	Shenk	Adapted the strategy to the Shadowlands changes. Note that I excluded the P/P breed from the raptor. In theory every breed can still work but there is a fair chance that the P/P will kill Ruddy too soon and the strategy won't work as described anymore. You can still do it, but you'd have to adapt yourself.	Breed Script Staff Pick	2	4.9	100%	119	156 2:36	23-24
	DragonsAfterDark	Long, but all pets survive, and no RNG that I can see. I would highly recommend using the script. 2/8/20 -- I've updated the steps & script to ensure that Wanderer will be in for Apoc. Thank you for your feedback :)	Breed Tricky Script	2	4.6	100%	50	300 5:00	48

	Berendain	9.0 Update: Still works just as well. I wrote the TD script first, and I recommend using that if you're able to. I've done my best to translate the TD script into step by instructions that are readable. The basic idea is to use the Nexus Whelpling's Arcane Winds to prevent your pets from being stunned, and its Sear Magic ability to trigger the Magma Trap. This will damage the Nexus Whelpling, but your Nexus Whelpling can take the damage without issue. The Bile Larva will deal with Ruddy, and the Periwinkly Calf will take care of Wanderer. Frill will be last and will be cleaned up by the Periwinkle Calf and, if needed, the Nexus Whelpling as well.	RNG Script	2	4.5	40%	14	190 3:10	28-33

	ghostpets	Fight time: 1:45-2:00 on 16-17 rounds the majority of the time (Strategy A) 2:00-2:15 on 18-20 rounds when stunned on Round 1 (Strategy B) Given the fight, this is actually a pretty fast strategy (16-20 rounds compared to the popular Tricorne+Apocalypse strategy that averages around 20-26 rounds). Although the strategy wall of text below makes it look like a long and daunting fight at first glance, do note that you will only be applying one-half of it to the fight. You can also just use the TD Script for simplicity. Pet Breed Notes: Pet #1 - I have tested PP Nexus Whelpling and PS Stormborne Whelpling breeds. I'm assuming any breed with power > 304 would work fine. If given the choice though, go with the PP Nexus Whelpling with 341 power. Pet #3 - I have done limited testing with different Zandalari breeds, but they all seem to work well so far. If given the choice, go with the PS breed (305 power / 305 speed).

	Nadiv	The fight is very very long (75+ turns), but there is no RNG (always wins) Using script is recommended as it's all priority based. How does it work: The enemy Imp (Frill) is almost harmless to critters. The idea is to keep him as enemy front pet (he uses Fade and next turn you stun the pet you don't want to see and Frill comes back) and to kill enemy backline pets with Pheromones. A fawn provides needed healing. Any fawn type and breed works, but the more power it has, the better it works (best is P/P Gleamhoof Fawn) - more power = more healing = less turns wasted on healing. The strategy works with 1 lovebird, but the script won't work in this case. Pheromones' going to have lower uptime and the bird'll need more healing. The fight is going to last even longer. With 1 lovebird I'd use additional fawn for faster healing.	Tricky Script	2	0.0	100%	1	570 9:30	70+

I highly recommend just using the script. The steps might be a little hard to follow, so I'll explain in more detail here: Frill It's important to note that the Super Sticky Goo debuff must have 2 turns left to stop Fade from swapping. If it only has 1 turn left, Frill will swap out anyways. His Fade casts aren't 100% consistent, so whenever its CD is 1 round or less, you can only cast Super Sticky Goo or you risk getting juked and Frill swapping out. Ruddy You continue to tank with Zoom until the Magma Trap is gone and Clobber has 5 turns of CD left (so you have time to combo with your Unborn Val'kyr and Foulfeather). Sometimes you'll only have to keep Zoom in for the first round and other times you'll have to tank a full Clobber cycle.	Breed RNG Tricky Script	2	0.0	98%	0	225 3:45	36+

with 2nd script me 3rd pet dont use Black Claw on 3rd boss when he come. and on the second boss, my second pet uses the Hunting Party again if the boss hasn't died yet. (this happens if the first Hunting Party was interrupted by the camp, and then this pet will not have time to use Black Claw on the 3rd boss) (edited)

You're welcome to troubleshoot it, but I don't go through every single loss variation on strategies that aren't mine, just the most glaring one that sits with the most losses at the top.

The only reason I post these is because I make them for the Sim for round averages, and I figure why not pass them along. If you'd prefer I didn't on your strategies, I can stop.

	Shenk	Adapted the strategy to the Shadowlands changes. Note that I excluded the P/P breed from the raptor. In theory every breed can still work but there is a fair chance that the P/P will kill Ruddy too soon and the strategy won't work as described anymore. You can still do it, but you'd have to adapt yourself.	Breed Script Staff Pick	2	4.9	100%	119	156 2:36	23-24
	DragonsAfterDark	Long, but all pets survive, and no RNG that I can see. I would highly recommend using the script. 2/8/20 -- I've updated the steps & script to ensure that Wanderer will be in for Apoc. Thank you for your feedback :)	Breed Tricky Script	2	4.6	100%	50	300 5:00	48

	Berendain	9.0 Update: Still works just as well. I wrote the TD script first, and I recommend using that if you're able to. I've done my best to translate the TD script into step by instructions that are readable. The basic idea is to use the Nexus Whelpling's Arcane Winds to prevent your pets from being stunned, and its Sear Magic ability to trigger the Magma Trap. This will damage the Nexus Whelpling, but your Nexus Whelpling can take the damage without issue. The Bile Larva will deal with Ruddy, and the Periwinkly Calf will take care of Wanderer. Frill will be last and will be cleaned up by the Periwinkle Calf and, if needed, the Nexus Whelpling as well.	RNG Script	2	4.5	40%	14	190 3:10	28-33
	Dpaul	I tried one of the strategies here, and failed miserably due to a miss. I found this gem of a strategy on wowhead, posted by a member named Buuloki. It worked flawlessly, and leaves little room for RNG. It is also very simple by comparison. I hope it works as well for you as it did for me! Don't bother counting turns. Prioritize Apocalypse's timer and Sticky Goo as specified. Long? Yes. 1-shot? Yes. (Thanks to ZeroOrDie453#1916 for the TD Script!)	RNG Script	2	4.4	72%	9	290 4:50	40-42

You will easily outheal Ruddy while Sunfire whittles away the enemies backline pets. Once they are dead, swap to your apocalypse pet, cast it and swap back to your healing pets and just continue tanking.

	ghostpets	Fight time: 1:45-2:00 on 16-17 rounds the majority of the time (Strategy A) 2:00-2:15 on 18-20 rounds when stunned on Round 1 (Strategy B) Given the fight, this is actually a pretty fast strategy (16-20 rounds compared to the popular Tricorne+Apocalypse strategy that averages around 20-26 rounds). Although the strategy wall of text below makes it look like a long and daunting fight at first glance, do note that you will only be applying one-half of it to the fight. You can also just use the TD Script for simplicity. Pet Breed Notes: Pet #1 - I have tested PP Nexus Whelpling and PS Stormborne Whelpling breeds. I'm assuming any breed with power > 304 would work fine. If given the choice though, go with the PP Nexus Whelpling with 341 power. Pet #3 - I have done limited testing with different Zandalari breeds, but they all seem to work well so far. If given the choice, go with the PS breed (305 power / 305 speed).

Any Pet	loller#2712	This strategy is more boring than your typical office meeting, but it works and saves pets, as none of your pets will come close to dying. WARNING THIS IS STUPIDLY LONG (135 TURNS) YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED THANKS Truthfulness for TD Script	Script	2	4.1	0%	7	900 15:00	100+
	Nadiv	The fight is very very long (75+ turns), but there is no RNG (always wins) Using script is recommended as it's all priority based. How does it work: The enemy Imp (Frill) is almost harmless to critters. The idea is to keep him as enemy front pet (he uses Fade and next turn you stun the pet you don't want to see and Frill comes back) and to kill enemy backline pets with Pheromones. A fawn provides needed healing. Any fawn type and breed works, but the more power it has, the better it works (best is P/P Gleamhoof Fawn) - more power = more healing = less turns wasted on healing. The strategy works with 1 lovebird, but the script won't work in this case. Pheromones' going to have lower uptime and the bird'll need more healing. The fight is going to last even longer. With 1 lovebird I'd use additional fawn for faster healing.	Tricky Script	2	0.0	100%	1	570 9:30	70+
	WhyDaRumGone	Another WIP: <1% chance this fails. ~1% chance this goes to 19/20 rounds. Health breed for your #1 pet recommend My UC Cockroach I used was Uncommon Other breed #2/3 work but not consistent.	Breed Script	2	5.0	100%	3	107 1:47	16

	Wiff	This is a Beast AoE team built to take advantage of the humanoid's low damage and decimate the backline. The Flying pet may be anything capable of stunning or sleeping the imp to deny it an action. The goal is get the anubisath swapped in so that the Pyreclaw can hit the backline while Zao keeps it healed.	Script	2	2.3	85%	3	295 4:55	46+

	Squirl	Usually wins around round 41. Only fails if Foulfeather gets crit and top-ended by Crush. Both breeds of Unborn Val'kyr work, but H/H basically can't fail to crits while B/B sometimes can. I highly recommend just using the script. The steps might be a little hard to follow, so I'll explain in more detail here: Frill It's important to note that the Super Sticky Goo debuff must have 2 turns left to stop Fade from swapping. If it only has 1 turn left, Frill will swap out anyways. His Fade casts aren't 100% consistent, so whenever its CD is 1 round or less, you can only cast Super Sticky Goo or you risk getting juked and Frill swapping out. Ruddy You continue to tank with Zoom until the Magma Trap is gone and Clobber has 5 turns of CD left (so you have time to combo with your Unborn Val'kyr and Foulfeather). Sometimes you'll only have to keep Zoom in for the first round and other times you'll have to tank a full Clobber cycle.	Breed RNG Tricky Script	2	0.0	98%	0	225 3:45	36+
	Angelich	I tested it manually on PetSim but I couldn't make the correct script because something went wrong after the Hunting Party on round 21 then the automatic simulation fails.	Breed	2	0.0	N/A	0	220 3:40	31+
