Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 8]

[Pickles]

I've done at least some battling. Probably won't have time for more, but at least I got some in.

[Blue]

Awakened win!

Boons:
Equip ALL THE THINGS
Bank Bribery
LOL AVIES
GRRRAAAAHHHHHH!
Book Smarts

Bank Bribery for me

[Siniri]

*sigh* Well, bank boon is worth about 1.5-2x what the faerie caverns boon would be, so at least that's something... (About 15-16k for me.)

[Siniri]

Oops. The week's gotten away from me. I have to join now or I probably won't get to, so I'm going with our seeming favorite: Sway. Bandwagon ahoy?

[Blue]

Sway away! Ahoy!

[Pickles]

Yeah definitely didn't sign up. Probably okay because I'm sick and hardly managing regular stuff.

[Daze]

Feel better soon Pickles!

In-between doctors/specialist appointments for my back (today I got a cortisone injection in the hip bursae to reduce swelling and hopefully release the pinched nerve) and looking after my granddaughter twice this week, I barely had to time to scratch!!
But, I did sign up for Sway. It was a quick sign-up and then off line for the day.

Friday lunch, and now have some time to myself and over the next few days.
I have put in a quick 50 against a lower opponent to even up scores. I should be able to get at least 50 a day for the rest of the battle against the leaders.

[Siniri]

I managed 18 battles against the Seekers boss for my prize-battles yesterday. Will fight Thieves today, and try to get 50 total against each.

[Blue]

I am at 14 against Seekers so far and will se what I can do later today against them as time permits. I generall do not battle against the Thieves. We're a sneaky bunch

[Daze]

Sway win!! Yay!

Going with Black Market boon. There is a certain background I would love to get for cheap.

[Siniri]

Woohoo! I went with the FQ boon again. Waiting until later in the day to crack open my cookie, because I can't always get on Neopets first thing in the morning.

[Blue]

Yay! I went with the stock boon this time. Time to bolster my portfolio.

[Siniri]

Bonus quest I didn't realize I'd been given! Woohoo!

0) Gray (no refresh), 590 NP, +3 agility (guess I should have refreshed)
1) Air, 300 NP --> air, 995 NP, +3 agility
2) Dark (no refresh), 1000 NP, +3 HP
3) Earth, 5 NP --> dark, 1000 NP, +3 HP
4) Fire (no refresh), 400 NP, +3 strength
5) Fire (no refresh), 475 NP, +3 strength (same item as yesterday - pretty significant inflation for one day! And I did check every single available SW letter group today, so that was the cheapest available. Still less than 10% of the price in the clothing shop, though!)
6) Earth, 3 NP --> earth, 1 NP, +3 strength (wow, such incredible savings there! So glad I refreshed! It reminds me of yesterday at the grocery store, when cool whip rang up on sale a whole penny off (marked down from 89 cents)! )
7) Dark (no refresh), 750 NP, +3 HP
8. Air, 9 NP, +3 agility (*grumblecakes* That's my 2nd air faerie quest from the cookie, and I have yet to see any of the better faeries)
9) Light, 1100 NP, +2 level
10) Earth, 3 NP, +3 strength

Total: 6323 NP, +9 movement, +9 HP, +12 strength, +2 level

Yep. Three air faeries for my first three. *sigh* But the benefit of a single good refresh is worth a lot now that I'm at two red codestones.

Net effect of Refresh: 46,075 NP

(Cost of training: 47,733.33/stat or 143,200/3 stats)

I refreshed 3/8 quests, and I had 1 bad effect, 1 good one, and one neutral one - but the good one was worth so much more than the bad one, the boon ended up working out better than any of the others would have.

And I forgot to go back in the SW before accepting the quest, so I'm SW-banned. *Quadruple sigh* Any help, please?

Seek and ye shall find... In the "Proper Location"

I'm quite satisfied with my pick. Plus, cookies are great for training! So far, I've only had two wasted days. I'd love to get one of the special faeries before the cookie expires (*cough* Fyora, are you listening? *cough*).
