Friendly Thur--Tuesday: Kain

It doesn't seem as if Kain would like you to think he's afraid of anything! Nonetheless, he's been known to… exaggerate before. We've certainly heard a few high pitched screams coming from his direction more than once, although he denies it! There must be something that gives this courageous hero the creeps, though. If you can figure it out you could unlock Kain as a challenger.

Ahh too much for Love Eclipsed but I LOVE that hammer! :O

Did what was explained and got him as a challenger. Sadly my pet isn't strong enough yet. :)
But thanks to you guys for the advice!

EEEK!!
That was a strategic scream. Those bugs are almost certainly venomous. You can tell by the, uh, frequency of their buzzing... look, I just know that high-pitched noises scare them, and I was trying to save your life, all right?
You've found a Hidden Opponent!
Kain challenges you to a fight in the Battle Coliseum!

I sent Carrion Mantis, Orchid Mantis, Praying Mantis, Devils Flower Mantis and Dew Drop Ant, in one box, typed out EXACTLY as "User not found: [npc] Kain" (It has to have the User not found: [npc] and the space) and I got it. Hopefully this will help.

Rarity: Challenger Loot (170)
Description: Whatever escapes the initial impact of the hammer swing will be caught and zapped in the electric current pulsing around the hammer's head. No insect will escape, I will make sure of that, even if I destroy everything around me.
The description gave me a chuckle.

The last time we saw NPC Kain in the News it was a gelatin attack. Think a screen door would work against those?
a partially deaf guess
I'm partially deaf and I fear things that are quiet that I CAN"T hear and things that come from the direction where I am completely deaf. NPC Kain relies on his hearing, so quiet stuff might be super-scary? I tried Preod, Shy Mouse, Albicant Moth (pricey!) and Mues in my Inventory and visiting him. No good. I tried equipping as minion Shy Mouse to my experiment robotic pet and Albicant to my NIGHTMARE BUMBUS for double insect horror and making them each active pets and visiting his shop. No good.

Tried wearing the cicada hair because it says "Complete with authentic chittering noise" but nothing happened.





Idea...if Kain is blind then how about:

Something that just sounds like a bee/wasp/mosquito/whatever? Any items of those?

Tried going to the shop wearing insect goggles hoping that would freak him out, but nothing happened.

Not having the best of luck figuring this one out myself this time around either.
wearing stinging/ experiment 585 / ant agony skins- dont think it would be skins in any case as not everyone may have the skins and that's a genuinely unfair method of locking a challenger behind. Still tested regardless, nada.
wearing Lucky Cricket Cage, Grave Dirt Grub, ruby widow necklace or ring, Veta Lake Firefly items, Bottled Butterflies, Fly Wings. the insect framed specimens and fashion sketches from Vesnali a while back. Temporary insect habitats. Fireflies in a Jar. Jar Of Annoying Flies
Was already wearing Shiny Pink Beetle and that wasnt working.
Also not much dice in having items in my inventory, Bugtastic Cricket Lolly, False Ruby Widow, Bald Faced Hornet, Blue Dragonfly,Cherrium Blossodid, Common Grasshopper, honeybee,Iridescent Green Jewel Beetle.

someone could visit him using the pink moth zombie skin and test it?
I sadly dont have it (yet) so.... cant test it myself.

It didn't work to take all defensive items out of my armory... or to wear or have in my inventory either the

. Having a pet who had recently eaten a bug-themed item as my active pet didn't make a difference, either.

Tried battling Careaper and insect opponents (Technicant) with an Illumis Shield equipped, didn't work.
@Foxe You do spoilers like this - [spoiler]text[/spoiler] but without the asterisks in the brackets. It will look like this...
If you want the green box to say something, you do it like this - [spoiler=this is a spoiler]text[/spoiler] but again without the asterisks, so it will look like this...

Since one of his loot items is an electric hammer... it made me think Thor. (Also, Stan Lee just passed yesterday and it wouldn't surprise me if this was some form of tribute to him... electric hammer... Thor... Stan Lee...)
Thor's enemy Miek is a roach (right?)
So I tried Surprised Roach, Roach, and Dragonscale Roach. Nothing. But perhaps I'm onto something? Help!

Is it enough just to step into his shop with the [equipped/inventory]items/active pet(s) or am I skipping a step?
Do we need to buy something to elicit a reaction?

What about cricket/grasshopper items? He's blind, right?
Sorry, I don't know how to do spoiler tags.
Also, how do I access old challengers? I only have a few unlocked and don't know how to get the others.
