Re: Battleground of the Obelisk [Split 8]

I did a FQR boon, and while I refreshed 5 times, only one of them refreshed to something particularly good. The two days I didn't refresh, I had space faerie quests, so....I can't complain TOO much about this cookie!

I'm kinda ambivalent about the next week. Whether or not I'll have time to battle is debatable, so....eh.

I've gotten really lucky on this cookie after a week of mediocrity. Two Fyoras in a row, woohoo! Whatever I get tomorrow doesn't even matter (though another Fyora would be nice, of course...).

Order has the FQ boon, so I'm leaning towards them. I also won't have a ton of time, but if you don't put in a lot of work, it's less disappointing if you lose. Especially if the winning faction has boons you don't care about.

I like Order for the Carto boon, so I am going to join now, as I am busy tomorrow.

I have also joined Order. Bandwagon ahoy?

Also, just finished my cookie. Last quest was earth, but I got +3 def for 1 NP, which is really the best regular faerie possible, so I'm happy (especially after two Fyoras).

Total: 19405 NP, +18 HP, +14 def, +10 str, +3 movement, +4 level

Current stats:
Lvl : 322
Str : 644
Def : 632
Mov : 130
Hp : 635 / 635

Another cookie could put me at the 650 (x14) strength boost, which I think would completely eliminate my need for the (now very rare) double-turn against the top skirmish bosses. It all depends on how much I train in the next week and a half. Not bad considering the only weapon I've bought is a freezing potion (and maybe downsize? can't remember) during the last plot. It kind of makes me sick to think how many tens of millions of NP I spent on weapons for my old account, and now there are free weapons that are just as good. Ugh.

I joined but I'm honestly not sure if I'll have any time to battle, even if I want to. We'll see, I guess.

ETA: Got a minimal amount of battling done today. Well, more than the bare minimum, but yeah.

I got the bare minimum. Will try to get more later, but at least I can get a boon if we win...

Yes!! Order wins.

I managed just over 200 wins. Most of them were the easier opponents, as I was rounding off my battle scores.


Cartogrification boon for me.

Day 1: LLL - 629 np (229 np Net)
Day 2: RRR - 2,252 np (1,852 np Net)

Total: 2,081nps

~~~

I see we have 2 for Carto and 2 for Quests. Looks like we are competing Blue! :D

Yay! Order!

I also went with the Cartogriphication boon.

Day 1: LRR - 645 NP, (245 NP Net)

Woohoo! I went with the FQ boon again. Especially important to strive for the 650 str boost before plot battling begins in earnest. But waiting to open my cookie for a little bit longer yet!

Went with FQR. Will crack a cookie later tonight...

Quest 1: Light (1489 NP) -> Fire (earned 950 NP from thrift shoppe) 300 NP, +3 str

Total Spent: -650 NP, +3 str
Savings from Cookie: 49,872.33 NP

(Cost of training: 47,733.33/stat or 143,200/3 stats) - assuming it hasn't changed since my penultimate cookie

:lol: I can't believe that I've now earned NP doing quests for my cookie! I'm counting the value of that item that was just sitting in the thrift shoppe because I always check it before doing a fire quest, and I wouldn't have snagged it otherwise. It was worth more than the item I had to nab for the faerie!

Well, this boon has already been worthwhile, but maybe I'll get even luckier as the week goes on!

Yep Daze, bring it on! :P

But after only one day, Siniri is the clear winner this week!

Day 1: LRR - 645 NP, (245 NP Net)
Day 2: LRL - 2,260 NP (1,860 Net)

Total Net: 2,105

Not if one of you gets the Cartog stamp!

Quest 1: Light (1489 NP) -> Fire (earned 950 NP from thrift shoppe) 300 NP, +3 str
Quest 2: Battle 1249 NP, +3 HP, +3 str, +3 def

Total Spent: 599 NP, +6 str, +3 HP, +3 def
Savings from Cookie: 49,872.33 NP

(Cost of training: 47,733.33/stat or 143,200/3 stats) - assuming it hasn't changed since my penultimate cookie

Boom. 650 str boost. I should now be able to beat skirmish bosses in one round no matter what. All these str boosts are forcing me to train level instead of def, but I might be able to squeeze in one def training this evening or tomorrow morning before my next quest (and more if I don't get str tomorrow).

You are off to a very good start Siniri. Making neopoints on a quest is a new one!! *clap*
Congrats on the strength boost. It makes the Skirmish battles so much quicker to be able to beat them in 1 round.
