Board Thread:General Discussion/@comment-24839283-20190809185646

I keep being fascinated by how different everyone's experiences with certain levels in the game are based on what cats they have and how they've upgraded/talented them and just how they play. So I wanted to start a thread where we could share what levels we struggled the most on and what levels were surprisingly easy.

To start with, my lineup varies from level to level but usually includes Pizza Cat (40+2 with level 6 wave attack, level 8 defense buff, and level 3 attack buff as of now) Ramen cat, Majestic Zeus as a general damage dealer and Awakened Bahamut. I have Orbital Annihilator Ragnarok and Immortal Yukimura as my best ubers in most situations. I don't have any manic cats yet and right now I'm most of the way through Galapa-Goth. I didn't use any crazed cats until I think sea polluter.

I found almost everything from Stairway to Darkness through Dead End Night to be surprisingly easy, except Underground. Hated that one so much.

Pitfall Zone I remember beating fairly easily the first time but when I went back and tried to do it on 2 stars I forgot entirely what lineup I'd used and struggled horribly. The Great Escaper is an easy level though, fortunately. As is Saint Red Fox.

Marco Po Road was reputed to be awful but I struggled only moderately with it.

Gestalt, Decay was I think reputed to be super hard but I beat it on the second try iirc.

Lord of the Abyss was practically laughable as a boss, as has been every level with the sunfish and...ehh, everybody with an angel trait I guess? lol. Many of the bosses for SoL have been surprisingly easy to beat, with the previous levels actually being harder. (Berserkory is definitely Satan though.)

The level I've spent by far the most time trying to beat was Benzene Field with Darkweb as a close second (hellish because I had no wave blockers at the time).

I also inexplicably got horribly stuck on Renewed Conflict, and only was able to solve it when I TF'd Orbital Platform.

My least favorite enemies have overall been Rain D, Metal Doge and Berserkory--Rain D for having like 20 knockbacks and taking forever to kill when buffed, Metal Doge for being impossible to quickly and easily clear out and making heavy attacks and criticals miss their targets, and Berserkory for having SO MUCH FREAKING HEALTH WHY. The Bun Buns get an honorable mention for being so overused and appearing in groups.

Enemies I haven't had much trouble with have been Bore and its variants (just weaken him and meatshield heavily) and the variants of dark emperor nyandam. <(The red one is particularly pathetic because if you stack up enough cats that can knock him back, and there are multiple, he can be stopped from attacking at all.)
