Breed

At least one of the pets for this strategy require the use of a specific breed.

RNG

Not every strategy can be bullet proof. This is one of them. You might have to restart it, since there are some random elements that increase the risk of your pets failing. Don't blame them, please!

TCG

This strategy is using pets obtainable from the Wow Trading Card Game (TCG) or the auction house for potentially high sums of gold.

Shop

This strategy is using pets obtainable only from the WoW In-Game Shop for Battle.net Balance or real money.

Level 1+

You can use this strategy to carry a low level pet to give it experience.

Tricky

Some instructions are more difficult to follow than others. That's exactly what you might find in this strategy!

Script

The strategy offers a Script that can be used with the Pet Battle Script addon. You can copy the script by clicking on the button to the left of the pets.

Unobtainable

At least one pet in the strategy cannot be obtained anymore. If you have it, congrats!

Not a 100% strategy with MPD. I got a fight against Skitterer Xi'a with 1801/450/375.
1) MPD will die on the 3rd turn if Skitterer uses, for example, Flurry(x3) + Any ability + Flurry(x3). Or Skitter/WaterJet (crit) + Any ability + Flurry(x3).
2) Flyby + Thunderbolt + 2xExplode = only 1760 dmg. (edited)

1)
Yeah I do agree that if MPD were to die that it would fail. Looking at the numbers you are correct though I have run it 30+ times without a failure.
It's been a while since I created this and have to presume I never saw a double triple event (Can't remember if moves were static or random) but presuming its random and in your scenarios below:

* (235 I 235 I 235) = 705 + 470 + (235 [MPD mech trait activates] I 235 [lives] I 235 [dies])
* 705 (Crit) + 470 + (235 [MPD mech trait activates] I 235 [lives] I 235 [dies])

To combat this you can use Darkmoon Zeppelin (above 1410HP)

* (235 I 235 I 235) = 705 + 470 + (235 I 235 [DMZ mech trait activates] I 235 [lives subject to a crit])
* 705 (Crit) + 470 + (235 I 235 [DMZ mech trait activates] I 235 [lives subject to a crit])

OR just restart and likely get the W :p
In light of this feedback, I have changed it from MPD to DMZ and ~~have added a note about the RNG element for alternative pet~~ removed MPD as an alternative, thank you :)

2)
MPD Total = ~~1833~~ 1760
* Flyby + Type Bonus = 111
* Thunderbolt + ~~Shattered~~ Weakened = 399
* Explode = 560
* Explode = ~~630~~ (690 ~~but Capped~~, ~~presuming~~ elite ~~boss~~ buff)

DMZ Total = ~~1884~~ 1812
* Flyby + Type Bonus = 109
* Thunderbolt + ~~Shattered~~ Weakened = 395
* Explode = 618
* Explode = ~~630~~ (690 ~~but Capped~~, ~~presuming~~ elite ~~boss~~ buff)

Added the type bonus line / Changed figures -- (edited)

MPD's Thunderbolt deals only 399 damage:
532 base dmg * (100% - 50% elite buff + 25% weakened defenses by Flyby).

You are correct friend. I had Shattered selected in the calculator. The HP difference might be from the stealth buff they did to some of these strats. I had a few I had to edit around Jan. I presumed this one was still working cause no complains recently :p

I've changed it up using your feedback. Thanks again.
