This guide is designed to aid you in developing a good set that will help you in both 1p and 2p. While your set can be fine tuned for whichever style you prefer a good common middle ground is always handy. I will be adding more sets when I have the time. Between this thread, the other thread, work, and life I am spread a little thin. Expect much more released for this thread shortly.

100k Battledome Set
Stealer - Purple Sticky Hand - 30k (50% chance to steal an opponents weapon, after stealing opponent gets this weapon)<br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; ">Constant - Ridiculously Heavy Battle Hammer - 6k (9 Icons, 3air, 3earth, 3physical)
Constant - Ridiculously Heavy Battle Hammer - 6k (9 Icons, 3air, 3earth, 3physical)
Healer - Bronze Scorchstone - 8k (Heals 15 HP)
Bomb - Brain Muffin - 4.5k (15 icons, 5earth, 5light, 5physical SINGLE USE)
Bomb - Brain Muffin - 4.5k (15 icons, 5earth, 5light, 5physical SINGLE USE)<br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; ">Defense - Downsize - 5.5k (50% of all Icons DEFENSE)
Shield - Lead Shield - 19k (Defends 13 icons, 5earth, 5water, 3physical)
Total Price of Set: 83,500 Neopoints

This set is a pretty cheap way to stand a chance against the early opponents in the Battle Dome 1p ranks and in very beginner stages of 2p. With a decently trained pet this is still an okay combination to have and can be an inexpensive way to BD while saving for a higher ranged set.

250k Battledome Set
Constant - Golden Compass - 50k (9 Icons, 3fire, 3light, 3air - Defends from 3 dark icons)
Constant - Ridiculously Heavy Battle Hammer - 6k (9 Icons, 3air, 3earth, 3physical)
Freezer - Snowglobe Staff - 90k (6 icons, 3 water, 3light - 100% Defense breaks for rest of battle - Icy Snowball - Yellow Snowball - Breaks for rest of battle)
Bomb - Fire Muffin - 1.8k (12 Icons, 4fire, 4light, 4physical - SINGLE USE)
Defense - Downsize - 5.5k (50% of all Icons DEFENSE)
Healer - Blue Scorchstone - 50k (Heals 30 HP)
Stealer - Purple Sticky Hand - 30k (50% chance to steal an opponents weapon, after stealing opponent gets this weapon)
Bomb - Chocolate Chip Battle Biscuit - 1k (12 icons, 4air, 4earth, 4physical - SINGLE USE)
Total Price of Set: 234,300 Neopoints

There are some cheaper substitutes however I recommend sticking with the Golden Compass Constant as you get the added defense from a common icon type. This early on in the Battledome you probably will not be spending much time defending so Downsize and your available Faerie Abilities will aid you a great deal but beyond that an actual shield should not be necessary besides for 1p specific battles.

600k Battledome Set
Reflect - Voidberry Potion - 90k (Reflects 6 icons, 3dark, 3air - Reflected damage dealt is based on opponents stats)
Constant - Ramtors Spellbook - 120k (10 icons, 5light, 5dark)
Constant - Scuzzys Comb - 100k (10 icons, 5light, 5physical)
Healer - Blue Scorchstone - 50k (Heals 30 HP)
Bomb - Brain Muffin - 4.5k (15 icons, 5earth, 5light, 5physical SINGLE USE)
Freezer - Scroll of Freezing - 75k (100%, 20% chance to break permanently)
Shield - Sophies Magic Hat - 125k (Defends 14 icons, 3fire, 5earth, 3dark, 3physical)
Defense - Downsize - 5.5k (50% of all Icons DEFENSE)
Total Price of Set: 570,000 Neopoints<br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; ">
This is probably the strongest combination of Weapons for the price range. You may find some cheaper alternatives to the Bomb, or have a different non-breakable freezer choice but besides that this is an awesome set for the price range. Sophies Magic Hat is going to cripple most weapons used against you at this range. Besides a single upgrade here or there to your set loadout this is going to be your set until you start making jumps into the 10m+ sets. This is a good strong set that shouldn't be sneered at due to its versatility.


Defense - Thick Smoke Bomb - 15k (100% blocker - SINGLE USE) <br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; ">Bomb - Honey Potion - 650k (14-16 icons, 13 earth, 1-3physical)
Dual Duty - Hanso Charisma Charm - 575k (10 icons, 5light, 5earth - BLOCKS all dark)
Freezer - Scroll of Freezing - 75k (100%, 20% chance to break permanently)
Healer - Greater Healing Scroll - 90k (Heals for up to 50HP with no overheal)
Shield - Sophies Magic Hat - 125k (Defends 14 icons, 3fire, 5earth, 3dark, 3physical)<br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; ">Constant - Brynns Legendary Sword of Wraith Smiting - 870k (13 icons, 3fire, 3earth, 2light, 5physical)<br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; ">Bomb - Water Muffin - 6k (15 icons, 5earth, 5water, 5physical)<br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; ">Total Price of Set: 2,406,000 Neopoints<br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; "><br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; ">This is a good mid-ranged set that provides two constants, two bombs, a shield, great healer, and a good freezer. While the price tag is a bit steep the Honey Potion is a Once Per Battle Bomb that can be swapped out for a cheaper 15 icon Bomb such as the Brain Muffin or Water Muffin lowering the cost under 2mil. The Hanso Charisma Charm is a great dual duty weapon that can work as a Constant for blocking all dark (very common icon type) and hitting for 10 icons each turn.<br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; ">
10m Defensive Battledome Set
Reflect - Prickly Potion - 250k (Reflects 6 icons, 3dark, 3fire - Reflected damage dealt is based on opponents stats)
Reflect - Voidberry Potion - 90k (Reflects 6 icons, 3dark, 3air - Reflected damage dealt is based on opponents stats)
Healer - Purple Schorchstone - 2mil (Heals 50 icons - Once per battle)
Freezer - Randomly Firing Freeze Ray - 200k (4icons, 2air, 2water - 50% chance to freeze - Vanishes after freezing for rest of battle)
Defense - Thick Smoke Bomb - 15k (100% blocker - SINGLE USE)
Defense - Downsize - 5.5k (50% of all Icons DEFENSE)
Shield - Pirate Captains Hat - 4.2mil (Defends ALL earth, ALL light, 5fire)
Constant - Portable Kiln - 3.1mil (11 icons, 11fire)
Total Price of Set: 9,860,500 Neopoints<br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; "><br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; ">Yes I know for the 10m range having only one constant that does a single icon type is not ideal. This set is really set for defending from 2p opponents that have 40mil+ BD sets. It is also geared to help deal with most higher end 1p BD opponents. Using your opponents strength against them is the appeal to the Reflect weapons even though they are lacking in icons they can still pack a massive punch if timed properly. The Portable Kiln is only really stopped if your opponent knows and plans to stop fire icons before entering battle. While though fire icons are getting more consistent with the Sword of Reif coming into the picture. The Portable Kiln is a good and fairly cheap alternative. You can easily swap out the reflection weapons for others such as Ramtors Spell Book and Ring of the Devilpuss and the value of the set remians around the same. Experiment a little and do what works best for your playing strategy.<br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; "><br style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-size: medium; ">-Reserved for updating purposes-

Guys, for a shield before Hubrid Nox, should I go with Patched Magic Hat or Sophies Magic Hat? I was thinking since I'm gonna get HCC anw, might as well get PMH instead of SMH since SMH's 3 dark block kinda overlaps with HCC. What do you guys think?
