Any Level 1+ Pet	Mutanis	NOTE lvl 1+ with patch 9.1.5 lvl pets with <238hp --> 50% XP except magic and mechanical pets they always get 100% XP	Level 1+ Script	2	5.0	N/A	34	69 1:09	9-10
Any Level 1+ Pet	Berendain	9.0.2 Update: Adjusted TD script to account for the questionable buffs to weather abilities, including Sunlight, Moonfire, and Cleansing Rain, which are all present in this fight. The fight is slightly less reliable now because Dignity heals for more with Cleansing Rain, but that will only matter if you get incredibly unlucky and don't crit during Hawk Eye. This strategy allows you to level any level one pet. It doesn't need to have a certain amount of health, it won't take damage at all. The leveling pet must be in the second slot for this to work. I recommend the Sprite Darter Hatchling if you have one, due to its higher health. You can use an S/S Nether Faerie Dragon, but you'll risk having to restart if Beauty and Conviction land too many crits for your Faerie Dragon to survive the third turn against Conviction.	Breed Level 1+ Script Staff Pick	2	4.3	N/A	25	117 1:57	19
Any Level 3+ Pet	morazor#2212	Tested with a PB and a PP Nexus Whelpling. Be sure to swap in leveling pet when Convinction will cast Dark Rebirth, swap back in your first pet and let it die, so that you can kill Convinction with your third pet and start fighting Dignity with your flyer already in. As a third pet, you can use anything that can reliably kill Dignity in 3 turns, to avoid him casting Tidal Wave. Any flyer with Alpha Strike and enough power should do. You can level up anything that can survive Sunlight on the first turn: any pet with > 158 HP or any critter, mechanical or magic pet. Script thanks to Tasmanien	Level 3+ Script	2	4.4	N/A	26	86 1:26	11+
Any Level 4+ Pet	Berendain	Important: This strategy works if your first pet is faster or slower than Conviction, but you need to use Evanescence if you're faster, and use Life Exchange if you're slower. I don't recommend using an S/B Nether Faerie Dragon, as it will be the same speed as Conviction on its first round, so it will be random which pet attacks first. Update: Added TD script. Times: 1:25 using a P/P Nether Faerie Dragon 1:41 using an H/P Nether Faerie Dragon 1:26 using an S/S Nether Faerie Dragon or Sprite Darter Hatchling	Level 4+ Script	2	4.6	N/A	7	85 1:25	11+

Any Level 1+ Pet	Askevin	This is my first attempt at creating a team that can level nearly any level 1 pet against this trainer. This strategy only works with S/S breed Nether Faerie Dragon (and therefor also Sprite Darter Hatchling). Unfortunately, the strategy isn't perfect. If the one Tidal Wave that hits your leveling pet crits, you will fail. There is also one or two other scenarios where a series of unlucky crits by either the opponent's pets or your pets can cause this strategy to fail. But I am still happy with it as it works most of the time and allows you to level nearly any level 1 pet.	Breed Level 1+ Script	2	5.0	N/A	3	160 2:40	21

Any Level 3+ Pet	morazor#2212	Tested with a SB Nether Faerie Dragon and a SS Sprite Darter Hatchling, but it should be doable with other breeds as well. Just be sure to swap in leveling pet when Convinction will cast Dark Rebirth, swap back in your first pet and let it die, so that you can kill Convinction with your third pet and start fighting Dignity with your flyer already in. As a third pet, you can use anything that can reliably kill Dignity in 3 turns, to avoid him casting Tidal Wave. Any flyer with Alpha Strike and enough power should do. You can level up anything that can survive Sunlight on the first turn: any pet with > 158 HP or any critter, mechanical or magic pet.	Level 3+	2	0.0	N/A	0	98 1:38	13
Any Level 3+ Pet	Astyrel	This is a modification of the strategy created by morazor#2212 (https://wow-petguide.com/?Strategy=4103). The key to this strategy is to kill Dignity in 3 rounds to prevent Tidal Wave killing a low-level carry pet. I've only tested it with an H/P NFD in slot 1 and a P/S Gilnean Raven in slot 3. Note that if you get "lucky" with Crits, it is possible for Conviction to die too soon (i.e. before your NFD or before casting Dark Conviction). If this happens, quit.	Breed Level 3+	2	0.0	N/A	0	110 1:50	13
Any Level 8+ Pet	ghostpets	Approximate fight time: 1:15 - 1:20 on 11 rounds. 1:11 - 1:16 using the TDScript as measured by the Pet Battle Log Keeper add-on (but occasionally there is a lag glitch when Beauty uses Quills, which delays the fight). This strategy is fairly quick and mostly consistent, but may fail in some edge cases with unlucky RNG number crunches (such as Conviction's health not hitting the 1-400 window that is optimal for the swap). Level pet requirement details: Level 1+ for mechanical, magic, critter, or 159+ health pets. Level 2+ needed for all other pets. Level 3+ or 238+ health needed to survive a critical hit of Sunlight. Pet breed substitutions: PP Nexus Whelpling and PS Zandalari Kneebiter are the most consistent breeds, but other breeds may work with reduced consistency: Nexus Whelpling - other breeds as well as Stormborne Whelpling may work. Zandalari Kneebiter - SS may work (PP and PB are too slow, and Zandalari Anklerender doesn't have Bloodfang).	Breed Level 8+ Script	2	0.0	N/A	0	92 1:32	12

Tested with a SB Nether Faerie Dragon and a SS Sprite Darter Hatchling, but it should be doable with other breeds as well. Just be sure to swap in leveling pet when Convinction will cast Dark Rebirth, swap back in your first pet and let it die, so that you can kill Convinction with your third pet and start fighting Dignity with your flyer already in.

As a third pet, you can use anything that can reliably kill Dignity in 3 turns, to avoid him casting Tidal Wave. Any flyer with Alpha Strike and enough power should do.

You can level up anything that can survive Sunlight on the first turn: any pet with > 158 HP or any critter, mechanical or magic pet.

I rewrote the script from scratch, ~~and added Gim_EU's idea of Dodge/Hawk Eye for the Tero's first actions against Conviction~~ (removed as testing proved it to be redundant).

I found that the order of moves HAS to change when using the S/S NFD under most circumstances. It must use Life Exchange (LE) on Conviction's second round unless the NFD receives a crit from Sunlight AND all 3 Quills land. This is because when Beauty loses his flying racial after dropping below 50%, the NFD goes first and kills Beauty, and Beauty will not have done enough damage to the NFD for LE to be of meaningful value. Therefore, you must allow Conviction to make up for that damage before using LE.

There were also discrepancies with the expected damage to the level pet and the hp threshold for Conviction to use Dark Rebirth. The high-end (crit) from Sunlight hits for 355 elemental, and Conviction's 25% threshold is 396.75hp. These things have been accounted for in my Rematch string, albeit that is only for the S/S NFD as I do not have any other breed levelled at the moment (I will add strings as and when I can).

I passed these scripts through the Pet Sim tool for 1000 battles for each available breed of NFD, with some very good success rates.

S/S - 942/1000 (94.2%)
P/P - 956/1000 (95.6%)
H/P - 996/1000 (99.6%) <-- Insanely high. I recommend using this breed
P/B - 975/1000 (97.5%)
S/B - 880/1000 (88%) <-- Boo! Rah! Hiss! Rubbish! Recommend you delete this pet from your journal and think about your life choices.

G'Morning, since Aulier was up today, I wanted to get some leveling done on my 25 toon. So, I sat here for an hour or so leveling up my toon and my lower level pets. I like to have 4 battles since by the time those are up then so is my Revive Pet Cooldown.

For this battle, I have been pretty successful each time. I wanted to say this strategy also works with the first slot Stormborne Whelpling (P/S), and Amber Moth (P/S) in the third slot.

Wasn't sure if anyone wanted to do extensive testing on it and perhaps modify to reflect this combo for the same TDscript/Rematch String.

Thank you to the OP for the strat, and for all those who have been testing these strats for the SL Prepatch 9.1. (edited)

If I may suggest a small change on your nice stragegy fight at turn 10 instead of using alpha strike you could use dodge, then Hawk eye and after that Alpha strike. That way you will surely kill the third pet at second turn or worst case the third for sure before it casts the wave to kill your levelling pet :) (edited)

After testing this method, I found out using a P/P breed on Nether Faerie Dragon means Conviction dies before he casts Dark Rebirth, meaning; You get no swaps, and Dignity gets off at least one Tidal Wave.
Using a S/S Sprite Darter Hatchling, it was too weak and died to Conviction if I used Life Exchange. But I did get it to work by completely ignoring Life Exchange.
This way, my sprite got to proc his Dark Rebirth cast, I got to swap, then I swapped back to Sprite Darter Hatchling and used him as cannon-fodder, otherwise the Teroclaw Hatchling could die. After that, just like you said, Alpha Strike until Dignity dies.

In other words:
S/S Sprite Darter Hatchling
Level pet (>158 hp or Magical/Mechanical)
H/P Teroclaw Hatchling

quit [self(#1).active & enemy(#2).dead]
quit [self(#2).dead]
change(#3) [self(#1).dead & enemy(#2).active]
change(#1) [self(#2).active & enemy.aura(Dark Rebirth:795).exists]
change(#2) [enemy(#2).hp<350 & enemy.ability(Dark Rebirth:794).usable]

Since Sprite can get critted to death (pretty rarely, but it can), I just added another line to the macro to quit if Sprite dies before Dark Rebirth

quit [self(#1).active & enemy(#2).dead]
quit [self(#1).dead & enemy(#2).hp>380]
quit [self(#2).dead]
change(#3) [self(#1).dead & enemy(#2).active]

Any Level 1+ Pet	Berendain	9.0.2 Update: Adjusted TD script to account for the questionable buffs to weather abilities, including Sunlight, Moonfire, and Cleansing Rain, which are all present in this fight. The fight is slightly less reliable now because Dignity heals for more with Cleansing Rain, but that will only matter if you get incredibly unlucky and don't crit during Hawk Eye. This strategy allows you to level any level one pet. It doesn't need to have a certain amount of health, it won't take damage at all. The leveling pet must be in the second slot for this to work. I recommend the Sprite Darter Hatchling if you have one, due to its higher health. You can use an S/S Nether Faerie Dragon, but you'll risk having to restart if Beauty and Conviction land too many crits for your Faerie Dragon to survive the third turn against Conviction.

Any Level 3+ Pet	morazor#2212	Tested with a PB and a PP Nexus Whelpling. Be sure to swap in leveling pet when Convinction will cast Dark Rebirth, swap back in your first pet and let it die, so that you can kill Convinction with your third pet and start fighting Dignity with your flyer already in. As a third pet, you can use anything that can reliably kill Dignity in 3 turns, to avoid him casting Tidal Wave. Any flyer with Alpha Strike and enough power should do. You can level up anything that can survive Sunlight on the first turn: any pet with > 158 HP or any critter, mechanical or magic pet.

Any Level 4+ Pet	Berendain	Important: This strategy works if your first pet is faster or slower than Conviction, but you need to use Evanescence if you're faster, and use Life Exchange if you're slower. I don't recommend using an S/B Nether Faerie Dragon, as it will be the same speed as Conviction on its first round, so it will be random which pet attacks first. Update: Added TD script.

Any Level 1+ Pet	Askevin	This is my first attempt at creating a team that can level nearly any level 1 pet against this trainer. This strategy only works with S/S breed Nether Faerie Dragon (and therefor also Sprite Darter Hatchling). Unfortunately, the strategy isn't perfect. If the one Tidal Wave that hits your leveling pet crits, you will fail. There is also one or two other scenarios where a series of unlucky crits by either the opponent's pets or your pets can cause this strategy to fail. But I am still happy with it as it works most of the time and allows you to level nearly any level 1 pet.	Breed Level 1+ Script	2	5.0	N/A	3	160 2:40	21

Any Level 3+ Pet	morazor#2212	Tested with a SB Nether Faerie Dragon and a SS Sprite Darter Hatchling, but it should be doable with other breeds as well. Just be sure to swap in leveling pet when Convinction will cast Dark Rebirth, swap back in your first pet and let it die, so that you can kill Convinction with your third pet and start fighting Dignity with your flyer already in. As a third pet, you can use anything that can reliably kill Dignity in 3 turns, to avoid him casting Tidal Wave. Any flyer with Alpha Strike and enough power should do. You can level up anything that can survive Sunlight on the first turn: any pet with > 158 HP or any critter, mechanical or magic pet.	Level 3+	2	0.0	N/A	0	98 1:38	13
Any Level 3+ Pet	Astyrel	This is a modification of the strategy created by morazor#2212 (https://wow-petguide.com/?Strategy=4103). The key to this strategy is to kill Dignity in 3 rounds to prevent Tidal Wave killing a low-level carry pet. I've only tested it with an H/P NFD in slot 1 and a P/S Gilnean Raven in slot 3. Note that if you get "lucky" with Crits, it is possible for Conviction to die too soon (i.e. before your NFD or before casting Dark Conviction). If this happens, quit.

Any Level 8+ Pet	ghostpets	Approximate fight time: 1:15 - 1:20 on 11 rounds. 1:11 - 1:16 using the TDScript as measured by the Pet Battle Log Keeper add-on (but occasionally there is a lag glitch when Beauty uses Quills, which delays the fight). This strategy is fairly quick and mostly consistent, but may fail in some edge cases with unlucky RNG number crunches (such as Conviction's health not hitting the 1-400 window that is optimal for the swap). Level pet requirement details: Level 1+ for mechanical, magic, critter, or 159+ health pets. Level 2+ needed for all other pets. Level 3+ or 238+ health needed to survive a critical hit of Sunlight. Pet breed substitutions: PP Nexus Whelpling and PS Zandalari Kneebiter are the most consistent breeds, but other breeds may work with reduced consistency: Nexus Whelpling - other breeds as well as Stormborne Whelpling may work. Zandalari Kneebiter - SS may work (PP and PB are too slow, and Zandalari Anklerender doesn't have Bloodfang).	Breed Level 8+ Script	2	0.0	N/A	0	92 1:32	12
