If it was not already known, you can sub in the [pet]Darkmoon Tonk[/pet] instead of the [pet]Menagerie Custodian[/pet]

I just used the three pets I posted last time, to at least get through the fight once. Next time, though....

Thanks, Rusti, for sharing!

Daro when you are on again whisper me. you can borrow mine to level yours up then use it to take over!
Anytime one of these strats calls for a tradeable pet that you don't have leveled yet, give me a shout and if I have it you are more than welcome to borrow it to level yours.

Have I told you lately how awesome you are? Thanks so much!

ok, so I was goofing around, and I took Elfuego's plan and subbed in the [pet]Darkmoon Zeppelin[/pet] (1/2/1) instead of the [pet]Menagerie Custodian[/pet] or the [pet]Darkmoon Tonk[/pet]. Your carry pet will not take any damage so you can use a level 1 pet.

The fight goes at follows

Lil'Bling

Extra Plating
Rocket Launch (1 of 2)
Inflation
Rocket Launch (2 of 2)
--Brutus dies
Inflation
--lil' Bling dies bring in the Darkmoon Zeppelin
Thunderbolt
Missile (till Rukus is < 618 HP but not dead, so one or two depending on the RNG)
Explode

And your carry is leveled by the magic of nuked pork chops

Awesome. In two weeks when this duo is back I'll have to give it a try. I have so many pets to get to 25 yet.

Yes that was my hat-tip to you and all your work.

If anyone get time please test my strat above and let me know if it works, thanks!

Ami -- so far it has worked very nicely. No RNG issues yet and it has been useful in the dailies. I would add the bracketed language.

Extra Plating
Rocket Launch (1 of 2)
Inflation
[Bling dies the first time]
Rocket Launch (2 of 2)

It's almost depressing how easy/fast this is with a P/P and P/S Iron Starlette.

vs Brutus
Open with P/P > Wind-up > Supercharge > Wind-up (will go into rez here) Brutus dies

vs Rukus
Pass (wont matter, he bloodfangs you and you die) > swap in carry > swap in P/S
Wind-up > Supercharge > Wind-up (Rukus dies)

The only thing that can cause this to fail is Brutus doing a high horn gore + a winter spirit and 1 of them crits. Which is a fail condition, but it will happen in the 1st 3 turns, so it's a fast reset. Once Brutus is dead there is no condition where you can lose. And it will take exactly 8 rounds every time.

Using double pets, which many may not have, but wanted to put it in the thread (I don't think I saw it broken down yet).

Thanks Ami. I am not a huge fan of Turret strats but do like Explode ones so glad to see you posted. This worked like a charm for me. I boosted up a bunch of level 1's. The only issue I had was the Zeppelin occasionally critting and killing the last boar so I got no XP. But it is a pretty fast strat so it wasn't too bad.

Thanks for the feedback everyone I have seen a few RNG issues (like Bing being critted and invoking failsafe too soon) but all and all it seems to be working help.

I did your strat for a while as well, Ami, and it worked very well - what may be worth doing is with the zepp do missile first and then if it crits pass then thunderbolt > explode. Might remove that "good" crit issue from the sequence. I couldn't get a missile crit to happen once I switched the order, though, so I cannot prove it will get him in explode range before he failsafes you. nothing much can be done for bling getting failsafed early, but it was a pretty rare case. definitely a good fast strat.
