You should be able to beat him with the 125 boost and that much HP, for sure. Here is the strategy I used to kill him:

Turn 1: Freezer, Double Dryer, Defend (start over if he half-kills you or if you do not freeze)
Turn 2: Your best bomb (Honey Potion is great) plus a good one-use bomb like Water Muffin, plus Berserk
Turn 3: Good one-use bomb, Dryer, Burrow
Turn 4: Main attacker, Dryer, Sink

If your main attacker does enough icons (I'd say around 13), you can use it instead of a bomb. Water muffin does a great full 15 icons, though. The Double Dryer is a huge help (it reflects half his air) and is very cheap.

Having a HUGE dilemma

I have to take a decision before it's too late:
At the moment, my pet has these 2 multiple attack weapons -

Ramtors Spellbook (5 dark, 5 light) - sells for 750k
Royal Wedding Ring (5 fire, 3 dark, 1-3 physical) - sells for 800k

Now, I have 1.7m in the bank and I look at these weapons:

Air Faerie Crown (3 air, 3 dark, 3 light, blocks 5 light) - sells for 1.6m
Ring of the Lost (5 fire, 5 light, blocks all dark) - sells for roughly 4m

Now, I thought about replacing both of my current weapons with the last two, but I'm not sure whether it's the right thing to do. Doing so will require me to save about 2.35m more neopoints, and that's a pretty big risk.

What do you say?

Could you post the stats of your pet, and if you play 1-player or 2-player? Also, please tell whether or not you will continue to train your defense in the future. Posting the rest of your items in your set would help too.

Of course:

HP - 123
Strength - 98
Defence - 89

This is a lab pet, so I don't really believe that defence is going to skyrocket.

I play 1-player most of the time. Very rarely 2-player... but my main goal is to have a strong pet for any upcoming war.

Rest of the set:
Honey Potion, H4000 Helmet, Leaf Shield, Downsize!, Green Scorchstone.

Thank you!

I need help on a battle set. I have a ring of the lost, h4k, royal wedding ring and battle duck. Those are my main weapons. What else should I get? I'm mainly thinking of the next war and one player battles

Since the Dusty Magic Broom and Air Faeries Crown both depend on defence to be used effectively, I'd advise you to just get the ramtors spellbook and royal wedding ring instead. With the remaining NP, I'd advise you to start saving up so you can upgrade them later.

This isn't directly connected to your post, but toss the leaf shield and get a patched magic hat, in your level of battle light is much more common than water.

Thanks, but don't you think that 10 dark icons is way too much? I mean, I need some variety after all....

About the shield - thanks, I think i'll use your advice :)

i have a budget of 2 million

My weopon set is

Florbix Blaster
Halo of Devilpuss
(need a freezer)
(need a healer)
Leaf Shield(would like to improve)
35 radioactive muffins
scarab ring
obsidian dagger
scarad stone slingshot

i was thinking of the honey potion as a weapon, it is mainly the shield i would like to improve.

my stats are at the moment under lab ray and i am going to get to level 50 to get bezerk(also have sink and burrow and all other abilities)

all other stats will be at 60 soon and health 100

Shield - well, there aren't any great shields out there for this budget. If you really want an upgrade, then go for Patched Magic Hat, a little bit better than Leaf Shield nowadays.
If you really want some useful defence and you train defence, then go for dual duty weapons. If you like this idea, just tell me and I'll tell you my recommendations.

Healer - go for Blue Scorchstone (30hp I think) if you're a massive BDer. If you just wanna win a specific fight or two (and after looking at your muffin stocks, you seem like that), you can always go for Greater Healing Scroll (about 20k), which is fragile but heals to full hp.
up to you.

Freezer - Again: Scroll of Freezing is parallel to the Greater Healing Scroll in this case (fragile but 100% freeze). If you don't wanna mess with buying a new one every now and then, you can just rely on the Frost Cannons (green is nice). No non-fragile 100% freezing for under 2m... sorry. You can always just save for H4000 Helmet.

Another advice - you have 5 (!) attacking weapons, among them none is special or super-strong. My advice for your 8 slots: 2 attack weapons, 1 bomb, 1 healer, 1 freezer, 1 shield, 1 for your muffins. that leaves you with one open slot, which you may use for another attacking weapon or Downsize! which is very useful (once per battle, blocks half icons).
So indeed, Honey Potion fits into the bomb slot great. Healer and freezer we've already discussed. One use weapons slot is also full. You already have a shield - that leaves you with 2-3 free attacking weapon slots.

That's only my advice, anyway.
