Thanks for answering :)
Julie
Got my wins against these two challengers. Thanks Dean for the scrolls. XD

@MarchOnOff

They are from a past plot event called Masquerade: Ziara History. I don't think there is any real info on these guys other than they were battle opponents during the plot which was several years ago.
penelope
Shit.
MarchOnOff
Since no one answered me yesterday, I'll ask again, WHO are these guys and where can I find more about them?
StarShadow
Got 5 wins against Dean but none of my pets are even close to battling the other one. Maybe some day. I've never heard of either of these.
Elysium
You Won!
You have defeated Dean 10 times!

Welp, that was the easy one. Now to see if I still get served on a silver platter by Blaire.
Griffin
I managed to beat Blaire five times this time around =D sucks I can't get the achievement tho. She feels random and luck-based like General Error, so I could probably eke out a few more wins.

I hope Lady of the Waters will show up sometime soon because I need her sticker! (well I probably can't dent her still, but the prices should come down at least haha)
foxette
@Mel It was because of your comment that I even attempted to beat Dean. Ty :D (Also managed 5 wins - just!) It's really tough as you can't use your scrolls. I found Dark Death potions helpful.
Kevin
@Allegria
no problem, I wish you luck!
Allegria
Thanks, @kbbob. :) I've bought the rapier, and will look into borrowing the rest later (fortunately there's time).
Kevin
@Allegria
there's a lending thread on the battle forums if you want to give it a shot, you may get lucky and find someone who will lend :)
the rapier should be pretty cheap though, you may want to pick that up anyway!
Allegria
@kbbob Except for the Blessed Trident and Quill, I'd have to borrow everything you just mentioned. :D (Or buy, but I'm currently trying to save as much as I can...)
Kevin
@Allegria
I used
Rapier of Error
in hopes of getting a lot of freezes
and I equipped a death shard, glaciating pylonic, negating pylonic, mercurial throwing vial, and potion of life just in case I got pretty close.
you could try to borrow a possessed bow which will help by healing, defending against fire, and even freezing. freezing is pretty much the best option here.
also having more full blockers like rainbow vortex or amulet of neutrality (or both) along with your shinwas temple shard will buy you some more turns.

I used blessed trident of the banished one, rapier of error, intricate energized helmet, rainbow vortex, amulet of neutrality, phoenix quill, reviver of the lion, and trusty blades which I didn't use and would have been better off replacing with a shinwas temple shard
Allegria
@kbbob Replica Minotaur Knocker

Kevin
@Allegria
what are you using against him? Maybe I can help out :)
Allegria
@kbbob Showoff. :P :)
Kevin
@Wolfmyth @Allegria @Lore
my pet Heehaw, high tier 9, was able to get 2 wins :)
Wolfmyth
@Allegria @Lore

Tier 9 here...not exactly even stats...also lasting only 4 or 5 turns. Glad it's not just my pet and his somewhat lame weapons and scrolls...
Kestrel
YAAASSS
fite me, masq assassins.
The results are going to be different this time.
Mel
Holy crap, finally was able to get 5 wins against dean, and that is all im going to be able to manage unless i can really train a bunch in this next month
Satyr
thanks for bringing these two back! i was still too weak last time to rightfully put them in their place.
Straywillow
Definitely not for any lower level shrugs would have been nice if one was.
Inknote
Ahhh no I need the blood trail but am nowhere near close to these guys. And I love how different the art looks on these two lol
Julie
Let's see how my pet does against them after a few years of training. I hate that scrolls are disabled. XD
Life
You have defeated Blaire 5 times!

Spoiler (click here to toggle)
Life
eff yeah
terrerio35
...Who ARE these guys, and do I have to be worried if my strongest pets have max stats around the 80's?
If these people were from the big timey-wimey masqueradeplot a couple of years ago, I never got past the START of the time travel part! I had just made the watch when LOW AND BEHOLD the event ended! I was not happy, that spunded like such a fun adventure and I missed it!!!? -> ?
Yeah, I really hope ai can get at least one battle out of these guys... or else I will be miserable the rest of the month...
Muerte
GIMMIE THAT BLOOD.
MarchOnOff
No0b-ish question, but who are they and where can I find out more? For my Travel Gallery, you know...If this isn't suppose to be asked here, sorry please.
Allegria
@Lore My main pet is Tier 10 and I'm not going anywhere near either of these.
Shadow
FINALLY Blood Trail is mine after -years- of waiting. Muuuhahaha. Thank you for the opportunity to knock his arrogant face in!
~Kai
Lore
Hm, I can only last about 4 or 5 turns against Dean with my T9 (even stats). Does anyone happen to know roughly what tier your pet should be to win against him? I was curious if my pet was too low on stats or if I just need better weapons, lol.
Allegria
Oh dear. Nooooooo... Not yet.
Stiles
Oh man I need Blood Trail though
Galaxia STAFF
Well, five wins against Dean. Blaire isn't happening, though. Anyone got any tips?
Ramby
Wowzers
FLUX
hells to the no, i remember having a nervous breakdown trying to get my 5th win against this scroll disabling hell
Laurey
Not strong enough for these :(

Oh well
Lexx
Me: Huh, I was around for that plot, but I do not remember these guys. I wonder why--- sees their stats HAH AHA AHAHAH. OKAY, NOPE. Must have pushed these guys out of my brain.

Welp, I don't stand a chance, but I hope others beat them so their loot can get out into the market more!
shadowstalker2013
would love to borrow someones pet for 15 minutes, but i know that's not possible
shadowstalker2013
well this sux :(
Kaya

Kevin

Amber STAFF

Kaya
@Amber you mean space to ice ski? 8D otherwise im also completely stumped on that statement q.q
Lirikai
You have defeated Dean 5 times!

Dean drops:

Misplaced Mission Details


Tome of Death


Blood Trail


He also has the chance to drop Assassin's Scroll and Fire/Death Amulets randomly during the other battles (and Ninja Flopits, lol)
Amber STAFF
@Ursa i mean they're from the Masq plot so maybe he's used to space
dotSei
HURK. OW THEY HURT. AND NO SCROLLS?:C
Kaya
Blaire: break a leg!
Dean: you mean break my back

???
or am i the only one who doesnt get that pose im sorry im genuinely curious whether he secretly prefers ice skiing
Damon
@Amber
Thanks for putting back the old loot or some of it from what I can see!
Darkrai
I can't fight either of them ;^;
Damon
@far
LOL Dean is a little easier to handle, not sure about the other.
Robin
I never knew they were so strong?? what the h e c k bye felicia
far
Well, I don't like them n___n
@Virus
Amber STAFF
@Riedy We never had a set number of challengers we'd release each month, just that some will be brought back. :) The first month had quite a few because there are a billion pylots.
Damon
@far
That was their quirk.
far
