No fights BfA and onward are worth using for leveling. No shade to making leveling strats for the fights, but Blizzard nerfed the xp values into the dirt when they made the enemies available 24/7 in BfA and onward.

Yeah exactly. I used to make all leveling pet starts as people seemed to really enjoy them but my general rule of thumb is only ones that give roughly 1k xp (single enemies normally) and if it doesnt add to much time. Otherwise it's really not worth it :-p

It works fine but the way it is written is decidedly non-standard. For example: Iron Starlette- why is it written that Priority 1 is Explode IF Toxic Smoke has been used first?? Surely that's actually Priority 1 - Toxic Smoke, Priority 2 Explode? Likewise the instructions for the first pet are also sort of written backwards in the same way. (edited)

(OP) WhyDaRumGone

wrote on 2024-09-20 04:09:46

If I went Priority 1 toxic smoke I would have to put a caveat that it must hit hence I would have to write.
I would also have to then change the order of Armageddon to make it after FB / RT.

From a strat creator point of view I like to highlight what's needed to Explode rather than making Explode the default as someone could interpret using toxic smoke and Explode whether it hits or not.

But all of the abilities you're talking about are 100% hit chance. I still think the way it's written is ass backwards!

I agree with the others, this is really poorly written. The strat works, it's great, but the instructions are backwards.

(OP) WhyDaRumGone

wrote on 2024-09-24 08:27:51

Having it the other way could create a situation where people follow the steps blindly.With it being at the top, it ensures they have to read what is the highest priority so they know as soon as the debuffs are applied to use Armageddon.
Around the other way, if they don't read the caveats, they'll use it turn 3 no matter what, when it might be needed turn 4 but everyone understands not to use it turn 1.
Either way the correct information is shown whether you like the order or not but I prefer it this way for the reasons above.
It's also how scripts are read, with highest priority being top and working down to default moves unless there is a set steps but unfortunately the Hungry Worm can dodge, so can't use set steps.

Anyway, it's the way I like it so feel free to change the notes to however you like. You can even post what you wrote here against this comment and if others like it they can copy them :) (edited)

You don't seem to want to accept that it's not logical the way it's written and nothing anyone says will change your mind.

The Prio is not to Armageddon, that's the issue, that's why it reads so badly. Like Yoda wrote the instructions. The priority is to apply Razor talons and get a flame breath on the target.

You don't seem to get that I will not change it and like it this way. Your more than welcome to come up with your own strats and write them however you like but again I will not be changing it!
Note: The priority is Armageddon WHEN the buffs are applied!

Facetious#1105

wrote on 2024-09-20 22:30:32

This... is written very confusingly. The way I did it, upon reading, was:

1. Bring out Timeless Mechanical Dragon
2. Use Flame Breathe
3. Use Razor Talons
4. Use Armageddon
5. Bring out Iron Starlette
6. Use Toxic Smoke
7. Explode - Zaedu dies at end of turn from dots

The use of 'priorities' here is confusing. We don't immediately press Armageddon / Explode, we wait until we've pressed the other moves first. Therefore, it is not a priority - it is the end goal. When we say priority in this game, it's in the sense of which DPS / etc move to use when there's multiple available. Therefore 'priority' doesn't make a lot of sense here. Thank you for the strategy, but I will need to replace your notes with my own.
