Chaos on Subeta as spirits continue to pour from the heart of the gathering mist. This weather phenomenon, centered around the South Seas, remains unexplained and is believed to be of supernatural origin.
Connor Rainsong, the councilor for Shadowglen who has been investigating the odd events around Subeta had this to say:
“What? How did you get in her-r-r-re? I’m wor-r-r-rking on it!â€
We’re all working on it, Connor, and wish you speedy translation!

Such gorgeous opponents! But I do wonder what they're so angry about. I beat Lui and Ta five times, somehow. Which is lucky because it would have been very embarrassing for my feline pet to have been beaten by a couple of fish. Divine fish, but fish nonetheless. I don't think I have a chance with Tashiin, though...
But I have a bunch of EXP points saved up! Maybe...

Tashiin is gorgeous!
But even after all this time I'm nowhere near being able to beat the likes of him.
Guess I'll just go throw myself at the mercy of the Boss and hope for the best XD
Also, woot, Avatar reference!

As much as I agree you dont get life on a silver platter, some people just cant do it. I for one get major headaches with how it refeshes every turn. Its like the old games before they were revamped. Im not complaining, I have no interest in battles. But its like people who hate petes game, or the boat, they made ways to get past it for them. So its nice to see they have ideas for us who dont battle to skip it.
Sure its annoying people complain, but even with amazing revamps, or subq releases, or even new free stuff people always have something to nit-pick. I just take it with a grain of salt. Telling people to gtfo with complaining on news posts will pretty much do nothing xD As much as it would rock if it did, it just causes more annoyance from those on the other side. (Like my being excited for 11pm releases, as nothing is ever at a time I can get on in pst. Everyone in subetas time zone flips out on me saying its not fair. Its just how this place is. Nothing is ever right unless it is all about you as a single person.)
But anyway! Rant over haha. Im just seriously glad that its unlike some of my first few events where if you didnt battle, you were screwed to hell and back. If I had any desire to battle I would. But I dont have the time, interest, or eyes to handle it. I love any events with connor in them so super happy I am either way XD

@Lillita I remember seeing somebody speculating about a new island a while ago and NOW IT'S ALL THAT I CAN THINK ABOUT WITH THIS. Is it going to be a spirit realm? Can Jaxon be there? Can Ian go visit him whenever he wants? Are Connor and Jaxon's ancestors going to be there? Are we going to be able to learn more about them? SOMEBODY STOP ME MY BRAIN IS DOING BAD THINGS.

Nope, when the boss battle happens non-battlers will have a chance to do things in order to progress in the plot.

You know, everyone complaining about how hard the challengers are and how unfair it is to people who don't battle...you complain about this EVERY event. Train your pets. I can't even touch Taishiin, but am I bitching about it? No. Because that's on ME for not training as much as I should. You don't get everything handed to you, that's how life works. Work for it or chill out.

Whooo!
Man! I was putting off fighting Tashiin, cause I knew he was going to kick my butt (I'm only a T7). I managed to get one hit in before he KO'd me, so that was better than I was thinking I'd do!

"The spirits aren't accepting any more offerings... they're fighting!"
So does this mean that anything I send for Pete Says isn't going to count or...? Also does this mean that we lost whatever prize would have been ours at the end because we didn't make it before this battle step started?

Would love to know what the Dragon drops when you beat it 5x, though.

@Kat: I agree 100%! It is so easy to train on Subeta, especially with the alert system reminding you whenever the course is over. I've been a member for 5 months, only active about 3 of those 5 months, and have a T4 pet that was able to beat Lui and Ta 5 times. It still only costs me 6300 sp per course and takes only 90 minutes. Plus, experience and Battle Quests make it even easier and cheaper.
BD pets are something that you need to put effort into before the battle step arrives, and for those of us that do, it is fun and rewarding. If you can't beat everything now, it is OK! There are amazing guides on the Battle forum, and with preparation you'll be able to do more next time! (:

I should also add that @kbbob is amazing if you need help understanding or even finding a set that works for you. I owe alot of my battling success to him.

Katt
Not being mean or anything but this is a common thing i have seen on both neo and subeta. There is a battle plot, everyone moans that their pets are too weak to battle and they want more opponents closer to their range. Next battle plot they havent taken any steps to build their pets stats up. This is the first time i have done a battle plot on subeta because i was confused about how battling worked(but i have trained Kaita pretty constantly since i started and been working extra hard on her stats for around 9 months now) but i put the effort in and my pets i have been training for less than 8 months could probably handle lui and ta and all of the opponents under them. I will do some battle with them when i come home from shopping. It costs very little and takes way less time on here than on neo so it isnt too difficult to build a tier 5-6 pet in less than a year. If you start training now you will have a pet that can handle opponents when the next battle plot is on :)

My t4 took FOREVER to beat Lui and Ta, but effing finally:

So worth it for those Koi. No hope in hell of me beating that dragon, as much as I'd love to, though. I'm 90% positive it's my set that was hurting me, or maybe I just got lucky with my wins. Idk, but I'm loving these items 5ever now.

Phew, I may have a battle pet but I suck at battling. Luckily, Tashiin was a lot easier than I feared it might be ;w;
(Also, @Butterflytracks Don't waste your time playing Pete's game or donating items/sp. It says on the news page "The spirits aren't accepting any more offerings... they're fighting!" It was only available between the plot steps :C )

Ugn, couldn't beat the dragon but managed the other two easily. A gazillion hours to train a few points in one stat for higher tier pets is so tedious to wait through. T_T

I'd like more time in between challenger releases and the big boss, just because helping all the people who aren't very savvy at battling is impossible if I'm focused on a big boss.

Even if the boss lasts all weekend, that still a short amount of time to try to battle all the challengers with multiple pets. And you put a cap on so that pretty much made people that wanted to keep battling regularly to make more battle pets. Didn't enough people complain with the Tempest plot that they didn't get enough time to battle that you could stretch the battling part out longer in plots?

But why did you have to be so cruel as to put Sushi of the Evening Moon and Stars as a Body layer instead of Foreground ;_;
And that Dragon was a cakewalk. Which has me rather worried for what is coming up next, given its positioning among the challengers >_>

Also: I really like the art for the dragon spirit.
