Thank you! I will keep my fingers crossed for a rerelease for now. (And add my +1 to that thread in favour of the bobbleheads coming back!)
I want to say they were last released about three years ago so they really are overdue D:
Tos (a new T11 - stats below) finally got her 5 wins (just barely and it took 44 battles) against Cozcoatl. She wound up using
4 critical strike tears on the trident and 3 light defense cabochons on the gauntlet. Blasted with Trident to start and saved the Bear Head Bomb to finish the job since otherwise Cozcoatl heals too much once he is into the red for me to keep up with him and still defend.
i would love to hear if/how anyone has managed 5 wins with any T10. So maybe a change to T11 would be more realistic? Of course a high health build and//or more reasonable AP and scrolls might help too. :-)
Level: 804 Health: 2008 / 2008 Strength: 2009 Defense: 2008 Speed: 2011 Intelligence: 804 AP: 50 Tier: 11
got 10 wins with Plakat, who is T10. But he has very high health so I imagine she used a lot of GotF scrolls :P
You're welcome. :)
I should look at selling off some of my spare bobbleheads. I don't know if they're going to get any more valuable than they are now, especially if they get released again. I'm honestly surprised how cheap most of them still are.
I guess I'll give Cozcoatl a try with my new T10. I do enjoy a challenge, but maybe not this one :P
Three years :O Guess I'd better cross my fingers pretty hard. It seems a little strange to me since they're Cash Shop based. Why don't they want to take my money! Those bobbleheads are adorable and the weapons seem so useful.
Also, on another note, thank you so much for your Comprehensive Guides to battle opponents! I practically always have one of your pet profiles open these days while I'm gathering scroll pieces. So helpful, I wouldn't have figured out half of this stuff on my own!
[edit] You got a forum point while making a post! Check out the shop here!
YEY.
- yes, being able to heal or full block for a lot of rounds would really help - especially with Freezing disabled. Good Luck battling Cozcoatl with your new T10. Please let me know how it works out. Tos, Tharg and I will all be cheering for you. :-)
I found the news post: https://subeta.net/news.php?act=comments&newsid=16490 :(
Since you used to get a random bobblehead with a purchase from the Cash Shop, I think they wanted to decrease the amount in circulation. Who knows :P
And you're welcome! No one had been doing them for a while and they were really needed so I'm happy to get them done so everyone can benefit.
It's too bad blessings are disabled, which really hurts those elemental defense crystals. The blessings are their best attribute :(
Just an FYI on the Bobbleheads, the most expensive ones from the 2010 collection were brought back in April 2016 and again in July 2017. I'm not sure about any times before that, but maybe they'll release them again next year or something if people have been asking for it again.
Yikes, somehow I totally missed the 2017 news post, haha. Whoops.
No problem!
I'm not sure how soon they'll bring them back again since it was done two years in a row, but I know the Trident is a pretty desirable weapon so hopefully they will again soon for those who need it. :)
I think two years is a good amount of time to wait, especially since you can only ever get one of each weapon anyway. We're always getting fresh battlers so I hope they aren't forced to wait much longer :P
- don't know about the Trident, but I think it's often much cheaper to buy the Minotaur Knocker than to buy the bobbleheads to get it otherwise. And, for what it's worth, I defintely would get the Trident over the Knocker if only one is possible. I think the single mod slot on the Knocker really limits it's helpfulness - especially against any opponent that can freeze.
Yep! Purge did a great improvement on the Knocker when he buffed it, but that single mod slot is so painful!
I remember using the Knocker a fair bit when my pet was still small and I had no better weapons lol, but yeah you're right. If I had to choose between them I'd go for the Trident first. It also just depends on if you actually want to complete the collection or not too. I tend to be a completionist, so I got all of the bobbleheads when I could just because. But if all you're interested in is the weapon itself then yeah, you might be able to get it for a bit cheaper than the CSC/sP conversion price, whatever that would be.
That's true, I especially see lots of new faces during events like the Gelatin War and such. Having it one per account is a good way of keeping it rare to begin with, and also I feel like most people want to keep their copy since it is a pretty useful weapon for growing pets and late stage pets if you need that wind block.
So... no pirates, and no actual mention of that fact. Nice. Thanks, Subeta.
Ah I see, thanks for the info. EDIT: I'm definitely the type to grab them all just because as well, so that's another reason to hope for a rerelease!
I was tempted to pull the trigger on the RMK while there's still a few sitting in user shops, but it seems like the Trident is a better investment and continues to be useful well into the higher tiers. As a newbie battler, it's definitely hard to know where to spend sp and where to hold back, so I appreciate the advice!
Seems like patience is going to be key. Luckily for me, I've still got a lot of training and battling left to do before the gaps in my armory become an issue (I think!).
It just occurred to me why Cozcoatl is recommended for T10; it's extremely hard. I usually gauge EH as T8-10 and it's a difficult challenger, hence I put it on the higher end.
Obviously there are outliers sometimes, but that's what happens when I don't have a pet at that tier to test with :P
