Hello everyone, I've recently gotten back into neopets and I was wondering if my new set is decent for one-player battling, and what I should add to it. The max neopoints I can spend is only about 5m right now, I am saving the rest for training. Anyways here's my set:
Ylanas Blaster x2
Leaf Shield
Greater Healing Scroll
Honey Potion
Downsize
Essence of Esophagor
Scarab Ring
The things in bold are the only items I really use.
since you're still on can you post the stats of your pet and tell if you play 1p or 2p?
After you give this information I will edit my post to help you out as best as I can
I'd say the 2
Ylanas Blaster and the
Leaf Shield are all you really need for one-player (I'm a minimalist). But it's about time for you to step over the line into mid-level battling, that's going to take a
Freezing Potion (or some other 100% freezer) or possibly an upgrade to one of those Yblasters like an
Ultra Bubble Gun or
Werelupe Claw Necklace.
What do your pet's stats look like at the moment?
As said in the first post, I am a one-player battler. My current battling pets stats are pretty low since I just started training. Here they are :
Lvl : 13
Str : 25
Def : 18
Mov : 13
Hp : 15 / 15
Okay first of probably the best thing you can do with your money right now is train. Your stats can become a lot with the budget you’re working with. Go for goals such as 35 STR and 35 DEF boost. And then training your hp to 50.
Weapons:
Weapons you should keep:
Ylanas Blaster x2- This is something you should definitely keep, as icons don’t matter in 1p, for 12.6 icons this is a great weapon, and having two just doubles the fun.
Honey Potion- I know it only does about 1 icon more than Ylanas Blaster, but that is ONE whole icon, and it can be up to 3 icons extra. Some debate if this weapon is really worth it at its price for just 1 icon more than y-blaster, but I believe it is. When you upgrade your set to Ultra Bubble Gun or Werelupe Claw Necklace, then this will definitely will have no use
Downsize!-this weapon should be in all beginner’s sets, it’s a great weapon, takes aways 50% of your opponents attack for just 6k, this is great
Weapons you need to remove:
Greater Healing Scroll
Leaf Shield
Essence of Esophagor
Scarab Ring
Reason why you should remove these weapons are explained next:
Weapon Replacemts:
Greater Healing Scroll Blue Scorchstone-This weapon heals 30 hp, but it overheals which will be helpful when you battle, in some cases it might give you a free turn, when you’re 60hp or above, go back to Greater Healing Scroll
Leaf Shield I don’t know if pure defensive shields are useful in 1p, but if you want one try upgrading to Sophies Magic Hat. It blocks more common icons in my opinion, that you will see in 1p
Essence of Esophagor + Scarab Ring= Just get rid of these weapons, if you don’t use them, there’s no point replace with something that is more helpful
Weapons you should add:
Muffins- now any 15 icon muffin would do, such as Shooting Star Muffin, fire Muffin, Icey Muffin, etc. You might just want to use these in DoN, but if you have the need to use one every battle, it will cost you
Thick Smoke Bomb- this weapon is a single use thyoras tear. Great weapon, blocks all opponents attack for 1 move. Now again I believe this should only be used in DoN battles.
Final Set:
Ylanas Blaster x2
Sophies Magic Hat
Honey Potion
Downsize!
Blue Scorchstone
Muffin
Thick Smoke Bomb
Now you do seem to have more nps, for the pet you have so please TRAIN.
But if you want to save up, you could buy the suggeseted stoicjohn recommended. If that is the pathyway you wish to take, you might need another 20 mil.
EDIT: Hot_Dog, brought up a good point, Prickly Potions. With your low STR boost this weapon will do amazing in your set. Especially when going against high boost opponents. This could replace TSB and the muffin, in some battles. or you can replace honey potion with muffin.
Essence of Esophagor......it's too weak!sell it!
Ylanas Blaster is a very nice weapon.keep it.
Greater Healing Scroll also a very nice weapon.But will you do not have 50HP+,use a Blue Scorchstone now.
Honey Potion is good.But you also can use Muffin.Muffin just Single Use but stronger than Honey Potion.
Downsize can Defence 50% attack!Its'strong!
Scarab Ring is weak.Let's go to buy a Prickly Potion .
You also want to buy a freezer,let's buy a black Frost Cannon.
also,you MUSt go to buy a Sophies Magic Hat
Like Meuka said, you need to TRAIN. A lot. But don't bother training defence for 1 player. It can come in handy, but the np needed for this is better spent improving your strength and hp.
Buy the secret lab ray, if you don't mind your pets species changing. Don't feel compelled to use it
every day, if your level is getting a bit low.
You need these weapons:
Prickly potions are a must at your level. However, only use these against
high strength opponents. Ask if you aren't sure how they work.
Like the other guys said,
Ylanas Blasters are good, but only use these against
low strength opponents. Otherwise, use your prickly potions.
Winged Scarab is a nice blocker, as physical icons don't have a 50% reflector. Its cheap price makes it very worth it.
You need a freezer.
Snowglobe staff or
Black frost cannon are your options.
Final set:
Prickly potions x2
Ylanas Blaster x2
Blue Scorchstone (
Greater Healing Scroll when your hp is 60+)
Downsize!
Snowglobe staff or
Black frost cannon
The last slot varies by opponent:
Winged Scarab,
Muffins,
Thick Smoke Bomb, or
Purple sticky hand, or a 50% reflector.
You might want to get a
honey potion if you have a little np left over, but really, it's not neccesary.
