I just managed to limp through with my 3rd pet after Shadowlands pre-patch hit live.

I had to do a few extra Leaps, but other than that I never needed my third pet.

I just tried this on the 9.0 PTR with the expected Shadowlands changes. I did not do numbers, not least because it's awkward without the addon.

The strat still worked fine. The first P/P Anklerender brought hum to Failsafe, after which it was almost over.

You can solo Unit 17 with Ikky

If not neccessarily solo, but he was already resurrected when my Ikky died. So almost solo. Great suggestion.

I tried this a few times and failed, all three pets died. I went with a Foulfeather, Lil Bling, and Ikky, and Foulfeather solo'd the lil jerk.

tried several times my anklerenderer was P/B and it failed 4 times in a row so i swapped it out for my anklerenderer that was P/S breed and it worked perfect. i would advise the first pet have the extra speed.

Mine is P/P, so no speed here. Since slot #3 is open, a third raptor isn't out of the question.

So I tried with a P/B, and also failed the first time - specifically because a Block happened in Round 5, when Unit 17 had Crouch but no Decoy up that I don't understand. I know about Crouch adding 50% to 50% in some old cases, but the odd thing is that it didn't happen one round, and did in the next, under the same conditions.

I did succeed the second time, still using the P/B. I did log the battle, and I'll go back to check it out further, and add what information I can, later.

I can confirm what DragonAfterDark says about the speed. The P/S speed should not make a difference here. But AFAICS, two different things happened under the same conditions, and unless I missed something - quite possible, ofc - that should not happen.

First, I now realise that Shattered Defenses is the difference. Doh!

OK, I've gone back for a quick test.

With a P/P (without crits), Hunting Party does 3*108 + 3*406, and then Leap does 518 with Shattered Defenses still up. And that Leap brings Unit 17 to zero, and Failsafe.

With a P/B (without crits) Hunting Party does 3*97 + 3*365, and then Leap does 467 with Shattered Defenses still up. Unit 17 is still hanging on, Shattered Defenses is gone, and Decoy is about to go up, which throws the sequence off.

So I think you need a P/P in the first slot to guarantee success with this one. You might get a lucky crit, ofc, on a P/S or P/B, but that's not guaranteed.

I have saved logs if needed, but I think the conditions are easily enough reproduced.

I'm at the airport checking these at the moment, can you message me with the fight name so I don't forget which one it is? I'll make adjustments once I'm settled tonight:)

Will do, on Discord.

P.S. You do realise that checking on the success rates of your strats AT THE AIRPORT is above and beyond the call of duty, I hope? :)
