thanks for the hint!

i guess it's just instruments, 'cause i fragged a mix of violins and violin bows and violin strings the first time and it didn't trigger. but it did when i fragged a single instrument by itself :p
[edit] Johannes' bowing technique is so smooth and fast that literal sparks fly from his violin, igniting everything around you! calm down and rosin your bow, you're going to set your own damn self on fire
You Won! You have defeated Johannes 10 times! You earned 581 sP for beating Johannes! Cynde earned 950 EXP Points!
His loot is precious, will aim for 90 more wins in a little bit.
Thank you, I was debating about deleting a Thank heavens that wasn't it.
You're welcome, guys! said she felt like a monster so I hoped going down that route (fragging instruments) would work :P
Thanks everyone for figuring out this challenger. Just got on. Need to BQ and then battle him.

You Won! You have defeated Johannes 25 times! Cynde earned 30 EXP Points!
...What?? Why doesn't he drop anything after 10 wins?? All the other challengers did....
, , Sorry... I don't mean to bother. Was this intentional? The past 3 Friendly Thursday challengers all dropped loot past 10 wins and they had the usual amulet and tome after X amount of wins... Or is Johannes a cheap jerk?
just fyi I don't have anything to do with loot for challengers, that's all and
Did you guys figure it out? It looks like enough people are finding him that I can say something now :D
new opponent
Yeah you just need to frag a violin item from his shop. I bought up a bunch of instruments and books and just got lucky that the violin was one of the first items I fragged.
That is lucky! I'm glad we figured it out because I was about to give up, LOL.
Mmm in spite of not getting loot past 10 wins... still was an amusing and interesting challenger to unlock. I look forwards to learning about his fear.
That is really bizarre that he isn't giving out any loot. I thought the Friendly Thursday challengers were supposed to give us more mod crystals. I hope it is unintentional.
Same here. I mean BUBBLES gave us loot and he was a pretty easy challenger. I've stopped at 25 wins for now and if this was just a minor mistake well... won't have much to do if they fix it. If not... well it's not the end of the world but it still feels weird ... lol. I think I'm just spoiled by the basically free amulets and tome we get from certain challengers after so many wins.
