In most cases, you won't even need Chrominius, but if Moth Dust puts Nexus Whelpling to sleep on Turn 1, you'll need him to clean up. If you would prefer to restart if Sleep hits, replace the "change" command at the top of your TD Script with the following: quit [self.aura(Asleep:498).exists] Changelog 5/13/21: Posted some refinements to the TD script including a line to additionally cast "Arcane Storm" if "Toxic Fumes" is usable.

If this happens, bring in your Dread Hatchling to kill the wasp with Call Darkness > Nocturnal Strike > Shadow Talon.

Simple magic dragon setup.

Due to identical ability loadouts, Nexus Whelpling and Stormborne Whelpling are interchangeable.

In most cases, you won't even need Chrominius, but if Moth Dust puts Nexus Whelpling to sleep on Turn 1, you'll need him to clean up.

If you would prefer to restart if Sleep hits, replace the "change" command at the top of your TD Script with the following:

quit [self.aura(Asleep:498).exists]

Changelog 5/13/21: Posted some refinements to the TD script including a line to additionally cast "Arcane Storm" if "Toxic Fumes" is usable. Also reformed the strat into a priority list. Thanks to DragonsAfterDark for the suggestion.

Substitutes:

Note: You have selected a substitute pet.

The substitute finder looks for these criteria in relation to the original pet:

Same family

Has the required skills

Has the required stats (if specified)

Ignores specific breed requirements for the main pet, as breeds can be very different for substitutes

1 / 4

1
1

Low XP

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 25+

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

This strategy keeps failing for me, Turn 5 doesn't get off the ground as Needlenose speed 498 exceeds Nexus Whelping's speed

I use https://www.wow-petguide.com/Strategy/9383/Airborne_Defense_Force which is very similar. It's certainly possible for the Nexus to die in round 5, if it was stunned in round 1, and the battle still be winnable, at least with Chrominius as a third pet..

What breed of Nexus are you using?

The third pet here is misleading. It's specified as any Magic pet, but the intention isany pet with Magic damage.

If you have a Chrominius, try it in the third slot. If you don't, consider getting one - it's one of the Most Used Pets https://www.wow-petguide.com/Guide/58/Most_Used_Pets so it will be a good investment!

Nexus Whelpling is PB. Round 1 enemy causes 260-529 damage (tooltip says 353-529) ignoring any attempts that put Nexus Whelpling to sleep (I've been forfeiting those matches, healing and restarting)

When that damage is at the higher end, Nexus Whelpling dies in Round 4, so I don't even get to fire the second Arcane Storm
When that round 1 damage is at the lower end, I can select Arcane Storm in Round 5, but my speed is lower than Needlenose's 498 so he goes first. Nexus Whelpling health is always below 500 at this point, and so when the enemy fires off an attack, the 514 kills Nexus Whelpling.

	Morell#1795	Simple magic dragon setup. Due to identical ability loadouts, Nexus Whelpling and Stormborne Whelpling are interchangeable. In most cases, you won't even need Chrominius, but if Moth Dust puts Nexus Whelpling to sleep on Turn 1, you'll need him to clean up. If you would prefer to restart if Sleep hits, replace the "change" command at the top of your TD Script with the following: quit [self.aura(Asleep:498).exists] Changelog 5/13/21: Posted some refinements to the TD script including a line to additionally cast "Arcane Storm" if "Toxic Fumes" is usable.

	Aynessa	Despite the RNG of the moth, this strategy has never failed me - even when put to sleep twice! However, if you do get put to sleep twice, the steps taken will need to be altered slightly - Dream Whelpling can still kill the moth even when put to sleep twice, but will die to the wasp before you can use any attacks. If this happens, bring in your Dread Hatchling to kill the wasp with Call Darkness > Nocturnal Strike > Shadow Talon. Then continue with the remaining steps of the normal strategy (Arcane Storm > Surge of Power) to annihilate the last enemy pet.	Shop	2	0.0	N/A	1	150 2:30	19+

	Lazey	Only had H/P Muck Slug, couldn't test other breeds vs. Moth Balls RNG. With this critter, I avoid being put to sleep, but there's still a chance for an early death to multiple critical Moth Balls or zero of them missing. Fight will take 11 rounds if Needlenose's Toxic Fumes doesn't kill Muck Slug because most of the Moth Balls missed..	Script	2	0.0	95%	0	84 1:24	10-11

	Tumblebuck	My first strategy and script, might be a little messy! Adapted from others that use Chrominius/Whelps, but with a 3rd pet I had. Wins consistently for me in testing, even if Star Tail's Moth Dust sleep connects on turn 1. Tested only using a rare P/S Wild Etherwyrm; results may vary with other types.
