Based on the strategy from Emmastoned here. I was having some problems with it, so I've tweaked it until it worked flawlessly for me.

Updated TD Script. Thanks, Kylmyys#2878 (though it doesn't seem to work every time, so I'm waiting for an even better one).

Only the most relentless of pets remained with the Wastewalker. That is because he always tries to Shu them away.

Failed 2 days in a row in 9.2.5, switch Chrominicus with Bloodgazer Hatchling, Falcosaur Swarm and a Savage Talon beat Crusher. Too long a strat to waste the pet treats in a fail.

I think what you meant was "thank you". The comment was that the SCRIPT didn't work, not that the strat was didn't work and they very kindly put up the corrected script. With xxx kisses no less.

wrote on 2021-08-27 12:30:21

I'm not good with TD Scripts, so I can't say what exactly is wrong, but if Mutilator is dead and Crusher's HP is higher than 1349, Chrominius casts howl before the HP condition is met, ruining the fight.

Tried multiple times but it failed each time. Staff pick strat worked the first time.

I tested this just a month ago. It worked fine, and worked fine on the 9.0 PTR as well.

I suspect in this case you miscounted the turns; it's easy to do with this one.

There are several people who investigate reports of problems with strategies on Xu-Fu's. There are designated Strategy Curators, and other regulars who read comments and are interested in the latest.

In my experience, when people leave a short "It didn't work" note, they usually made a mistake. Maybe they used a pet with the wrong Speed, maybe they didn't do a Pass where it was indicated, sometimes they were even using the team and strat from a completely different battle. :)

Sometimes there genuinely is a problem with the strat. This is where the Curators and others come in, checking the strat for weaknesses, and fixing it or removing it if it can't be fixed.

Since most failure reports with no details are wrong, it's not good to waste people's time investigating them. Instead, help them by providing the information they need.

If the strat failed for you, and you want your comment to be taken seriously:

1. Specify EXACTLY which species and breeds you used.

2. Specify whether you read the strategy from the site and executed it manually, or downloaded and used the tdScript.

3. Specify EXACTLY where the first unexpected thing happened, the first thing that deviated from what the strat predicts. What died too early? What didn't die when it was supposed to? What attack missed?

4. If possible, provide a log. You can see your log in the Pet Battle tab of your chat box. You can pull that out, make it bigger, screenshot it. Better still, you can use the addon Battle Pet Log Keeper from Curseforge, and do /pblk and Save Battle when the battle you want to log is complete.

Almost any strat can fail to a really unlucky string of crits, and some difficult challenge strats like the Family ones may fail more than anyone likes, but the people behind this site do their best to promote well-working strats. Do your part. Provide useful information.

I replaced Chrominius with the Mechanical Pandaren Dragonling. Switch directly to it once Syd dies. Thunderbolt, Breath x2, Explode, and leveling pet gets full xp.

Gráinne

wrote on 2020-08-20 19:29:14

Shadowlands test: On the 9.0 PTR, this one still works. Chrominius' Howl still debuffs for an extra 100% damage.

the first time it failed was my fault ... i put whirlpool in the wrong spot ... theni got crit a couple times... but on the 4th try it worked. *much easier than some of the other strats.

This was the only one that actually got me through consistently.
I added an extra Cleansing rain at the beginning as it seemed to help.

Here's the TD Script:

ability(Cleansing Rain) [self.round = 1]
ability(Bubble:934) [enemy.round = 4]
ability(Tidal Wave:419)
change(#2) [self(#1).dead & !self(#2).played]

Won't let me edit for some reason. Anyways, forgot to add the ability number for Cleansing Rain.
