I paired it with my 9-icon Mystery Fruit Bowl and I actually did pretty well in the wars. I'm excited for the next one, though, because I finally shelled out for a Freezing Potion and a Wand of Reality (to go along with my 11-icon Goo Blaster and my Honey Potion), plus 200 strength and 200 HP. In the horrid CoM war I just had the 85 boosts, and wow, that sucked.
I would like a Sword of Skardsen but I can't bring myself to spend that 11mil right now... I just hope it doesn't retire before I decide to get one. I think some of the other weapons have more of a chance of retiring than it does, though. I could see the Werelupe Claw Necklace going soon. I always wanted one of those, too... it's still not a bad weapon at all.
Do you restock? Or did you get all of those NP from World Challenges (before they suckified them)?
My pet is just past the 85 boost for strength, and near the 55 boost for defence, with almost 100 HP. I'm hoping that's bad enough to get into Rank 1 (if they do it that way this time).

Hey, Iron Lupe Sword is still an excellent weapon for new and low-level pets.

I used one for a while... it worked great.

I only rs a little bit, and I'm awful at it. I won and sold a ton of World Challenge maps before they changed the system to make it harder (I'm still making NP, just more slowly), and I came third in the LDP and sold my Ring of the Lost for 3.7 mil. That's when I bought my f-pot.
If they do the ranks the same way, you should be in rank 1, yes. I'm hoping they've scrapped that idea, though.
And shapu, I know it's still good. That's why I said "Iron Lupe Sword (which is still actually a very good weapon for newbies, or even a decent backup weapon for intermediate fighters)."

I ignored that part because it makes me look less pedantic if I say something that's already been said.

Yeah, and they also just changed entire items series (like the Robotic hand and some other Space Station stuff, I can't remember it all).
They try to keep it interesting, but I think maybe they need to let some good weapons just stay out.
Is there still any way to get a brand new Hypno Helmet (I can't remember what they changed it's name to).

If you're going to search on the Trading Post, it's H4000 Helmet.

Yeah, I've found that out. But they aren't being sold/given out for quests anymore, right?

I think we already have an entire thread about this, but the crux of it is, it's a prize for completing the Space map, which is retired. That's why it's so expensive (and you don't even get it every time you convert the map).

What are the chances like?
Have a couple of complete sets... thinking of trying my luck if the percentage is reasonable...

I don't know, but knowing TNT, probably not good. Though getting it by getting space maps would probably be cheaper than trying to buy one in the first place.

I wouldn't if I were you. Those Space Maps probably go for a half a million apiece, because they are retired. Also, I'm not 100% sure if that's where they come from anyway.
