finally did it. thank you SO much <3

I got really fed up when I couldnt find a single strategy without the S/S Screech so this is what worked for me:

2x Hermit Crab S/S 2/2/2
Violet Abyssal Eel H/H 1/2/2

Bubble
Fish Slap
Whirlpool
Fish Slap
Violet Abyssal Eel gets swaped in
Swallow You Whole
Life Exchange
Pass
Hermit Crab 2 gets swaped in
Fish Slap
Whirlpool
Bubble
Fish Slap
Fish Slap
Fish Slap
Hermit Crab dies
Hermit Crab 1 comes in
Fish Slap
Bubble if you want to be safe
Fish Slap
Shadeflicker should be dead

Worked for me two times in a row, so you should be fine!

Worked with Mongoose (S/S), Gulp Froglet, and Fen Crab (P/P).

An HP Gulp Froglet will also work for this strategy. (I actually didn't need the final Water Jet - probably because of that breed - Shadeflicker died to the bleed.)

Correct, HP Gulp works just fine (edited)

Did this with a lv 24 S/S Mongoose Pup and worked just the same.

Kangarooblue wrote on 2020-04-23 11:29:25

Mongoose 1156, Fleeting Frog 1359, Kelp Scuttler 1319, 3rd pet lower hp so 2nd pet gets pulled in first, folo above instructions with the same order, thnx GL

I don't know my pp from my hs from my ass but 3rd pet needs less health than 2nd pet, took me 5 wipes to figure this out

Gráinne

wrote on 2019-06-18 05:07:13

Well done for figuring it out!

Maybe that will give you a reason to start learning the difference between your HB and your SS. :)

Start by installing the addon Battle Pet Breed ID, which does the mental arithmetic for you.

Used a PP Fen crab in 3rd spot. Won easily on round 10, 1st try

Hairick wrote on 2017-10-08 17:28:04

Mongoose Pup (2,1,2) - s/s breed (1237,260,357)
Mud Jumper (2,2,2) - both its breeds work.
Hydraling (2,1,2)

1. Mongoose Pup > Screech.
* you will get hit and swapped and should end with a bit more than 700 hp. if you got a crit here - restart.
2. Mud Jumper > Tongue Lash > Pump > Swarm of Flies. frog gets swapped.
* your frog should just survive the swap, hp doesnt matter.
3. Hydraling > Whirlpool > Call Lightning > Tail Slap. pet will die before the Slap hits.
4. Mongoose Pup > Screech > Dive.
* after the Dive you should survive the swap with very little hp. if you got a crit and died - restart.
5. Mud Jumper > Pump. frog dies.
6. Mongoose Pup > Gnaw.
boss is dead.

This doesn't work with a S/S mongoose with less than the 1237 hp. Mine dies every time at the 2nd swap

Ameara wrote on 2017-11-13 07:26:01

Thank you so much for this, worked 1st time. Finished on the Pump, but was lucky with a nice crit.

Mongoose would not go first, shade would. Then you do not get 3 goes inbetween only 2 before his swop or hes in dodge so takes no dmg. Doesnt work...

Ilyana wrote on 2018-08-10 00:07:57

Used a P/B hydraling (2,1,2) instead of gulp froglet with P/P crab, so Hydraling gets swapped in second, use call lightning > whirlpool > tail slap, then follow strat as normal. PP crab doesn't always survive to get blood in the water off but when he does it works.

Grim wrote on 2018-10-21 12:07:39

This should get added to the strats. Anything that lets you replace gulp froglet...

Iburninate wrote on 2019-01-15 23:37:37

This works really well with Toothy! He has a bit more HP than the crab, plus he can Surge before getting swapped out. Thank you.

This is the first FF Argus fight that forced me to go out and catch a Wild Pet. Had to go out and get the S/S breed with 357. Most of the mongoose/otter have S/S breeds at 325.

Used Toothy as 3rd pet, threw in a surge at turn 7 instead of pass. Ez win

I did this and was still able to use a BB Gulp Froglet rather than a health breed, but it probably could've gone badly with a crit at the wrong time

Zashule#1765

wrote on 2018-07-29 12:16:27

Worked great for me on the second try with B/B Gulp Froglet. Only reason it didn't on the first is because Shadeflicker got back-to-back crits against my Muckbreath.
