Very sad about the xp nerf for low level pets during BFA pet battles. Not sure what Blizz's reasons are for this. Would be happy if someone could explain. I'm glad all else seems unchanged though it would be nice if the low level pet xp I used to get from Rydyr battle would be re instated (please take note Mr Blizz)
I have edited my strategies to inform about the xp nerf. One of my strategies had to be removed because Blizzard has in fact changed certain abilities of the BFA tamers. It is what it is. I can only suggest making sure you do do the WoD trainers weekly to level up (or at least when the pet battle event is up).
the reason is because you can fight these pet masters repeatedly for the achievement now, they don't want people just exploiting that to level pets. They could however have easily come up with a better solution then a nerf.
Since the battles are repeatable now they didn't want them to be grindable.It was nice for the 2 days of doing the family battle achievement but now I'm missing the xp again
If your Iron Starlette is P/P you can skip the Supercharge and finish off Eighty-Eight with a plain old Wind-Up Release. This freed me up to land some blows on Whiplash.
Fortunately I had a level 21 level pet or this would have been a disaster. Perhaps a life exchange with the sprite darter would help, or the other pets mentioned in the comments.
I replaced the sprite darter hatchling with a Nexus Whelpling, with x-2-2. Arcane Storm, then Mana Surge, and you're done -- last pet died much faster, and with less micromanaging.
Use Evanescence before switching the weather. The enemy is in its Cocoon and you are first. So you avoid 2 attacks and can savely switch weather one later.
Agreed. I like it more that way. Could someone post a script for it? (the full fight, please) Turn 10: Bring in Sprite Darter Hatchling Turn 11: Evanescence Turn 12: Moonfire Turn 13. Arcane Blast to finish Whiplash off. Use Moonfire if Whiplash casts Sandstorm.
I've been making a slight change that seems to work fine - when I swap in my trainee, I break Whiplash's cocoon with an attack, then swap to the Sprite Darter. This way Moonfire actually gets to do some damage, and there's a buffer against crits.
