War? very new Battler confused ...

[everconfused]

Help? I have NO clue what I'm doing, but would like to try the BD, especially get to participate even a little in the new war looming on the horizon.

Here's my pet's stats right now:

Species : Jetsam
Colour : Skunk
Gender : Male
Age : 38 days
Level : 13

Health : 21 / 21
Mood : delighted!
Hunger : very full
Strength : titanic
Defence : very heavy
Move : super fast
Intelligence : average

Move is all from the Shrine

Equipped with:
jetsam fin of terror, jetsam chestplate, jetsam helmet, mud mixture x2, sticky snowball (they're getting expensive!, so are mud snowballs)

Abilites:
night vision, tough skin, magic torch, magic pebbles

I'm training as fast as I can, but I am limited in np, those codestones get expensive! Also, I'm thinking abilities - should I just go with dark faerie?

What other weapons should I have so he doesn't get totally crushed immediately on our first foray to the BD? That's not millions and I'm interested in more than one use (snowball) weapons.

Thanks
