Neopets Island Training

At the Mystery Island Training School, you can train your pets through training courses. Each course takes a fixed amount of time, depending on your pet's Level. Each course raises a chosen stat by one point although occasionally you can get a training bonus which raises that stat by more than one point. Each course is paid with Codestones. The Mystery Island Training School is located on Mystery Island in the land of Neopia. The Mystery Island Training School is used to train your pets Strength, Defense, Agility, Endurance, and Level. But truly, the only stats you need in the Battledome are Endurance, Strength, Defense, and level.

Why should one train their pet?
Training your pet is absolutely a waste of time and money if you do not battle. The stats your pet has, only have meaning in battle. You will not get any other extras from high stats than the fact that your pet will do better in battle. Unless you count the fact that people might admire you for your great pet. But there might be less expensive ways to get peoples admiration.
Which stats are there?
There are five different stats your pet has that you can train, they are:

- Level
- Strength
- Defence
- Movement (also known as agility)
- Hitpoints (also known as hp, health or endurance)

Level
Level is important for training. How many strength points, hitpoints etc your pet can train to at one of the three training schools all depends on your pet's level. Below different ways of training will be discussed and you will be able to read more about this. There are also other ways you can train where level doesn't matter, but for training schools it's definitely important.
During battles level does absolutely nothing. There is however a certain move called 'Berserk Attack' that your pet will learn at level 50 that is extremely helpful during battles. This move increases the amount of attack you do. There are also species specific moves that pets will learn at certain levels, but berserk attack is the most important move a pet can learn while advancing in levels.

Strength and Defence
How much attack, or how much defence your pet can do, depends on what strength/defence boost your pet has. These boosts mean that the basic attack or defence of your weapons is multiplied by the strength/defence boost to make the attack/defence more powerful. In the chart below you can see which strength/defence boosts there are.

Number of strength/defence points	Damage multiplier
0-7	0.5
8-12	0.75
13-19	1.0
20-34	1.25
35-54	1.5
55-84	2.0
85-124	2.5
125-199	3.0
200-249	4.5
250-299	5.5
300-349	6.5
350-399	7.5
400-449	8.5
450-499	9.75
500-549	11.0
550-599	12.0
600-649	13.0
650-699	14.0
700-749	15.0
750+	16.0

An example: If two pets had the exact same weapons, but one pet was in strength boost 200-249 and the other pet was in strength boost 85-124 and they would battle, what would happen? This would probably lead to the pet with the highest strength boost to win, because their basic weapons damage would be multiplied by 4,5 while the other pet's damage was only multiplied by 2,5.

This works the same way for defence weapons, they are more effective if used by a pet with a higher defence boost.

Movement
Movement, also known as agility at the training schools is not known to do anything during battles at all. However, some weapons like the Heavy Robe Of Thievery, require a certain level of agility. In this case 200 movement points (and 100 intelligence points) in order for the Robe to do anything at all.

Hitpoints
Hitpoints are also known as hp, health or endurance. Your hitpoints determine how much attack your pet can take. Every time someone hits you, you will lose some hitpoints. The more hitpoints you have, the longer you will be able to survive on the remaining hitpoints. This makes hitpoints very important.

Their home can also be customized and filled with wallpapers, furniture and flooring. Take care of a virtual pet in Neopets.When owning a real pet is not possible, own a virtual one like in Neopets. In this game, you must take care of a virtual pet that you created and explore their world named Neopia. Neopets 8 bit. There are no objectives to follow, just take care of your pet and help them grow up and be free of illness.However, they can engage in battles with other Neopets, be customized with clothing, accessories, looks and more.

How to train your pet?
Now that you know training strength, hitpoints and defence are the most important stats to train, it is important to know how you can train your pet. There are several options in the form of training schools, quests, items, games and many more:

[Cap'n Threelegs' Swashbuckling Academy] [Mystery Island Training School]
[Secret Ninja Training School] [Faerie Quests] [Kitchen Quests] [Coltzan's Shrine]
[Secret Laboratory] [Neggs] [Shrooms] [Other Items] [Scratchcards] [Fruit Machine] [Deadly Dice] [Dice A Roo] [Turmaculus] [Treasure Maps] [Random Events] [Referrals]

Also if you manage to get a Training Fortune Cookie you can decrease your training time at all three schools. Check out our Fortune Cookie Guide for more information.

Cap'n Threelegs' Swashbuckling Academy
The Academy is a training school for all pets under level 40, it can be found on Krawk Island and is run by Cap'n Threelegs. At the Academy you can pick your pet and one of the five courses (level, strength, defence, agility and endurance). After you have done so, you will need to pay for the training before it will actually start. At the academy you can only pay with dubloons, the number of dubloons you have to pay depends on the level of your pet. Neopets underwater fishing. The time it takes for your pet to increase in stats also depends on the level of your pet. The higher your pet's level, the more advanced the training, so it will take longer before it is completed. The Swashbuckling Academy may be cheaper than the Mystery Island Training School, but courses at the Academy will take longer to complete.

You will need to have the exact Dubloon coin that is asked for in your inventory to pay for your course.
If you do not have the correct type of coin, you can either exchange your coins for higher valued coins at the Dubloon-O-Matic or buy something at The Golden Dubloon or Little Nippers to recieve change.

Course Type	Neopet Level	Cost	Length
Sea Urchin	10 and under	1 Dubloon	4 hours
Deckhand	11-20	2 Dubloons	6 hours

Cap'n	31-40	5 Dubloons	10 hours

If you decide not to do a certain course after entering the information to start one, you can cancel the course before paying it.

You can train your endurance, strength, defence and agility up to double your pet's level.

Mystery Island Training School
Another training school can be found on Mystery Island, this is the Mystery Island Training School. This training school will train all pets under level 250. You can also pick your pet and one of the five courses (level, strength, defence, agility or endurance). After that you have to pay for the course in codestones.

All of these codestones can be used to pay for the courses:
- Bri Codestone
- Eo Codestone
- Har Codestone
- Lu Codestone
- Main Codestone

Like the academy, you can also get the Super Bonus at the Mystery Island Training School, when this happens your pet increases whatever you were training with 1-4 extra points, rather than just one.

Secret Ninja Training School
The third training school in Neopia is also located on Mystery island. At the foot of Techo Mountain one can find the Secret Ninja Training School. This training school is so highly secret that only people who own a pet with a level higher than 250 can enter. Besides that, one must also carry a Red Codestone with them, in order to enter.

At this training school pets who can no longer receive training at the Mystery Island Training School because their pet's level is too high can still receive training. The training is paid for with Red Codestones these can either be bought from other users, or created at Techo Mountain by giving ten original codestones to the volcano.

The Secret Ninja Training School also has a weaponry where you can buy weapons every 30 minutes, and a statue where you can donate neopoints and receive a saying of wisdom back in return.

All of these codestones can be used to pay for the courses:

Neopets Altador Plot Solution and Walkthrough. Welcome to The Daily Neopets' Altador Plot Center! We're your #1 resource for everything in regards to the Altador Plot. (Its official name is the 'Darkest Faerie' but we'll refer to it as the 'Altador Plot' from here on out). The Altador Plot has been out for a while now but is still completable.

The Ninja Training School also gives out Super Bonuses, when this happens your pet increases whatever you were training with two points, rather than just one.

Faerie Quests
Completing faerie quests is a very good way to improve your stats. Quests are in general very cheap and the reward is good! On SunnyNeo's Faerie Quests guide you can read all about how faerie quests work. Below you can see a small summary, but for complete information it is suggested that you read the page on faerie quests. If you complete a quest one of your pets will receive the reward as shown below. Which pet that is, is random.

Faerie	Reward	Item wanted
Air Faerie	2 movement points	Grooming items
Battle Faerie	any 1-3 combinations of 1-6 level, 1-6 strength, 1-2 defence and 1-6 endurance (hitpoints)	Various items
Dark Faerie	2 hitpoints	Toys
Earth Faerie	1-2 strength, 1-2 defence or 1-2 agility (speed) points	Magic items
Fire Faerie	2 strength points	Clothing items
Light Faerie	1 level	Collectable Cards
Water Faerie	2 defence points	Books
Space Faerie	4 levels	Various items
Faerie Queen	1 level, 4 hitpoints and 4 strength points	Various items
Fountain Faerie	Gives you access to the Rainbow Fountain (you can paint your pet there)	Various items with a rarity of 94 or higher

Downside to all this is that getting one of these quests is random. You might go months without receiving a quest. Although if you manage to get ahold of a Faerie Quest Fortune cookie you will be able to get one guaranteed quest per day. Check out out our Fortune Cookie Guide for more info.

Kitchen Quests
Kitchen Quests can also be a good way to train your pet. If you decide to do a quest you will be asked to get 2-4 food items for the chef in order for him to complete his recipe. If you bring him the desired items before time runs out, he will reward you for your effort.

Rewards can be:

- 1 stat for one of your pets, which pet is random, and which stat is also random. This could lead to 1 strength point for your battle pet, or one movement point for your non-battle pet.
- An item, the item could be a cheap (100nps) or expensive (unbuyable), what item it will be is all random.
- Neopoints, you will probably not get a truckload of neopoints, it will be somewhere around 1000nps. Could be a little more or less.

Kitchen Quests are a very good way for training, especially if you have only one pet. That way all stat rewards go to your battle pet. You do have to keep in mind that you should not complete all quests. Set yourself a limit on how much you're willing to spend, like 3,000nps for example.

Coltzan's Shrine
In the Lost Desert one can find Coltzan's Shrine. If your pet approaches the shrine, good old king Coltzan might reward your pet. Your pet can gain a stat or intelligence, you can get neopoints, desert food or a dubloon. You can visit the shrine every 12 hours, and it's completely free. Visiting the shrine every day is definitely worth it.
Secret Laboratory
After collecting the 9 different pieces of the 'Secret Laboratory Map' you will get acces to the Secret Laboratory. In this laboratory various things can happen to your pet:

- Your pet's colour can change (into Purple, Green, Faerie, Maraquan etc.)
- Your pet's gender can change (into male or female)
- Your pet's species can change (into Kiko, Kougra, Ruki, Zafara etc.)
- Your pet can gain or lose levels (2 levels at a time)
- Your pet can gain or lose strength points (2 or 3 points at a time)
- Your pet can gain or lose defence points (2 or 3 points at a time)

- Nothing happens
