Battledome equipment

Battledome Equipment refers to a collection of items used for the Battledome. Most of them can be equipped to a Neopet and used in battle. Generally, the better a weapon is, the more expensive. There are rare cases however, like the Bone Sceptre and Scarab Ring, when good items become very cheap because of a large supply or other reasons.

Battledome Equipment Effects

In general, using a piece of Battledome equipment will result in one of the below effects:

Attack The Battledome item deals a specific number and type of offensive icons () to the opponent. The amount of HP damage caused by each icon depends on the strength stat of the attacking Neopet. Example: The Sparkshooter deals 1•Fire  , 1•Light  , and 1•Physical

Defend The Battledome item produces a specific number of defensive icons () that block incoming attacks. Defensive icons can only block damage that matches their type. For example, defensive air icons can block air attacks, but they cannot defend against water attacks. The about of HP damage blocked by each defensive icon depends on the defence stat of the defending Neopet. Example: The Wooden Shield defends 2•Physical Defence

Reflect The item takes incoming attack icons and then reflects them back onto the attacker. The HP damage done by the reflected icons depends on the strength stat of the attacking Neopet. Example: The Dual Battle Mirror reflects 50% of all

Heal The Battledome item restores a Neopet's HP (). The amount of HP restored depends on the item used. With very few exceptions, Neopets are only allowed to equip a single healing item at a time. Example: The Blue Scorchstone heals 30 HP.

Drain The Battledome item drains health from the opponent. Since they are not associated with an icon type, draining attacks are unblockable. Some items additionally use the drained HP to heal the player. Example: The Cursed Elixir drains 20 HP from your opponent and adds it to your own HP.

Freeze The weapon freezes the opponent for one turn. When an opponent is frozen (), they can not attack or defend themselves. With very few exceptions, Neopets are only allowed to equip one freezing item at a time. Example: The Pearly Koi Bubble Net has a 10% chance of .

Steal The weapon temporarily steals a piece of equipment from the opponent. When a stealing item successfully steals an opponent's equipment, it is given to the opponent in place of their stolen gear. This allows the opponent to use the stealing item to take back their stolen equipment if they desire. At the end of the battle, all stealing items and stolen pieces of equipment are returned to their original owners. Stolen items that were broken or consumed during the battle are returned to their original owner undamaged and unused. Example: The Green Sticky Hand has a 60% chance of stealing an item.

Give The Battledome equipment produces other pieces of Battledome equipment when used. Example: The Evil Snowball Wand produces an Evil Snowball when used.

Many pieces of Battledome equipment have a combination of effects. For example, the Tornado Ring can attack, defend, heal, and steal, all at the same time.

Use Limitations

Multiple Use

Multiple use weapons are weapons that can be used over and over in a battle. These are the most common types of weapons and can be almost anything.

Fragile

Fragile weapons can be used the same way as multiple use weapons, but with a risk. Fragile weapons have a chance of breaking each time they are used in the battledome, and after breaking, it can never be used again. This often makes the weapon cheaper than multiple use weapons with the same power, since it has a risk of breaking. Different fragile items have different chances to break.

Semi-Fragile

Semi-fragile weapons are exactly like fragile weapons, except they break only for the remainder of the battle. After the battle is over, the semi-fragile weapon returns to the Neopets equipment page ready for another battle.

Once Per Battle

Once per battle weapons can only be used once per battle. They are often 100% freezing weapons, bomb weapons, or a healing weapon.

Single Use

Single use weapons can be used once in the battledome and then disappear forever. These are most often bombs or elixirs from the Healing Springs.
