I've been meaning to ask this for a while. My pet Hoshiwari is T8, close to 9. Here are his stats: Level: 506 Health: 1244 / 1251 Strength: 1375 Defense: 1251 Speed: 1229 Intelligence: 1058

And these are his weapons: Icy Freezing Rod of Doom Item Hunters Bomb Blunderbuss Ice King Clawed Gloves Item Defenders Shield Sparkling Quill Rainbow Quill Phoenix Quill

And scrolls: Quake Cobalt Eternal Thunderous Roar Inferno Inferno Inferno Inferno

There's definitely some room for improvement. Perhaps some of you battle veterans can give me a tip?

Also, I am currently saving up for Pandemonium and Ignitious. Is it worth it, or should I focus on something else?

you shouldn't save for pandemonium/ignitious.

you may want to pick up a because blasters can be useful, is nice for tier 8 because it scales to your tier and will get better in tier 9. you may wanna replace your icy freezing wand with which is a 100% freezer. you don't really need the shield, the rainbow quill probably doesn't help much, and I doubt the sparkling quill helps much either. may be worth picking up too.

quake/thunderous roar can probably be replaced by a healer. is good, is better, and is the cheap option I guess inferno scrolls are okay for bombs. are good bombs because they provide some attack and defense, but they also have a freeze chance. provides some good defense. other scrolls you will earn from battling in time.

Thank you for your advice!

I keep the rainbow and sparkling quills for last resort healers, which also do a bit of extra damage. The shield has saved me in battles a lot, too. But I'll see what I can do.

I read the other T8 threads, and was in fact considering getting the scientist specs.

As for scrolls, Inferno were the cheapest (because I crafted them myself) for the most damage, but I needed Thunderous Roar fr opponents that block fire and magma. I might replace quake with soothing current, though, so thanks :) I might try crafting some other scrolls if the rare ingredients have deflated.
