pretty sure def/spd was always cheaper to boost than train? Could be wrong there.

Actually that's not a bad idea at all. As long as it's not a secret dojo placed under a volcano.

Well Lhyven got 29/30 quests today, we had to skip chase twice but GE took over 4/5 quests... annoying but it's ok it's a challenger pet 2 can handle so I'm fine with the visits. Prodigy showed up last so hey Dameon got some use. Gonna hoard both pet's EXP gains right now.

For Dameon I'm hoarding so I can get his health up. For Lhyven I'm just hoarding cause with him I want to hit tier 12 but I can take my time. [edit] Thank You for bringing me back my item! To thank you, here is a reward. Reward:

15 Point Wizard Token AND Your pet Lhyven gains 4 Strength! AND 2,146sP!

YAY His first Oracle quest in quite some time too! ^___^;

Belated congrats on reaching T8!!!

Congrats on your Battle Royale achievement!!!

Oracle loves you!

I had five red rreign scales to use... before they deflate stats:
