Christoph Vonfeasel Challenge - any level pet carry

[Q8e192]

Beat Christoph Vonfeasel with ANY Level1 pet carry (i.e. fyi some Level1 pets may have < 150hp)

[Gráinne]

The lowest-health pet possible is, I think, a Grey level 1 [pet]Cheetah Cub[/pet], which has 130 HP.

That shouldn't be too hard, providing we can use the full range of pets, and not just the common ones that guide writers limit themselves to for widely shared strategies. However, DMF is just over, so it will have to wait for next month.

[Q8e192]

Yeah, I saw the fox + iron starlette + level1 (with > 160hp) soln on a few sites ... too common of a strat.
So the extra challenge is to make your carry any level1 pet. And yes, post your soln next month. My soln is a bit convoluted, so would like to see yours when you have one.

[Drlambda]

Pretty sure that the common strat will work with a H/H Starlette, considering by how much i'm overkilling the second and third pet with a H/P. You basically just have to take 160 - 560(?) extra damage on the Starlette. Might depend on the Fjord Worg Pup killing the first pet the round the second Whirlpool hits though, because otherwise the second pet will deal more damage to the Starlette.

I'll try out something else next month though, i'll let you know if i can get anything working.

[Q8e192]

Will your strat, Enchanted Broom + Lil XT , work with all Level1 pets?

[Paladance]

I've been trying to reshape this ([pet]Hyjal Wisp[/pet]/[pet]Iron Starlette[/pet]) Xu-fu's strat (the text is skewed in the middle). Basically you can still make it to the end provided that you know what are you doing without sticking to bare contents.
I've also proposed a custom approach (looks a bit counter-intuitive, but just looks) that goes from the round 3

Code: Select all

W, ABx2, E, ABx2, W, ABx5, W, E, AB until death

but as the Faire is no longer here, I'm not sure what can be done right now?

[Q8e192]

Enchanted Broom (2/2/2)
Lil'XT (1/2/2)
Level 1 carry pet

14 rounds

Round1: Sweep

Round3: Heartbroken
Rounds4-6: Tympanic Tantrum
Round7: Zap
Round8: Swap to carry pet
Round9: Swap back to XT
*XT dies*
Bring your Broom out
Round10: Wind-up
Rounds11-13: Batter x3

[done]

Sounds viable. I'll try it next time Christoph comes up

[Khorah]

^-- This is the strategy I have been using almost since he was introduced. It is solid.
I dont know as I have ever lost unless I did something really stupid

The main trick is to take out Mr Pointy before he drops that shield of his

[Q8e192]

Anyone with any other solns or a soln that can be done in less rounds (14)?

[Flohsakk]

Maybe I don't exactly understand the challenge, but I'm still using my old team/strat with single breed pets, slightly changed for the damage nerf of undead passive (effects the second Bonestorm), but still working... (and yes enemy crits usually wreck this strategy)

Team:

1. Fossilized Hatchling ( Bone Bite , Death and Decay , BONESTORM )
2. Carry Pet ( Level 1)
3. Mechanical Squirrel ( Metal Fist , Extra Plating , Wind-Up )

Strategy:

Bone Bite
Death and Decay (1st hit on bubble)
BONESTORM (2nd hit on bubble, damage to backline)
Bone Bite
Bone Bite
Bone Bite (without crits Fozz. Hatchling will trigger Damned here)
BONESTORM (Hatchling dies, maybe Syd dies)

Choose Level Pet
Swap Mechanical Squirrel

(Metal Fist if Syd didn't die yet)
Extra Plating
Wind-Up
Metal Fist until Mr. Pointy has no shield and <1029 HP
Wind-Up (Mr. Pointy dies, Otte comes in)

Extra Plating
Wind-Up
Metal Fist until Otto has <1029 HP
Wind-Up

Well done. So far the best soln is 14 rounds ... anyone else?
