Faerie Quest Event 2020

[Pickles]

Day 3
Bonus: Usuki Pretty Pearls Set
Quest: Soup, had the item, str+2 lvl+2

Total stats:
Battle Pet: HP+2, lvl+7, mov+2, str+2

Every time I click the "accept quest" button I hold my breath.

[Siniri]

Um, Blue, you know you can't sell PB clothes, right? But they'll stay in your closet for your pets to use (assuming you have one of the correct species).

I finished going through my SDB. I only have a few thousand NP worth of items. I know I used to have a lot of them, but I donated just about everything I had to Trudy last year. I thought I'd been going to the healing springs a lot, but I don't have nearly as many healing potions as I should...

Checks. 1144 sticky snowballs. Okay, that's over 3/day. Not terrible. Not great, but not terrible...

Bonus: Fire Faerie Sword
Quest: Fire Faerie, Magical Tea Kettle, I did not find anything. Please try again and I will search elsewhere! *same* *same* 445,555 NP...

Well, fudgsicles. Anyone have one in their SDB? Willing to find one for me in the Meridell Potion Shop? Or on the SSW for less than... 50k?

JN's list is obviously quite incomplete. If I have anything you guys need, I'll send it to you for the pre-inflation price (or for free, if its pre-inflation price was relatively cheap).

[Pickles]

I checked - don't have one. The 445,555 is the lowest on the SSW right now. The rest are nearly twice it if not more.

The JN list is definitely complete. None of the items it's requested of me are on it. I'm hoping by Monday, they remove the ridiculous items from the lists or replace them with other items.


ETA: Some people have made some observations about some of the expensive items:

I know a lot of the items are expensive, but the Flaming Blooble Potion, one of the ones that are heavily inflated, can be gotten by beating Tekkitu the Witch Doctor in a hard battledome fight.

Not sure if that helps any, but figure that's easier then spending 800k on it.

Sroom Fruit Potion should be wishable through the Wishing Well, too.

Some of the common prizes in the arena that Tekkitu is in also have quest items.

Tangella Tonic
Straning Skeem Potion
Jittery Jipple Pear Potion

Not sure how inflated these are though.

Plumbeard on Hard - Golden Compass (Light Farie)

Items that are currently going for a lot and can be wished for at the wishing well:
Sroom Fruit Potion
Steaming Skeem Potion
Sparkling Sky Potion
The Handy Guide to Neopian Domination
Ancient Neopian Decree

I'm currently combing through to see if any of the other super expensive ones are item drops.

ETA: Of the current items known on JN's list, that's it for the super expensive ones. Some of the less expensive are also item drops, but the ones that are listed above are the bigger ones.

Get your wishes in, people. 21 neopoints, just pick an item and start wishing for it. 7x, twice a day, about 12 hours apart to get a chance at both wish grants each day.

This is making the "Wish Upon a Wishing Well" perk from Charity Corner seem VERY appealing right now. I may activate it tomorrow! Eh, forget tomorrow. Tonight! Done!

[Daze]

I'm absolutely devastated. I had 10 The Handy Guide to Neopian Domination in my shop for 16,000.
They have all been bought and now they are selling for around 800,000 nps.

I didn't even think to check my shop. I just hope I don't get it for a quest.

Edit: I checked my CC perks and I have 800 points left. The exact amount for the extra turns at the wishing well!!

I wasn't going to spend it on anything else, so this turned out well.

[Blue]

Can't. Sell. them.? Dang.

Unfortunately, I do not have a Magical Tea Kettle in my SDB. Kayla's shop is empty

Went from 6.4k to 445k? That is insane.

Fortunately, I did sell that 2nd Golden Compass and made the prior quest worthwhile
Then again, if I get another quest asking for a Golden Compass, then I'll be in trouble. Ah well.

[Siniri]

Thanks for the info, everyone!

My friend sent me one, which is amazing.

I still have a lot of points left. Going to do the WW boon and wish for some of the inflated stuff. And go battle (but I don't think I can beat the witch doctor on hard - isn't that really insane? Guess I'd better check...).

Hopefully if we're all trying for these things, we can manage to snag a few and help each other out. And maybe TNT will fix things...

[Blue]

Glad you received one, Siniri!

Good suggestion for the Witch Doctor. He is 600 HP on Hard, which I am able to manage (in 3 rounds) thanks to some good friends' gifts over the years. Done correctly, he doesn't even put a scratch on MyPet

I maxed out on drops, but did not manage to get the ever elusive Flaming Blooble Potion, but tomorrow is another day.

[Daze]

Day 4
Bonus: Fire Faerie Shield
Quest: Grey Faerie (Golden Compact of Altador - 1195 nps) Rainbow Fountain. I didn't use the last one. Sigh!
Cookie: Soup Faerie (Mega Peagurt Smoothie - 2500 nps) +2 Mov, 2 HP - The item asked for is what is normally asked for!!

Day 4 done. So far no outlandish items for me.

[Blue]

Day 4:
Bonus: Air Faerie Gum
Quest: Air... Flaming Blooble Potion. Smurf. Anyone have one for less than 600k?

[Pickles]

Day 4 Item: Faerie Grundo Sugar Cookie
Quest: Grey, 10k item, called dark, hp+3 (to battle pet - I chanced it and it paid off)

Total stats:
Battle Pet: hp+5, lvl+7, mov+2, str+2

Daze, that stinks about the books. Such a bummer.

Siniri, I'm glad you were able to get the item! The price gouging is something else still. Mr. P had to pay 400k+ for his yesterday, and he wasn't too thrilled about that.

Blue, I'll neomail you the links currently on the SSW. They're all under 500k. Have you tried battling yet?

Is it...? It is! Your Petpet has returned from the depths of the catacombs, unscathed by foul curses but covered in cobwebs and slime. There's treasure!
petname brought you Flask of Liquid Fire

I guess that's where those can be found, if you're super duper lucky? Considering I've been going 1-2 times daily since charity corner, and this was my first one...

Got nothing good from battling today. Best item was a Main Codestone...which is the cheapest codestone there is. *headdesk*

Some of the prices on the battledome finds are coming down. Others...not so much. JN has updated the item lists again. I think I found the majority of the ones that are up there in prices that can be wished for?

Items that are currently inflated and can be wished for at the wishing well:
Sroom Fruit Potion (none currently on the SSW)
Coleus Aromaticus (only 900k+ currently on the SSW)
Sparkling Sky Potion
The Handy Guide to Neopian Domination
Ancient Neopian Decree
Magical Tea Kettle
Cackleberry Jam
Shishkafruit Fritters
Sroom Fruit Jam
Shelled Rice
Green Bean Kimchee
Jelly Sushi
Spiced Nuts
Steaming Skeem Potion (down to 40k range)

Oops. I'm just getting on Neopets now. So much for double wishes today...

Bonus: Amulet of the Sun
Quest: Grey, Faerie Kitchen Sink, 4k, +3 movement

At least I only wasted 4k!

Now to battle for Blue!

Edit: My next-to-last battle showed no items, then I got the "you've already won the max prizes" script on the last one, so I decided to check my inventory. It was the very last item I received, Blue!

[Blue]

Update - Battled the Witch Doctor 2 days in a row. No Flaming Blooble Potion either day. A couple of red codestones though

I plan to keep battling him to get one. Now it's the principle of the thing.. and to have one if someone else needs it.

Thanks to both Pickles and Siniri for the help!

...Air faerie grants +speed... and I had my non-battle pet active after his ill-fated trip to the Rainbow Pool... Whups. Ah well, My first pet is now sporting a Siniri-esque beach theme

[Daze]

I have managed to get 3 Jittery Jipple Pear Potions. It would be nice to get at least one Flaming Blooble Potion.

Day 5
Bonus: Faerie Gelert Plushie
Quest: Grey Faerie (Black Lace Gloves - SDB) +3 Mov.
Cookie: Soup Faerie (Jelly Can of Beans - 2400 nps) 2 Mov, 2 HP

[Siniri]

Bonus: Faerie Wing Guitar
Quest: Fountain, Snoogy, 18k

"Now my fountain is clogged! That "Drain-Ee-Oh-Ho-Ho-Ho" didn't clean them at all. If anything, it made it worse. Could you bring me Snoogy to unclog it. I mean really. It's almost like this salesman doesn't want any return customers."

You're going to send that poor petpet down to unclog your fountain?! No wonder it looks so sad! Quick, call the PPL!

Anyway, at least I knew exactly what I wanted to do this time. Couldn't resist customizing my blumaroo into an underwater scene - with some surprising elements that made her a little unhappy! (I also finished my kiko's look after noticing I had a few new rainbow items since last customizing them. Since I basically never buy clothing, it's nice when I finally have enough to pull together a theme.)

Your lupe is looking very proud of himself there, Blue! Reminds me of Fabio, somehow... Actually, all your customizations are pretty cool! I especially love the poogle. What background is that?!

[Pickles]

Day 5 Item: Dark Faerie Darts
Quest: Earth, 1590k item, mov+3 to back-up battle pet

Total stats:
Battle Pet: hp+5, lvl+7, mov+2, str+2
Back-up battle pet: mov+3

...dodged the bullet again today.

No luck so far with wishing (also, why are people still wishing for things besides the quest items?!), and another bad set of battle dome drops. Got a Main and Mau today...so a hair better than yesterday? *headdesk*
