Lost Fragments Event

[Siniri]

I snagged mine so early this morning, I forgot I had. But I'm at 25 now, too.

Edit: 30/35.

Dang. Only one more day already. Guess I should figure out what I want to get. Pickles, have you updated your spreadsheet at all? Could you share the text of it here? Thanks!

[Pickles]

30/35 here

I haven't updated it since Saturday, no. If I have time this afternoon/evening, I will try to do so. I'm not sure if there's an easy way to put it here. If I can figure that out, I will. Otherwise, I'll send you both a screen shot again elsewhere.

30/35 (Did manage to get the 5 yesterday on time, but did not manage to post. I was not at home much on Sunday)

[Pickles]

35/35. Still holding out on spending prize points, as I'm still not sure what I'll be getting.

[Blue]

35/35. Woot

Also holding out... I might buy a few if reasonably priced just to test them out

[Siniri]

I waited to make sure there were no glitches for the last day. 35/35

Visiting the page today shows this:

Fyora: Well done, all! With your help, we were able to gather up all of the shards of New Faerieland that crumbled and fell to Faerieland. With all of the pieces recovered, Luxinia was able to perform the solidifying spell that should keep New Faerieland floating above us for years to come.
Luxinia: Thank you all so much! I’ll keep this prize shop open to make sure everyone can spend the points they earned. New Faerieland will be thriving in no time. I hope to have it ready for you all to visit someday soon!

I guess that's that. Now, to figure out what to spend my points on...

[Blue]

Well. There you go.

No idea what to use my points on. If I can use the new Bomb with a Ghostkerbomb, then that is an easy choice for 25 points.

[Pickles]

The "Varia is the Bomb" item, as some of you probably guessed, was not intended to be equipped multiple times. We have fixed the issue, so if you still had one equipped multiple times, we have placed your pet's battledome equipment back in the owner's inventory.

I was wondering if that was going to happen. You can only equip one bomb.

[Blue]

Thanks P... I figured you could only equip one Veria because you can only equip one GB, but is it equip one bomb in total inventory, or can it be one of each bomb (1 Veria & 1 GB)?

I guess I can "waste" 25 points to find out. If it does not work, then sell it for ~2.5M... (undercut the current ~3M price by 500k)

[Pickles]

You can only have one bomb total, of any sort. It's been that way for...forever?

That being said, I'm still considering getting a bomb...because it is a slightly different set of icons (more physical guaranteed, and light instead of earth) plus it's a consistent 25 instead of variable between 21 and 30, and who knows...maybe it'll be useful someday?

I wouldn't sell right away, if you do get one - they WILL go up in price over time, especially since it was limit 1 buying.

[Siniri]

I don't have a bomb, so I'll definitely be getting one.

Edit: As I hit "send" on that, it occurred to me that I'd better hope the government AI spies can understand the context of that statement. In Minecraft Neopets -- literally, not figuratively! (Context)

Ugh. AI. Ugh. No. No. No. We are all doooomed.

I might buy the bomb anyway. It looks like a nice prize. Very well priced for what it might be worth.

ETA: Perhaps it is time to spend my points. Any suggestions?

[Pickles]

JellyNeo has a handy prize shop price guide. Here is the one for this event, sorted by the neopoint to prize point ration, from lowest to highest: Lost Fragments

Really depends on what you're looking for.

Weapons-wise, the bomb is good if you don't have a bomb. Since it's a limit-one buy, it'll probably hold its value...unless it get released through daily/weekly prizes at some point, but I guess you could say that's true of any item nowadays. Shield is also decent, but not sure it's the best option to spend your prize points on.

Stamp is event-exclusive (as are most but not all of the wearables and a couple of the books) but not limited to how many you can buy.

I will probably be sitting down and figuring out what I would like to buy here soon. Honestly, I've put it off because I wasn't really sure what I wanted to do with my prize points. I'm torn between books/wearables/p/bs. Now...I feel like I ought to get it done before they shut down this prize shop without warning, too.

[Blue]

Thanks! I will probably grab a bomb and a stamp to start, then think about other things...

Not sure I can equip my battle pet with the bomb, though, since I have a GBomb equipped.

...according to Reddit, I can. Will confirm shortly.

ETA: Confirmed.
