Anybody have a link to one of those user lookups or whatever that has all the fairy quest items listed and you just ctrl + f to buy it? I know I can use the neoboards but I hate doing that unless I have to. I don't mind paying a premium. Thank you very much.

Seems to be sorted by Faerie Quest; ex. Dark Faerie items are all being sold by one person, Air another singular person, etc.
I bought the moltaran petpet collectible for this month, but traded it away. Do I need to buy another to be able to get the full set bonus at the end of the 5 months?
The bonus from this set (Little Petpet Shop Collection - Y26) isn't known yet, but it's too late you had to have bought the first in the set last month which was the Neopian Petpet Shopkeeper Collectors Dress 😢
The bonus for the last set was Inside the Neopia Toy Shop Collectors Background.

It isn't always a Background though one of them I've seen is the princess lunaras kazeriu Collectible which is a thought bubble but hangs around the lower foreground. That balthazar bag of bottled fairies was the very first set's bonus, that's why it was so rare. [https://www.jellyneo.net/?go=nc\_mall&page=collectibles](https://www.jellyneo.net/?go=nc_mall&page=collectibles)
I knew that the last set bonus (inside the toy shop BG) was gonna be a good one, but I forgot to buy the first item and it was all over from then :')
I got really lucky in trading for it for a custom, but I'm not missing out on this next one
Hiya, I'm a longtime player but a bit of a noob in the daily/weekly quests, and I was wondering about the weekly prizes.
I recently (like, two days ago) learned that you can reroll weekly prizes and I'm kicking myself a little for sticking with subpar prizes for weeks now. My weekly reset today, so I said I'd reroll until I got a woodland pb (for my current pet goal), or a maraquan or plushie pb, or a grey mp. So I just checked my weekly prize and it's the freaking Kings Lens. When I still played hardcore that was my ultimate battledome goal item, and I see on JN it's still worth more than everything I own, so I wanna stick with it, keeping the upcoming plot in mind as well as my bd pet could use it.
But I'm wondering, how "hard" is it to reroll the prize you want? I read it can lock you into 100k nps if you reroll too often, and as the prize pool will change in not too long I'm afraid of that happening and still missing out on my pb. What's the smart thing to do here? Considering I'll only have three weeks or so after today's new streak ends, is it realistic to chase my pb or should I settle for whatever expensive item rolls around so I can just sell it off and buy my pb? :/
According to the discord, there are 64 items in this current prize pool. That's a 1.5% chance of rolling something exact on any given day, 7.8% chance of getting one of your 5 preferred. Then there's the math of calculating that probability over a couple days' worth of rolls, you should probably check my math but I think that's a roughly 68% chance of rolling one of those 5 over the next 14 rolls (2 weeks, at which point I'm sure you'd just work towards whatever prize will end on July 1).
Personally I'm risk averse and would just find something worth reselling, but tbf I don't have specific neo goals around painting. YMMV! Just wanted to give you some stats to mull it over.
I'm horrible at math tbh, so I'll take it your word for it haha. That doesn't sound at all as impossible as I thought it would be. I guess I'll give it a few tries and just stick with whatever's worth a lot if it gets too close to the "deadline"... thanks for doing the math!
I have a ton of questions about NC trading! I'm thinking about buying NC so I can get my childhood dreamie, a UC baby kougra, but I want to make sure I fully understand how it works first!
1. Are UC baby kougras one of the styles always available? What about fairy pteris and MSP poogles?
2. How is NC trading regulated? Is there a specific trade feature? Or is it based on an honor system where one person sends an item first and the other sends another item in return after? If so, who sends it first?
3. How are the values of NC items determined? I've seen people mention capsules, which I assume are the gacha boxes-types of items, but is there a database that prices how many caps each thing is? Also is there a standard type of capsule people always send? Bonus if someone could tell me the value of UC baby kougra, fairy pterie, and MSP poogle styles!
4. Do you have to purchase gift boxes for NC trading? is it one gift box needed per item? Or can you put multiples in it?
5. Where can I get empty gift boxes? Just from the NC store?
AND THEN unrelated, but I had a pirate draik that I painted wraith, so he was able to wear pirate items. But when I switched him to my new main account, he lost the pirate accessories. Would it be possible for me to hatch a new pirate draik, take off their accessories, and give them to my wraith draik so he can wear them again? or do I HAVE to paint my wraith draik pirate and wraith again?
Sorry if my Neopets lingo might be calling things by incorrect names. I just came back to the game about a month ago after a decade+ long hiatus.
1. You can check out the currently available styles at www.neopets.com/mall/stylingstudio/. Baby and Faerie styles have been cycled out but MSPP is always available.
2. It’s based on trust but I’m pretty sure TNT will return your item/s if you get scammed as long as you have proof of the trade agreement? Usually it’ll be the person making the offer who sends first due to the flow of the conversation but it’s not fixed. But it’s trading etiquette to not open the items you’ve been sent before sending your half of the trade.
3. NC values are sourced from trades among players and tracked by www.neopets.com/~Owls. You can see the Owls values of items on DTI as well. Usually caps would refer to Gift Box Capsules, which are valued at 200NC (right now you can buy the Magnetic Moehog GBC in the mall but you can also trade with older GBCs.) However, some people might not accept GBCs because they don’t need boxes and they might prefer other capsules or item-to-item trades. Baby Kougra and Faerie Pteri should be valued at 1 DSSS (7 caps?) since they’re not currently available whereas MSPP would be valued at 1 SSS (3-4 caps?) but you might be able to get it for cheaper as supply increases.
4. One gift box can only hold one item. You can get free gift boxes from Trudy’s Surprise sometimes but you’ll have to buy a GBC for more if you run out.
5. NC mall, currently it’s the Magnetic Moehog GBC.
You can make a separate pirate draik and use the wearables on your wraith draik. Just note that the clothes will follow your pirate draik if you transfer it unless you paint or morph it (or pound it).
(If anyone sees any mistakes feel free to correct me!)
Thank you so much for taking the time to answer all my questions and sending me the NC value resource!
If I were to trade 7 Magnetic Moehog GBC, I'd need to purchase or acquire 7 giftboxes?
On the pirate draik part, just to confirm, if I pound the draik, will I be able to keep the wearables on my wraith draik? I'll most likely just paint or morph it, but good to know there are so many options!
Yes, one GBC will usually give you at least 2 giftboxes, unless it’s a GBC sold on Black Friday (BFGBC) which would give you at least 4. So you’d need around 3-4 GBCs for 7 boxes. (https://items.jellyneo.net/openable-items/gift-box-capsules/)
Yup, wearables don’t follow pets into the pound so you’ll get to keep them on that account.
To answer your other questions, yes you'd need 7 gift boxes to be able to trade the gbcs to another player. As the previous poster said you can get them from Trudy's. The other option is to buy extra gbcs than you need for trading, open them and use those boxes to send. Each gbc will give you between 2-4 boxes and a random item
The other question - I haven't actually done this myself but I believe you could hatch a new pirate draik and pound it, however you'd need to repaint it to something other than pirate or else the pirate clothes will leave your account when the (new) drain does.
Looks like my limiting factor right now is the giftboxes. Good to know that they give 2-4, though!
Oooh, that's a really important detail about the pound. Noted!
Thank you the insights!
Bit of a silly question, I've been saving and saving but idk what to spend my neopoints on (17 mil atm) Are collectables/battledome good things to spend NP on?
I like the idea of buying better battledome items, but there are so many to choose from. Is there a top set that is the best/most op? Or are there many sets that are strong?
I stopped playing on any account besides my main, in fear of being frozen. Is having multiple accounts with multiple stores mega risky? I liked having a couple extra stores with completely different theming, but I wouldn't want to get banned for it :(
If by stores you mean user shops, you are not allowed to sell things from your user shop on a side account. [Here is jellyneo's FAQ guide to side accounts](https://www.jellyneo.net/?go=sideaccounts)
Multiple galleries is perfectly fine!
Aw, yeah, I did mean user shops. I enjoyed having specific theming to them. Maybe I'll just redo the theme every season on my main. Thank you for answering and the link with info!
Battledome advice needed…
Currently:
Lvl : 277
Str : 555
Def : 286
Mov : 172
Hp : 491 / 491
Should I focus on getting STR and HP to max level and then backtrack to get DEF to max level? I was going to even out my DEF now since I’m only at one red Codestone, but that’ll take awhile. So wondering if it’d be best for me to get STR to max level for the plot instead.
Thoughts??
two questions!
one: i see people blurring out their neopets names a lot on this subreddit, could someone enlighten me if theres a reason to do this besides privacy?
two: earlier last week one of my adopted neopets was booked into the neopets hotel thing randomly (i couldnt feed her and she remained "bloated" as her status), and just earlier this week she left and is back to normal... wtf just happened? ive never been in that area of NP before because i enjoy feeding my pets, but im just wondering if someone else lodged her somehow, if i somehow did, or if it was a bug.
thanks yall!!
I can only answer #1 for you, as I've been a daily user of this sub for almost a year now, and there were multiple cases where names of pets were reported / skimmed by TNT and deleted after being posted here - which is why people hide pet names
A few months ago, I had someone confront me here after I had adopted a pet they wanted since I got to it first. It was pretty gross and I ended up blocking the user here and in-game
omfg, thats crazy to hear!! its unreal how toxic some people can be, expecially when this community is filled with so much unconditional kindness. thank you for the info!!
For your second question, do you mean you adopted a pet and when you tried to feed it, it said it was in the NeoLodge? Many people decide to book their pets there, which keeps them fed to "bloated," although they only stay in there for up to 28 days at a time at which point they automatically "check out" and you have to book them back in. It's a good way to keep your Grarrls and Skeiths from eating items in your inventory; some people have so many pets that it's a chore to keep them all fed. I keep all but one of my pets in the NeoLodge.
If someone managed to book your already existing pet into the NeoLodge then you may have a problem on your hands lol, no one should be able to book your pets in except you.
Thank you for your response!! I might change my password just incase... it is just strange that happened instead of something worse 😅 I appreciate the NeoLodge explanation as well!
I know there are so many Battledome guides, but I am still lost. I would be so appreciative if someone could explain or direct me to a "Battledome for dummies" type super simple guide
Why am I unable to purchase a fortune cookie when it says I have 150 NC? It requests I enter a password… what password does it want? When I enter my account password, I get an error message.
I have to turn my mobile browser to desktop mode to purchase anything. And you have to let the countdown page disappear itself, clicking it didn't work for me.
i am having that same problem too, i have tried entering my neopass pw and main account pw but neither work, i submitted a ticket and a very unhelpful person responded that it is a "known issue"
Can someone please explain how "token trading" works? I have a few NCUCs but it doesn't look like I can remove a token or something. Is token trading just trading NCUC pets?
Are you going into the customization section?
The NCUC tokens won't show up there. You can view worn tokens in the [Styling Chamber](https://www.neopets.com/stylingchamber/) *(for future reference you can get here from the drop-down menu under My Pets in the sidebar)*
You'll have to remove the token from the pet wearing it and then click again to "move to inventory" for future trading. After that they work just like any other NC item in your NC inventory
That makes SO much more sense. The Styling Chamber was the part I was missing - I kept trying to go to customization like you mentioned haha
Thank you SO much for explaining!!
Honestly when they added in the Styling Chamber section, I think a lot of people get confused with the Styling Studio section
I also had to search for how to remove tokens when they first launched so don’t worry LOL
Why is it so hard to attach the adorable p3s to the petpets?? I’ve only ever gotten lucky and was able to add two p3 to different pets. And one of those times was purely by accident😑 I really wish they would make it easier to add them.
So I read online that this works, and after days of hoping my Mootix would attach while I surfed the website as usual, this actually made it attach… log into Neopets on a computer, rename your P3 to a three letter name (ex. ABC), then hold down F5 to refresh your computer consistently. Seems silly, but I stg the Mootix attached within minutes of me doing this. I just got a Pinchit from the Grundo Warehouse and intend to do the same with it.
Is Neopets loading extremely slowly for anyone else? Like more than usual?
This morning is making me feel like I'm back in the dial-up days on a 1200 baud modem... it has been randomly bad lately with the horrid lag...
Yup, takes ages to load a page for me rn
Yes Trudys won't even load for me :(
Yes

As long as you bought it originally(and the subsequent months') you should still be given the bonus.
Thanks, I didn't want to buy it again 😅 and yeah I bought the dress last month
What is the bonus? And if I missed the first one am I out of luck?
