Remember to come look for advice for hydra

Another water blocking option is the Omen KC. It will transform into a replica of SoSS or WoK. They aren't as good as the originals, but I used the OKC to get me through until I reached T12. And the replicas have a heal, which most other water blockers available to you don't. That said, is right -- there aren't any really good options for your tier.

SoSS/WoK... Once they got intro'd into the antique shop the prices quadrupled -- like most everything that gets put in there. I think staff are afraid of stepping on toes if they price things reasonably, so they price things obscenely. NBD right? If you can save up 2 bil, it ain't no thang to save 4... ;)

Yes -- and don't get me started on the lack of potions/pylonics... XP

Sent would have set up a trade but way too many things in inventory...gl and hope MRS helps!

P-staff is great, love that curse

I would use ALL EXP for HP it goes up to 4500 EXP for HP at T13. I can't remember what HP goes for at T11/T12.

I would love it if potions and pylonics dropped in BQ loot or Battle Shop. While we're at it, tweak Mage's percentage of amulets to tomes.

Everyone have a great Wednesday!!!!

Strength: 10000

Yay milestones. Decided to do some minor boosting with the battle shop potions today. Probably gonna try to hit 10k hp too but I bet I'll get bored before I get there lol

We be strength buddies. 10k I'm not going to go higher than that.

Once we hit 35k, we can't go higher than that? RE from Oracle? Or Job Agency? Not quite sure how it works... since I just used a leech to take away 2 stats, I usually try to hover at 34,998.
All we can work on is Intel...

Aww, it's the day of even numbers, I just got Kentish to 5000 hp ^^

I just remembered I've probably suggested adding pylonics to BQ prize pool before (and increasing the likelihood of dark potions too). So that worked splendidly. Anywho, the lack of Dark Earth Potions might be a bug and worth reporting. Hmmm.

Nice. I am definitely gonna go higher on strength though. I like my speed and defense where they are, so I'm thinking like... 12k hp 11k strength 6k defense 6k speed

Might even leech speed and go 12/12/6/5

Thank you so much for the tips. I never know the OKC has such a nice feature :D Still the price tag is a little bit steep, but I'll definitely list it as an option when I borrow a water-blocker in the lending board.

I know the Rs war items got more expensive when they were transferred to the Antique Shop; I'm just wondering if there's been a recent increase in the prices for WoK and SoSS. I remember them being around 2 bil mark (or maybe closer to 3 bil) not too long ago, perhaps last year? Or did I remember it wrong all along? When I looked them up today I saw the price listed as 3.75 bil, which caught me by surprise. I don't earn as much sP as I used to so despite wanting them very much I'm afraid I'll have to lie to myself that I don't care about them :P

I'd get your other stats to like 4k or 4.5k before working on hp again in t13, exp costs triple yes there is still a benefit of increasing your str/def/speed

nah they've always been like 3.75b or whatever

nah I think all sources of stats give you a "oh no your pet has reached the cap" error message. I know scratchcards and exp do you can only gain int and level I don't see any reason staying below the cap unless they give us back int for exp again - in which case I'd like to see exp at the cap come back :x

Level: 2805 Health: 9411 / 10089 Strength: 10020 Defense: 6172 Speed: 6015 Intelligence: 2980

Omg. 475 limitless endurance potions. That took...so freaking long. Still, feels good to gain some stats after letting him rot for so long.

Also I realize how...not cost effective that was. I think that comes out to like...400 million sp worth of potions oops. Not like I had anything else to spend 400 impossible tokens on. And I still have 300 left. [edit] And I gained one whole rank lol

You have defeated Ice King 50 times!

I started out as a casual battler then sure enough - got addicted. Last year I started at ~12K tier 10 or 11 and managed to gain almost 18K pts to where I'm at now - right at 30K stats, tier 13. It's so much more gratifying to be able to beat some of these harder challengers.

Recently I won a Baal and converted it to the Cronus Blade which helps and managed to get into the top 100 pets, which was a goal from pretty much the beginning. The last two years I've tried really hard to snag a ME but fell just short despite hours of constant battling. I feel now there is a much better chance but of course will be difficult. You guys and gals have provided me with plenty of initiative to progress.

To those who have just begun to battle I'd say - hang in there, it's not impossible to get a good battle pet (or two) it just takes time and effort. And oh yeah, lots of sP. Find out how to make pts that best fits your style and stick with it. Mine is quests and restocking, a few games here and there and always grabbing scratchcards and throwing them in the shop. There's many other ways so there's lots of options.

I'm looking forward to the rest of the year!

I'm so sorry. My profile comments are all the way at the bottom somewhere because I keep getting dance and forum notifications x.x; Yeah that's fine! When I get home tonight I will throw it in a trade for you.

Health costs 1200 exp at T12 :D It does increase by double the amount at T13. What does your final build look like? I would start to distribute your exp based on what you want your final build stats to look like. You will get more stats per exp if you invest it in anything other than health, but health boosters can be more expensive and usually people go for high health builds. For my final build, I want 12k health and 10k strength so I pump experience into both strength and health. I also don't want speed and and defense to fall too far behind, so I have set target values where I want to be at before I hit T13. Once I hit those targets for health and strength, then I will use the experience on defense and speed.

Good luck!

I have yet to get any dark earth potions from battle quests.

Meh I prefer the curse on pbow but pbow doesn't scale with your pet =P

I want to do a high strength build, but I am looking more like 12k health/10k strength/7.5k speed/7.5k defense

Also WOW nice boost Archer :D

Thank you. I'll definitely need it.

Okay I see where I got that number. It's from Subetalodge XD. Thanks for the confirmation.

Congratulations on making the top 100 pets and your Cronus Blade :D I hope your post inspires the newer battlers to keep up their hard work. The rewards may take time, but they are worth it.

Congrats on the boost! Nearly 500 boosters at once is intense 😛

The costs at T13 are actually even worse than double. Strength (3,750 EXP) Defense (3,750 EXP) Health (4,500 EXP) Speed (3,750 EXP) Buy Level (3,000 EXP)

I get like 6 strength points a day from bqs. OTL

Anyway, I just don't think speed is that useful. Crits suck, yes, but I don't think it's worth sacrificing that much of a more useful stat just to avoid a random bit of extra damage sometimes. Besides, there aren't even that many opponents that have over ~5k speed.

I have read through your comments which were greatly appreciated. I' ve decided to bump strength and defence for a whiile. Will treat myself to a few tomes for random bumpings lol. I cant believe the EXP cost at Tier 13 OMG I hope they do a reset!!!

- no problem, I just spent a few hours this morning clearing out eight days worth of dancing events that were doing the same to me! Also wondering where I/if I can borrow some Perilous Whirlpool scrolls.

- wondering whether I can borrow your Soma Tablets (and if possible your Reviver of the Lion) for an attempt on the Seven-Headed Hyrdra sometime between now and when it leaves Sunday evening. Would be happy to have them for a few hours at a time that wouldn't interfere with your own battling.

- thank you for the loan!

- thank you for your help as well!

- guess it may be my turn to take a try at that Seven-Headed Hyrda since managed two wins against it with a T8 (so amazing)! Looking to borrow a few things. I will make sure to keep you posted on what happens in case you want to make another attempt before they go away Sunday night.

and any battler willing to help - in response to 's challenge (and remarkable two wins with Oranos), I would like to make an attempt to get (at least) five wins on the seven-headed hydra with Tos, my beginning T9 main battle pet. Since I don't have most of the expensive useful weaponry yet, I am looking to borrow a bunch of things, even if only for several hours. I have not done much borrowing before, so am not sure how reasonable my requests are, but as said to someone recently in this thread, " No harm in asking. Right?" Also looking for any advice/suggestions. - I know you won five times with your T9 (I am in awe, so impressive!).

Hoping to borrow Replica Minotaur Knocker Bludgeon of Mass Destruction and possibly Oracles Short Sword

Have a Deluxe Death Shard, a Phoenix Quill and an Aftershocks Scroll. Have borrowed Soma Tablets and a Reviver of the Lion.

Okay everybody, wish me luck, I'm going to need it! :-)

I'm glad to lend you the RotL and Soma. I'll need it back for BQs every day, though. If you can throw them back my way around this time every night it would be great :D Other than that you can keep them for the rest of the day.

I can lend you my PWs. 3 of them should not be a problem. I also have the Bludgeon. Not using it much so you can keep it until you've got your wins.

Omg you guys I have a real drinking problem at work - I keep spilling coffee all over me and my stuff D:

Ugh yeah I knew it was something gross. My plan is to get my second pet to T10 before my main hits T13 so my second pet can do 90% of BQs if not more. My main will just get boosters at that point.

I wasn't even thinking about crit hits from opponents, that's what all the health is for lol. I was thinking if I had high strength and high speed I can do even more damage through critical hits. I think the highest speed an opponent has do far is 7500? That's where that number came from. Maybe I would go to 7600 or say screw it and leave that for my fan pet that will have ridiculous speed and strength and my main could have 6k speed.

The whirlpools I think are cheap to make. I can lend you my bludgeon. Also if you don't want the prodigy staff to keep and just want it for the challenger, I can lend you my spare instead of selling it :D I can lend you my rift staff and malerias short sword (blocks earth) too if you like. Oranos isn't T9 yet so he's not using that stuff.

Yeah it sucks! As soon as I hit T12, I started saving ALL my boosters for T13. I'm planing to be at 8k health/6k strength/4K defense/4K speed when I hit T13 so any of the exp I get will go towards everything except health unless I'm not getting enough from boosters.
