    So here is my current list of weapons

    UPDATED: 1/15/09
    1) Ylanas Blaster
    2) Ylanas Blaster
    3) Magical Marbles of Mystery
    4) Ghostkerbomb *NEW*
    5) Honey Potion
    6) Downsize
    7) Sophies Magic Hat
    8) Greater Healing Scroll

    Which should I purchase next?
    Rainbow Clockwork Grundo?
    Sword of Skardsen?

    I'm only doing 1P battledome at the moment, so please take that into consideration.

    Which of those should I get first? Can anyone recommend any other items?

    Try getting the freezer, since you will do a majority of damage during those turns.

    Two bombs sound great if you can carry them. Just go for the most icons, since they won't be able to defend when they're frozen.

    If you're planning on maxing out on your 1p battles (as in battling over and over and over), get a 100% freezer.

    If you want a set that'll get you through DoN, go for Scroll of Freezing. It's 80-100k or so, and it'll break permanently approximately every 5 battles. Meaning for about 800k np, you'll be able to get about 50 freezes out of it.

    That lets you skip a freezer and go straight to your bomb (which should be gbomb).

    Yblaster is a great constant for 1p only battling, you should only ditch it once you can afford SoS.

    If you need any more tips, PM me.

    Also, what species is your pet? Using a kacheek, gelert or elephante can give you a cheap healer. Using a species with its own freezer can also help, if you need the 100% freezer without a chance of breaking.

    Or go the route of a pteri and get 40% air resist.

    What's your battledome pet's species? Stats?

    Anyways, you should get a prickly potion and a h4000 helmet. Sell the hat and get a ghostkerbomb next.

    Don't get a scroll of freezing, they break in one or two uses and are just a waste.

    Prickly potion reflects damage back using the opponent's boost, and it's pretty useful in 1p

    I recommend you getting a MMoM as it will come in handy with your Honey Potion (MMoM also does some icons so it is better than H4K :p)

    If you are only going to do 1 player Slumberberry Potion may be the way to go... does 10 damage each round and may freeze...you can always withdraw and try again until it does :yup:

    To be honest, I really dont like the slumberberry potion as it is way too random :p The water icons are decent, but if you want a proper freeze just stick with the 100% freezers =)

    that takes way too long, with all that withdrawing. i'd rather go for a 100% freezer and not waste time

    edit: new battledome set listed

    Rainbow Clockwork Grundo is such a waste of NPs!

    slight step up from Honey Potion, don't recommend it at all

    ...I'm thinking of creating comprehensive BD weapon guide, should i?

    if you're good, then yes. if you think you're just okay at it, then probably not
