If anyone could help me, I'd really appreciate it!
The only battles I've really done with my usul have been the low end 1P and war battles. Here are her stats at the moment (they're not great, mostly because I haven't gotten into battling!)
Health : 20 / 15
Strength : GREAT (36)
Defence : GREAT (32)
Move : GREAT (30)
Intelligence : ULTIMATE GENIUS (102)My budget is anywhere from 100-250k. I'd like a solid set that would be good against a wide range of opponents, and preferably with infinite-use items. (I hate stocking up on weaponry, lol).
Again, I'd be really greatful if someone could help me out. I've been on Neopets for almost 4 years now, but have always been just a restocker/gamer.
The never ending question - to train or buy weapons, as both can get expensive.
In your case, I would definitely train more. 15hp will not get you far. I don't know what level your usul is, but train as much in hp as you can. Also train to at least 55 boost in strength and defense. That'll help whatever weapons you get do a little bit more.
As to weapons, well, I like the good old 6 iconers as a starter set. For the most part, they're not really expensive (unless there's a war) and they are multi-use. I don't like snowballs and muffins, etc. - I just don't like one use items.
So, lost desert dagger (I did well using 2 of these), snowball club (fragile, can break - but just for the battle - that's your freezer), snowball slingshot (a bit expensive but worth it), scarab ring - does attack and some defense (again, training helps!), illusens earth potion as your "bomb" - one use per battle, leaf shield, scarab slingshot, immense rubber axe of doom, slime potion (your healer - heals 10 hp) or lesser healing scroll or greater healing scroll of you're training actively (will heal 50) - but the healing scrolls can break permanently, fyi. So far, mine has not broken. Or green scorchstone as your healer. Problem to me with scorchstones is if you're training, you can quickly outgrow them and they do get expensive. Purple or green sticky hand - purple's fine unless they downgrade it (was an advent prize), if they do, save and get green.
Cannot use sticky hand in war, but they can be very useful in one player battles - like the black pteri, it's invaluable.
I'm guessing you know you can have one healer, one freezer equipped, and a total of 8 items equipped to your pet.
Abilities - burrow, sink, drain life, regeneration are all good. fiery gaze and diamond dust can also help when used with your freezer, but they've changed those 2 abilities to use 39% of your power no matter what level you use them on (weak, medium, high), so I don't really know how much good they are anymore.
This is all I know from my limited battling and asking ALOT of questions.
