5	quake1984	You will want your chitterspine to be a higher speed than 298. I used the p/s in the end. I tried the s/s at first but then switch to the 299 speed.

This strategy is from Wowhead (Anistasia).

The breeds I used are (it might matter)
Sandyback Crawler (P/P seemed better than my S/B)
Glimmershell Scuttler (H/B)
Palamanter (H/S)

There is still some RNG involved in killing off the first two pets quickly enough and the number of hits Dustie can get in, not to mention some RNG being introduced by Sandstorm.

Worked on the 3rd try, which is impressive given the difficulty of this fight. Thanks for the great strat!

Why is this not listed as the number 1 Strat?? The one listed as 1 kept failing and was clear to me that it was unlikely to even come close. (edited)

After I bought the Crimson Octopode and leveled all 3 pets, and tried 5 times the RNG gods finally had mercy on me. Thanks for the strat, it's the only one I get to work.
