Strat worked great, twice, but Achievement for Flyers didn't register, known bug?

Was your team made up of all lvl 25s?

Be warned: thanks to the bug (I would assume!) in the pet system right now, this is one of those tactics that is *VERY* seriously impacted. Whirly will not go through its attack when you swap the Boarfly in, resulting in needing to take an extra turn for your Watcher just to kill it, not to mention other issues with it.

Do *NOT* use the script until the bug is fixed with this strategy; go in manually or use another strat altogether until this bug is fixed, because it *completely* breaks this one. It will (or should!) go back to being a powerhouse when the bug is fixed, but until then, it's unworkable.

This team *can* still work with a little adjusting: do the extra attack with your Watcher and liberally use Blood Drain against Trailblazer. (edited)

This must be based on either RNG or Breed, failed 3 times in a row

wrote on 2021-02-02 00:24:23

Given the rating of the strategy and the fact that I test multiple times before posting a strat, I'll need to see some logs proving this has failed, or a detailed description on how it deviated from the outline of the strategy above.

Nytemayre wrote on 2021-06-19 21:50:36

It doesn't work past round 7 because he does not go undead for at least 1 more round. At the end all the dodges from trailblazer don't line up with your strat because nothing hits right. There is whats wrong, very simple. I tried this 4x and other than the first attempt when I figured out it was absolute garbage I tried to adjust it a bit but still could not survive even until the last pets undead round. I hope that is straightforward enough.

wrote on 2021-06-19 22:40:15

You're still providing no logs. Here's a log showing that, even with only 2 Flurries instead of 3, Whirly goes into his Undead round in Turn 7.

https://imgur.com/a/P0tqOge

Once you can show me logs of the failure, I'll be happy to revisit the strat and adjust as necessary if there's an aspect of RNG I've missed; such as: it might need a breed restriction on the Parasitic Boarfly. As it stands I'll be leaving the strat as you see it, and you might find that people are more amenable to feedback when given in a non-hostile manner. (edited)

Vanixa wrote on 2021-07-05 14:02:50

Logs or no logs, you can just trust that people here are really telling you the truth. I just had the same experience. The strat fails on Turn 7 because you have to do a second Dark Talon to get Whirly to go into his "undead round." And then by the time you get to Trailblazer, he kills you in one hit so you can't pass twice, so then your Seaborne Spore has to live through two rounds of attacks while Trailblazer is using his Dust Cloud. You can't recover from that.

wrote on 2021-07-05 16:42:51

Did I say they weren't telling the truth? No, I did not. I simply said that, given the rating of the strat, I'd need proof from logs. And yes, logs and breeds *do* matter. The Parasitic Boarfly has 7 breeds, and I can't feasibly test them all. What I can do is have someone tell me the breed they used and show me logs that it failed, and I can put a breed restriction on.

As for strats right now, due to the 9.1 bug a lot of strats are being impacted (see front page).

For all other issues, see Gráinne's comment here:

Thank you - this worked fine for me with a grey bloatfly and a Dread Hatchling (Shadow Talon/Call Darkness/Nocturnal Strike) as I didn't have a Watcher
