Sadly this needs to be marked RNG now

rédigé le 2023-01-01 19:06:23

Why? If you have en experience of failure, please specify how it failed. I did a round of Pandaria a couple weeks ago, and I would have used this, since it's my standard strat, and I know it didn't fail, because I would have remembered that.

With this battle, you can get absolutely putrid RNG with ths stuns. It's possible, but very rare. And even so, I don't reall it ever failing. And neither Chrominius' nor Nexus' abilities have veeb nerfed in DF, so if something has actually changed, what is it?

rédigé le 2023-01-05 01:37:30

I had this fail 3 times in a row. I have a HH Chrominius and a PS and PP Nexus. I reran it (PS Nexus) and it did work this time. I will rerun it until I have the same result I did previously so I can describe it better. It is possible it happened on the PP Nexus. This was my go-to until this last expansion, and I had to reinstall mods and set up all my fights, so there is a possibility that my previous non-RNG fights were PP and the failures were PS. I'll keep trying until I can re-create the failure I experienced. (edited)

rédigé le 2023-01-05 02:13:34

Thank you for the response! If it does happen again, please do explain how, but I suspect it will be a 1ong time before the next failure,

rédigé le 2023-01-06 03:28:20

So, long long long story and many times of me canceling the battle before the end, I have figured it out. Dusty gets lucky on moth balls, causing Chrominius to have lower health when Whispertail comes in. Then, IF Wildwinds crits on Chrominius, Chrominus dies. The remaining two pets squeak by with enough health to not die immediately to a PS Nexus Whelping, then manage to kill the Nexus and any poor sad leveling pet sitting nearby.

I cannot imagine how I had this bad luck 3 times in a row, but this last time it DID take me a long time to recreate the bad fight. PP Nexus Whelping did not have the issue, as far as I could tell but my bandages were getting sparse.

So, I retract my RNG statement, but it can happen if you have the worst luck in the ENTIRE world.

(edit to add: thanks for this! I've never rooted for my pets to fail before but now I can come back to this strat with my PP Nexus for a little extra insurance) (edited)

rédigé le 2023-01-06 05:46:46

Thanks for the reply. Also, congratulations! you've just taken your first steps towards analysing a battle. :)

Crits are a 5% chance. 1/20. A great many strats are vulnerable to two crits in the wrong place. This amounts to something like a 1-in-400 event (though complicated by the specifics of the battle). Not something any individual sees often. But players overall do tens of thousands - maybe hundreds of thousands - of battles per day, so every so often someone who has never seen a failure hits one, and thinks that something has gone wrong or changed with a strat. And posts that opinion here. :P

The lesson to take away is that RNG is EVERYWHERE. You just don't see the worst of it much personally. :)

CharlyCat rédigé le 2023-01-03 17:24:47

Works every time, tho if Chromie gets put to sleep, I do start over.

rédigé le 2023-01-03 18:02:49

There is no need to restart, in my experience. Chrominius is a huge lake of health, and especially with the heals survives plenty well.

CharlyCat rédigé le 2023-01-04 16:11:29

You’re right. I let it run just now and I just had to concentrate more. LOL. Still worked fine. :)

I just cant get this to work. Constantly puts Chromious to sleep. So 2 weeks later of it not working without 3 or 4 tries. I am now using Stormbourne whelmpling and NExus whelpling. Tail sweep, Arcane storm, Mana surge, for both. I can skip Arcane Storm on Nexus and straight to Mana surge. Has worked for 3 days so far. Not sure what is the problem and why Chromious is getting hit with sleep so much .

This almost worked too well for me, if I had not manually swapped in my level pet Chrominius would have soloed the fight as I got lucky with Moth Dust and Moth Balls. Maybe add a line to the TD script to just pass if Chrominius is still alive when only one enemy pet is left.

In 9.1 it appears they have nerfed Chrominus's abilities. You can no longer attack during Dusty's blackout'd sequence. I'm not sure what can be done for this, or if anyone else has had better luck with this and can offer suggestions.

If Chrominus can't finish off Dusty because of too many successful stuns, restart unless your level pet is good against the Pandaren Air Spirit.

This is still soloable with Emerald Proto-Whelp (2 2 2). One of the best fight if You want to lvl up 2 lowlvl pets! ;)

Might be useful information for people who do not have a [Nexus Whelpling]

Hyattmeister

rédigé le 2018-09-25 11:02:41

True, but the Azure Whelpling is little bit more rare and harder to come by I would think.

Ilyssa rédigé le 2017-11-19 06:53:53

I altered this strategy a bit. My team is:

- Leveling pet (min level 15)
- Chrominius (2, 2, 2)
- Darkmoon Zeppelin (1, 2, 1)

I start off with the leveling pet, which will get stunned. Then I swap in Chrominius, who kills the first two pets: the first one with Arcane Explosion and the second one swiftly with Surge of Power. After Chrominius is killed, Darkmoon Zeppelin quickly finishes off the last one with Thunderbolt and Explosion. The leveling pet will get all the experience.

TD script:

change(#2) [round>1]
ability(Surge of Power) [enemy(#2).active & enemy.hp<=740]
if [ enemy(#3).active & enemy.hp<=618 ]
change(3#)
ability(Explode)
endif
ability(Ancient Blessing)
ability(Thunderbolt)
ability(#1)
standby
change(#3)

Eekwibble

rédigé le 2018-03-12 10:39:19

There's no point putting the pet in first if you're using Explode. You can easily out-heal Dusty's damage early on, even with a stun. It's if it stuns you twice later on that you can be forced to reset.
With that in mind, I took the liberty of rewriting your script with the carry pet in slot 3.

quit [ self(#1).dead & enemy(#1).active ]
quit [ self(#1).dead & enemy(#2).active ]
standby [ self.aura(Asleep:498).exists ]
ability(#2) [ enemy(#1).active ]
ability(#1) [ enemy(#1).active ]
ability(#3) [ enemy(#2).hp<741 ]
ability(#3) [ enemy(#3).active ]
ability(#2)
ability(#1)
change(#2)

This is my fav strat for this so far. and the TD scrip compensates well for Chromy being put to sleep if it happens. which it can. Very nice ty. =)

Slightly bulkier but more reasoned script:

ability(Ancient Blessing:611) [ enemy(#1).active ]
ability(Surge of Power:593) [ enemy(#2).active ]
ability(Arcane Explosion:299)
ability(Explode:282) [ enemy.hp<669 ]
ability(Thunderbolt:779)
change(#2) [ self(#1).dead ]
standby

Hobbyhorse rédigé le 2017-06-30 11:10:30

I did put Chrominius in slot 1 and a level 1 pet in slot 2. It works great.
I did do the suggestion abow. Please comment if this did not work for you!
Btw. Chrominus get stunned 3 times.

Chrominius - Level 1 Pet - Nexus Whelpling

This strat and TD Script should be modified to reflect the changes Hobbyhorse has made. They make this pet comp far more useful for pet leveling and removes any risk your leveling pet might die.

Done! Thank you :)

Licentious rédigé le 2017-08-18 12:17:09

Why pass on the first 2 turns with the modified strat? It doesn't seem necessary. Thanks for updating it to use a level 1, though!

rédigé le 2017-08-21 10:10:59

Good point, I fixed that, thank you!

Hobbyhorse

rédigé le 2017-12-05 16:41:50

The Pass is from the old strategy where leveling up pet did stand in slot 1.
New strategy is not uptodate.

Turns 1+ : Ancient Blessing on cooldowns else Arcane Explosion to until Chrominius dies.
Pass if you are stunned.
Rest as suggested above.

rédigé le 2017-12-06 03:14:31

Fixed!

Optimusbeef rédigé le 2017-11-15 18:22:35

You can use the Stormborne Whelpling if you don't have a Nexus Whelpling. It has Mana Surge and Arcane Storm. The main strat with a level 1 in the middle slot and the Stormborne Whelpling worked perfectly the first time.

Anonymous rédigé le 2017-10-13 12:15:05

Very much depends on how often you get sleeped and how often he hits you with Moth Balls. If you get sleeped 3 times, you're fucked

Need to add in standby [self(Chrominius).aura(Asleep).exists] after the change(#3) line just in case Chrominius is stunned. Otherwise thanks for the script :)

ßenehime rédigé le 2017-06-12 03:15:17

It shouldn't need that standby, because he has the standby command at the end, and that will only be used if he cant use the other move, which only happens if it is asleep. So it works fine.

Hobbyhorse rédigé le 2017-06-18 08:29:14

For those who want to learn, this is another way to write TD Script for this pet battle.

standby [ round = 1 ]
change(#2)
standby [ self.aura(Asleep).exists ]
ability(Arcane Storm)
ability(#2)
ability(Arcane Explosion)
change(#3)

Hobbyhorse rédigé le 2017-06-27 16:53:14

If you use tdBattlePetScript - Script Editor, it now has an AutoComplete

ability(Arcane Explosion:299)
change(#3)

Hey everyone!
Thanks for the feedback. There were indeed too many random factors in this strategy. I changed it around while using the same pets. You can only bring a level 10 or older pet along with this one, but the strategy is now completely risk free :-)

Susie rédigé le 2016-11-04 10:30:38

If your levelling pet is mechanical, you can bring a level 1. they only get hit once :)

Tim rédigé le 2016-11-04 19:18:37

Can also use a magic pet.

Muqaddisa rédigé le 2017-01-08 07:29:47

Level 10 Spawn of G'nathus got one shot on my first try, so it's a bit of an RNG if you have an aquatic in the leveling spot.

Tyrsa rédigé le 2017-05-20 13:10:39

I've been successful with a level 6 level pet. Just need ~400 hp, and you'll know right away if it survives so not a huge deal to restart if the level pet dies.

Anonymous rédigé le 2016-11-28 03:14:20

Personally, use 2 x Nexus Whelp w/ 1/2/2, a bit of flexibility on turn counts, but much faster finish, nexus whelp + stormborne whelp would also work

I've tried five times in a row already...and doesn't work. Kept getting stunned on first rounds...then I would resign and start over. The other times, Chrom would always die before getting to Surge.

Marabela rédigé le 2016-02-19 19:00:14

Had quite a bit of trouble today with this myself, previously no trouble at all (but I lvled always lvl 1 pets onwards). I tried at least 5 or 6 rounds and my chrominius always died before he could cast either bite or surge of power on the spirit. I had a lvl18 pet as the "lvl pet". But then I switched to lvl 1 pet, and the fight went well, even my whelpling was alive.
P.s. Awesome guides and page ^,^ Thank you for everything.

Fittstim rédigé le 2016-02-16 03:18:11

This strat doesn't work for me. I tried it three times in a row and Chrominius always dies before the "Bite" (turn four vs Pandaren Air Spirit). I would also suggest not wasting the Mana Surge on Turn two vs Dusty since Dusty always is in a cocoon. Use Tail Sweep and follow up with Mana Surge on Turn three.

Hyasur rédigé le 2018-08-04 04:16:16

In der ersten Runde würd ich stets Arkane Explosion auswählen, damit dann in der 2. Runde uralter Segen passend zum Kokon-Schlag von Staubi gewählt wird - Arkane Explosion würde dort ohnehin nicht "treffen". Macht den Kampf ingesamt etwas kürzer.
