I'm dealing anything from 15 to 29 points to the third set of stones (get confused, they all look the same to me lol) so feel quite inferior to most of you guys here! :)

I don't suppose there is any chance of getting my pet trained up enough to do serious damage in a later section of this plot though :(

She's level 25, health 37, strength 39, and defence 28. I have most basic abilities but have been hoarding bottled faeries in my SDB even til now lol.

As an aside - I won a bottled dark faerie at tombola just now, wonder if that's because we're 'at war' currently!

my pets are weak i mean only one is over 30 hp and he's only a level 1 pet, but I beat all three stones without blinking. lol these ones are way easy. I am gonna take my time and level them all up since my highest pet is only level 7. :P I definately need to buy more bottled fearies for more abillities tho. since I dun have codestones for training.

I really like Garmfry's Battledome guide:

With abilities, the two I highly recommend:

Burrow - Earth Faerie ability #4 requiring pet level +10
Sink - Dark Faerie ability #8 requiring pet level +30

The Battledome lags something terrible for me. I battled Balthazar to get full HPs and it took several minutes to load the page...
So far I can deal around 50 damages, but I could start thinking about improving my battle pet :P smashing stones for a hundred times can be kinda boring.

Do we have any idea what the dominant stratagy for this is?

After having beaten all the opponants a few times (just in case) is it better to concentrate on the most difficult ones, or do an equal number of kills for each mob?

I'm planning on fighting the strongest opponent until my pet can no longer beat it, then I'll start on theweaker ones if I have time this wave.

That's my general plan. Although I make sure I fight one of each category, I might swap over once I can't kill them with one hit any more.

I'm dealing 100-150 damage at the moment, getting rather boring.. at least it got me the battle faerie avvie though ;)

I think they released weak opponents so that people with weak pets can fight them.

Personally I am just fighting each opponent in turn, so far I have fought 10 battles with each. I'm going to keep going until I either get too bored or they get too hard. I assume you will get more points for fighting the harder opponents though.

I'd say that as long as each kill is as easy as the next, that's the best strategy, yes.

The lag is horrible! I hope tnt will fix that....

The lag is very moderate for a war. I wouldn't expect them to tweak any further, but load times will decrease as people get bored and stop fighting.

My simple strategy is to not lose any health... you get more of the points for battledome score (maximum per battle is 100 + difficulty). I like maximizing that number on my pet's lookup.

Generally I'm doing:
Ring of the Lost + Dusty Magic Broom + Heal
or
Ring of the Lost + Downsize! + Heal

With 200 str, that'll get me through about 50 battles with the third group. Then it's on to using more powerful stuff :) (Honey Potion and Goo Blaster)

I haven't had much time to do this, and really shouldn't spend much time doing this (college stuff... y'know?)

I was just about to win and the lag caused me to get a page not found message. Grrrrrr....I didn't get credit for the win but it sure took the item I used. It wasn't expensive but still. I'd like credit for the win! LMBO!

I don't usually play in the Battledome because I stink at it!

**EDIT: IT DID IT TO ME AGAIN! AUUUUUUGHHHH!!
