Friendly Thursday: Batista

Friendly Thursday: Batista

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! You look like a person who wants to win big, step right up and see if you can beat me!"

Batista is a confident and charming stall holder over on the Delphi Carnival Pier, always beaming and willing to start up a fast-paced (and often one-sided) conversation. If you get pulled in, you might find you're all of a sudden in the middle of one of his ploys and you're not quite sure how but you're parting with your money and all the while with a smile on your face.

He's all ruse and it doesn't seem as if anything could shake his confidence. But there is one thing that truly wipes the smile from his face, and if you can find it and unlock Batista as a challenger be prepared for the trickiest battle you could face!

Sorry if this was asked already....but If Gunter is gone...how do you unlock him as a challenger...I thought they could be unlocked at any point? or was it ONLY that month? thanks!

Laurey 07/12/18 7:47 pm

@FCoD
Did you have it in your inventory and win a game?

FCoD 07/12/18 7:43 pm

13th Cat didn't work for me... is it random?

omg_carrie 07/12/18 7:37 pm

oooooh I NEED those new items, they're just perfect for my Lady Luck :D I forgot how much I liked Batista.

I think it may be the actual item called 13th Cat rather than thirteen cats in your inventory :P

Laurey 07/12/18 7:36 pm

Solution Spoilers

Well, I had a theory about having any sort of "unlucky" item in your inventory and winning. But I won a game with the Unlucky Zooky Paw in my inventory and didn't unlock him.

So maybe it is only the 13th Cat that works.

It makes sense now why he's the challenger though, even if he doesn't fit the monthly theme. Because of Friday the 13th this month. :P

PrincessJudith 07/12/18 7:21 pm

Thank you all. I just put 13 cats in my inventory. Now to try and play that silly game. Sigh........

If you can play every 12 minutes, maybe an item with 13 in the name is a reference to playing ASAP?

Had the 13th cat in inventory, Won first try!

PrincessJudith 07/12/18 7:15 pm

What kind of cat did you have?

Jenna 07/12/18 7:15 pm

I added the 13th cat, put the base eyes underneath, had a sad face, and added the emo raincloud (i figured extra sad?? idk) and got'em.

i'm guessing it's the cat if Sovereign didn't get it with the base eyes alone.

Petcollector 07/12/18 7:13 pm

Congratulations, you won! You have been awarded 10,000 sP and 3 carnival ticket(s)!

had a 13th cat in my inventory. It was my 2nd win.

PrincessJudith 07/12/18 6:59 pm

Thank you. I hope I have a chance to topple him. That is once we get to him

Darkrai 07/12/18 6:58 pm

@PrincessJudith Yes, he's the secret unlockable challenger for this month's Friendly Thursday

PrincessJudith 07/12/18 6:56 pm

Is he a battledome challenger???? I am a bit confused

Sovereign 07/12/18 6:54 pm

Spoiler (click here to toggle)

it's not the eyes behind the base unless it includes wearable eyes since my base eyes are below my base on the regular, and i havent gotten him, so im guessing its the cats?

Jess 07/12/18 6:51 pm

I should probably point out that I won twice in a row if that makes any difference...

Per Luck's advice:
I put the eyes layer below my base layer and had the other facial features + hair above the base layer.
I also put a 13th Cat in my inventory just in case :P
Then I played Bluff and won.
I'm guessing it has to be one of those two.

I only played (and won) once today! :c
Last time I played was a very long time ago, so I have played before.

@Luck

Spoiler (click here to toggle)

Did you win multiple times in a row or anything, or was that the first time?

I'm trying to think of something it could be, because I feel like it wouldn't be just random for winning. Considering one of the prizes is loaded dice, maybe he cheats and so winning multiple times would confuse him as to how you're beating his cheating ways. IDK though

Luck 07/12/18 6:40 pm

for the first 4 wins

Can't beat him anymore, no book I can see.

What was in your inventory?

raul 07/12/18 6:19 pm

definitely not this!

won a game of bluff (with 3 dice left) while wearing a default sad mouth

very very important conclusions

since Luck got Batista after winning a match of Bluff, we can definitely start from there

raul 07/12/18 6:15 pm

@Luck

i mean, did you change your HA in between tries? were you wearing the lil pout default mouth in your last try? also, are you wearing anything with the words "emo" or "sad"?

I did not, this is what I was wearing when I played and won. I am wearing a default frowny face though

raul 07/12/18 6:13 pm

@Luck did you change your HA or anything?

Spoiler (click here to toggle)

i'm thinking it's related to the Pout and Sad face expressions. Notice how smiles are spoken about twice in the news post.

I tried forfeiting when he only had one die left and that didn't work. I had four though, so maybe if you have five and he has one?

@Thespian Don’t worry- NPCs bounce right back after a severe beating. Just ask Gunther.

I do not understand that game.

@Thespian Let me know when you’re done so I can leave him half dead in the alley behind the art museam. <3

I hope it's not game related because that game drives me wonky.

@frederick i would smooch his smug face and i have no shame ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Jess 07/12/18 5:52 pm

NOPE

Just tried visiting him with no sP on hand and smelting 100k (he can't con me out of my sP if I don't have any :P) and nothing.

I haven't even played this game in like forever, I had to read the rules again.
