yeah the last time i was on the site they didnt have teirs
Good good. Yes Battle Quests are your friend! A fantastic way to earn some extra experience and test out weapons and challengers before you decide to use them in a battle for wins and loot drops! If you ever find yourself bored of BQs once in a while, do them in increments of 5 or 10 depending on your mood. :D Great way to finish them and not drive yourself crazy. Heh!
Yeah, don't be like me and try to sneak in 30 battles 30 minutes before midnight. Notorious for doing that. Like shooting myself in the foot. With that said, let me go do my BQ. XD

I actually did all my BQs before reset... For the first time in puffs.... I don't even know. xD I've neglected on the challengers for a while, so I just need to grind the easy and medium opponents then we'll see where that brings me to. xD
But that's the best way of doing it! xD
Good luck! Also egg farming is great for helping your tier 3 and under pets get stronger. So if you have some pets that can battle and take down most challengers it's really easy to get your little guys more stats!
I know right! bashful grin

New faces and old foes…
Welcome (back?) friends!
Congrats to everyone on their wins. I finally got around to taking on that chick in the lab coat tonight. I really need to get in gear and finish up a ton of battles…
…and a big thanks to you all for being so wonderful! I had a really great birthday -- due, in no small part, to all of you. huge group hug Battlers are the best! :)
Ah yeah, all my pets are Tier 4 and 5 though... I did that a while ago, most of my higher pets have 5 wins on most of the challengers. xD I just need to get those last 5. :P So if I get any extra eggs, they'll just sit there. ._.
Unless, of course, I get an 11th Pet Slot when I get my first loyalty box. :o
Well I just went ahead and did my dailies, I will do BQs later in the day.
2 boosters from Shinwa. 1 amulet from Quentin. Marksman gained an intel point from jobs.
Not bad, hope BQs will be kind, I'd do them now but my attention span at this hour is like ... dwindling. Have a great night/evening/day, whichever you are, everyone.
It is likely that I have given you weapons advice before. I do know we loaned each other achievement items on several occasions though.
You Won!
You have defeated Deadroot 4 times!
John Petrucci earned 4739 EXP Points!
You earned 14580 sP for beating Deadroot!
Getting a good start was way harder than it should have been (I forfeited/lost tons of times getting that 4th win).

- welcome to our chat. :) We like having new faces around.
As for T9 weapons... I just scoured through my armoury, it's got nothing in T9 except the Maleria's short sword, which is situationally useful at best. My T8s get a lot of use out of the Prodigy staff and the Trident, though those might be big investments for just starting up again. Someone else probably has a better idea of what's good.
- good work with Deadroot! I don't think I've actually beat Deadroot at all, I should go do that.
Ah yes, the achievements would be it. Speaking of.... I only need the Riptide to complete the 9 Legendaries, and I think I have a seller lined up for that already. Words can not explain my excitement. xD
Hello! :) I feel nice and welcomed already. :3
You have defeated Muffin Man 10 times! Now to see if I can defeat Canaak
as far as tier 9 grade weapons go, my recommendations would be: prodigy staff, rapier of error, blessed trident of the banished one, intricate energized helmet, rainbow vortex/shinwas temple shard, phoenix quill, reviver of the lion, and truth serum/soma tablets. that's more or less what my set was back then, and pretty much all of them stay useful in higher tiers.
mind you, not the cheapest assortment of weapons, but i'm not really the guy to talk to for advice on battling on the cheap...
and hi to the new faces! welcome to the best thread on the site 💪
well im going to try to save up for a new set then got to sell the stuff in my shop

Deadroot
Total Battles: 34
Wins: 5 Losses: 29 Ties: 0
It was worth it though. Getting the special loot with a tier 10 is definitely possible.
You should be able to beat Canaak. I have beaten him 10x with tier 5s several times.
I don't even have much of a clue what is cheap and what isn't anymore.

- definitely invest in some of the staples as Satyr suggested, phoenix quill, reviver of the lion, recycle blaster (though you should be able to earn one easily enough by beating recycle beast) Shinwas temple shard, rainbow vortex, and a 100% freezer, you'll probably be able to earn yourself an intricate energized helmet eventually. That plus two tier appropriate attackers is my generic set for everything.
- Nice, congrats! What are you using? I haven't looked into strategy for deadroot at all.
